摘要:
A dental system includes a light source, a power supply that adjusts a quantity of light produced by the light source, a measuring device that measures a quantity of light received from the light source, an input, through which user data, including a desired quantity of light, can be entered, and a controller which, together with the measuring device, forms at least part of a feedback loop. The controller receives the user data and communicates with the measuring device and the power supply so that the power supply adjusts a quantity of light emitted by the light source. As a result, the quantity of light received from the light source becomes substantially equal to the desired quantity of light.

The present invention is a device that attaches to a light source to transmit and distribute light energy to the surface or internal chamber of a tooth for the purpose of photo-initiation of light curing resins and dental tooth whitening. More particularly, the invention may be used with a single or multiple Light Emitting Diode(s) to more efficiently collect and transmit the light energy emitted by the LED(s) resulting in increased total energy, uniform illumination, and collimation of the light energy delivered to the tooth.

Enterprise methods and systems are provided in which decision types are defined with attributes that can be stored as decision objects that assist in storing and executing decisions. The methods and systems include methods for logically linking decision processes based on commonality of decision variables across different aspects of an enterprise.
摘要:
The present invention relates generally to a device that attaches to one or more Light Emitting Diode (LED) light source(s) to transmit and distribute light energy simultaneously across the arches of upper and lower teeth for dental tooth whitening and photo initiation of light curing resins while at the same time retaining the benefits of the light source(s) to be used for individual tooth whitening and curing.

The methodology described herein arranges a collection of positive return streams or market “betas” where a diversified set of these return streams are available at a lower cost. The methodology combines known risk premiums and exotic betas to arrive at its results. For example, such a method of identifying eligible investments for inclusion in an investment fund can include selecting a first investment and a second investment; determining whether the first investment and the second investment provide positive, historical excess return streams; assessing a correlation between the first investment and the second correlation; and identifying a representative index and vehicle for the first and second investments if the assessed correlation is at or below a predetermined low correlation level.

A mast includes a base section, an outer telescopic section and an inner telescopic section which are raised and lowered by a pair of main lift cylinders. A fork carriage is slidably mounted to the inner telescopic section and is raised and lowered thereon by a pair of free lift cylinders. The mast elements are arranged to form two mast columns which produce minimum obstruction to the truck operator's field of view when looking forward through the mast.

A method is provided for forming an alignment layer for a liquid crystal cell that is made from a liquid crystal film that has been irradiated with light. The method includes the steps of disposing a liquid crystal film on a substrate and then irradiating the liquid crystal film with light. Also, a liquid crystal display that includes an alignment layer that is a liquid crystal film that has been irradiated with light.

A fingernail pick that is removably attachable to a user's fingernail having a primary string contacting portion, an anchor portion which is shaped to fit comfortably and unobtrusively on top of the fingernail, and a mounting portion. The fingernail pick is held in place either by an adhesive, friction between a slot and a cantilevered portion of fingernail, or by a combination of the two. The fingernail pick may be formed in various sizes and shapes or available in custom sizes and shapes for particular users.

A suture pulley assembly includes a pulley wheel that is rotatably attached to an adjustable tension applicator used in joint repair surgery (e.g., to repair an ACL) so as to equalize the tensile load that is applied to each side of a looped suture by the adjustable tension applicator. The pulley wheel includes a pair of pulley plates that define a pulley space therebetween into which a looped suture is placed and that are oppositely-biased in order to spread apart and contract in response to differences in size of the looped suture as a result of, e.g., the existence of a knot or half knot. The pulley wheel is rotatably attached to the tension applicator by a post. A spring biases one of the suture pulley plates toward the other in a manner that allows for the aforementioned expansion of the pulley space.
