  • Patent number: 11958361
    Abstract: A military vehicle includes an engine, an energy storage system, an accessory drive coupled to the engine and including an air compressor and a first motor, a second motor coupled to an axle, and a clutch positioned between the engine and the second motor. The clutch is spring-biased into engagement with the engine and pneumatically disengaged by an air supply selectively provided thereto based on operation of the air compressor. In an engine mode, (i) the clutch does not receive the air supply such that the engine is coupled to the second motor and (ii) the engine drives (a) the accessory drive and (b) the axle through the second motor. In the electric mode, (i) the first motor drives the air compressor to compress air to facilitate supplying the air supply to the clutch to disengage the clutch and decouple the engine from the second motor and (ii) the second motor drives the axle.

  • Patent number: 11918223
    Abstract: Disclosed are devices and methods for providing simple, fast, effective, and repeatable anastomotic graft connections, which can reduce (or eliminate) risks associated with graft anastomoses, thus improving patient outcomes. An example embodiment is an anastomotic graft connection device that includes a connector and a cuff. The connector includes a first flared end and a second flared end. The first flared end is configured to be inserted into a vessel (e.g., blood vessel). At least the second flared end is configured to be attached to a graft. The cuff includes an inner ring and an outer ring. The inner ring is configured to secure the graft to at least the second flared end of the connector, and the outer ring is configured to exert force on the vessel to seal the first flared end of the connector against an inner wall of the vessel.

  • Publication number: 20230191393
    Abstract: A bilirubin assay system comprises a test card with a bilirubin test strip upon which a blood sample has been deposited, the bilirubin test strip comprising plasma from the blood sample. The bilirubin assay system further includes a mobile device with a camera, configured to capture an image of the test card that comprises the plasma on the bilirubin test strip and the set of calibration images. The system determines first and second calibration images, the first and the second calibration images having saturation values closest to a saturation value of the plasma on the bilirubin test strip. The system further determines a bilirubin level of the plasma on the bilirubin test strip based at least in part on interpolating a first color distance between the first calibration image and the plasma and a second color distance between the second calibration image and the plasma.
