Abstract:
A Peripheral Intravenous Safety Catheter with Quick, Painless Puncture System (PISCQPPS) and a cannula with a retractile needle mounted in a manually operated bellows mechanism to prevent re-use, avoid accidental perforation and ensure safe disposal. This PISCQPPS offers the advantages of reducing or eliminating pain; reducing the possibility of multiple perforation; reducing the need for experience and technical know-how in the matter of injection; being fitted with a safety system; and easy to use. The PISCQPPS consists of two sequential operating systems - namely, a painless insertion system that is located inside a case, consisting of a catheter, a catheter holder, a trigger guard, a trigger-guard holder, a catheter-holder tube, a cannula, a cannula holder, a spring, a filter holder, and a filter; along with a safety system inside whose case the cannula holder, the cannula and the bellows all operate at the same time.
Abstract:
A lubricant additive suitable for combination with an aqueous-based paper or paper board coating mixture wherein the lubricant additive is selected from the group consisting of a polyoxyalkylene mono- and di-ester of phosphoric acid, a polyoxyalkylene mono- and di-ester of a phosphoric acid salt, and a mixture thereof.
Abstract:
Dental raising forceps for the posterior upper molars or their remains, in the upper arcade, which has a passive part (1) and a hinge (2) that are conventional, together with a contra-angled part in bayonet form (3), and which terminates in certain moving jaws (4), in a circumferential arch, concave on the inside and symmetrical, and the cross-section of which gradually diminishes until it terminates in two points, (assuming the shape of a pair of bull's horns) which makes it possible to insert it between the last two dental pieces and which when it is moved gives rise to the distal (backwards) luxation of the last molar and its consequent loosening.

Abstract:
Provided is a method (400) for determining a location on a surface (200) from an image of a region of said surface, said surface being divided into a plurality of cells (302; 304) arranged in a first direction and a second direction perpendicular to said first direction, each cell comprising a plurality of marks (202; 204; 206; 208), forming a pattern which uniquely identifies a cell, the method comprising: determining at least part of a boundary of a first cell from locations where marks of said plurality of marks are adjacent in with said first direction or said second direction (402); determining a location of said first cell from said pattern in said first cell (404).
Abstract:
A nonwoven fabric having high tensile modulus suitable for cleaning printer cylinders is formed by hydroentangling a fibrous nonwoven web formed from higher-melting polyester fibers, lower-melting binder fibers and woodpulp fibers and then thermally bonding the fabric.
