Abstract:
A stent graft with pins, a stent graft including a tubular graft having a perimeter and a central axis; at least one stent ring operably connected about the perimeter, the stent ring having a plurality of struts connected in a sinusoidal pattern, at least one of the plurality of struts having a hole; and a pin having a free end. The pin is secured in the hole with the free end directed outwardly from the central axis.
Abstract:
A jointing method for the support structure of a FED component is provided for fixing the relative position between the support structure and the electrode plates; first of all, a bearing plate is provided, on which a plurality of grooves spaced in parallel are, in advance, arranged for placing support structures thereon; furthermore, there is a metal jointing layer arranged respectively on the substrates of cathode and anode for aligning and positioning the substrates with respect to the bearing plate having a plurality of support structures, then the plural support structures are pressed together with the metal jointing layer; finally, both the jointed substrates and the bearing plates are simultaneously sent into a vacuum furnace for processing a high temperature sinter procedure, whereby the support structures and the substrates are formed into an eutectic structure through the metal jointing layers; therefore, the relative position between the support structures and substrates is fixed.
Abstract:
A trash can with a lid can include a lock for the lid. The lock can include a latch that cooperates with the trash container body to lock the lid over the opening of the body. The latch can be configured to slide with respect to the edge of the opening of the body from an unlocked position to a locked position. This latch can be integrated into, built into or self contained in the lid. The trash can can also include a pedal actuator for opening the lid. The trash can can also include a damping mechanism mounted to the body of the trash can with a mounting plate. The mounting plate can be made from a material that is harder than the material used for the body of the trash can. Additionally, the trash can can have wheels.
Abstract:
An electric soap dispenser that includes sensors for detecting the presence of an object. The dispenser can be configured to dispense an amount of liquid soap, for example, upon detecting the presence of an object. The dispenser can include various features for enhancing the performance thereof. For example, the dispenser can include an additional button for manual operation of the pump. Additionally, the dispenser can detect the voltage of a power supply and compensate for a drop in voltage of the power supply so as to produce more uniform dispensations of the liquid product.
