The first shoulder strap and the second shoulder strap have a portion extending through the aperture into the internal chamber.

Abstract: Abdominal approximation devices and methods are described where one variation of the tissue securement assembly may generally include a fixation member having a length, a thickness control securement member which is adjustably securable along the length, and a frame which is adjustably securable to the thickness control securement member. The frame may have a relaxed configuration and a biasing configuration which imparts a biasing force against the thickness control securement member when in the biasing configuration such that the biasing force is applied at a distance from tissue to be approximated via the fixation member.

Abstract: A load cell includes a force transmitting element, a force sensing element converting a force acting on the force transmitting element into a measurement signal, a cover having an opening spaced apart from the force sensing element, and a gel element disposed in the opening. The force transmitting element extends into the opening and from the opening toward the force sensing element. The force transmitting element rests against the gel element in the opening.

Abstract: A rewards system operator receives one or more files from a payment card processor containing payment card transaction information for qualifying payment card transactions made with linked payment cards at one or more merchants participating in a rewards program. The rewards system operator directly debits the merchants for any fees owed under the rewards program. The rewards system operator gives users of the linked payment cards a reward for making qualifying purchases under the rewards program.

Abstract: A method of monitoring a mechanical connection between a first aircraft component and a second aircraft component. The method includes securing, using a securing device, the first aircraft component to the second aircraft component; obtaining information indicative of an acoustic signal emitted during the securing the first aircraft component to the second aircraft component; and inputting the information indicative of the acoustic signal into a machine learning model. The machine learning model is configured to provide an output indicative of a fault condition of the mechanical connection.

Abstract: A combined magnetic and bioabsorbable device for ventral hernia closure and/or tension distribution for maintenance of tissue apposition for healing, while avoiding a long-term footprint of foreign material and precluding materials spanning the interior layer of the abdominal closure where risk to visceral structures exists.

Abstract: A motor calibration system and method for a motor having a rotor, a stator, and at least one phase. The system further comprises a controller and a position detector adapted to detect a position of the rotor with respect to the stator. Wherein the controller is adapted to perform a calibration sequence to calibrate to motor by driving at least one motor phase with a motor control signal at a predetermined maximum amplitude value in a first direction with substantially no load applied on the motor, receiving a feedback signal from the at least one position detector, and determining a first calibration angle shift by measuring a difference between at least the motor control signal and the feedback signal of the at least one motor phase. The controller accounts for the first calibration angle shift when driving the motor in the first direction during normal operation.

Abstract: The stroller can be folded into a more compact space. The stroller can include a pair of handle frames that include an upper handle frame, a lower handle frame, and a handle frame folding mechanism. The stroller can also include at least one rear wheel frame, at least one front wheel frame, a first frame folding mechanism rotatably connecting the front wheel frame, the rear wheel frame and one of the lower handle frames, and a second frame folding mechanism rotatably connecting the front wheel frame, the rear wheel frame, and the other of the lower handle frames. A seat can be attached to the stroller frame in a forward or rearward facing configuration. The stroller can be compactly folded with the seat still attached to the stroller frame in both the forward and rearward facing configurations.
