Abstract: A method, apparatus, and article for solving the year 2000 problem involves limited modifications in the data definition portions of the source code and compiler or interpreter support for processing the modified source code. Fields in the source code that contain a year or date values are identified and, for each such field, the user selects an appropriate technique (for example, expansion, compression or windowing). The user modifies the data definition for each identified field, by adding new attributes to request the selected technique. The user then compiles or interprets the program and resolves any ambiguous references to the variables whose definitions were modified. This procedure is applied, module by module, and each processed module is merged into production, after testing, by using a compiler option to disable the use of the new attributes. A compiler or interpreter option provides for the generation of debugger hooks for each statement that has been affected by modified declarations, which may be used with a suitably equipped debugger or other run-time analysis tool.

Abstract translation: 用于解决2000年问题的方法，装置和文章涉及到源代码和编译器的数据定义部分的有限修改，或用于处理修改的源代码的解释器支持。 识别源代码中包含年或日期值的字段，并且对于每个这样的字段，用户选择适当的技术（例如，扩展，压缩或窗口化）。 用户通过添加新属性来请求所选择的技术来修改每个标识字段的数据定义。 然后，用户对程序进行编译或解释，并解析对定义进行了修改的变量的任何模糊引用。 该过程逐个应用，并且每个处理后的模块被合并到生产中，经过测试，通过使用编译器选项来禁用新属性的使用。 编译器或解释器选项为每个已被修改的声明影响的语句生成调试器钩子，这可以与适当装备的调试器或其他运行时分析工具一起使用。

Abstract: Gyroscopic apparatus in which the rotor is elastically-connected to its drive, whereby deflection of the rotor bends the connection and thus sets up a deflection torque which acts upon the rotor. The connection of the rotor to the drive also includes masses carried by springs. When the rotor deflects, these masses oscillate in directions parallel to the driving axis, and when the rotor is spinning at a certain (tuning) speed the sum of the oscillating forces exerted upon the rotor by the individual moving masses will be a steady quantity which may be made equal and opposite to the deflection torque. The apparatus may thus behave like a "free rotor" gyroscope.

Abstract translation: 陀螺仪装置，其中转子与其驱动器弹性连接，由此转子的偏转弯曲连接，从而设置作用在转子上的偏转扭矩。 转子与驱动器的连接也包括由弹簧承载的质量。 当转子偏转时，这些质量在平行于驱动轴线的方向上振荡，并且当转子以一定（调谐）速度旋转时，各个移动质量作用在转子上的振荡力的总和将是稳定的量 可以与偏转扭矩相等并相反。 因此，该装置可以像“自由转子”陀螺仪那样运行。

Abstract: An air circulation and/or purification device for recirculating air and/or removing contaminants from the air which includes a housing having a top with an opening for air intake and a bottom, a fan contained within the housing, and a plurality of air output vents contained within multiple sides of the housing near the bottom of the housing. The bottom of the housing may include a conical shaped portion extending inward from the bottom of the housing or other structures to assist in expelling air from the housing in at least two different directions. The device may also include one or more filters designed to capture and filter out different types of contaminants.

Abstract: A surgical device is provided, the surgical device including a first driver for performing a first movement function; a second driver for performing a second movement function; a first rotatable drive shaft configured, upon actuation, to cause selective engagement of one of the first and second drivers with a second rotatable drive shaft, wherein the second rotatable drive shaft is configured to drive the selectively engaged one of the first and second drivers. Third and fourth drivers may also be included. The drivers may function to rotate a shaft portion of the surgical device relative to, and about the longitudinal axis of, a handle; move a jaw portion relative to the shaft portion; move a first jaw relative to a second jaw; and/or move a surgical member within the second jaw.

Abstract: A surgical device is provided that includes a jaw portion, having a first jaw in opposed correspondence with a second jaw, the second jaw including a surgical member. The surgical device may include a shaft portion coupled to a proximal end of the jaw portion and at least one motor configured to rotate the jaw portion relative to the shaft portion, to move the jaw portion relative to the shaft portion, move the first jaw relative to the second jaw and move the surgical member within the second jaw. The surgical member may be prevented from moving within the second jaw unless the first jaw is in a closed position relative to the second jaw. Advantageously, the surgical member may be, e.g., a cutting element and/or a stapling element, disposed within one of the jaws.
