A treatment device (10) for treating a treatment site (13) within a vessel (12) includes a frame (16) that is positioned in the vessel (12) at or near the treatment site (13). The vessel (12), for example, can be an artery or other internal passageway within a patient (20). The vessel (12) has a preplacement site inner diameter (28) near the treatment site (13). The treatment device (10) includes a frame (16) that moves from a contracted first configuration (30) to an expanded second configuration (236). The frame (16) has a frame outer diameter (240) at the second configuration (236) that is approximately equal to the preplacement site inner diameter (28). The frame (16) can deliver a treatment (242) to the treatment site (13).
摘要:
Nonwoven abrasive articles, particularly lofty nonwoven abrasive articles, with a textured, non-planar surface and an abrasive coating thereon. The coating may cover the entire surface or only portions of the surface. The textured surface, composed of peaks or high regions and valleys or recessed regions, provides improved cut performance over nonwoven abrasive articles having a generally planar abrading surface.

A number of hash tables are accessed concurrently with a different computed index based on a single search key for each hash table. Each index identifies a location in one of the hash tables capable of storing at least one entry. If all indexed locations are used, the entries stored in the lookup table can be reordered so that the new entry can be inserted in one of the locations identified by the computed indexes.
摘要:
A command processing system for transferring commands from at least one command source to at least one command target of at least one command target type. The command processing system comprises at least one service client associated with each command source; a command processor in communication with the at least one service client; and a command thread associated with each command target type. The command thread is in communication with the command processor. The command thread is in communication with the at least one command target. The command thread transfers commands from the command processor to the command target.
摘要:
A method and apparatus of removing flash from a brick is disclosed. The method includes the steps: a) moving a rod through the hole; and b) directing a pressurized fluid from the rod into the hole as the rod moves into and out of the hole. The apparatus includes a clamp and a tube which are connected to the frame. The clamp secures the brick. The tube is configured to move through the brick hole and retract back to its starting position while a pressurized fluid is directed into the hole from a distal end of the tube.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method of coating substrates with at least two coatings, wherein the same polymer or resin basecoat is employed in both of the two coatings. The first coating layer also includes an adhesion promoter, thereby eliminating a primer layer. Further, the present invention provides an automated or continuous coating line or coating system including a series of coating booths, each for applying one of a series waterborne or solvent borne coatings, wherein at least the first and second booth each comprises an applicator device and feed or supply controller for feeding a desired amount of the same basecoat formulation to an applicator device, and, further wherein the first booth comprises a feed or supply controller for feeding a desired amount of an adhesion promoter to the at least one applicator device. The coating line or system enables the continuous formation of primeness multi-layer coatings, e.g. basecoat, colorcoat and clearcoat on automotive plastic substrates, from a single paint composition, mixing in color or adhesion components as needed in each booth.

A miniaturized laser package is provided comprising a standard semiconductor laser package modified to accept a solid state microchip assembly pumped by the diode laser. Standard packages described in the invention include TO and HHL packages all of which are characterized by small dimensions, well sealed housing, robust mounting features, known characterized materials and economical production and assembly techniques characteristic of the semiconductor processing industry. In particular, the microchip lasers are produced using high density techniques that lend themselves to mass production, resulting in very low unit costs. At the same time, the compact laser devices provide a solution to the problem of providing laser radiation at high beam quality and good reliability features with a variety of wavelengths and operational characteristics and low noise features not available from diode lasers yet relying primarily on standardized designs, materials and techniques common to diode laser manufacturing. The devices constructed according to methods taught by the invention can therefore be readily integrated into numerous applications where power, reliability and performance are at a premium but low cost is essential, eventually replacing diode lasers in many existing systems but also enabling many new commercial, biomedical, scientific and military systems.

A rotor is disclosed for a galvanometer system. A rotor includes a permanent magnet core, a sleeve and at least one shaft unit. The sleeve encloses and attaches to at least a portion of the permanent magnet core. The sleeve is formed of a material having a density of less than about 0.283 lb/in3. The shaft unit is attached to both the permanent magnet core and to the sleeve. An output device may be coupled to the shaft unit, and the shaft unit is formed of a material having a dynamic stiffness of at least about 1.00×109 lb in7/slug.

A method of forming an integrated circuit and a structure therefore is provided. A gate dielectric is formed on a semiconductor substrate, and a gate is formed over the gate dielectric. Shallow source/drain junctions are formed in the semiconductor substrate. A sidewall spacer is formed around the gate. Deep source/drain junctions are formed in the semiconductor substrate using the sidewall spacer. A siliciding spacer is formed over the sidewall spacer after forming the shallow and deep source/drain junctions. A silicide is formed on the deep source/drain junctions adjacent the siliciding spacer, and a dielectric layer is deposited above the semiconductor substrate. Contacts are then formed in the dielectric layer to the silicide.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for decreasing elevated serum/plasma LDL-cholesterol levels or LDL-cholesterol levels and CRP levels in a mammal in need thereof. The methods comprises administering an effective amount of a tetracycline formulation. In one embodiment, the tetracycline formulation is a non-antibacterial tetracycline. In another embodiment, the tetracycline formulation is an antibacterial tetracycline at a sub-antibacterial amount.
