Abstract: An operation room system includes a processing unit configured to receive data associated with a patient, determine a treatment for the patient, identify a control setting associated with one or more treatment devices that are (i) in communication with the processing unit, and (ii) operable to perform the treatment, and generate a display including the control setting and at least one view of the data.

Abstract: A power delivery system may include an inductive power converter comprising a shared connection to a shared voltage from a battery, multiple inductive phases, each of the multiple inductive phases configured to generate a respective voltage from the shared voltage, multiple regulated voltage connections, and one or more switches configured and arranged to selectively assign at least one of the multiple inductive phases to a regulated voltage connection selected from the multiple regulated voltage connections.

Abstract: A power management system for use in a device comprising a battery and one or more components configured to draw electrical energy from the battery may include a first power converter configured to electrically couple between charging circuitry configured to provide electrical energy for charging the battery and the one or more downstream components and a bidirectional power converter configured to electrically couple between the charging circuitry and the battery, wherein the bidirectional power converter is configured to transfer charge from the battery or transfer charge from the battery based on a power requirement of the one or more components and a power available from the first power converter.

Abstract: Disclosed is a compressor system suitable for carrying out artificial gas lift operations at an oil or gas well. Also disclosed is a method for controlling the compressor system. The methods disclosed provide the well operator with the ability to identify and maintain gas injection rates which result in the minimum production pressure. The minimum production pressure will be determined either by a bottom hole sensor or a casing pressure sensor located at the surface or any convenient location capable of monitoring pressure at the wellhead.

Abstract: An electrical chamber can include at least one wall forming a cavity, where the at least one wall includes a first end and a wall inner surface. The electrical chamber can also include a first isolation zone disposed on the inner surface at a first distance from the first end, where the first isolation zone is formed by a first proximal wall, a first distal wall, and a first isolation zone inner surface disposed between and adjacent to the first proximal wall and the first distal wall, where the first proximal wall forms a first angle with the first isolation zone inner surface, where the first distal wall forms a second angle with the first isolation zone inner surface, where the first angle is non-perpendicular. The cavity is configured to receive at least one electrical conductor. The cavity and the first isolation zone are configured to receive a potting compound.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a conduit coupler including a hub and a lock nut that thread on the hub. In one example, the lock nut includes a ground connection location including a linear wire retention slot. The ground wire can be retained in the linear wire retention slot by a grounding bracket secured at the ground connection location by a grounding screw. The grounding bracket can be captive relative to the grounding screw. The grounding bracket can include integrated spring washer functionality. The ground connection location can be provided on a tower of the lock nut.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a novel technology and method for data owners to expose data and users to gain access to data within their enterprise while maintaining data governance policies required by the data owner. An example of the technology and methods are described herein which provides a technology agnostic framework that enables sharing and management of data across repositories, data formats, applications, and systems in the enterprise.

Abstract: A vibrating tourniquet is disclosed in which one or more vibrating devices are coupled within a pliable strap portion and are activated to interrupt nerve transmissions, and supply an alternative stimulus, that decreases the sensation of pain as the needle or IV are introduced through the skin and into a vein. The vibration devices are electrically coupled to a controller mechanism and the controller mechanism may be turned on or off after the tourniquet is applied to the arm. In alternative versions, the frequency and amplitude of the vibration may be selectively increased or decreased cooperatively or separately by adjusting the controller mechanism as needed.

Abstract: A method and device to further remove snow left by a locomotive snowplow while enhancing traction and control of a locomotive or powered car. The snow removal enhancement method and device typically include a flap arranged to extend beyond a bottom edge of a locomotive snowplow over each rail. The flap loosens and removes residual snow, as well as other debris, left by the snowplow. The device handily removes snow while being constructed of the thinnest material possible.

Abstract: A method for provisioning at least one subscriber characteristic in a billing system includes the steps of creating at least one subscriber characteristic record. The method continues by creating a one subscriber record with entries for subscriber identification and inserting in a subscriber characteristic record, a first key for associating with the subscriber record. A characteristic record is created with entries for subscriber characteristics. A second key is inserted in the subscriber characteristic record. The second key is associated with the characteristic record so that the characteristic record is associated via the second key to the subscriber characteristic record that has been associated via the first key. A characteristic group to characteristic record is created for holding characteristics for a group of subscribers. A third primary key is inserted in the characteristic group.
