摘要:
A sanitization station including a fluid source and one or more plasma generators for generating non-thermal plasma is disclosed. One or more nozzles spray a mist or stream of fluid through plasma generated by the one or more plasma generators to activate the fluid. The fluid is then used to sterilize an object. Another sanitization station includes a chamber for holding a fluid and a plasma generator in fluid communication with the chamber for generating plasma. A circulating source moves the fluid in the chamber past plasma generated by the plasma generator to activate the fluid and one or more spray nozzles coat the surface of an object with fluid that is activated by plasma.

A merchandise security system includes a rail adapted to be secured to a first associated merchandising structure, which can be a shelf or a wire rack display. The rail includes a first longitudinally extending channel. At least one tile is mounted to the rail. The at least one tile extends away from the rail so as to approach a second associated merchandising structure spaced from the first associated merchandising structure. The at least one tile includes a protrusion which is accommodated in the first rail channel to enable a sliding movement of the tile in relation to the rail. This construction allows selective access to any desired portion of at least one of the first and second associated merchandising structures.

A medical device enables effective magnetic resonance imaging inside a lumen of a medical device. The medical device includes a plurality of conductive traces formed on a substrate. The conductive traces form an inductive-capacitance circuit or a resistive-inductive-capacitance circuit. The inductive-capacitance circuit or resistive-inductive-capacitance circuit is tuned to a frequency associated with magnetic resonance imaging, an operating frequency associated with a magnetic resonance imaging scanner, a harmonic of an operating frequency associated with a magnetic resonance imaging scanner, or a sub-harmonic of an operating frequency associated with a magnetic resonance imaging scanner.

A passive resonant circuit is disposed on an implanted stent. The materials, geomentry and electrical parameters of the stent with passive resonant circuit are chosen and arranged so that incident electromagnetic radiation induces currents in the passive resonant circuit that optimize imageability during MR scanning.

The computer pointing input device allows a user to determine the position of a cursor on a computer display. The position of the input device in relation to the display controls the position of the cursor, so that when a user points directly at the display, the cursor appears at the intersection of the display and the line of sight from of the input device. When the device is moved, the cursor appears to move on the display in exact relation to the input device. In addition, a cursor command unit allows the user to virtually operate the input device wherein changes in the position of the device allow the user to spatially invoke mouse functions. The computer pointing input device is designed to operate with a computer having a processor through a computer communication device.

An apparatus for conditioning gas for use in a medical procedure comprises a housing defining a chamber having an entry port and an exit port. The housing contains at least a humidification means comprising a container for liquid. A humidity sensor may be disposed within the chamber that senses the humidity of the gas exiting the chamber. A monitoring circuit is connected to the humidity sensor that detects when the chamber requires a recharge of liquid, and generates a recharge signal indicative thereof. A charging port on the housing provides access into the chamber to recharge the chamber with water. Alternatively, a backup container of liquid is provided to continuously supply liquid to the humidification means. A heating element and temperature sensor are also disposed within the chamber. A control circuit further regulates the temperature of the gas exiting the chamber.
