Patent number: 10773899Abstract: A conveying/loading apparatus includes a first conveying apparatus having a first delivery part, with a blocking apparatus being disposed close to an output end of the first delivery part, and a second conveying apparatus having a second delivery part, with multiple supports being disposed at intervals on the second delivery part, and regions between the supports forming accommodating spaces for loading objects. An object is delivered to the output end of the first delivery part, and a first detection sensor detects a position of the object. A second detection sensor detects whether a support of the second delivery part has moved to a loading position, and whether the accommodating space between two adjacent supports is in an idle state. The first detection sensor causes the blocked object to pass, when the first detection sensor and the second detection sensor both have signals.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 2018Date of Patent: September 15, 2020Assignee: ILLINOIS TOOL WORKS INC.Inventors: Xinhai Wu, Lei Zhao, Yujie Wang, Fengchun Li, Bei Li, Zhen Liu

Publication number: 20140220048Abstract: Mammalian host cells for use in a cell-mediated tranfection process, which contain an RNAi molecule and an expression vector for a pro-apoptotic protein. The method includes inducing apoptotic cell (AC) death in mammalian cells that contain an RNAi molecule capable of downregulating a chosen target gene. Living cells expressing the target gene are then exposed to the ACs. The ACs are processed by the living cells, and the RNAi molecule in the ACs downregulates the expression of the target gene in living cells.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 20, 2013Publication date: August 7, 2014Applicant: Loma Linda UniversityInventors: Fengchun Li, Alan P.
