摘要:
A method for freeze protection for a temperature control system, and a temperature control system for controlling the temperature of a temperature-controlled space at a set point temperature. The method includes monitoring a discharge air temperature, monitoring a return air temperature, setting a target temperature to equal the set point temperature, controlling the return air temperature at the target temperature, and adjusting the target temperature based on the return air temperature when the discharge air temperature drops to one of at or below freezing.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a bandage for use in negative-pressure wound therapy, more particularly for wounds in the abdominal region, comprising a flexible film as a wound contact layer and at least one conduit applied to the film, wherein the conduit communicates with the wound space through openings in the conduit and in the film.
摘要:
A device for negative pressure wound therapy having a cover material for air-tight sealing of the wound space connected to a negative pressure source; and a wound dressing having an open-cell polyurethane foam. The open-cell polyurethane foam has special properties, in particular a tensile strength after three days of storage in bovine serum, measured in accordance with DIN 53571, between 80 kPa and 300 kPa. The open-cell polyurethane foam may be used as a wound dressing in negative pressure wound therapy.
摘要:
A mobile environment-controlled unit having a structure, a compartment supported by the structure, and an environmental-control system in environmental communication with the compartment. The environmental-control system is configured to control an environmental parameter of the compartment. The environmental-control system includes an internal combustion engine, having a starter, powering the environmental-control system; a battery powering the starter; and a controller. The controller monitors battery health status, predicts battery failure, and communicates the predicted battery failure. Also, described is a method of operating the mobile environment-controlled unit and a controller for controlling the mobile environment-controlled unit.
摘要:
A system for determining a fuel consumption of a transportable environmental-control unit. The system includes a sensor and a controller. The sensor is configured to sense an amount of fuel in a tank. The controller is configured to receive an indication of the amount of fuel in the tank from the sensor, monitor and filter the indication of the amount of fuel received from the sensor for a first period of time, monitor and filter the indication of the amount of fuel received from the sensor for a second period of time, and determine a quantity of fuel used between an end of the first period of time and an end of the second period of time.
摘要:
The invention refers to a device for the negative pressure wound therapy comprising a cover material for the air-tight sealing of the wound and the wound surroundings; a means suitable for the generation of a negative pressure in the wound area, preferably a means for the functional connection of the wound area with a negative pressure source outside of the cover material in such a way that a negative pressure can be generated in the wound area and fluids can be drawn out of the wound area by suction; and a wound dressing, whereby the wound dressing contains an open-cell foam on the basis of a cross-linked polyorganosiloxane. The invention also refers to the use of open-cell foam on the basis of a cross-linked polyorganosiloxane for use in the negative pressure wound therapy, in particular in patients with a BMI of less than 18.
摘要:
In order to improve an implant, in particular a bone replacement implant for insertion into a bone cavity, or an intervertebral implant for insertion between two adjacent vertebral bodies of a human or animal spine, which can be brought from a normal position, in which the implant encompasses a maximum total volume, into an insertion position, in which the implant encompasses an insertion volume, which is smaller than the maximum total volume, such that the implant can be inserted through as small as possible an opening in a human or animal body and nevertheless have a high inherent stability, it is proposed that the implant has a plurality of cavities in fluidic connection with one another, and that a net volume encompassed in the normal position by the plurality of cavities in fluidic connection with one another is smaller than the maximum total volume.
摘要:
A fluid flow control valve is provided with means for detecting and quantifying valve seat leakage when the valve is in its closed position. Any fluid leaking past the seat flows through an orifice of known, fixed dimensions present downstream of the seat when the valve is in its closed position. Pressure transducers measure a first pressure immediately upstream of the seat, a second pressure between the seat and the orifice, and a third pressure immediately downstream of the orifice. The second and third pressures are used to calculate flow through the orifice, and the calculated flow is used with the first and second pressures to determine the size of a leak path across the seat.
摘要:
An embedded security system for an environment-controlled trailer including a transportation refrigeration unit. The security system includes a plurality of sensors mounted to the trailer and a communication device embedded in the transportation refrigeration unit of the trailer, the communication device being configured to receive data from the plurality of sensors, and to send the received data to a controller being remote from the trailer. The controller is configured to monitor the security status of the trailer and to determine a security risk at the trailer based, at least in part, on the received data.
