  • Publication number: 20140041263
    Abstract: A tile plow disclosed herein includes a horizontal beam, a shoe extending downwardly from the beam, a front portion including a first pair of hydraulic cylinders each pivotally coupled to a first portion of the beam, a rear portion including a second pair of hydraulic cylinders each pivotally coupled to a second portion of the beam, a leading sensor adjacent the front portion that receives a signal from a position control system and controls operation of the first pair of hydraulic cylinders to position the front portion to an intended grade path, and a trailing sensor adjacent the rear portion that controls operation of the second pair of hydraulic cylinders to position the rear portion to follow the intended grade path. The shoe may have a cutting edge that is curved from a leading edge to a trailing edge thereof.

  • Patent number: 6287606
    Abstract: Tissue and organ repair, healing and augmentation are enhanced by administering pharmaceutically acceptable group IIIa element-containing compounds in amounts sufficient to provide therapeutic levels of the elements. Group IIIa element-containing compounds mimic the beneficial biological effects of endogenous growth factors to induce cells responsible for repair, healing and augmentation of tissues and organs. Group IIIa element-containing compounds are suitable for a variety of applications such as wound healing, bone fracture repair, treatment of dermatologic conditions and successful bonding of implanted tissue grafts and prostheses.

  • Patent number: 5975804
    Abstract: A tile plow includes a horizontal beam and a shoe extending downwardly from the beam. The beam and shoe are supported on a rear wheel assembly, and a front linkage assembly. The beam and shoe are movable between a raised transport position and a lowered plowing position. The position of the rear wheel assembly and front linkage assembly is controlled by a slave hydraulic system for simultaneously raising and lowering the tile plow. A secondary hydraulic outlet adjusts the rear hydraulic cylinders relative to the front hydraulic cylinders. When the tile plow is laying a tile line, the rear wheels are positioned substantially behind the shoe.

  • Patent number: 5556645
    Abstract: Skin, connective and support tissue repair is enhanced and augmented by administering pharmaceutically acceptable gallium-containing compounds in amounts sufficient to provide therapeutic levels of elemental gallium. Gallium-containing compounds mimic the effects of endogenous growth factors to induce cells within these tissues to produce new matrix by increasing the formation of critical structural matrix proteins responsible for skin, support and connective tissue repair, maintenance and augmentation. Gallium-containing compounds are suitable for a variety of applications in wound healing, including dermatologic and cosmetic skin repair, bone fracture repair and successful bonding of implanted tissue grafts and connective and support tissue prostheses.
