摘要:
Dental implant systems for releasable attachment of dental prostheses are shown and described. Each of the dental implant systems includes an implant body, a prosthesis body, and an abutment body with a locking device. The locking device includes a magnetically attractable member having a first end coupled to a spring and a second end. The magnetically attractable member is moveable between a locked position and an unlocked position. The dental implant system further includes a void configured to receive the second end, the magnetically attractable member being at least partially disposed within the void in the locked position, the magnetically attractable member being free of the void in the unlocked position.

A guide assembly for running a liner through a borehole extending through a subterranean formation, the guide assembly having a central axis, a first end configured to be coupled to the liner, and a second end opposite the first end. The guide assembly includes a guide shoe disposed at the second end, a drive assembly including a radially outer housing, and a rotor concentrically disposed in the housing. The rotor has a first end distal the guide shoe and a second end fixably coupled to the guide shoe, and is configured to rotate about the central axis relative to the housing about the central axis.

A method and apparatus for making a water drainage-promoting wrap for applications such as housewrap and roofing underlayment. A substrate, which may be breathable or non-breathable, is conveyed through a nip between a rotating sleeve and a roll, the sleeve having a plurality of apertures therein. A fluid resin composition is fed into the sleeve and is fed out through the apertures in the sleeve as it rotates and as the substrate moves through the nip, forming spaced-apart spacer elements on a face of the substrate. The spacer elements are then dried or cured.

A therapeutic micro-vibration massaging device that also generates both a dynamic induction magnetic force field and an electromagnetic photonic optical light beam field, accompanied by audible acoustic sound, that penetrates the human body, induces an increase in cellular energy and thereby promotes a curative healing effect that reduces or eliminates pain.

A production planning method inputs demands for products. The demands have multiple due dates, and the multiple due dates have different priorities. The method performs an explosion process utilizing linear programming and heuristics to identify demands for components that are used to make the products (the explosion process maintains the multiple due dates and corresponding priorities for the components) and performs an implosion process utilizing linear programming and heuristics to assign resources to the components considering the multiple due dates and corresponding priorities.
摘要:
Disclosed are embodiments of an improved production planning method that avoids or limits early builds. The method comprises running a conventional production planning program using standard inputs (e.g., date effective yields). The outputs of the program (e.g., a plan including planned inventory overstocks at given times) are evaluated to determine if the program plans an early build and if the planned early build may have been triggered by a predicted decrease in yield. If an early build is planned and if a correlation exists between the decrease in yield and the early build, then, optionally, new constraints are added into the program and the program is re-run so that the early build is either avoided or limited to that of the proper yield. Thus, the method can be used to reduce early builds due to an incorrect, nominally higher, yield without requiring the user to provide any special additional input data.

A method for improving the efficiency and effectiveness of instant messaging between users on any computing devices. One aspect of the invention is to automatically identify the status of an intended recipient and transform the details into a meaningful summary status which will be displayed to the sending user. Another aspect of the invention is to mitigate interruptions to a recipient by delaying the receipt of the message based on particular rules. Another aspect of the invention monitors the instant messaging activity of a user for efficiency and then suggests appropriate actions to improve the efficiency. The monitoring is based on measurements taken periodically and a set of rules can be used to detect inefficiencies. Once inefficiency is detected, an instant notification can be sent to the user or periodic reports can be sent to the user, management or any other entity.
