Abstract: A siphon priming device that may be releasably and sealingly connected with a first fluid container and usable to cause a liquid to be transferred from the first container into a second fluid container. Using the properties of the first container one may gently squeeze the container to initiate the siphon then remove the pressure and the siphon continues. The first container may comprise a liquid fuel can and the second container may comprise a fuel tank of a motorized vehicle, e.g., boat, car, ATV, cart, plane, motorcycle, etc. In use, the siphon priming device enables simple, rapid, and safe transfer of liquid fuel from a fuel can into a motorized vehicle.

Abstract: The present invention is a method and system for constructing pre-fabricated buildings. Wall panels are provided wherein each wall panel has a plurality of vertically disposed channel-shaped metal studs equidistantly disposed between a bottom plate and top plate. A substantially rigid foam insert is between each of the channel-shaped metal studs of a wall panel to provide insulation and structural support to the wall panel. The foam inserts each have an aperture forming a conduit vertically disposed within the foam insert. An interior spline is inserted between adjacent wall panels and provides the mechanical connection to secure the wall panels together. The interior spline comprises rigid foam with a pair of steel facing adhered on opposing faces of the spline.

Abstract: A WallPlug (interface) connects DICOM devices located at a hospital to external storage and retrieval systems. The external storage and retrieval systems can be part of the National Digital Mammography Archive. The WallPlug allows secure communications within the hospital setting, and allows only selected data to be transferred between the hospital devices and the archive. The WallPlug enables cross-enterprise distribution of medical content with proper authentication and logging of transfers. The WallPlug includes two portals connected together by a private secure network. The use of two separate devices greatly enhances the security, redundancy, and manageability of the combined device.
