摘要:
A boom breakaway assembly for a spray boom used by a vehicle. The boom breakaway assembly includes a reciprocating system having a first position and a second position, a retention system, and a bias system. In the first position, the bias system applies a maximum effective bias rate to the reciprocating system and the retention system applies a holding force upon the spray boom to maintain the spray boom in a desired outward position. In the second position, the bias system applies a minimal effective bias rate to the reciprocating system and the retention system reduces or disengages the holding force upon the spray boom, thereby allowing the spray boom to move from the outward position to a breakaway position when the spray boom encounters an obstacle. The bias system returns the reciprocating system to the first position once the spray boom clears the obstacle.
摘要:
A system and method for generating and/or updating a personal/individual health record. Inputs of data to the system may come from diverse sources including, but not limited to, patient questionnaires, insurance company (or other payor) claims data, hospitals, clinics and other institutional providers, and individual physicians and physicians' offices.

摘要:
Capsaicin receptor agonists are provided. Such compounds are ligands that may be used to modulate VR1 activity in vivo or in vitro, and are particularly useful in the treatment of conditions responsive to capsaicin receptor activation in humans, domesticated companion animals and livestock animals. Pharmaceutical compositions and methods for using them to treat such disorders are provided, as are methods for using such ligands for receptor localization studies.
摘要:
A technique for dynamically determining the occurrence of a high impedance fault (HIF) independent of load. An HIF algorithm provides the energy value for a given number of samples of the input signal that is phase (load) currents and/or neutral (residual) current. The input signal energy value is multiplied by a factor that ranges from about 110% to about 300% to calculate a threshold energy value and the result of that calculation is stored in a buffer. A HIF detection signal is generated when the energy value determined for samples of the input signal that are the same in number as the given number of samples and taken after the given number of samples is greater than an energy value derived from a predetermined number of the calculated threshold energy values.
摘要:
Aryl-substituted piperazine derivatives are provided. Such compounds may be used to modulate MCH receptor activity in vivo or in vitro, and are particularly useful in the treatment of a variety of metabolic, feeding and sexual disorders in humans, domesticated companion animals and livestock animals. Pharmaceutical compositions and methods for treating such disorders are provided, as are methods for using such ligands for detecting MCH receptors (e.g., receptor localization studies).
摘要:
An improved system and method for providing emergency lighting and directional exit indication in the event of power outage and/or smoke/fire events. The system provides a lighted pathway consisting of discrete points of light, some of which strobe or trace toward the exits and others of which burn steadily for general area emergency lighting. The method consists of detecting the emergency condition and illuminating the appropriate emergency lighting.

摘要:
A stage assembly (10) for moving a device (26) along an X axis and a Y axis includes a stage base (12), a device table (16), a stage mover assembly (18), a measurement system (21), and a control system (22). The stage mover assembly (18) includes a pair X guide movers (82) (84) and a Y table mover (87). The measurement system (21) includes a first X system (100) and a second X system (102). The control system (22) receives the position signals from the measurement system (21) and directs current to the X movers (82) (84) to move the device table along the X axis. The control system (22) can be designed to not skip any servo cycles during switching of position signals.
