Abstract: An HVAC system is provided. Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to heat exchangers having tubing with a reduced diameter compared to traditional systems. In one embodiment, a ducted HVAC system comprises an outdoor heat exchanger with tubing that has an outer diameter of eight millimeters (8 mm) or less and an indoor heat exchanger with tubing that has an outer diameter of nine millimeters (9 mm) or less. Additional systems, devices, and methods are also disclosed.

Abstract: A tube end (14) of a barrel (12) of an injector (1) includes a tubular portion (921) on which a spiral projection (925) is formed, and an inner circumferential surface of the tubular portion is a female tapered surface (922). A small-diameter portion (16) is formed between a liquid storing portion (15) into which a plunger (18) is inserted and the tubular portion (921). A base end (21) of a liquid collection needle (20) is fluid-tightly connected to the small-diameter portion (16), and a leading end of the liquid collection needle (20) protrudes from the tube end (14).

Abstract: The medical liquid collection tip (1) includes a male member (11) that is to be inserted into a tube end (154) of an injector (150) at one end, and includes a liquid collection needle (20) at the other end. A flow path (8) penetrates through the tip (1) in a lengthwise direction thereof and causes the male member (11) and the liquid collection needle (20) to be in communication. The outer circumferential surface (12) of the male member (11) is a male tapered surface with an outer diameter that becomes smaller as the leading end is approached, and is configured to be fluid-tightly connected to the female tapered surface of the tube end (154).

Abstract: A lip categorizing method uses the size and shape of the lips as viewed from the front of the face as a first categorization index and the three-dimensional form of the lips as a second categorization index. The lip categorizing map is composed of a first coordinate axis showing the degree of the first categorization index and a second coordinate axis showing the degree of the second categorization index and has a coordinate system in which the first and second coordinate axes are orthogonal. It also generates makeup information for two-dimensionally correcting the lips of a subject based on preset reference by setting a plurality of points for determining the form features of lips on an image that depicts the lips, and judges the form features of the lips of the subject based on analytical values of the two-dimensional features of the lips measured from the set points.
