Abstract: An isolating system and method for dampening vibrations between vibration-generating or vibration-sensitive equipment and a support structure. The isolating system includes first and second housing sections connected to one another via a vibration dampening assembly. The first housing section is secured to the support structure and includes a frame and first isolator assembly. The second housing section includes a second isolator assembly positioned between the frame and first isolator assembly. The vibration dampening assembly connects the first and second isolating assemblies to one another and prevents direct physical contact between them. One of a flange assembly and flange assembly of an attachment assembly is engaged with a connector region of the second isolator assembly and is used to secure the equipment to the second isolator assembly.

Abstract: A vibration dampening device, a mounting assembly including a vibration dampening device, and a method of dampening vibration in a vibration-sensitive component using the same. The vibration dampening device includes a first member that rests upon or is operatively engaged with a support surface; a second member that is operatively engaged with the vibration-sensitive component; and at least one isolator assembly interposed between the first member and the second member, wherein the first member and the second member are decoupled from one another by the at least one isolator assembly. The at least one isolator assembly includes a first isolator that is at least partially embedded in the first member and a second isolator that is at least partially embedded in the second member, and an isolator insert that extends between the first isolator and second isolator. The isolator insert creates a gap between the first and second members.
Abstract: This invention relates to a soap bar composition which provides enhanced delivery of water soluble skin benefit agents such that the desired activity of the benefit agent is observed for a long time post the wash. This is achieved by absorbing/coating the benefit agent on to specific clays followed by further coating with a hydrophobic material selected from wax or petrolatum.

Abstract: An inner drum cover is provided at a drum opening of an inner drum of a washing machine, the inner drum cover is used to open or close the drum opening, so that the inner drum forms a closed container after the drum opening is closed by the inner drum cover. The inner drum can perform washing after the inner drum cover is correspondingly fastened to the drum opening, so that clothes only come into contact with washing water in the sealed inner drum in a washing process. In this way, a case in which the clothes are contaminated because washing water between the inner drum and an outer drum flows into the inner drum is avoided, washing cleanliness of the washing machine is greatly improved, and incomplete washing of the clothes caused by contamination of the washing water between the inner drum and the outer drum is avoided.

Abstract: Cellular biological activities are tightly controlled by intracellular signaling processes initiated by extracellular signals. Protein tyrosine phosphatases, which remove phosphate groups from tyrosine phosphorylated signaling molecules, play equally important tyrosine roles as protein kinases in signal transduction. SHP-2, a cytoplasmic SH2 domain containing protein tyrosine phosphatase, is involved in the signaling pathways of a variety of growth factors and cytokines. Recent studies have clearly demonstrated that this phosphatase plays an important role in transducing signal relay from the cell surface to the nucleus, and is a critical intracellular regulator in mediating cell proliferation and differentiation.

Abstract: A linear actuator is configured to be connected between a platform and a structure or ground for displacement of the platform relative to the structure or the ground. The actuator comprises a base, and an output displaceable linearly relative to the base. A first plurality of idlers are on the base, and a second plurality of idlers are on the output. An actuator unit has a reciprocating rotational output. A tensioning member has a first end connected to the rotational output of the actuator unit, and a second end connected to an anchor point on one of the output and the base, the tensioning member being routed from the rotational output, through the first plurality of idlers and the second plurality of idlers and to the anchor point for converting a winding/unwinding of the tensioning member into a translation of the output.

Abstract: The present invention provides compositions, kits, and method for determining the levels of expression of human polyoma or papillomavirus species and RNA transcripts. These levels can be used for the prognosis of risk of developing virally-induced cancers. The ratio (R) between early and late transcripts is indicative of HPV infections associated with higher risk of developing genital neoplasia and cancer.

Abstract: Machine learning classification models which are robust against label noise are provided. Noise may be modelled explicitly by modelling “label flips”, where incorrect binary labels are “flipped” relative to their ground truth value. Distributions of label flips may be modelled as prior and posterior distributions in a flexible architecture for machine learning systems. An arbitrary classification model may be provided within the system. The classification model is made more robust to label noise by operation of the prior and posterior distributions. Particular prior and approximating posterior distributions are disclosed.
