Abstract: A sealant spreader device fills voids around a drilled hole with sealant in glued-in-rod (GIR) structures. A liquid sealant may be applied to the base of a drilled hole. A sealant spreader device is then inserted to the base of the drilled hole, through the sealant. The sealant spreader device is then withdrawn while rotating. The sealant spreader device includes winged sections having contours which force the sealant radially outward toward walls of the hole, into any voids around the circumference of the drilled hole, and leaves a thin layer of sealant around the circumference of the drilled hole.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to medical devices and, more particularly, to a gas mixing system for a medical ventilator. A gas mixer is provided to adjust the oxygen concentration of environmental air for a blower-based ventilator, by adjusting the mix of air upstream of the ventilator and providing the mixed air to the ventilator's environmental air inlet.

Abstract: This invention provides a digital information protecting method executed in an author and a client computer, both having a predetermined information processing software to process a piece of digital information. In the author computer, receive a content key from a server and encrypt the piece of digital information by the content key. Encrypt the content key by a predetermined key encrypting process. Transmit the encrypted information and encrypted content key to the client computer. In the client computer, decrypt the encrypted content key by a corresponding predetermined decrypting process. Decrypt the encrypted information by the content key so that the piece of digital information can be used by the client computer. No matter the client computer is on-line or off-line, it can get the key and decrypt the piece of digital information.
