Abstract: An apparatus for precisely measuring and applying torque and angle of rotation to tighten screwed fasteners. The apparatus includes a drive motor for generating a rotation, a pair of spaced triggers for activating the operation of the drive motor, and a controller for precisely measuring the torque to be applied and angle of rotation to be achieved by the apparatus, the controller not permitting the motor to be activated without both of the triggers being activated. A reduction gear system is also provided for reducing a rate of rotation generated by the motor, the reduction gear system outputting a rotational drive torque for driving the screwed fastener.

Abstract: Cable assemblies and connector systems that include magnetic elements are disclosed. The cable assemblies may include first and second cables. A first plurality of magnetic elements may be arranged around the first cable proximate a first end, while a second plurality of magnetic elements may be arranged around the second cable proximate a second end. Magnetic forces between respective ones of the first and second pluralities of magnetic elements may tend to retain the respective first and second ends of the first and second cables proximate one another. The connector systems may include mating retainers, each of which may include a plurality of magnetic elements. Magnetic forces between respective ones of the pluralities of magnetic elements may tend to retain the mating retainers proximate one another. In some examples, the mating retainers may include guiding elements, which may be configured to orient the mating retainers.

Abstract: A compact, convenient and portable prepackaged kit for use in aiding individuals suffering from adult incontinence and those who care for them is disclosed. The kit is useful both for providing all of the materials needed to tend to an individual suffering from adult incontinence in one convenient package and for providing a quick and convenient means by which to dispose of the materials after they have been used.

Abstract: A process for homogeneously dispersing at least one reactant in a fluid matrix, characterized in that capsules of a first type containing the reactant(s) are prepared with a first encapsulation product and capsules of a second type containing the fluid matrix are prepared with a second encapsulation product which is compatible with the first, these two types of capsules bearing electric charges of opposite polarity, the capsules of the two types are combined by electric attraction and the first and second encapsulation products are removed so as to obtain a composite material consisting of the fluid matrix containing the reactant(s) in homogeneous dispersion form, and products obtained according to this process.
