Publication number: 20240075653Abstract: A saw assembly including a base, a frame assembly disposed on the base and a rail system disposed on the frame assembly. The rail system extends in a longitudinal direction and a table assembly is slidingly disposed in the longitudinal direction on the rail system. The assembly includes a split table having a first table portion and a second table portion separated by a gap extending parallel to the longitudinal direction of the rail system. A pair of fences are mounted to the first and second table portions and bridge the gap to connect the first and second table portions to each other. The gap and corresponding channels and drain apertures allow the tile saw to channel and retain water while cutting a tile.

Patent number: 11918407Abstract: Described is a method of providing an estimate of radiation dose received by a patient during an imaging scan performed by an imaging system. The method includes receiving patient information about the patient, receiving scan data generated during the imaging scan of the patient by the imaging system, creating a virtual dose model of the patient based upon the patient information and the scan data, receiving a selection of a region of interest of the patient, performing a dose simulation on the virtual dose model of the patient or a portion thereof, and determining, based upon an outcome of the dose simulation, an estimate of the radiation dose received within the region of interest. The imaging scan can be a partial imaging scan of a portion of the patient. Also provided is a system and software for carrying out this method.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2019Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: BAYER HEALTHCARE LLCInventors: David Griffiths, Arthur Uber, Jacob Agris, Ting Lu, Peter Thompson

Publication number: 20200216824Abstract: Protein rupture under compressive forces can be regulated by cations. More specifically, pico-Newton forces can cause rupture of protein molecules, as shown in examples with calmodulin (CaM) and tau proteins, among others. However, rupture does not occur in the presence of various concentrations of cation(s), thus elucidating new targets for disease therapy and providing therapies for neurodegenerative diseases or other conditions involving protein misfolding, dysfunction, or aggregation.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 31, 2019Publication date: July 9, 2020Applicant: Bowling Green State UniversityInventor: H. Peter Lu

Patent number: 8155780Abstract: A computer-implemented method for the automated adjustment of the position of a cutting tool when cutting dental aligner material includes using a computer for generating digital data that define (a) a first cutting angle in a labial cutting area along a dynamic cutting curve, (b) a second cutting angle in a lingual cutting area along the dynamic cutting curve, and (c) a third cutting angle in a back molar cutting area along the dynamic cutting curve. The cutting tool is automatically moved from the labial cutting area to the back molar cutting area while gradually increasing a cutting tool angle from the first cutting angle to the third cutting angle. The cutting tool is also automatically moved from the lingual cutting area to the back molar cutting area while gradually increasing the cutting tool angle from the second cutting angle to the third cutting angle.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2010Date of Patent: April 10, 2012Assignee: Align Technology, Inc.Inventors: Qinghui Peter Lu, Dmitry Sultanov, Pavel Agapov, Artem Borovinsklh, Maneesh Dhagat, Craig E.

Publication number: 20100173266Abstract: In accordance with various aspects of the present invention, a system and method for automated generating of a cutting curve on a surface is provided. In accordance with an exemplary embodiment, a computer-implemented method for automated generating of a cutting curve on a gingival surface to facilitate cutting of an aligner material comprises the defining of initial gingival curves along the line around a tooth (LAT) on a patient's jaw, including within an interproximal area between teeth. The initial gingival curves are replaced with a modified, dynamic cutting curve comprising an offset adjustment configured to minimize weakening of a region of the aligner material within the interproximal area. This process for generating a modified, dynamic cutting curve within an interproximal area can be suitably applied or continued for each of other the teeth and interproximal areas between those teeth to define a complete dynamic cutting curve.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 18, 2010Publication date: July 8, 2010Inventors: Qinghui Peter Lu, Dmitry Sultanov, Pavel Agapov, Artem Borovinskih, Maneesh Dhagat, Craig E.
