An example motor vehicle includes a body, a door configured to slide relative to the body between an open position and a closed position, and a bracket connected to the door. The bracket includes a slot. Further, a locking arm is mounted to the body, and, when the door is in the closed position, the locking arm is configured to move such that the locking arm is received in the slot.

Abstract: A triangular-shaped snow shovel and a snow removal method are described. The snow shovel can include a reinforced handlebar, equipped with a soft foam grip, the handlebar extends to the snow shovel attached with two pins and two clicks to hold the snow shovel. The snow shovel has two sides that end in a rounded shape in the shape of skies to prevent the shovel from getting stuck. The method may include the triangular snow shovel and a different method of removing snow without it accumulating in front of the shovel due to its triangular shape which causes snow to come off one side of the shovel.

Abstract: A load orienting device and method of operating the load orienting device are disclosed. The load orienting device includes a frame, first and second posts disposed on the frame, and first and second propellers disposed on the first and second posts, respectively. The first and second posts are movable to adjust a distance between the first and second propellers and a controller operates the first and second propellers to adjust an orientation of the load orienting device relative to a vertical axis of the load orienting device.

Abstract: The disclosure generally relates to an exemplary hinge of an enclosure that can house an electrical network protection element and provide protection to the electrical network protection element against damage in various environments such as when the enclosure is placed in an underground vault that may be flooded during rain, or when a liquid (e.g., oil) comes into contact with the enclosure. The hinge may include two portions, one portion attached to one or more doors of the enclosure and one portion attached to a housing of the enclosure. The hinge may be configured such that it may be adjusted in multiple directions (for example, beyond one plane of rotation that typical hinges may offer), and thus allow for greater adjustability of the one or more doors of the enclosure relative to the housing of the enclosure.

Abstract: Disclosed herein include systems, methods, compositions, and kits for in situ readout of barcodes, such as DNA barcodes. Barcode constructs containing a promoter (e.g., a phage promoter) that is inactive in live cells can be integrated in the genomes of cells. Cells can be fixed, and phage RNA polymerase can be used for transcription of the barcode to RNA transcripts. The RNA transcripts can be detected using, for example, fluorescent imaging and used to determine barcode sequences.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition in the form of a mixture comprising F-type fly ash, a reactive silicon source, a setting accelerator and a light aggregate with a density of less than 900 kg/m3 and a mechanical strength of at least 0.08 MPa, and the uses thereof to obtain light and fireproof construction materials.

Abstract: A refill bottle and system for an electronic cigarette. The refill bottle and system can comprise a refill bottle. The refill bottle can comprise a bottle housing, a bottle cavity defined by the bottle housing, and a refill assembly coupled to the bottle housing. The refill assembly can comprise a bottle stopper, a movable assembly, a spring, a filling projection, and a projection opening. The refill assembly can be configured to cover the filling projection and the projection opening when no force is acting upon the refill assembly. The refill system can further comprise an eCig tank comprising a tank side wall, a tank reservoir defined by the tank side wall, and a self-sealing port coupled to the tank side wall.

Abstract: A non-liquid immersed transformer including a magnetic core having a winding axis and at least two coil windings wound around the magnetic core along the winding axis. One or more cooling tubes made of dielectric material are arranged inside at least one of the coil windings to cool down the coil winding using dielectric fluid flowing through the dielectric cooling tubes. Each cooling tube is wound continuously forming one or more complete loops around the core.

Abstract: Dry-type transformers with insulating modules are disclosed. Example insulating modules include dielectric screens and supporting blocks. The supporting blocks support the dielectric screens over windings of the transformer. The dielectric screens have first substantially even portions configured to adapt in spaces defined by corresponding cylindrical barriers arranged between first and second windings of the transformers and second substantially even portions, transversal to the first portions and to the first windings of the transformers and extending outwards from the first portions and beyond the supporting blocks. The dielectric screens partly extend around a winding.

Abstract: Non-liquid immersed transformers and methods of measuring aging degree of the transformers' insulation are disclosed. The transformers comprise a solid insulation inside the conductive coil and one or more floating electrodes in the solid insulation. At least a part of the conductive coil and the one or more floating electrodes may form one or more capacitive elements, respectively. An electrical parameter, e.g. complex permittivity, of the capacitive element is measured and the aging degree is calculated as a function of the electrical parameter measurement.

Abstract: An imaging examination analysis method includes receiving a patient data set for a patient including measurements for a set of variables relating to a chronic medical condition, such as aortic stenosis (AS), obtained by an imaging examination of the patient. For one or more future time intervals, a likelihood is generated of a predetermined grade of the chronic medical condition (e.g. likelihood of severe AS grade) for the patient at the future time interval. The likelihood is generated using a classifier trained on training data sets for past patients. A follow-up imaging examination date recommendation is determined based on the likelihoods. An inconsistent measurement for the patient may be identified as a measurement whose value compared with a prior measurement for the same variable is consistent with an improvement in the chronic medical condition of the patient between the time of the prior measurement and a present time.

Abstract: A polycrystalline magnetocaloric material based on thermally annealed Fe100-xRhx melt-spun ribbons with chemical composition x in the interval 48?x?52 at. % and the bcc CsCl-type crystal structure (B2) and method for manufacturing the same. The material has improved magnetocaloric properties associated to first-order magneto-elastic phase transition compared to bulk alloys of similar chemical composition manufactured by conventional melting techniques; exhibiting both low-magnetic field induced giant magnetocaloric effects and enhanced refrigeration capacity close to the room temperature range, due to the fast increase of a magnetic entropy change at low fields that is followed by a broad table-like magnetic entropy change as function in the temperature curve.

Abstract: A delivery receiving container for receiving and securely storing packages, the delivery receiving container comprising multiple independently accessible and lockable compartments that can be customized to the size of the package received.

Dividers can be moved as needed to accommodate different package size for efficient use of space. The adjustability of the dividers and the multiple independent access compartment lids allow the delivery receiving container to receive multiple independent deliveries from different delivery companies.
