Patent number: 11723452Abstract: An improved paint brush is disclosed. In particular, the improved paint brush includes a body portion and a handle extending therefrom. A plurality of bristles extends from the body portion, and can be held in place by a sleeve. A hook is disposed on and extends from the body portion. The underside of the hook is rounded so that a painter can place her thumb on the hook thereby obtaining a more stable grip allowing for more precise painting.Type: GrantFiled: January 4, 2020Date of Patent: August 15, 2023Inventor: Rafael Alvarez

Patent number: 11429353Abstract: Features are disclosed for dynamically provisioning an application stack using a set of infrastructure resources. A computing device can receive an infrastructure template from an administrative device. Based on the infrastructure template, the computing device can determine a schema and an infrastructure as code. Using the schema, the computing device can receive a specification file from a developer device or an administrative device. The specification file can be a service specification file or an environment specification file. The computing device can inject the values of the specification file into the infrastructure as code. The computing device can use the injected infrastructure as code to generate and deploy the application stack to the developer device.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 2020Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Clare E Liguori, Suresh Kumar Venkatachalam, Roy Kachouh, Rafael Alvarez Vallina, Adnan Khan

Publication number: 20220134800Abstract: A stackable magnetized bucket with integral handle and grate comprises a generally cylindrical container that has a rounded sidewall. The sidewall extends upwardly from a floor wall to a rim that forms an open top. A portion of the sidewall forms a flat side that is sloped inwardly from the rim to the floor wall to enable stacking multiple containers. A grate that rests on the inner surface of the flat side to enable scraping paint from a paint brush or roller. The grate can have multiple textured configurations and openings that enhance the squeezing of paint. The container also comprises an integrated handle that forms at a peripheral flange beneath the rim. The integrated handle is sized to enable gripping the top end of the container. A magnet that positions proximal to the rim, on the outer surface of the sidewall to detachably attach with a magnetized mounting surface.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 3, 2021Publication date: May 5, 2022Inventor: Rafael Alvarez

Patent number: 11253497Abstract: Use of polyunsaturated fatty acid derivatives as medicaments or functional foods. The present invention relates to the use of 1,2-fatty acid derivatives in the treatment or prevention of common diseases whose etiology is based on alterations (of any type) of the cell membrane lipids, for example, changes in levels, in the composition or in the structure of these lipids. In addition, for diseases in which the regulation of lipid composition and of the structure of the membranes (or proteins that interact with membranes) causes the reversion of pathological state.Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 2020Date of Patent: February 22, 2022Assignee: Lipopharma Therapeutics, S.L.Inventors: Pablo Vicente Escriba Ruiz, Xavier Busquets Xaubet, Maria Laura Martin, Rafael Alvarez Martinez, Victoria Llado Canellas

Publication number: 20170224458Abstract: A new titanium-based implant is disclosed, which is formed by a titanium coating manufactured with biomaterials with applications in osseous implantology. The nanotopographical characteristics of these implants inhibit bacterial adhesion and the formation of a bacterial biofilm on the surface, whilst simultaneously presenting suitable properties for the adhesion, stretching and proliferation of bone-forming cells. Moreover, the invention comprises a method for manufacturing the implant by means of oblique-incidence techniques and the use thereof in osseous implantology.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 24, 2015Publication date: August 10, 2017Applicant: CONSEJO SUPERIOR DE INVESTIGACIONES CIENTIFICASInventors: José Miguel GARCÍA MARTÍN, Alberto PALMERO ACEBEDO, Rafael ÁLVAREZ MOLINA, María VALLET-REGÍ, Daniel ARCOS NAVARRETE, Isabel IZQUIERDO BARBA
