Abstract:
A male connector is capable of magnetically attracting a female connector. The female connector includes a first end surface and a second end surface. The male connector includes a first telescoping pin and a second telescoping pin. The first telescoping pin and the second telescoping pin are capable of contacting the first end surface and the second end surface, to make an electrical connection between the male connector and the female connector.
Abstract:
Compositions and methods for modulating the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of rapid acting injectable insulin formulations are described herein. In the preferred embodiment, the formulations are administered via subcutaneous injection. The formulations contain insulin in combination with a zinc chelator such as ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (“EDTA”) and a dissolution/stabilization agent, and optionally additional excipients. Calcium disodium EDTA is less likely to remove calcium from the body, and typically has less pain on injection in the subcutaneous tissue. Modulating the type and quantity of EDTA can change the insulin absorption profile. Increasing the quantity of citrate can further enhance absorption and chemically stabilize the formulation. In the preferred embodiment, the formulation contains human insulin, calcium disodium EDTA and a dissolution/stabilization agent such as citric acid or sodium citrate. These formulations are rapidly absorbed into the blood stream when administered by subcutaneous injection.
Abstract:
An application management system and method controls one or more applications according to commands generated by one or more assigned peripherals. The application management system assigns a first peripheral to a first application and assigns a second peripheral to a second application. The application management system stores the commands generated by the first peripheral into a first buffering region and storing the commands generated by the second peripheral into a second buffering region. The application management system distributes for execution the stored commands according to the assignments of applications to peripherals.
Abstract:
An electrical connector includes an insulating housing which has a base. Each side surface of the base protrudes outward to form a fixing block and a guiding block. A receiving groove is formed between the fixing block and the guiding block. A plurality of signal terminals are disposed in the insulating housing. A pair of positioning members each has a fixing board fastened in the fixing block. A front end of the fixing board extends frontward and then is arched oppositely to the base to form a flexible board elastically received in the receiving groove and has the apex project out of the receiving groove. When the electrical connector is inserted into the inserting mouth, the guiding block slips into the receiving fillister. The apex of the flexible board slips over the corresponding clipping element and then is restrained by the clipping element.
Abstract:
An antenna structure comprises a substrate, a first antenna unit and a second antenna unit. The substrate comprises a first surface and a second surface opposing the first surface. The first antenna unit is disposed on the first surface, and comprises at least a first slot with a wider inside and narrower outside at the edge of the first antenna unit. The second antenna unit is disposed on the second surface, and is connected to the first antenna unit through a hole in the substrate. The radius of the at least one first slot is one-fourth the wavelength of the central frequency of the antenna structure.
Abstract:
A method of repairing a nonvolatile semiconductor memory device to eliminate defects includes monitoring a memory endurance indicator for a nonvolatile semiconductor memory device contained in a semiconductor package. It is determined whether that the memory endurance indicator exceeds a predefined limit. Finally, in response to determining that the memory endurance indicator exceeds the predefined limit, the device is annealed.
Abstract:
An apparatus comprising a processor configured to startup a new process on a peer processor to off-load a load of a local process on the processor in a dynamic manner based on monitoring an amount of resources used by the processor, wherein the startup of the new process on the peer processor is initiated when the amount of resources used by the local process reaches a threshold.
Abstract:
An apparatus comprising a processor configured to discover one or more peer processors associated with a network component in a dynamic manner by detecting an announcement message from a peer processor, wherein the announcement message is multicast from the peer processor when the peer processor is added or activated on the network component.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a mold with sliders employed for molding a plastic product having a first lateral bulge and a second lateral bulge in different directions. The mold comprises a fixed half, an angle pin, a moving half, a main slider and a tilted slider. The angle pin comprises an angle pin body with two opposite forcing surfaces. The main slider comprises a tilted slide track corresponding to the second lateral bulge. A pin slot is formed on the main slider. Two weighted surfaces are formed on the main slider at the opposite two sides of the pin slot. The angle pin body can slidably dip into the pin slot and the driving guide slot. By acting on the tilted slider and then on the main slider with the angle pin body, the mold can respectively complete the procedure of pulling out laterally bulges aslant and horizontally.
Abstract:
A plastic injection mold includes a stationary mold member, a movable mold member, an unloading mechanism, and a movable platen operating mechanism. The movable platen operating mechanism includes an elastic element and a stopping connection element. The elastic part element has an end coupled to an ejector plate and an opposite end positioned against the movable platen by extending through a receiving hole defined in an auxiliary platen. The movable platen is coupled to the auxiliary platen by the stopping element in a relatively movable manner. With the movable platen operating mechanism disposed on the movable mold member, ejection of a molded product from the mold can be carried out in a two-stage process, assuring successful and intact release of the product from the mold without causing undesired deformation.
