Publication number: 20230312630Abstract: A process for synthesizing phosphoramidites by immobilizing a phosphitylating agent on an activated resin to create a loaded resin and then bringing the loaded resin into contact with a suitable substrate. The phosphoramidites are synthesized within minutes from applying the starting materials. Thus, the process makes it possible to create specific phosphoramidites on-demand as they are needed in further applications. The substrates to be applied are mostly nucleosides, thus to create nucleoside phosphoramidites for subsequent oligonucleotide synthesis.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 15, 2021Publication date: October 5, 2023Inventors: Alexander Hjortlund SANDAHL, Thuy Jane Dinh NGUYEN, Kurt Vesterager GOTHELF

Publication number: 20230150102Abstract: An electric carpet stapler comprises a trigger and switch assembly that has an actuation caused by a change of state of a sensor, which causes the sensor to send a signal to a control circuit to begin a process to supply power to a winding. The trigger and switch assembly includes a trigger that moves in a trigger actuation direction to move a sensor actuator in a sensor actuation direction, causing a change of state in the sensor, which causes the control circuit to begin the process to supply power to the winding. The trigger and switch assembly may also include a toggle.

Patent number: 11447982Abstract: A latch system for locking of a door to a cabinet comprises a latch receiver secured to the cabinet and having first and second ramps and a rest surface. The latch system further comprises a door latch comprising a handle, a shank coupled to the handle, and a cam latch supported by the shank. In response to rotation of the handle (in either rotational directions), the shank and the cam latch rotate to cause a lock arm of the cam latch to slidably interface with the first and second ramps of the latch receiver, and to seat against the rest surface, thus placing the door latch in a locked position. The latch receiver can have a plurality of ramps, and the lock arm can have a plurality of cam surfaces, so that it can be locked from both rotational directions. The door latch can have a compression load adjustment mechanism.Type: GrantFiled: March 26, 2019Date of Patent: September 20, 2022Assignee: Raytheon CompanyInventor: Ly Dinh Nguyen
