  • Publication number: 20240099856
    Abstract: A spinal bone graft includes one or more cortical bone portions forming a first unit. The first unit includes an engagement surface for contacting bone, and a mating surface. The mating surface forms at least one first undercut. The bone graft also includes one or more cortical bone portions forming a second unit. The second unit includes an engagement surface for contacting bone, and a mating surface. The mating surface forms either at least one second undercut, or at least one connector. In the former, at least one connector is received in each of the first and second undercuts to interconnect the first and second units. In the latter, the at least one connector of the second unit is received in the first undercut of the first unit to interconnect the first unit and second unit.

  • Patent number: 10609442
    Abstract: A method and system for annotating playable media files is provided. A virtual clip is associated with first and second locations in the playable media file. The first and second locations together define a clip of the playable media file occurring between the first and second locations. The clip is displayed on a computing device of a user and a first user input associated with the virtual clip is received. The first user input is determined to conform to a predetermined format defining taxonomy tags. One or more taxonomy tags are identified from the user input and the virtual clip is associated, in an account of the user, with each of the one or more taxonomy tags identified from the user input.

  • Publication number: 20060108221
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for improving measurement accuracy in a gas monitoring system is provided. The apparatus can be connected to a plurality of gas sample lines each containing a gas sample. The gas samples are routed through a number of delivery channels which are fewer in number than the plurality of sample lines. Each delivery channel is alternatively coupled to a detector which identifies contaminants present in the gas samples. Each delivery channel includes a voltage sensitive orifice (VSO). The VSO's are operated by a controller and provide gas samples at a constant flow and a constant pressure to the detector independent of the length of the gas sample line being measured.

  • Publication number: 20050183490
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and method for sampling a gas flow to measure one or more contaminants within a semiconductor processing tool. The system includes a portable unit containing one or more dry traps, Tenax traps and, if desired, wet impingers. The unit is coupled to a gas flow in a clean room and the dry traps. Tenax traps and wet impingers measure contaminants contained in the gas supply for a determined sampling interval. When the sampling interval is done, the unit is sent to an analysis facility for processing.
