The user activates and controls the cleaning unit by operating a cleaning switch on the armrest.

Abstract: A foldable display and an image processing method thereof are disclosed. The foldable display comprises a display module, a memory, a sensor module, and a processing unit. The sensor module senses a bending state of the display module. The processing unit generates adjusted images according to an image signal, and stores those adjusted images to a plurality of memory addresses of the memory. The processing unit selects a reading address from those memory addresses according the bending state. The processing unit selects a corresponding adjusted image from the memory according to the reading address and outputs the corresponding adjusted image to the display module.

Abstract: A linear motion guide device includes a slider slidably attached onto a guide rail, an end cap having an inner side attached to the slider, the end cap includes an inlet for receiving a lubricating fluid, two chambers formed in two legs, a passage communicating with the chambers, a guiding pathway communicating with the inlet and the passage for separating the passage into two passageways which are communicating with the chambers of the end cap respectively, and a follower is slidably engaged in the guiding pathway and movable toward either the passageways of the end cap for partially blocking and for limiting the flowing of the lubricating fluid to the passageways of the end cap.

Abstract: A glove packaging comprises a container for holding the gloves and a barrier positioned to cover at least a portion of an opening in the container.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments of apparatus and method for obtaining one or more portions of biological tissue (“micrografts”) to form grafts are provided. For example, a hollow tube can be inserted into tissue at a donor site, and a pin provided within the tube can facilitate controlled removal of the micrograft from the tube. Micrografts can be harvested and directly implanted into an overlying biocompatible matrix through coordinated motion of the tube and pin. A needle can be provided around the tube to facilitate a direct implantation of a micrograft into a remote recipient site or matrix. The exemplary apparatus can include a plurality of such tubes and pins for simultaneous harvesting and/or implanting of a plurality of micrografts. The harvested micrografts can have a small dimension, e.g., less than about 1 mm, which can promote healing of the donor site and/or viability of the harvested tissue.

Abstract: A pair of pants for a person with limited mobility, which is convenient for the person sitting in a urinal chair to urinate, includes a pants body and a zipper. The pants body has a waistband, two pants legs, a crotch and an opening defined between the waistband and the crotch of the pants body. The zipper has two rows of teeth at two opposite edges of the opening and a zipper head moving along the two rows of the teeth. The zipper head is pulled to move upwardly from the crotch to the waistband of the pants body to open the zipper. Therefore, when the zipper head is positioned at the waistband of the pants body, the zipper is fully opened; in contrast, when the zipper head is positioned at the crotch of the pants body, the zipper is fully closed.

Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure provide a dual-homing protection method and device. In the dual-homing protection method, a forwarding item synchronizing channel and a data transfer channel are established between two Provider Edge (PE) devices in a dual-homing node, a Pseudo Wire (PW) and a Label Switched Path (LSP) protection group bearing the PW are established between a network side peer PE device and the two PE devices in the dual-homing node, which are taken as a logical device, so as to implement LSP protection within a network. The present disclosure may enable the protection within a network to be independent of access link protection. Subsequently, the management is simple.
