Abstract: Disclosed herein is a laundry treatment cabinet that includes a device for treating the interior air. The disclosed laundry treatment cabinet includes a housing; at least one interior space for receiving laundry with an access opening that can be closed by means of a door; an assembly for generating or conveying the process air through the interior space; a device for treating the interior air, wherein the device comprises a reactor chamber with a catalyst means attached therein; and a control apparatus for activating and deactivating the assembly for generating the process air. The laundry treatment cabinet also includes a flow generator for conveying the air through the reactor chamber.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to a remote center of motion robot for medical image scanning and image-guided targeting, hereinafter referred to as the “Euler” robot. The Euler robot allows for ultrasound scanning for 3-Dimensional (3-D) image reconstruction and enables a variety of robot-assisted image-guided procedures, such as needle biopsy, percutaneous therapy delivery, image-guided navigation, and facilitates image-fusion with other imaging modalities. The Euler robot can also be used with other handheld medical imaging probes, such as gamma cameras for nuclear imaging, or for targeted delivery of therapy such as high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU). 3-D ultrasound probes may also be used with the Euler robot to provide automated image-based targeting for biopsy or therapy delivery. In addition, the Euler robot enables the application of special motion-based imaging modalities, such as ultrasound elastography.

Abstract: A multi-unit hoist apparatus is provided having an overload arrangement in the form of reversible pressure medium cylinders connected to the fixed end of each hoist unit in the apparatus. Appropriate controls are incorporated into the pressure medium supply to each unit, whereby if the load becomes unbalanced the unit subjected to an overload is relieved when the overload reaches a specific preset level.
