Abstract: A composite oxidation catalyst for use in an exhaust system for treating an exhaust gas produced by a vehicular compression ignition internal combustion engine is disclosed. The composite oxidation catalyst comprises a honeycomb flow-through substrate monolith and two catalyst washcoat zones arranged axially in series on and along the substrate surface.

Abstract: A suture device for use in combination with a delivery system including a lumen extending through the delivery system includes a needle usable to carry a suture, a distal shuttle configured to releasably secure the needle, a sleeve disposable over the distal shuttle, the distal shuttle movable relative to the sleeve between a locked position in which the needle is locked to the distal shuttle and an unlocked position in which the needle is releasable from the distal shuttle. A shaft is operably coupled to the sleeve and a control wire is operably coupled to the distal shuttle. A needle may include a needle cap.

Abstract: A vacuum cleaner including a base, a spine, a dust collection assembly, and a battery. The spine is connected to the base. The spine includes a handle portion and a mounting portion. The battery is connected to the mounting portion of the spine. The battery is pivotable between a first position in which the battery is fixedly connected to the spine, and a second position in which the battery is pivoted away from the spine. The dust collection assembly is connected to the spine.

Abstract: A showerhead is disclosed having a stationary portion and a movable portion. The movable portion is operable to dock at least partially within the stationary portion to create an integral appearance. Both the stationary portion and movable portion have at least one spray nozzle disposed therein. The stationary portion and movable portion are operable to simultaneously deliver water from their spray nozzles.

Abstract: A dish drainer and tray system providing reduced space requirements for packaging, shipping, display and storage. The tray may be compacted into storage size which allows it to fit in the drainer, thereby allowing the drainer rather than the combination to determine the space requirements. In one embodiment, the tray folds about one or more live hinges, and in a second embodiment the tray rolls and includes a closure to maintain it in the rolled position. A particularly preferred embodiment includes a detachable silverware compartment that drains directly into the sink and which can be stored with the tray in the drainer.

Abstract: A network switch including a multiplicity of ports for the reception and forwarding of addressed data packets including network destination data and network source address data, and a forwarding database having a trie search facility organised in blocks of pointers, which are accessed by respective segments of a search key and identify in a last stage of a search forwarding data identifying each port from which a packet should be forwarded and in any stage of the search prior to the last stage a block of pointers, the switch including a device operable before the trie search facility is utilised for a given packet to compare a network destination address of the given packet with at least one stored address and when the network destination address matches the stored address to access the network source address data of the given packet for use as the search key.
