Abstract: In some implementations, a network daemon can manage access to a mobile device's network interface. The network daemon (e.g., network connection managing process) can monitor the condition of the mobile device's network connection on one or more interfaces. The network daemon can monitor many conditions on the mobile device. The network daemon can receive background networking requests from network clients (e.g., processes, applications) that specify criteria for initiating a network connection. The network daemon can then smartly manage network connections taking into account network conditions, mobile device conditions and/or client criteria received in the client request. This can help reduce battery life impact, memory usage, likelihood of call drops, data usage cost, and load on network operators.

Abstract: An automated insurance quote system allows users to apply for one or more insurance quotes through a self-service communication channel. The system includes an interface that may receive applicant data from a remote location. A front-end processor selectively passes applicant data to a record keeping system retained in a memory. A controller or quote processors selects and transmits one or more insurance policies that are allowed under a user's governmental law and are tailored to the user's price and/or coverage preferences. The system conveys coverage details to users through the interface.

Abstract: Integrated access cover arrangements for use in a portable computing devices, where the portable computing devices include a processor and are configured to house a user accessible component are presented including: a base configured to be coupled to the portable computing device; an integrated access cover housing a keyboard, the integrated access cover being slidingly connected with the base and configured to be disposed in at least a closed position and an open position with respect to the base, the user accessible component being hidden from a user when the integrated access cover is disposed in the closed position, the user accessible component being accessible by the user when the integrated access cover is disposed in the open position. In some embodiments, arrangements further include: a drive mechanism for translating the integrated access cover. Advantages include the ability to utilize lower profile configurations while maintaining functionality.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved paper clip which is suitable for holding documents of different thicknesses. The improved paper clip includes three elements, which are a first clipping piece, a second clipping piece and a support beam. The first clipping piece is formed with a sunken slot therethrough and is connected to a bottom side of the support beam. The second clipping piece has a bending curve part and is connected to a top side of the support beam. The bending curve part is partially protruding into the sunken slot and is roughened to become a rough surface for increasing friction to tightly clamp documents. The inner surface of the support beam is a flat plane so as to provide a guiding function when the document is received between the first and second clipping pieces. The first and second clipping pieces are both adjoined to the inner surface of the support beam, such that the outer surface of the support beam substantially forms part of the outer contour of the paper clip.

Abstract: The present invention is an improved paper clip, which is applied on different thicknesses of documents, even only one single paper. The improved paper clip includes three elements, which are a first clipping piece, a second clipping piece and a support beam. The first clipping piece is with a sunken slot; the second clipping piece consists of a bending curve part and a horizontal part, a bottom curve surface of the bending curve part protrudes into the sunken slot and is roughened to become a rough surface for increasing friction to tightly clamp documents or one paper; the support beam, first clamping piece and second clamping piece form a capacity to store thicker documents.

Abstract: An improved structure for Vagina Speculum, which mainly consists of a first body and a second body which are set two jaws with thin and flat figure and concave surfaces on front ends of the first body and the second body. The first body pivotally joints the second body, and there is a matching structure installed on the first body and the second body that gently held by user to fast stretch and fasten the two jaws on the front ends of the first body and the second body. The invention focuses the matching structure to be improved for better releasing function, therefore, the matching structure can be rapidly released after operation, and the improved structure is then more convenient for moving out from patient's vagina and more practical.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved quantitative skin allergic test device, which has a finger grip to be held by fingers and multiple legs longitudinally attached to the finger grip. Each leg has a cover having a sealing plug portion adaptful for the mouth of an antigen container, an elongated stem extending from the sealing plug portion, and a raised portion as well as a plurality of punctures provided at the end of the elongated stem. The raised portion and punctures being capable of carrying sufficient antigen liquid therebetween to conduct the test. The raised portion may be act as a stop to limit excessive penetration of the punctures, therefore preventing the epidermis layer of the skin of a patient from being penetrated through while conducting a skin allergic test so as to obtain an accurate interpretation of the test result.

Abstract: A skin allergy test device includes a skin allergy test bar and an antigen container. The skin allergy test bar includes a finger grip, an integral cover having a sealing plug portion, an elongated stem extending therefrom, and a plurality of step-shaped punctures, wherein each puncture has a flat step to act as a stop and an integral sharp tip projecting out from the flat step. Each sharp tip has a length shorter than the thickness of the epidermis layer of the skin of human beings such that each puncture will not penetrate the epidermis layer of the skin of human beings due to the flat step of the punctures acting as a stop during a skin allergy test. The container has an inner compartment for storing antigen solution, a top opening for receiving the sealing plug of the skin allergy test bar securely, and a middle opening intercommunicating the inner compartment and top opening.

Abstract: A skin allergic test assembly comprises at least a skin puncture test bar (3), a tray (50), a antigen-containing cup (9), and a multiple-test-bar access device (19). The skin puncture test bar, which generally comprises a finger grip (4), an elongate stem (6), and a plurality of punctures (12), is characterized in that the elongate stem is provided with a concave surface (10) to which the punctures are attached, so that the penetration made by the skin puncture test bar will have a limited penetration depth to avoid the penetration through of the epidermis layer of the skin of a patient due to the outer edge of the concave surface. By using the skin puncture test bar of the present invention, a good and accurate skin test result can be obtained.
