Abstract: A special effect screen and a photo booth include a special effect screen assembly. The special effect screen assembly includes a supporting frame and a special effect curtain. The supporting frame supports and unfolds the special effect curtain, so that a top projection of the special effect curtain is curved. The supporting frame includes an adjusting mechanism adjusting an arc of the top projection of the special effect curtain. The supporting frame includes a connecting base, two adjusting frames, first fasteners, and elastic supporting rods. The two adjusting frames are respectively arranged on two sides of the connecting base and are slidably connected to the connecting base. The first fasteners are configured to connect the adjusting frames to the connecting base. The elastic supporting rods pass through the special effect curtain. Two ends of each of the elastic supporting rods are respectively connected to the two adjusting frames.

Abstract: The disclosure provides a resin cleaning device and method. The resin cleaning device includes a control system, a treatment unit, a driving unit, and a feedback assembly. The treatment unit, the driving unit, and the feedback assembly are respectively in communication connection with the control system. The treatment unit is configured for treating a member-to-be-cleaned so as to reduce a viscosity of resin on the member-to-be-cleaned. The driving unit is configured for driving the member-to-be-cleaned to rotate. The feedback assembly is configured for acquiring a position signal of the member-to-be-cleaned and feeding the position signal back to the control system, such that the control system controls the treatment unit and the driving unit according to the position signal. Through the above manner, a more intelligent resin cleaning process with a better cleaning effect may be realized.

Abstract: A method and a sensor for detecting L-cystine are disclosed. The method is implemented by assembling a sodium 3,3?-dithiodipropane sulfonate (SPS) membrane on a surface of Au membrane layer of an Au electrode and using an extended gate of field effect transistor (FET) and in-situ signal amplification of the FET to detect L-cystine sensitively. The polyanion of the SPS membrane adsorbs and binds a positively charged target L-cystine through electrostatic interaction, thus forming an electric double layer structure to generate a membrane potential identifying a monovalent organic ammonium ion. The sensor includes the FET, wherein a gate-extended gold electrode is arranged on the FET, and the SPS membrane is assembled on the surface of the Au membrane layer of the gate-extended gold electrode. The sensor has an excellent Nernst response to L-cystine.

Abstract: A stent-graft includes a short tube graft and patch located inside of a primary graft. The patch forms a smooth and reliably sealed transition between the primary graft and the short tube graft. Accordingly, the disruption to fluid, e.g., blood, flowing through the lumen of the primary graft by the short tube graft is minimal. Further, the patch supports the inner end of the short tube graft. Thus, the patch, the short tube graft and the primary graft form a stable three-dimensional structure.

Abstract: A cryoablation system for performing endometrial ablation comprising an elongated tubular cannula having a proximal end, a distal end, and a longitudinal axis, an expandable balloon extending from the distal end of the cannula and fluidly connected to a source of heat transfer fluid by at least one fluid path, a pump for circulating the heat transfer fluid into and out of the balloon, a probe handle coupled to the proximal end of the cannula and in fluidic communication with the balloon through the cannula, and a heat exchanger for varying the temperature of the heat transfer fluid, wherein the heat exchanger is fluidly connected to a secondary refrigerant source, and wherein the heat exchanger comprises an outer tubular wall and a plurality of fins extending from the tubular wall toward the interior portion of the heat exchanger.

Abstract: A system for administering a financial program involves the collection of payments. The system includes a debit system for coordinating the administration of the financial program, which, in turn, includes interface logic for allowing a user to interact with the debit system, and batch processing logic for performing batch processing associated with the financial program. The system further includes at least one support system coupled to the debit system for handling an aspect of the administration of the financial program, and for conmmunicating with the debit system. The system further includes a data storage for storing data tables used by the debit system in the administration of the financial program. The data storage also includes a representation of information as maintained by a retired system previously used for administering the financial program. In a preferred embodiment, the financial program is an insurance program with payment due dates occurring weekly or monthly.
