  • Publication number: 20230285659
    Abstract: A delivery device for intravenous delivery of microparticles to a patient. The delivery device is fluidly connectable to (i) a first source of an injection medium and (ii) a second source of an injection medium. The delivery device includes: a first fluid inlet fluidly connectable to the first source of the injection medium, a fluid outlet, a fluid mixer fluidly connecting the first fluid inlet to the fluid outlet, a second fluid inlet fluidly connectable to the second source of the injection medium, and a source of microparticles fluidly connecting the second fluid inlet to the fluid mixer. When fluid flows from the second source of the injection medium into the delivery device: the second injection medium fluidly drives microparticles from the source of microparticles into the fluid mixer, and the fluid outlet dispenses to the patient an injection medium that includes the microparticles.

  • Publication number: 20200242259
    Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for providing a publisher with a privacy control UI that enables the publisher to assign one privacy wall to each domain-purpose pair; determining that the publisher has created an additional privacy wall for a specific domain-purpose pair that has an existing privacy wall; in response to determining, restricting the specific domain-purpose pair to a single active privacy wall, including: in response to creation of the additional privacy wall: enabling only one of the existing privacy wall and the additional privacy wall to be in an active state; maintaining any privacy wall that is not in the active state in an inactive state; detecting a transition of a specific privacy wall from the inactive state to the active state; in response to detecting, transitioning a different privacy wall from the active state to the inactive state.

  • Patent number: 9331599
    Abstract: There is described a multilevel electric power converter circuit comprising: Ns switching elements connected in series in a closed loop; NAE additional elements, the additional elements being one of a direct current source and at least one passive element, connected within the closed loop such that each additional element is connected to four of the switching elements, the ratio of a number of additional elements NAE to a number of switching elements NS corresponding to NS=2NAE+2; and one of a load and an alternating current source connected across the closed loop at nodes between adjacent switching elements that are separate from nodes to which the additional elements are connected.

  • Patent number: 6551428
    Abstract: Process for assembly of a flexible panel on an open structure, and installation to make use of this process. According to the invention, a flexible panel (12) is attached to an open structure (10) by pre-assembling these two parts by cold gluing before they are fixed using attachment devices such as rivets. Cold gluing is done using a gluing cap (48) on the inside of which linear and individual inflatable joints (54, 56) are fitted to press the panel (12) into contact with the framework (10) in unperforated parts of the framework. The time necessary for assembly is thus very much reduced, while the quality of part positioning is unaffected.

  • Patent number: 6372690
    Abstract: The invention relates to a foliar saline spray solution for selective control of noxious weeds such as ragweed, poison ivy, dandelion, clover, bedstraw, wild parsley, millet, thistle, English daisy, plantain, ground-ivy, and knotweed. The invention also relates to a method for selective control of noxious weeds. In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the solution comprises 8% to 12% weight to volume of a specific salt such as sodium chloride. The solution may further comprise an adjuvant such as a non-ionic surfactant.
