Abstract: A multi-rotor UAV having a pull pin mechanism that engages and disengages the rotor arms from a deployed, in-flight position to a storage or transport configuration, thus making the UAV more portable and capable of carrying larger payloads with the flexibility of folding into a smaller configuration or profile for transport, such as in a backpack. The device includes a rotor arm utilization of a pull pin mechanism to lock and unlock the position of the arms, and a proprietary frame.

Abstract: A syringe-to-syringe coupling for facilitating the transfer of fluids or medications from a first syringe to a second syringe. In example embodiments, the coupling includes a centrally-positioned hub extending from a first end to a second end, and a fluid delivery conduit provided within the hub and extending between the first and second ends. In example forms, each end of the hub includes a male tip.

Abstract: Techniques to determine that an employer of a member has an omitted company page in a social network are described. A user input can be received from the member. The user input selecting a company from a company list. The company can have a similar name to an employer of the member and the company already having a company page. Member data of the member having social graph information can be accessed. Using the social graph information, a first connection density value for the member and the company can be calculated. Additionally, a second connection density value can be calculated for the member and the employer. Furthermore, a determination that the employer has an omitted company page can be determined based on the first connection density value and the second connection density value. Subsequently, a generation of a company page for the employer can be initiated based on the determination.

Abstract: An improved oral administration coupler for delivery of fluids such as medications and nutritional fluids. Example oral administration couplers have a first end with an applicator for oral delivery to an infant, and a second end with a coupling compatible with an enteral fluid delivery syringe. A fluid delivery conduit extends in fluid communication from the first end to the second end, to deliver fluid from the syringe to the infant.

Abstract: Methods and systems for submitting media to a media distribution site are disclosed. The submission of media to the media distribution site is able to be performed by numerous submitters in a uniform and computer-assisted manner. The submitted media can then be encoded in a largely automated manner at the media distribution site into a suitable digital form and then made available for online purchase and distribution.

Abstract: A system and method for mixing fluid constituents within a multi-stage mixing syringe, and delivering the mixture formed in the mixing syringe. The multi-stage mixing syringe system includes an outer syringe barrel defining a first contained volume therein, an intermediate syringe barrel and plunger configured for coupling within the outer syringe barrel and for advancement and retraction within the first contained volume, and defining a second contained volume therein, and an inner syringe plunger configured for coupling within the intermediate syringe barrel and plunger and for advancement and retraction within the second contained volume.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for endodontics by means of continuous ultrasonic irrigation with negative apical suction for the administration of disinfectants and other adjuvant substances in odontological treatment, comprising three fundamental parts: a plastic body connected to an ultrasonic dental unit, a coronal cannula for the ejection of the irrigant, and a microcannula that sucks up same.

Abstract: A self-righting tip cap includes a cap body having a generally oblate spheroid external shell geometry defining a first end and a second end. The first end has a base surface, and at least one clip extends from the body towards the second end. A coupling element accessible from the second end provides removable attachment of the tip cap to a cooperating coupling of a syringe or other female ENFit connectors. The geometry of the tip cap causes it to tend toward uprighting itself when dropped onto a flat surface, such that the base surface is in contact with the flat surface and the coupling element is accessible in an upward facing orientation. According to example forms, at least one rib of a female coupling can become interengaged with at least a portion of the clips such that the self-righting tip cap can be pulled and/or rotationally moved relative to the female coupling to be removed therefrom.

Abstract: A transfer lid for a fluid container, having an attachment collar for removably attaching the transfer lid to the fluid container, and an inner collar arranged generally concentrically with and spaced inwardly from the attachment collar, the inner collar having a vent opening such as a vent slot extending therethrough.

Abstract: A connector for medical fluid vessels includes a fluid-seal fitting such as a male plug defining a lumen and mating with a cooperating connector, a mechanical fastener such as a screw thread for mating with the cooperating connector, and an outer housing positioned around the plug to form an annular space. Optionally, a cap can be provided with a fluid-seal fitting such as a male plug for mating with the lumen of the connector. The connector includes one or more vent openings for drainage and air-drying of any residual fluid in the annular space when capped, as well as for breaking a vacuum to prevent fluid backflow and thus ensure more accurate dosing. In some embodiments, the vent openings are provided in the outer housing. And in some embodiments, the vent openings are provided in the cap.
