Abstract:
A garnish tray for whole garnish includes a plurality of wells having an opening at one end defined by sidewalls extending from a top surface to a bottom surface to define a well depth; and a plurality of channels extending between adjacent wells, wherein the plurality of channels extend from the top surface to a channel depth equal to or less than the well depth. Also disclosed are processes for serving the whole garnish.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for automatically performing a high accuracy gas refill in a laser chamber of a two chamber gas discharge laser such as an excimer laser are disclosed. Based upon a target pressure and halogen concentration that is either predetermined or entered by a user, and with no further user action, a non-halogen containing gas is added to the chamber to a first pressure, followed by the addition of halogen containing gas to a second pressure which is greater than a target pressure for the chamber, such that the halogen content in the gas at the second pressure is at a desired concentration. The gas in the chamber is bled until the pressure drops to the target pressure. The amount of non-halogen containing gas added is estimated automatically, and the amount of halogen containing gas is measured so that the desired concentration is obtained, taking into account both temperature and any gas remaining in the fill pipes from prior laser operation.
Abstract:
A graft and method of using a graft are described that should decrease the incidence of abnormal placentation and uterine rupture that result from cesarean section and restore the anatomic integrity of the uterus at a hysterotomy surgical site, while not disturbing the involution of the postpartum uterus.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device comprising interface logic for transmitting data bursts across an interface. The interface logic is arranged to transmit bursts of data across the interface such that the start of a burst of data is substantially aligned with a symbol interval (SI) boundary. The interface logic is further arranged to apply an offset to the SI boundary at the start of the burst of data.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device comprising an interface logic module for transmitting data frames across an interface, and controller logic module arranged to control a rate at which the interface logic transmits data across the interface. Upon receipt of data frames to transmit across the interface, the controller logic module is arranged to determine a sequence of data rates with which to transmit sequential data frames across the interface, and to configure the transmission of the data frames across the interface according to the determined data rate sequence. The selection of these data rates will be dependent on specific critical RF frequencies where EMI impacts have to be minimized.
Abstract:
A manually operated product dispenser includes a user interface which operates via a linkage mechanism on a dispensing mechanism. The linkage mechanism transfers displacement from the user interface to the dispensing mechanism but incorporates resilient means permitting the user interface to be operated to the full extent permitted by the interface, but transmitting to the dispensing mechanism only as much of the operation of the interface required to permit the dispenser mechanism to dispense a predetermined amount of product.
Abstract:
A hard top removal/placement device permits one person to safely and easily remove or place a hard top off/on a vehicle anywhere the vehicle is located and without requiring additional people for its operation. The device is portable, so it can be carried with the user, in the vehicle, and used anywhere—in a parking lot, at a campsite, at the beach, at the user's home, or the like. The device is compact and lightweight and does not need a structure to be mounted to in order for it to be used. The device can simply attach to their trailer hitch receiver and be ready to use in minutes.
Abstract:
A multiple input multiple output (MIMO) calibration device (360) for calibrating a phase relationship between at least two signals present on at least two radio frequency (RF) paths coupling a wireless communication unit and the MIMO calibration device (360) is described. The MIMO calibration device (360) is operably coupleable via at least two RF paths between a wireless communication unit and an antenna arrangement (219). The calibration device (360) comprises a processing module (490) configured to: process a coupled amount of at least one first signal from a first path operably coupleable to a first polarisation of the antenna arrangement (219) to determine at least one pilot signal from said at least one first signal; process a coupled amount of at least one second signal from a second path operably coupleable to at least one second polarisation feed of antenna arrangement (219), different to the first polarisation, to determine the at least one pilot signal from said at least one second signal; and determine a first phase relationship of the same pilot signal between the at least two RF paths.
