  • Publication number: 20110134441
    Abstract: A system and method for customizing and printing custom designed stickers allows a user to select almost unlimited designs (e.g., colors, patterns, artwork, photographs) and to print the selected designs on a blank sticker sheet. The system and method thus allows a retail store to stock blank sticker sheets, avoids the inefficiencies of having to stock stickers with a wide variety of unique colors and patterns, and allows a user to create stickers with a user created design. Although the exemplary embodiments show alphabet stickers, the system and method may be used to custom design and print any type of sticker including, without limitation, message stickers, frame stickers and icon stickers.

  • Patent number: 7763021
    Abstract: An intramedullary nail assembly comprises an intramedullary nail component (2) al, the nail component having at least one opening (14, 18) in its wall, and a fixation sleeve which has at least one opening (32) extending through it. One of the fixation sleeve and the nail component has a hollow bore so that the other of the sleeve and the nail component can be fitted within it in a coaxial sliding arrangement, with the openings in the wall of the nail component aligned with the openings in the fixation sleeve. A fixation pin (19) is inserted transversely through the openings in the wall of the nail component and the fixation sleeve when the said openings are aligned. An actuator (50) is used to cause the fixation sleeve to move axially relative to the nail component to cause a fixation pin inserted through the aligned openings in the nail component and the fixation sleeve to be gripped.

  • Publication number: 20090061897
    Abstract: The invention describes a tracking, security and status monitoring system (TSS) and modular tracking and security device (MTSD). The tracking and security system includes at least one MTSD adapted for containment within a shipment within a vehicle and for operative communication with a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) (such as the global positioning system (GPS)), cellular networks and a monitoring system. In various embodiments, the MTSD is modular allowing for different sensor systems to be configured to the system, is operative to optimize power consumption and network data usage in the absence of a security event or inquiry from the monitoring system and/or allows the MTSD to recognize when it is within an airborne aircraft to comply with aviation regulations with respect to the operation of RF devices within aircraft. In addition, the system, by using both GNSS and cellular technology (ie.

  • Publication number: 20070208111
    Abstract: The invention is directed to a process and more particularly, to utilizing polymer solutions to make thick film compositions. In one embodiment the process is directed to the formation of photoimageable thick film compositions for use in photo-patterning methods to make photoimageable electrodes in flat panel display applications, including plasma display panels (PDP). Polymer solutions are obtained by directly polymerizing desired monomers in a desired solvent to form a desired polymer, rather than by dissolving a pre-made polymer in a desired solvent. Other ingredients are added to the polymer solution to directly form thick film pastes, including photoimageable thick film pastes.
