摘要:
The updating of components of storage keys is managed. A control program indicates whether the updating of selected components of a storage key can be bypassed. If the updating of the selected components can be bypassed, then depending on the circumstances, an update of the storage key may not need to be performed, saving on quiesce operations. The likelihood that the updating of a storage key can be bypassed is enhanced by selecting a block of storage, along with its associated storage key, from a designated queue or designated region of a queue.

An improved vehicle sway control assembly designed to limit excessive side swaying of an axle of a vehicle during all driving conditions. The system utilizes two frame brackets (77), (97), one axle/spring bracket (129), and two rods (35), (67). The first rod (35) has one end attached to a frame bracket (77) and the other end to the axle/spring bracket (129). It incorporates a telescoping feature allowing the rod end nearest the frame bracket (77) to telescope. The second rod (67) is attached on the opposite side to a frame bracket (97) on one end and a mid section plate (34) on the telescoping rod (35) on the other end. The counter rotational arch of the second rod (67) will force the telescoping rod (35) to extend thus canceling the telescoping rod (35) arch curve travel if it were a solid rod. The overall design will limit axle (166) to frame (78) side movement while providing near straight vertical axle (166) travel.

An operable barrier system for vehicles includes a turntable for use with a trafficable surface and at least one impact element disposed on the turntable. A drive system is provided to rotate the turntable along the trafficable surface between a first position to prevent passage by vehicles and a second position, approximately 90 degrees from the first position, to permit passage by vehicles. A method of providing an operable vehicle barrier for use with a roadway includes providing a turntable device having a top surface, mounting at least one impact element on the top surface, and providing a drive system capable of rotating the turntable device in a plane that can be driven across by vehicles from the roadway.

An ink supply comprises an ink container having an opening for releasing ink and a valve member and a mechanism for biasing the valve member so as to prevent the flow of ink from the container when the ink supply is not mounted on a supply base. The ink jet system includes an ink reservoir, a cover enclosing the reservoir, and a neck having a threaded inner surface engaging the ink supply when the ink supply is inserted within a first opening within the neck The cover has a second opening that is concentric with and below the neck and the first opening to permit ink to flow from the ink supply, through the second opening and into the reservoir. A flat shoulder of the cover surrounds the second opening and controls the ink supply by stopping further insertion once the ink supply is fully mounted,

An electronic pin fastener (29) for use in a security system for garments, merchandise, and the like mounted for sale or display on a display fixture, rack, or bin causes an alarm to be produced upon removal of the pin fastener (29). The pin fastener (29) has an enclosed housing (60) having top (68) and bottom (63) walls, a hole centrally disposed in the bottom wall (63), a pin (61) having a head and a stem, the stem extending through the hole in the bottom wall (63), and bias means effective to bias the head of the pin (61) towards a predetermined position such as to cause an alarm. The stem of the pin (61) is retained in a depressed position such as to not produce an alarm by an EAS tag or locking device after the pin (61) is inserted through a garment.
摘要:
A method of forming oral orthotic systems (100) to position and/or stabilize a mandible of a patient includes providing an upper dental member (20) adapted to be placed in connection with upper dentition of the patient, providing a lower dental member (30) adapted to be placed in connection with lower dentition of the patient and providing a plurality of posterior mounting structures (40). Each of the posterior mounting structure is adapted to be attached to one of the upper dental member or the lower dental member at a posterior, buccal position thereon. Each of the posterior mounting structures includes an extending member (42) which includes a plurality of positions (44) at which one of a plurality of connectors (50) is attachable to the extending member. Force may be applied to the mandible of the patient via at least one of a plurality of different mechanisms via attachment of a component of the mechanism (120) to at least one of the posterior mounting structures. The upper dental member and the lower dental member are formed, independently, from at least one polymeric material.
摘要:
A new and improved invention for the purification of quantity of air within an plenum, prior to introduction to an existing HVAC system, consisting of modular air purification units arrayed as to form a wall that may be permeated only through said modules. Each module of the invention is individually serviceable and may be partially removed from the overall system for replacement or maintenance.

An apparatus for selectively positioning intraoral anatomic features of a human patient to enhance upper airway stability for use alone or in combination with positive airway pressure as therapeutic treatment for obstructive sleep apnea and other conditions, such as snoring, which are symptomatic of upper airway instability.
摘要:
Methods for upgrading the operating system of an appliance and/an one or more applications run by the appliance. The method can be used to reload existing software, to add an operating mode to the appliance, and/or to enable an existent but previously disabled operating mode of the appliance. Also disclosed are methods for making a laser readable disk which is used in the upgrading process and which also can be encoded with an operating system and/or application software.
摘要:
An electronic pin fastener is useable in a security system for garments, merchandise and the like mounted for sale or display on a display fixture, rack or bin, whereby removal of the pin fastener will cause an alarm. The pin fastener has an enclosed housing having top and bottom walls, an aperture centrally disposed in said top wall, a hole centrally disposed in said bottom wall, a pin having a head and a stem, the stem of the pin extending through said hole in said bottom wall and bias means adapted so that the head of said pin is biased towards a circuit closed or open position to cause an alarm. The stem of the pin is adapted to be retained in a depressed position by an EAS tag or locking mechanism after the pin is inserted through a garment.
