Abstract: A label dispenser coupled to product-transporting carts at retail facilities includes a label roll support arm supporting multiple label rolls thereon, a label guide arm including openings that permit a leading portion of the backing substrate of a label roll to pass therethrough, and a side wall interconnecting the label roll support arm and the label guide arm. The label guide arm also includes an upper portion located above the openings and configured to support the backing substrates of the label rolls thereon. The label guide arm further includes an edge configured to facilitate separation of a leading peelable label from the backing substrate in response to a force applied by the user when pulling the leading portion of the backing substrate of the label roll through the opening of the label guide arm.

Abstract: Disclosed are embodiments of a semiconductor structure that includes a semiconductor-controlled rectifier (e.g., for electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection). The SCR can be readily integrated into advanced semiconductor-on-insulator processing technology platforms (e.g., a fully depleted silicon-on-insulator (FDSOI) processing technology platform) that employ hybrid semiconductor substrates (i.e., semiconductor substrates with both bulk semiconductor and semiconductor-on-insulator regions) and is configured with an on-Pwell semiconductor-on-insulator gate structure that is tied to an anode terminal to effectively lower the SCR trigger voltage. To further lower the trigger voltage of the SCR, the Pwell on which the gate structure sits may be made narrower than the gate structure and/or the doping profile of the Pwell on which the gate structure sits may be graded (e.g., P to P? closer to insulator layer).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a vial device for storing a specimen which containing exfoliative cells of a human body and for being used in smearing the exfoliative cells. More specifically, the present invention relates to a technology, which may be used with an exfoliative cell processing device for smearing exfoliative cells, for moving manually or automatically in the exfoliative cell processing device with containing the exfoliative cells so as to provide a part of the exfoliative cells to a slide of the exfoliative cell processing device. The present invention has an advantage in that, due to a recess and a latching rib in the opening cap, the opening cap may be automatically separated from the container member without user operation through a rotating member of the exfoliative cell processing device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for coupling subsea tubular members together are provided. An apparatus may be used to properly orient and/or provide communication between a first subsea tubular member that is being landed on a second subsea tubular member. An apparatus for coupling subsea tubular members may include an alignment sub and a corresponding alignment member. The alignment sub includes: a generally cylindrical body having one or more fluid, electric, or fiber optic lines extending therethrough, one or more couplings coupled to at least one end of the alignment sub, and an orientation profile disposed on a surface of the alignment sub. The alignment member has a profile designed to interface with the orientation profile of the alignment sub. One of the alignment sub and the alignment member remains stationary while the other rotates relative to the stationary structure.

Abstract: Systems and methods for landing a tubing hanger in a wellhead and then orienting a tree (or spool, or flowline connection body) relative to the tubing hanger while landing the tree on the wellhead are provided. This alignment is accomplished without the use of either a tubing spool or a BOP stack with an orientation pin. The tubing hanger alignment devices may be used to orientate the tree as the tree is landed so that the couplings and stabs between the tree and the tubing hanger line up with each other just at the moment of landing.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for selecting a color for a chemistry or instrument based upon a parameter of a test, the method including: identifying a color corresponding to a parameter of a test for the parameter; selecting, if the color corresponding to the parameter has not previously been used for another parameter, the color for designating a chemistry or an instrument as corresponding to the parameter; selecting, if the color corresponding to the parameter has previously been used for another parameter, a different color other than the color for designating a chemistry or an instrument as corresponding to the parameter, wherein the selecting a color other than the color comprises identifying a color having a measure of change in visual perception of the different color against other previously selected colors a predetermined value from the other previously selected colors; and utilizing the selected colors for parameters across both chemistries (102, 104, 105) and instruments (101, 103) that are util
