  • Publication number: 20230398711
    Abstract: A cutting tool includes: a drive device for driving a saw blade to rotate; a base plate having an upper surface and a lower surface, wherein the lower surface is configured to abut against a cut material; a body accommodating at least part of the drive device and connected to the upper surface; a handle at least partially configured behind the body; and a junction portion for detachably mounting a battery set. When a cutting depth of the cutting tool is changed and a cutting angle of the cutting tool remains unchanged, a position of the handle relative to the base plate remains unchanged. The cutting tool is comfortable and convenient to use.

  • Publication number: 20230045652
    Abstract: Methods, systems and non-transitory computer readable storage media of electric field treatment planning of a target tissue. A method of electric field treatment planning of a target tissue site includes: (a) obtaining an image of the target tissue site, (b) determining volume and one or more electric properties of the target tissue site, (c) using the volume and the one or more electric properties to: (i) determine a number of electrodes to treat the target tissue site with electric fields, each electrode having one or more contacts, (ii) determine a placement of the number of electrodes within the target tissue site, and (iii) relative to one of the contacts in one of the number of electrodes at the placement determined in (ii), determine an electric field that results in a prescribed electric field coverage of the target tissue site.

  • Patent number: 9393080
    Abstract: To improve the overall navigation process for minimally invasive repair of heart valve leaflets, an augmented reality technique capable of providing a robust three-dimensional context for transesophogeal echocardiography data has been developed. In the context of various embodiment of the invention, augmented reality essentially refers to a system in which the primary environment is virtual but the environment is augmented by real elements. In this real-time environment, the surgeon can easily and intuitively identify the tool, surgical targets, and high risk areas, and view tool trajectories and orientations.

  • Patent number: 8498630
    Abstract: There is disclosed a method and apparatus for initiating a call in a mobile telephone system, comprising the steps of: comparing a current location of a mobile terminal to at least one predetermined location; and, responsive to a location match, initiating a call from the mobile terminal to a predetermined number associated with said at least one predetermined location.

  • Patent number: 8490326
    Abstract: A combination hydro straw mulch is used for hydroseeding and hydromulching for seed establishment and erosion control. The formulation of the mulch is preferably, but not limited to, approximately 85% hammermilled straw, approximately 10% hammermilled paper, and approximately 5% processed jute fibers. The hammermilled straw is preferably Kentucky Bluegrass straw. The hammermilled paper particles are used for its water holding capacity. The paper aids in pumpability and reduces the amount of water required for pumping a quantity of mulch. The processed jute fibers tangle the straw fibers on the ground to produce a secure ground covering. The hydro straw mulch of the present invention may include other additives as well. Tackifiers and flocculants aid pumpability and help tack the straw fibers to the ground and aid in water infiltration and water clarity. A surfactant ensures wettability. Other additives include green dye.

  • Patent number: 7222563
    Abstract: The steam generating assembly of the present invention subjects a food product, such as a sandwich bun, to a controlled burst of low pressure steam in order to quickly and uniformly raise the temperature of the food product to its desired serving temperature or higher. By raising the temperature to above the desired serving temperature, the storage time of a pre-assembled food product, such as a fast food sandwich may be extended without sacrificing the quality or freshness of the product. The invention claims a steam generating assembly for steam heating a pre-processed food product.
