Abstract: An oral insert includes a plurality of manifolds and a plurality of fluid nozzles. A manifold switch is coupled to the plurality of manifolds. The manifold switch is configured to select which of the plurality manifolds is to receive fluid from a fluid source.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for providing personalized oral irrigation. One variation of a method of generating a model of an oral insert including a fluid inlet port, fluid nozzles, manifolds, and a tray configured to retain teeth may comprise the steps of displaying a graphical representation of the oral insert model, generating a geometry of the fluid nozzles based on oral scan data of a jaw, defining a tray surface that encloses the fluid nozzles based on the oral scan data, generating a geometry of the manifolds that connect the fluid inlet port to the fluid nozzles on the graphical representation of the oral insert model. The manifolds are configured to provide a predetermined range of hydraulic pressures to each of the fluid nozzles.

Abstract: A chiller or cooler is disclosed, including a self-test mechanism to simulate a sampling of normal operations and to compare the operating parameters resulting from such sampling against factory operational parameters adjusted for differences in operating parameters so as to eliminate unnecessary servicing or maintenance events.

Abstract: A computer process for fitting construction materials to an architectural surface modeled in CAD divides the surface into domains. Sample points are defined on each domain surface. A surface portion of a regular curved solid is matched to the sample points. The surface portion of the curved solid is defined in terms of a central reference and boundary conditions. The result is compared to stored specifications to identify construction materials capable of forming the domain. At least one construction material is identified that can form each domain.

Abstract: The present invention provides a user interface that includes a first column for chronologically displaying a set of messages (objects) in a conversation, and a second column for displaying a branch of messages (objects) corresponding to a message (object) selected in the first column. The user interface further includes, among other things, a list of participants to the conversation, a vertical index (time line), a list of related conversations and a conversation map that illustrates a hierarchy of the conversation. Each message (object) in the first column can have an associated indicator for indicating a quantity of predecessors and successors to the set of messages (objects), as well as an in-line reply button for replying to the set of messages. Each of the messages displayed of the second column can have one or more associated navigation buttons for navigating adjacent hierarchical levels.
