Abstract: A thumb drive with a miniaturized memory storage assembly package that employs an extended chassis structure to support the miniaturized memory device within an ergonomically designed casing that is also simple to manufacture. The miniaturized memory storage assembly has a flexible latch projection extending from its side that mates with a complimentary latch aperture in the side of the connector housing. Downwardly projecting tongues in the top surface of the connector housing also prevent movement of the assembly within the housing. The elongated platform chassis extending rearwardly from the USB connector housing snaps in place in an ergonomically designed thumb drive case.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for determining the prognosis of pulmonary sarcoidosis in an individual subject, comprising conducting gene expression analysis on a sample from the subject. The sample is obtained by bronchoscopy under procedural methods not requiring general anaesthesia.

Abstract: A balloon catheter system distinguishing a proximal balloon catheter system and a distal balloon catheter is provided. The proximal balloon catheter system has a first and a second catheter. These two catheters are positioned side-by-side over at least part of the longitudinal area of their outer surfaces, and they are detachably connected to each other. A first inflatable member is attached to the first catheter near the distal end of the first catheter. The distal balloon catheter distinguishes a catheter part with a distal end and a proximal end, and an exchange rod attached near the proximal end of the catheter part. The catheter part has a second inflatable member encircling the outer surface of the catheter part. The balloon catheter system can be used for example in methods of isolating a segment of a vessel, generating reversal fluid flow and creating an in-vivo shunt with a balloon catheter.

Abstract: A protective device for a notebook computer includes a foldable and expandable support bracket (2) and a resilient protective jacket (1) removably mounted on the support bracket to fold and expand in concert with the support bracket. Thus, the protective jacket covers the support bracket completely and is placed between the support bracket and the notebook computer to prevent the notebook computer from being scratched or worn by the support bracket due to frequent friction or hit.

Abstract: A mechanism for extending and retracting the electrical connector in a flash memory thumb drive is disclosed. The flash memory and USB connector are disposed on a printed circuit board. The board is slidably disposed within a housing so that the connector can be extended beyond and retracted within the housing. An arm on a pivot can be rotated in one direction so that another lever extends the board, and rotated in the opposite direction to retract it.

Abstract: A mold structure includes an ejecting tube disposed movably within a guide hole in a lower mold unit and having an ejecting end. The ejecting tube is communicated with an air chamber in the lower mold unit and a mold cavity. A pneumatic device is operable to draw air from the mold cavity into the ejecting tube. The ejecting tube is operable to move within the guide hole between a retracted position whereat the ejecting end is disposed outwardly of the mold cavity, and an ejecting position whereat the ejecting end is moved into the mold cavity so as to allow a molded product to be removed from the lower mold unit. The pneumatic device is also operable to introduce compressed air therefrom into the mold cavity via the air chamber and the ejecting tube.
