  • Patent number: 9460746
    Abstract: An air-bearing surface of a slider is coated with a photoresist having a high optical absorbance at or near an operational wavelength of the slider. Light is directed at a target wavelength through an entry of a waveguide integrated into the slider. The light exiting the waveguide forms a feature through the photoresist, the feature proximate a near-field transducer of the slider. A sub-micron pattern is formed using the feature.

  • Patent number: 9439772
    Abstract: An artificial disc is provided which more closely matches the movement of the natural spine. The artificial disc uses one or more projections and corresponding recesses to provide a sliding articulation. The artificial joint is inherently stable in that compressive forces placed on the disc such as the weight placed upon the joint or the tension of surrounding tissues urges the joint towards a neutral position and not farther away from a neutral position.

  • Patent number: 9323751
    Abstract: Access to documents by parties can be controlled as follows. First, access can be controlled in accordance with access counters associated with the parties, where the documents have one or more versions. Second, access can be controlled in accordance with access levels associated with the parties. The access level of each party is one of a first access level, a second access level, a third access level, or a fourth access level. The first, second, third, and fourth access levels are ordered from the first access level to the fourth access level such that the first access level provides a greatest degree of access to the documents and the fourth access level provides a least degree of access to the documents. Third, access can be controlled in accordance with placement of organizations within a hierarchy of organizations, where the parties are organized over the organizations.

  • Publication number: 20160051087
    Abstract: A grilling oven for foodstuffs comprising an oven casing having rows of apertures/gaps in the lower section uniformly facing various directions. The grilling oven has three layers disposed apart from each other by the supporting bars attached to the plates/grids in the bottom-to-the-top order. The plates/grids include the plate/grid containing the burning materials, the plate/grid is used to scatter and increase the heat and prevent the fat and nutritious juices from overflowing to the burning materials, the plate/grid containing the foodstuff to be grilled. These plates/grids and supporting bars are removable from the oven casing since the diameters of the plates/grids are smaller than the internal diameter of the oven wall. The oven cover has various rows of ventilation holes disposed uniformly throughout the cover to adjust and guideā€”distribute the heat in contact with the foodstuff more uniformly so that the foodstuff will not be burnt out.
