Abstract: A proppant container facilitates the transportation of wet sand for use in a hydraulic fracturing operation. A metering conveyor is positioned between a blender tub and a proppant motive mechanism, such as a conveyor or wash system that receives discharge direct from proppant containers of the type normally used to transport sand in support of a hydraulic fracturing operation. The metering conveyor is fitted with equipment including a knife-edge gate that may be used to facilitate flow control operations.

Abstract: The present invention relates to antibodies against influenza neuraminidase, compositions containing the antibodies and methods of using the antibodies.

Abstract: A proppant container facilitates the transportation of wet sand for use in a hydraulic fracturing operation. The proppant container is provided with a system for dislodging the wet sand for subsequent use. This may be done by use of a vibrator or an umbrella valve. In another aspect, the proppant container may be used in combination with a rack having a wash system that slurries the proppant for delivery to a blender tub without necessarily resorting to use of a conveyor belt.

Abstract: The present invention provides novel engineered Ebolavirus GP proteins and polypeptides, as well as scaffolded vaccine compositions that display the engineered proteins. The invention also provides methods of using such engineered Ebolavirus GP proteins and vaccine compositions in various therapeutic applications, e.g., for preventing or treating Ebolavirus infections.

Abstract: The invention is in the field of emergency lighting devices and power supply of emergency lighting devices. A LED converter for an emergency lighting unit comprises a LED driver for supplying a current to a LED lighting device, an energy storage interface for connecting an energy storage device, a charging circuit for charging the energy storage, and a control circuit. The energy storage interface is configured to connect at least two different types of energy storage devices. The charging circuit sets at least one energy storage management parameter according to the type of energy storage device connected by the energy storage interface. The control circuit determines the type of energy storage device connected by the energy storage interface and controls the charging circuit to set the energy storage management parameter according to the determined type of energy storage device.

Abstract: A proppant container facilitates the transportation of wet sand for use in a hydraulic fracturing operation. The proppant container is part of an overall system that is used to move sand for use as proppant, and is fitted with a vibration system that facilitates the discharge of sand from the container.

Abstract: Techniques for layout-agnostic complex document processing are described. A document processing service can analyze documents that do not adhere to defined layout rules in an automated manner to determine the content and meaning of a variety of types of segments within the documents. The service may chunk a document into multiple chunks, and operate upon the chunks in parallel by identifying segments within each chunk, classifying the segments into segment types, and processing the segments using special-purpose analysis engines adapted for the analysis of particular segment types to generate results that can be aggregated into an overall output for the entire document that captures the meaning and context of the document text.

Abstract: An emergency unit (1) is provided, comprising input terminals (I1, I2) for supplying the emergency unit (1) with AC power, a battery charging unit (40) designed for charging a battery unit (30) of the emergency unit (1) by using the AC power, a DC/DC converter (10), supplied by the battery unit (30) and designed to provide DC power to DC power output terminals (O1, O2) designed for supplying power to emergency lighting means (EL), a control unit (20) designed for being supplied with a signal indicating the state of the AC power and for outputting commands to the battery charging unit (40) and to the DC/DC converter (10). The control unit (20) can assume a state (S6) in which it causes the DC/DC converter (10) to provide DC power based on the battery unit and at the same time start the operation of the battery charging unit (40).

Abstract: The invention proposes a lighting device, in particular an emergency lighting device. The lighting device includes a first housing (2), a lighting means (12), for example an LED arranged at the first housing (2) and an electronic circuitry accommodated in the first housing (2) for operating the lighting means (12). A second housing (3) of the lighting device accommodates an energy storage means (13) such as a rechargeable battery, wherein the first housing (2) and the second housing (3) are arranged spaced apart. An interconnecting means (4) mechanically connects the first housing (2) and the second housing (3) in an elastic manner and also connects electrically the electronic circuitry and the energy storage means (13). The interconnecting means (4) of the lighting device of a preferred embodiment comprises a cable which is overmoulded to provide compressive strength in an axial direction of the cable.
