Abstract: A printing process for printing with ink an image on a glove formed by a dipping process, wherein the image is first printed on a former and transferred to the glove during dipping.

Abstract: The present invention provides a two piece, single use, medical examination device comprising: a high resolution endo-scope camera and a single use body, wherein the body comprises i) a handle portion for gripping ii) a blade portion for introducing into a patient, and iii) a portion for detachably coupling to a mobile display device; wherein the endoscope camera is fixed within the body, and wherein the body is made of a single material, wherein the material is one of polyethylene, polypropylene, nylon, polystyrene, high impact polystyrene (HIP), polyurethane, polycarbonate, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, thermoplastic elastomer, acrylic, or polyester.

Abstract: A thermally conductive interface device produced from a thermally conductive interface material is disclosed. The device may be employed in a battery system of an electric or hybrid vehicle. The thermally conductive interface material comprises a composition of at least one silicone base, at least one inorganic filler, at least one silicone oil, a least one peroxide cross-linking agent, and/or at least one of a flame retardant and a colorant. The inorganic fillers and/or the silicone oils may be functionalized or non-functionalized. The silicone base may be a high consistency rubber (HCR) silicone.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an antimicrobial facemask, use of the antimicrobial facemask and a process for manufacture of the facemask.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an antimicrobial aqueous composition suitable for use as a sealant, sizing, coating or varnish, use thereof, and a method of manufacture thereof. The invention also provides the use of the antimicrobial aqueous composition, and an article coated with the antimicrobial aqueous composition.

Abstract: A horticultural container for attaching to a railing, including a planter body, at least one leg extending downward from the planter body, and a connecting device. The planter body rests on top of the top rail of the railing, while the legs straddle the top rail. The connecting device attaches to each leg below the top rail, and receives balusters of the railing.

Abstract: A cutting device includes a body and a cutting blade assembly. The cutting blade assembly includes a cutting blade having a cutting edge and is reciprocally secured to the body. Movement of the cutting blade assembly from a retracted position to an engaged position causes the cutting edge to engage a line, such as a monofilament trimmer line, to cut the line to a desired length. Tension may be created in the line prior to cutting by positioning the line in a non-linear trough in the body.

Abstract: A solid precursor delivery assembly generally includes a container having upper and lower portions and chambers defined within the container, including an inlet chamber, an outlet chamber, and first and second precursor chambers. The first and second precursor chambers are configured for holding precursor material within the container. Sintered frits are fixedly coupled and sealed to an interior portion of the container, and define at least part of the chambers within the container. At least one of the sintered frits is configured for retaining precursor material thereon within the first precursor chamber, and at least one of the sintered frits is configured for retaining precursor material thereon within the second precursor chamber. An inlet is coupled to the container for delivering carrier gas into the container, and an outlet is coupled to the container for use in removing vaporized precursor material and carrier gas from the container.

Abstract: Certain embodiments of the present invention relate to arcuate saddles typically used to anchor and suspend insulated or non-insulated pipes. Rounded corners on the saddles facilitate comfortably introducing and placing the saddles into hangers as well as improving use. Certain embodiments of the present invention involve methods of manufacturing arcuate saddles with rounded corners.

Abstract: A PON in which parallel optical fiber paths are provided between dual OLTs and the ONTs, one of the optical fiber paths providing an active connection and the other optical fiber path providing a standby connection. Respective VLANs may be formed over the parallel optical fiber paths. If performance indicators, for example Ethernet continuity check messages, indicate that an ONT is no longer in communication with the OLT then data may be sent via the VLAN associated with the standby connection.
