Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to the field of injections, for instance needle-free injections, and more specifically, to methods and apparatus for spring-driven intramuscular and intradermal injections. Provided in some embodiments are needle-free injectors adapted to deliver intradermal injections, as well as vial adaptors that are adapted to function as spacers when used with a needle-free injection device.

Abstract: A flame simulating assembly is provided with a reflected flickering light that includes only one light source. Light from the light source passes through a rotating flicker element onto an angled reflector, or mirror, that reflects light up onto a simulated fuel bed and the some of the light is reflected off of the flicker elements towards a flame screen to create a simulated flame. The clipping flicker elements creates a fluttering light effect due to the flicker elements “intermittently dipping” into the light path. This fluctuating light is reflected onto the logs and ember bed in front and creates a dancing effect, which simulates glowing embers.

Abstract: A flame simulating assembly for providing a moving effect of flames. The assembly includes a light source; a flicker element disposed in the path of the light source configured and arranged to reflect light from the light source; and an imaging wall. The imaging wall is disposed above the light source and includes a front facet and at least one additional facet. The front facet has an upper portion disposed forward of a lower portion thereof and the at least one additional facet extending rearward from the front facet. Light from the flicker element is occluded by the front facet to provide a more realistic fire shape. The fire shape appears wider at the base than at the top.

Abstract: Methods of using KDAC inhibitor compounds for the treatment of various parasitic diseases are described.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments include methods and systems for detecting ATM skimmers, other unauthorized devices, such as hidden video cameras or keypad overlays, and/or possible damage to the ATM based upon radio frequency (RF) signal emitted from the ATM and/or 3D image analysis.

Abstract: A wireless power transmission system may include a wireless power transmitting device such as a tablet computer and a wireless power receiving device such as a computer stylus. A wireless power transmitting capacitor electrode may be formed in the tablet computer. A wireless power receiving capacitor electrode may be formed in the computer stylus. The transmitting capacitor electrode may be driven by a drive signal having a frequency of 900 MHz or greater to produce wireless power. The wireless power may be transmitted from the transmitting capacitor electrode to the receiving capacitor electrode on the stylus via near field capacitive coupling. The transmitting and receiving capacitor electrodes may each include conductive traces on dielectric substrates. The conductive traces may follow meandering paths to maximize the possible capacitive coupling efficiency between the capacitor electrodes and thus the end-to-end charging efficiency of the wireless power transmission system.

Abstract: A variable vane assembly for a gas turbine engine compressor and method of manufacturing same is described. A plurality of projections on the inner and/or outer shroud protrude into the annular gas path, each projection being at least partially circumferentially disposed between two variable vanes and located adjacent the overhang portion thereof. The projections have an angled planar surface that is substantially parallel to a plane defined by a terminal edge of the overhang portion of the variable vanes when pivoted through a vane pivot arc.

Abstract: Isoform-selective lysine deacetylase inhibitors are described. Inhibitors of the lysine deacetylase enzyme are useful as antitumor drugs and for treating addiction, asthma, cardio-vascular disease, immunosuppression, neurodegenerative diseases, sepsis, sickle-cell disease, uveal melanoma and termination of viral latency, particularly HIV-1 latency.

Abstract: The present systems, i.e. a primary lithium battery, utilize electrolytes that do not produce gases at the lower voltages, allowing increased useable capacity of a battery in a low power implantable medical device.

Abstract: A ring electrode to determine the orientation of the stylus relative to the surface. The stylus can include a ring electrode configuration which can improve capacitive coupling between the ring electrode and the touch panel. The ring electrode configuration can include a ring electrode and ground ring, and ground plate. By varying the lengths of ring electrode, ground ring, ground plate, and the distance between these elements, the electric field emanating from the ring electrode can be tuned to optimize the capacitive coupling between the ring electrode and surface. In some examples, the ring electrode can include multiple sub-rings. In some examples, the ring electrode can comprise a crown shape including projections, each having a width that tapers to a minimum width along the length of the ring electrode.

Abstract: Anode foil, preferably aluminum anode foil, is etched using a process of adding an etch resist to the anode foil and treating the foil in an electrolyte bath composition comprising a sulfate, a halide, an oxidizing agent, a surface active agent, and a non-ionic surfactant. The anode foil is etched in the electrolyte bath composition by passing a charge through the bath. The etched anode foil is suitable for use in an electrolytic capacitor.

Abstract: Anode foil, preferably aluminum anode foil, is etched using a process of treating the foil in an electrolyte bath composition comprising a persulfate, a halide, an oxidizing agent, and a sulfate. An etch resist can be added to the anode foil prior to etching. The anode foil and the attached etch resist can be heated prior to immersing both in an electrolyte bath composition. The anode foil is etched in the electrolyte bath composition by passing a charge through the bath, while maintaining a constant level of persulfate. The etched anode foil is suitable for use in an electrolytic capacitor.
