摘要:
A solar-powered automated system for the operation of drapery, roller blinds, and similar window coverings. The solar panel (102), or photovoltaic source provides the sole power to drive common types of window drapery and blinds in a compact system having a solar panel (photovoltaic source), actuator (104) and head rail (120). The solar panel (102) is to be mounted onto the frame of a window or elsewhere to collect sufficient light. A connecting cable links the solar panel (102) to the actuator (104) to draw electrical power from the solar panel. The actuator is attached to the head-rail (120) to provide the required driving force. The actuator (104) includes the control circuit boards, a single rechargeable battery (110), an electric motor (106) and output mechanism. An RF remote control receiver (116) is built inside the actuator (104). A low voltage control port (114) allows the actuator (104) to be accessible by a control interface. The control circuit comprises a standby circuit (111) and a boosting circuit (108). The standby circuit (111) operates at the battery voltage level and consumes minimum power to save energy when the system is not in use. The boosting circuit (108) is only activated when the actuator (104) drives the window covering, and works only during the time span of such activity. The head rail (120) houses the necessary members for transmitting the driving force to the drapery for open/close operation. It can also be a rotary type for a roller blind.

A system, method, and computer-usable medium for removing redundancy from packet classifiers. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a packet classifier is implemented as a sequence of rules. A redundancy manager marks at least one upward redundant rule and at least one downward redundant rule. The redundancy manager removes at least one rule marked as upward redundant and at least one rule marked as downward redundant.

Flavonoids are obtained from plants that overexpress an ANT1 gene compared to wild-type plants. The plant may be a transgenic plant that contains a transformation vector that causes the overexpression of ANT1. Alternatively, the plant can be selectively bred to have an allele of or mutation in an endogenous ANT1 gene that causes the overexpression of ANT1 compared to plants lacking the allele or mutation.

A tool belt for fastening about a wearer's torso comprises a support belt having a first end and a second end each having attachment means for securing the belt about the wearer's torso. A plurality of individual cushion pads is attached to the support belt on a proximal surface of the support belt. At least one of a plurality of magnetic elements is associated with one of the individual cushion pads. The individual cushion pad has an indentation formed in a proximal surface thereof, shaped to correspond to a shape of the at least one magnetic element, and the at least one magnetic element is at least partially disposed within the indentation in the cushion pad to restrict movement of the magnetic element relative to the cushion pad while the belt is in use about the wearer's torso.

A method of fabricating semiconductor devices is provided. A plurality of gate structures is formed over a substrate. A source region and a drain region are formed in the substrate and adjacent to sidewalls of each gate structure. A self-aligned salicide block (SAB) layer is formed over the substrate to cover the gate structures and the exposed surface of the substrate. An anneal process is performed. The SAB layer creates a tension stress during the anneal process so that the substrate under the gate structures is subjected to the tension stress. A portion of the SAB layer is removed to expose a portion of the gate structures and a portion of the surface of the substrate. A salicide process is performed.
摘要:
Actuators and interchangeable cartridges that achieve a grinding or grating different substances without cross-contamination. The actuators and cartridges are disclosed are uniquely designed for ready push-on, push-off mounting in a manner that affords proper alignment of the cartridge in the actuator. The cartridges may include a container portion and a mount portion, each with a grinding element arranged at an output thereof. As the container and mount portions move relative to one another, their respective grinding elements move, achieving a grinding or grating of substances in the container. Various embodiments and variations are disclosed.
