Abstract: A suspension assembly for mechanically retaining a first article by bracing it against a second article includes a spherical or spheroid object located between first and second articles. A first set of at least three rounded surfaces is mechanically braced between the spherical or spheroid object and the first article, with each of such surfaces being in contact with the spheroid object at a single point; and a second set of at least three rounded surfaces mechanically is braced between the spherical or spheroid object and the second article, with each of said surfaces being in contact with the spherical or spheroid object at a single point.

Abstract: The present invention is a solid cooling fluid treatment medium, usually but not always in bead form, suitable to be brought into contact with coolants to remediate and to condition them. A key feature of the medium, typically a polymeric resin, is the presence of relatively very large pores, which are able to capture and remove ultrafine coolant contaminants and breakdown products (such as colloids, soot, coke, organics, scale or other small semi-soluble or insoluble particles). Resins and adsorbents of the prior art have proven unable to remove ultrafine contaminants like these that have a deleterious impact on industrial equipment performance and reliability. The mean pore size diameter of the medium is between about 1,500 Å and 100,000 Å and, more preferably, in the range of about 1,500 Å to about 80,000 Å.

Abstract: A crash load absorption structure for a motor vehicle. The structure includes a compressible load absorbing structure. The compressible load absorbing structure includes a front portion and a rear portion. The front portion and the rear portion are arranged to compress under a crash load along a generally longitudinal direction. The compressible load absorbing structure also includes a structural joint located within the compressible load absorbing structure, the joint is between at least two structural members. A load transfer element is configured to promote breaking of the structural joint during a vehicle crash.

Abstract: An apparatus for shimming the magnetic field generated by a magnet arrangement of a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system, has a number of shim devices of substantially similar cross-sectional dimensions, at least some of the shim devices exhibiting differing ferromagnetic characteristics. A structure body has an elongate, tubular channel cross-sectionally dimensioned to serially receive the shim devices in a predetermined sequence to provide a required distribution of the ferromagnetic characteristics in relation to said magnetic field, the channel being of length sufficient to accommodate the shim devices serially in said predetermined sequence. The shim devices are presented at the entrance of the channel in the sequence, and are forced into the channel in the sequence by pressurized fluid directed toward the entrance.

Abstract: A system provides via multiple communications channels flexible nutritional counseling that encourages users to adhere to a sensible diet. The system may recommend a compliant meal having nutritional content that is within certain dietary parameters applicable to the user. However, the system may also recommend a non-compliant meal having nutritional content that is not within the dietary parameters, but is a sensible choice in view of constraints that make it impossible or infeasible to select a compliant meal. Thus, the system may recommend a meal that is not an optimal selection, but that is a best selection from among a set of non-compliant options. Accordingly, the user has flexibility to deviate from optimal choices as practically necessary or desirable. The user confirms meals actually consumed, and the system can account for an indulgence when recommending a next meal, and/or send a motivational message to the user encouraging compliant behavior.

Abstract translation: 系统通过多种通信渠道提供灵活的营养咨询，鼓励用户遵守明智的饮食习惯。 该系统可以推荐具有适用于用户的某些饮食参数内的营养成分的顺应性膳食。 然而，该系统还可以推荐具有不在饮食参数范围内的营养成分的不合规膳食，但是鉴于使其不可能或不可行选择合适膳食的约束是合理的选择。 因此，系统可以推荐不是最佳选择的膳食，但是这是一组不合规选项中的最佳选择。 因此，用户具有实际需要或期望的偏离最佳选择的灵活性。 用户确认实际消费的餐点，并且系统可以在推荐下一顿饭时考虑到放纵，和/或向用户发送鼓励符合行为的动机消息。
