Abstract: The present invention extends to wagons with a bathroom module and standalone bathroom modules. A bathroom module includes a water heater connected to a sink, a shower, and a toilet. The bathroom module further includes a protective layer on the exterior and an exhaust fan to facilitate the management of moisture that may build up within the bathroom module. The bathroom module can be connected to various systems provided by a wagon, such as water, gas, electrical, A/C, heat, and sewer systems connected to external sources. Alternatively, the bathroom module can standalone and include its own water, gas, electrical, A/C, heat, and sewer systems connected to external sources. Thus, when paired with a companion wagon, the bathroom module may be installed or removed as desired.

Abstract: A communications training system is provided having a user interface, a computer-based simulator and a performance measurement database. The user interface is configured to receive a speech communication input from the user based on a training content and the computer-based simulator is configured to transform the speech communication to a text data whereby the text data can be aligned to performance measurement database values to determine a performance measure of the speech communication. The format of the text data and the performance measurement database values enable the speech communication to be aligned with predefined performance measurement database values representing expected speech communications for that training content.

Abstract: A microfluidic device is for processing and aliquoting a sample liquid. The microfluidic device has a dividing chamber for receiving a starting volume of the sample liquid. The dividing chamber has a plurality of cavities for receiving sub-volumes of the sample liquid, the sub-volumes being usable for analytical reactions. The microfluidic device also has a microfluidic network for using the dividing chamber in a fluid-mechanical manner and at least one pump device for pumping fluids within the device. The at least one pump device and the microfluidic network are configured to pump the sample liquid, as a first phase, and a sealing liquid, as a second phase, through the microfluidic network and into the dividing chamber in order to seal the sub-volumes of the sample liquid in the cavities using the sealing liquid.

Abstract: The present invention extends to a double canopy covered wagon. Interior canopy frame supports support an interior canopy over a portion of a wagon flooring surface and under larger exterior canopy frame supports. The exterior canopy frame supports support an exterior canopy over the interior canopy. Including interior and exteriors canopies increases insulation relative to a single canopy. Further, since the exterior canopy frame supports are larger than the interior canopy frame supports, air can flow between the interior and exterior canopies. Air flow between the canopies in combination with increased insulation facilitates more effective climate control inside a wagon.

Abstract: A ladder attachment device having support frames to which a ladder rung-like standing platform is attached, The support frames are configured to mount onto adjacent ladder rungs, rendering the standing platform vertically midway between them.

Abstract: The subject of the present invention is a device for the in situ analysis of batteries by means of X-ray, synchrotron or another radiation. The device has a sample support, which is realized as a sample wheel rotatably mounted about the center axis. A plurality of sample holders, the center points of which are placed on a common circular line about the center point of the sample support, are arranged on the sample support, wherein each sample holder can be repeatedly opened and closed individually by an arrestable cover. Each sample holder has in its interior a cavity which receives the battery, which is to be examined, in a manner ideal in shape with regard to circumference, wherein the cover and the cavity have an opening for the passage of the beam. A spring, engaging in the edge region of the battery, presses the battery against the cover, wherein the spring and the edge region of the cover are embodied so as to be electrically conducting but insulated with respect to one another.
