摘要:
A control lever assembly with handle lockout capability including a lever element selectively positionable in a locking position and lockable therein by movement of a handle thereof to a lock position. A first biasing member is disposed on the lever element in an operative position to exert a first biasing force against a detent element, and a second biasing member is disposed in opposition to the first biasing member and is operable to hold the detent element to allow free pivotal movement of the lever element relative to a base.

A tantala ring resonator includes a tantala ring resonator formed by ion-beam sputtering of tantalum pentoxide and exhibiting an optical quality factor in excess of 3×106, and a substrate to which the tantala ring resonator is attached. A method for fabricating nonlinear photonic devices includes depositing tantalum pentoxide with ion-beam sputtering to form a tantala layer onto a substrate, annealing the tantala layer, and etching the tantala layer to form a photonic device.

There is disclosed a reinforcement material for forming reinforced members. The reinforcement material includes a strengthening material which is preferably a fabric disposed at least partially between portions of matrix material.
摘要:
A method for developing cost-effective pathways for treatment using an evidence-based approach may include enabling suggestions of imperfect times for cyclical appointments may include receiving availability information defining available periods for a healthcare related asset, receiving appointment parameters defining a number and frequency of recurring appointments to be scheduled, determining, via processing circuitry, periods of overlap between the available periods and the appointment parameters, and determining an inconsistent schedule pattern based on the periods of overlap. A corresponding computer program product and apparatus are also provided.
摘要:
A system that allows the remote measurement of the size, geometry, pitch and orientation of the roof sections of a building and then uses the information to provide an estimate to repair or replace the roof, or to install equipment thereon. The system includes an aerial image file database that shows aerial images of buildings in a designated area according to address. The slope and orientation images are typically oblique perspective views and top plan views of the buildings in the area. The system also includes an image analysis and calibration feature that enables the viewer to closely estimate the size, geometry and orientation of the building's roof sections. The information can then be used to prepare a cost estimate for the repair or replacement of the roof or installation of roof equipment. By simply inputting the potential customer's address, the company is able to determine the size, geometry, pitch and orientation of the roof sections of the building at that address, and then quickly provide an accurate estimate to the customer.
摘要:
An adhesive is provided for bonding to a first surface, a second surface or both. The adhesive typically includes at least one curing agent that cures through exposure to a condition such as heat, moisture or a combination thereof.
摘要:
Systems and methods are disclosed that include adjusting a pressure level of a sample gas in a testing chamber, for example, using a pressurized inert reference gas, and determining a composition of the adjusted sample gas. By adjusting the pressure level of the sample gas, the composition of the sample gas may be determined more accurately than otherwise possible. Numerous other aspects are disclosed.
摘要:
A method of preparing a clean substrate surface for blanket or selective epitaxial deposition of silicon-containing and/or germanium-containing films. In addition, a method of growing the silicon-containing and/or germanium-containing films, where both the substrate cleaning method and the film growth method are carried out at a temperature below 750° C., and typically at a temperature from about 700° C. to about 500° C. The cleaning method and the film growth method employ the use of radiation having a wavelength ranging from about 310 nm to about 120 nm in the processing volume in which the silicon-containing film is grown. Use of this radiation in combination with particular partial pressure ranges for the reactive cleaning or film-forming component species enable the substrate cleaning and epitaxial film growth at temperatures below those previously known in the industry.
摘要:
A filter element includes a first, outer tubular construction of filter media defining a first open filter interior; a second, inner tuber construction of filter media defining a second open filter interior; the second construction of filter media being located within the first open filter interior and being radially spaced from the first construction of filter media; and the second open filter interior defines an unfiltered fluid channel. A plastic inner liner is within the first open filter interior to support the first construction of filter media. A plastic outer liner is within the first open filter interior to support the second construction of filter media. A filtered fluid channel is defined between the inner liner and the outer liner. A brace arrangement is between the first and second tubular constructions. The brace arrangement can include a spring, a plurality of gussets, or a solid spacer.
摘要:
A medical device system that includes a brain monitoring element, cardiac monitoring element and a processor. The processor is configured to receive a brain signal from the brain monitoring element and a cardiac signal from the cardiac monitoring element. The processor is further configured to determine at least one reference point for a brain event time period by evaluation of the brain signal. The processor further identifies a first portion of the cardiac signal based on the at least one reference point of the brain event time period.
