  • Publication number: 20240245529
    Abstract: Embodiments provide an adjustable cage template for determining a cage for use in a spinal surgery. The adjustable cage template may include top and bottom cage template, control supports. A configuration of the cage template may be modified and sensors may measure forces applied to the cage template during the modification of the cage template configuration. Modifications to the cage template include rotation of the top cage template relative to the bottom cage template, vertical translation of the top cage template relative to the bottom cage template, or both rotation and vertical translation of the top and bottom cage templates. Information associated with measurements from the sensors may be output to determine whether a current configuration of the cage template is optimal and a final cage template may be selected for the spinal surgery based at least in part on the output information.

  • Patent number: 8959593
    Abstract: A system transfers applications and datasets (files) from a server to a client device and assigns to each file a lease key that will expire at a specified time. A file cannot be accessed unless its lease key is validated. Upon expiration of a lease key, the client device will connect to the server to determine if the lease key may be renewed. If the lease key may be renewed, a new lease key is created and access to the associated application or dataset is restored. If the lease key may not be renewed, the file may be deleted or rendered inaccessible. If rendered inaccessible, the file may be restored in the future without having to re-transmit it from the server to the client device. The server may also revoke a lease key before it expires.

  • Patent number: 8579060
    Abstract: The disclosure generally relates to a heat exchanger apparatus having first and second heat exchangers arranged in a parallel configuration to receive a first fluid (e.g., a hot fluid) to be subjected to a heat exchange operation (e.g., cooling of the hot fluid). The first and second heat exchangers are further configured in a series configuration with respect to the flow of a second fluid to be used as a heat exchange medium (e.g., a cold fluid to be heated by the first, hot fluid). The heat exchanger apparatus can be used as a radiator (e.g., engine coolant heat exchanger) for a motorized vehicle, in particular a heavy vehicle intended for use in relatively hot ambient environments (e.g., an armored fighting vehicle adapted for desert use at ambient temperatures above about 100° F.). The disclosure also relates to methods of using the heat exchanger apparatus, for example in the motorized vehicle setting.
