摘要:
Silicone adhesive formulations are provided, in which fentanyl particles are suspended one or more a solvated silicone adhesives. The formulations can be used for manufacturing improved, matrix-type transdermal devices for administering fentanyl.
摘要:
A method for improving at least one property of a polyester, the property selected from the group consisting of impact strength, color, or tensile modulus of a polyester comprising reacting the polyester with an epoxy silane wherein the epoxy is attached to a terminal cycloaliphatic ring system, the reaction product having improved at least one of the properties of impact strength, color, and tensile modulus.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for interrupting flatware from falling into a receptacle allow debris or other material potentially containing flatware to fall through a vertical chute toward a receptacle, sense the presence of flatware within the falling debris or other material and move a hinged panel across the vertical chute in response to the step of sensing to deflect such flatware laterally through an opening in a sidewall of the chute.
摘要:
A vehicle and method for controlling an engine in a vehicle are provided. A temperature of a lubricating fluid in the engine is determined, as are first and second engine speed limits. Operation of the engine at the first engine speed limit is limited to a predetermined time period when the lubricating fluid temperature is between first and second predetermined temperatures. The engine speed is at least temporarily limited to the second engine speed limit after the engine has been operated at the first engine speed limit for the predetermined time period and the lubricating fluid temperature is between the first and second predetermined temperatures.
摘要:
An eyewear assembly having flexible temple elements with counterweights is disclosed. The counterweights and flexible temples can serve several other purposes aside from the disclosed role of supporting eyewear on a wearer's face. Those purposes include ornamental elegance in design and facilitating a natural adjustability around unique personal features for position and comfort. The flexible temple elements provide mechanisms for transmitting electrical, mechanical and photonic power and or signals to the eyewear while the counterweights provide the source for said transmissions from a more convenient location.
摘要:
A control method is disclosed for maintaining a calibrated minimum load for an engine in a vehicle powertrain with an engine. The possibility of engine misfire due to low engine loads is reduced. Further, undesired high temperature of an engine exhaust gas catalytic converter due to prolonged operation of the powertrain at low engine loads is avoided.
摘要:
A ceramic wall-flow filter for filtering particulate matter from gases and methods for manufacturing such wall-flow filters are disclosed. The filter includes an array of porous ceramic walls defining a pattern of end-plugged inlet and outlet cells, and heat absorbing elements disposed within at least some of the outlet cells such that a bulk heat capacity of the outlet cells is greater than a bulk capacity of the inlet cells. The heat absorbing elements increase a bulk heat capacity of the filter without substantially interfering with a flow of gas through the porous ceramic walls by allowing thinner walls. According to the method, during the step of extruding or thereafter, heat absorbing elements are formed within at least some of the outlet cells such that a heat capacity of the outlet cells is greater than the inlet cells.
摘要:
A method for controlling fuel injection during engine startup in a hybrid electric vehicle. The hybrid electric vehicle includes an engine, a power source, an electrical machine, and a control module. The method includes the steps of driving the engine with the electrical machine, determining whether the engine is at a target state, selecting a cylinder for fuel injection, calculating an amount of fuel to provide to the cylinder, injecting the amount of fuel, and repeating the selecting, calculating, and injecting steps for another cylinder for a predetermined number of iterations.
摘要:
An instrument guide and method for use. An elongate flexible strip has a proximal end, a distal end, an a medial portion between the proximal and distal ends. A distal pocket is positioned adjacent the distal end of the elongate flexible strip. A medial pocket is positioned on the medial portion of the elongate flexible strip, the medial pocket being dimension to receive a surgical instrument. An anchor may be positioned adjacent the proximal end of the elongate flexible ribbon.
摘要:
Disclosed is an interactive pet toy, food delivery and training system with toy object which moves furtively in and out of a recess of an assembly and which when captured provides the pet an edible treat. The furtive toy object can be manipulated manually, remotely or automatically.
