Abstract: A joist hanger includes a mounting bracket and a joist retention member. The mounting bracket includes one or more vertical flanges, one or more horizontal flanges, and a pivot block extending in a first direction from the one or more vertical flanges. The pivot block includes one or more pivot features. The joist retention member is pivotally connected to the mounting bracket and includes first and second vertical support members. Each of the first and second vertical support members includes a pivot feature. The pivot features of the first and second vertical support members are configured to cooperate with the one or more pivot features of the pivot block to pivotally connect the joist retention member to the mounting bracket such that joist retention member can pivot about a generally horizontal pivot axis when the joist hanger is mounted on a wall.

Abstract: A wearable, open and pliable conforming MRI receiver coil system having an assembly of MRI imaging coils, each configured in a framework to simultaneously apply or position MRI receiver antennae and medical implements such as ultrasound transducers against the skull or skin of a patient. The system is configured to perform an MRI imaging and operation of the one or more medical implements simultaneously.

Abstract: A wearable, open and adjustable MRI head coil system having an assembly of support members, panels, or portions defining one or more access openings. The support members, panels, or portions can support, house, or otherwise include radiofrequency receiver antennae or imaging coils such that the assembly is positionable or wearable by a patient for MRI scanning. The radiofrequency receiver antennae or imaging coils, and other devices can be simultaneously in contact with a patient's head, thereby enabling use during diagnostic, therapeutic, surgical or other interventional procedures.

Abstract: A system for a solid oxide fuel cell stack disposed between and in contact with a fixed top compression plate and a movable compression plate. At least one tension rod can be inserted through an opening on a movable locking plate, wherein the top end of the tension rod is connected to the bottom of the movable compression plate and the bottom end of the tension rod is connected to a fixed bottom compression plate. At least one nut can be used in conjunction each tension rod and disposed below the movable locking plate to secure the movable locking plate in position. Additionally, at least one spring can be disposed around the at least one tension rod and connected to the bottom of the movable compression plate and the top of the fixed bottom compression plate. Finally, at least one pneumatic cylinder can be in contact with the bottom of the movable locking plate and the fixed bottom compression plate.

Abstract: The invention generally relates to agrochemical compositions and methods of making and using same. Specifically, the disclosed agrochemical compositions comprise high molecular weight non-polymeric residues or polymer backbones, and pesticide residues covalently attached thereto. Such compositions can be useful in, for example, controlling plant growth. This abstract is intended as a scanning tool for purposes of searching in the particular art and is not intended to be limiting of the present invention.

Abstract: A device comprising a first solid oxide fuel cell and a second solid oxide fuel cell. The first solid oxide fuel cell comprises a first anode, a first cathode and a first electrolyte, wherein the first electrolyte is positioned between and connected to the first anode and the first cathode. The second solid oxide fuel cell comprises a second anode, a second cathode and a second electrolyte, wherein the second electrolyte is positioned between and connected to the second anode and the second cathode. In this device the cathode distance between the first cathode and the second cathode is less than the anode distance between the first anode and the second anode.
