A double-sided blanket clip including a base member having a first surface disposed opposite a second surface. The clip further including a first actuating element and a second actuating element. The clip further including a first actuating member coupled on the first surface of the base member via the first actuating element so as to form a first clipping element having a first securing end, and a second actuating member coupled on the second surface of the base member via the second actuating element to as to form a second clipping element having a second securing end. Further, each of the first and second clipping elements being configured to be actuated between a release position and a securing position.
摘要:
An apparatus including a first electrode; a second electrode; a nano-scale channel between the first electrode and the second electrode wherein the nano-scale channel has a first state in which an electrical impedance of the nano-scale channel is relatively high and a second state in which the electrical impedance of the nano-scale channel is relatively low; dielectric adjacent the nano-scale channel; and a gate electrode adjacent the dielectric configured to control a threshold number of quanta of stimulus, wherein the nano-scale channel is configured to switch between the first state and the second state in response to an application of a quantum of stimulus above the threshold number of quanta of stimulus.

A tubing head adapter which operates to provide a supplemental sealing barrier for a tubing head while maintaining access to the interior of the tubing head. The adapter includes an annular body adapted to be secured in fixed relation to the tubing head and a dummy hanger adapted to be matedly inserted into the annular body. The dummy hanger includes an annular sleeve insert and a removable axial plug disposed within the annular sleeve insert. A plurality of extendable and retractable locking pins secure the dummy hanger in place.

A swaddle blanket and mattress attachment device. The swaddle blanket includes a top end and a bottom end with a pocket disposed at the bottom end and configured to enclose an infants legs. A first side of the blanket is configured to wrap over the infant in one direction and a second side of the blanket is configured to wrap over the infant and the first side in the other direction. A fastener is disposed on the second side of the blanket and is configured to secure the second side in place over the first side. At least one attachment strap is secured to the swaddle blanket. When the blanket is in an attachment position the attachment strap extends away from the swaddle blanket. The attachment strap including a first mating pair fastener. The mattress attachment device is configured to be secured to a sleeping surface. The mattress attachment device includes at least one second mating pair fastener that is securable to the first mating pair fastener.

An air-bag arrangement is disclosed, which preferably takes the form of an inflatable curtain. The arrangement comprises a single inflatable element (2) and a gas generator (10), which is configured to inflate the inflatable element (2). The inflatable element (2) defines at least two inflatable chambers (5,6). A gas-supply duct (11) is provided which has an end outlet aperture (19) formed through an end wall 18 of the gas-supply duct (11) so as to have a diameter smaller than the bore of the gas-supply duct (11). The gas-supply duct (11) also has at least one side outlet aperture (20) formed through the side wall of the gas-supply duct (11) at a position generally adjacent the end outlet aperture (19). The side outlet aperture (20) is configured to direct gas out of the gas-supply duct (11) in a direction substantially orthogonal to the direction of gas directed to the end outlet aperture (19). The gas-supply duct (11) is arranged so that gas exiting through the end outlet aperture (19) is directed to one of the chambers (5), whilst gas exiting through the side outlet aperture (20) is directed to the other chamber (6).
摘要:
This invention provides an image display system of the type which may be used to present video images to occupants of a vehicle (10), such as a subway train, by briefly illuminating individual images provided on display boards (14) in a tunnel or the like, in sequence, so that occupants of the vehicle (10) observe a motion picture. One aspect of the invention provides a control unit for an image display system including a series of images (16) positioned along the path of a vehicle and lighting for briefly illuminating individual images and a detector (20) arranged to output repeated measurements of the speed of a passing vehicle. The control unit comprises a processing means including a first system arranged to process the repeated speed measurements to produce an instantaneous estimate of the position of the vehicle along the vehicle path, and a second system arranged to derive the illumination timings from the instantaneous estimate of the position of the vehicle.
摘要:
A method and device for image processing to determine image characteristics includes operations of segmenting of first images to create segmentation contours corresponding to the first images; and registering the segmented first images to second images. Further, operations of transferring the segmentation contours from the first images to second images; and fitting the transferred segmentation contours in the second images are performed.
摘要:
The invention provides methods and compositions for treatment of bacterial infections. Methods of the invention include administration of dalbavancin for treatment of a bacterial infection, in particular an uncomplicated Gram-positive bacterial infection of skin and soft tissue. Dosing regimes include once weekly administration of dalbavancin, which often remains at therapeutic levels in the bloodstream for at least one week, providing prolonged therapeutic action against a bacterial infection.

An insulated cooler having a narrower upper portion and a wider lower portion with a ledge therebetween is transformed into an elegant food dispensing station. A shelf that surrounds the cooler at its upper portion is formed from a horizontal panel with an aperture great enough to pass the upper portion of the cooler and rest on the ledge. The shelf may be provided with features for holding items on its surface such as glasses. It may have features for mounting a skirt that conceals the lower portion of the cooler. The assembly may include a rolling cart that is also concealed by the skirt to provide a complete self-contained dispensing station for parties.
摘要:
A pile is provided for installing poles in loose soils such as marshes, muskegs or granular soils. The pile is hollow, cylindrical and open-ended. It uses a serrated bottom end for cutting through the ground, and has retainment slots at its top end for slidably engaging a spinner bar for rotating the pile. The pile may be used with an auger to enhance ground penetration during installation of the pile. The pile is modularly extendible in lengths to thirty feet or more. The pile is twisted into the ground using high-torque hydraulically driven digger motors mounted on commercially available construction equipment.
