Abstract: A medical containment enclosure defines an internal chamber configured to receive at least part of a patient during a medical procedure, with the enclosure operable to fluidly connect to a suction device. The enclosure includes a containment housing, an access portal, and a suction port. The containment housing at least partly defines the chamber. The access portal defines an orifice that permits chamber ingress and egress. The suction port fluidly communicates with the chamber and is fluidly connectable to the suction device to permit the suction device to draw fluid from the chamber. The access portal restricts fluid flow through the orifice so that fluid removal by the suction device is operable to reduce an internal chamber pressure below an external pressure and thereby restrict aerosols from exiting the chamber via the access portal.

Abstract: Conventional vehicle lifts typically operate at a standard speed that is statically configured for the system, which may result in vehicles that are below the weight rating for the lift being raised at the standard speed while the lift motor is capable of safely raising at greater speeds. A set of lift controls may be configured to determine the load on the motor by a vehicle of an unknown weight during operation at a standard lift speed and use such information to determine a potential speed that the motor may raise the vehicle at while staying within safe operational levels for the motor. One or more of a magnitude of electrical power drawn, a pressure generated by a hydraulic lifting, or a sensed vehicle weight may be used to provide an indication of load on the motor and/or a higher potential speed.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are copolymers formed by cationic polymerfization of one or more cyclic dienes and a comonomer selected from the group consisting of a monoterpene, a branched styrene, and combinations thereof, in the presence of a catalyst. Random copolymers having repeat units derived from a cyclic conjugated diene, such as 1,3-cyclohexadiene, and a comonomer such as a monoterpene, can be prepared as soluble products in hydrocarbon solvents. The copolymers can be crosslinked with various crosslinking agents to form materials having good oxidative stability and fire retardancy. The uncrosslinked and crosslinked copolymers have useful properties such as a low dissipation factor, low dielectric constants, and a good balance of thermomechanical and electrical properties that make them valuable in electronic applications.
