摘要:
A refrigerator having an ice and water dispenser has a seal to sealingly engage the ice compartment when the refrigerator door is closed. The seal is flexible to accommodate manufacturing tolerance. The seal may be impregnated with a friction reducing agent to increase life of the seal.
摘要:
A refrigerator having a dispenser in a front panel of the door. The door has an outer door pan with an outer door cavity and an inner liner having an inner liner cavity. An angled ice chute may be placed through both the inner liner cavity and the outer door cavity to move ice to the dispenser. The inner liner has more storage space over conventional ice chute dispensers. The dispenser may have a housing that positions a control panel and water outlet forward the front panel.
摘要:
The present invention is a refrigerator having an ice and water dispenser with a lighted dispenser target ring. The dispenser has a lighted target ring to facilitate positioning of a container for receipt of ice and water. An additional benefit is that the lighted target ring reduces ice and water spray outside of the container being filled.
摘要:
A refrigerator having a forward projecting dispenser that extends forward a front panel of the door. The door has an outer door pan with an outer door cavity and an inner liner having an inner liner cavity. An ice chute may be placed through both the inner liner cavity and the outer door cavity to move ice to the forward projecting dispenser. The dispenser may have a housing that positions a control panel and water outlet forward the front panel. The dispenser may extend to the door handle of the refrigerator or beyond the handle. The distance the dispenser extends forward the front panel of the door is minimized using a slight diagonal rear side of the dispenser housing.
摘要:
A fluid collection mat and a system for collecting fluids using a vacuum source is disclosed. The fluid collection mat may be formed from multiple layers of material. At least one layer of the material may be formed from absorbent material. Another layer may be used to regulate fluid flow from the absorbent layer. Still another layer of the material distributes suction from a vacuum source through the mat adjacent to the layer regulating fluid flow from the absorbent layer.
摘要:
Glycerolipids and fatty acids are purified in a continuous flow by removal of particulates and moisture. Following this, they are esterified and transesterified in batches, after which the fatty acid alkyl esters produced are separated from the glycerin phase byproduct and are purified through a continuous flow removal of soaps, trace glycerin, salts, and free alcohol. Excess alcohol is recovered from the glycerin phase and esters, after which it is purified and reused. Waste soaps are acidulated and recovered as fatty acids, and waste glycerin is refined and separated from trapped oils, which are recovered. A plurality of individual modules, each specialized for specific tasks, and fluidly coupled by plumbing, perform these processes. The throughput capacity is expandable in small increments through addition and integration of additional modules into the system and/or adjustments to the number of shifts worked by operators.
摘要:
Stabilized antibodies directed to Angiopoeitin-2 and uses of such antibodies are described. Nucleic acid and amino acid sequences, hybridomas or other cell lines for expressing such antibodies are also provided.
摘要:
The present invention provides anti-human ICOS antibodies with increased effector function. The invention further relates to pharmaceutical compositions, immunotherapeutic compositions, and methods using therapeutic antibodies that bind to the human ICOS antigen and that may mediate ADCC, CDC, and/or antibody-dependent phagocytosis (opsonisation) for the treatment and prevention of T cell-mediated diseases and disorders, such as, but not limited to, chronic infection, autoimmune disease or disorder, inflammatory disease or disorder, graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), transplant rejection, and T cell proliferative disorder.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to polynucleotides encoding polypeptides associated with the development of rheumatoid arthritis and homologs thereof. The invention further relates to diagnostic and therapeutic methods for utilizing these polynucleotides and polypeptides in the diagnosis, treatment, and/or prevention of rheumatoid arthritis and related disease states. The invention further relates to screening methods for identifying agonists and antagonists of the polynucleotides and polypeptides of the present invention, and compounds identified thereby.
