  • Publication number: 20260029364
    Abstract: An assay device (1) for electrochemical sensing of a sample fluid comprises, at least one substrate (2), at least one electrode (3), and at least one channel (5). The channel (5) extends at least partially in the substrate (2) and is configured to receive the sample fluid. At least part of the electrode (3) is arranged in the channel (5) and is configured to detect at least one electrical property being associated with the sample fluid. The substrate (2), at least in the region of the channel (5), is porous. At least the part of the electrode (3) being arranged in the channel (5) is porous. The substrate (2) is configured to exert a capillary force onto the sample fluid in the channel (5) such that the sample fluid is flowing through the part of the electrode (3) being arranged in the channel (5).

  • Publication number: 20220105219
    Abstract: A door handle sanitizer includes a housing that is mountable to a door and an access lid pivotally attached to the housing. An interior volume of the housing includes a dispensing mechanism having a connector disposed within the interior volume that is configured to removably receive a sanitizer refill container, and a nozzle configured to dispense a sanitizing material onto the door handle. A power supply is operably connected to a motion sensor, a timer, indicator lights, a dispensing mechanism actuator, and a control circuit. The control circuit includes control switches that allow for customization of the door handle sanitizer's spray frequency. If a timer switch is set to a timer interval, then the control circuit activates the dispenser in an interval corresponding to the selected interval. If a motion sensor switch is set to an on position, then the control circuit activates the dispensing mechanism actuator when the motion sensor detects motion.

  • Patent number: 10838998
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for evaluating a tested sample of material. The system includes an application such as a LIMS comprising master keys derived from individual test result evaluations and potentially one or more key tags, and textual comments linked to master keys for later display and/or inclusion in customized reports. Master key branching using key tags, together with user refinement of comments linked thereto, results in improved comments with increased customization over time.

  • Publication number: 20190088014
    Abstract: A method of generating model data representing an object at a predetermined resolution, the method comprising: receiving data representing a surface of the object, the data representing the surface of the object as a function of a first parameter and a second parameter; receiving data defining a relationship between the first parameter, the second parameter and a third parameter, the third parameter defining a depth associated with the surface, and at least one property; wherein the first parameter, the second parameter and the third parameter define a volumetric space based upon the surface of the object; generating the model data representing the object based upon the data defining a relationship, the data representing the surface of the object and the predetermined resolution.

  • Patent number: 10184732
    Abstract: An air to air heat exchanger includes a first and a second cooling air flow passage extending over a core depth of the heat exchanger. A heated air flow passage is arranged between the cooling air flow passages, and extends over a first percentage of the core depth. Thermally conductive separators are arranged between the heated air flow passage and each of the cooling air flow passages. A first structurally reinforced section is provided between the separators, and extends from a cooling air inlet face in the core depth direction over a second percentage of the core depth. A second structurally reinforced section is provided between the separators, and extends from a cooling air outlet face in the core depth direction over a third percentage of the core depth. The sum of the first, second, and third percentages is greater than 100 percent.

  • Patent number: 8308114
    Abstract: A mounting bracket for an electronic flight bag (EFB) includes a frame having a track and a mounting assembly that is having a base and a support that is moveably connected to the base and can be selectively fixed in position on the track. The mounting bracket may allow for singlehanded adjustment of the position of the mounting assembly with respect to track at one of at least two discrete locations along the track, or at any desired position along the track. Further, the mounting bracket may provide a single mechanism for both securing the EFB to the mounting assembly and orienting the support with respect to the base.

  • Publication number: 20080107871
    Abstract: A composite deck assembly includes a baseplate and a top plate secured to the baseplate. The baseplate is formed from a first composite matrix comprising strands of reinforcing fibers oriented in first direction and a polymer resin. The baseplate includes a plurality of ribs and a plurality of laterally extending open channels disposed between the ribs. The top plate is formed from a second composite matrix of reinforcing fibers in a polymer resin, and is secured, optionally releasably, to the baseplate so as to generally enclose at least a portion of the channels. All the reinforcing fibers in the baseplate may be limited to being either the strands oriented in the first direction or matted reinforcing fibers having a random orientation. At least one of the base section and the top plate may be translucent. The open channel configuration simplifies manufacture and lowers cost.
