Abstract: A robotic surgical system includes an instrument cart having a setup arm assembly and a control drive assembly coupled to the setup arm assembly. The control drive assembly includes a chassis assembly, a first drive unit and a second drive unit mounted to the chassis assembly, and a leadscrew assembly. Each drive unit is positioned to translate relative to the chassis assembly between a retracted position and an advanced position. The first drive unit couples to a first surgical instrument and the second drive unit couples to a second surgical instrument. The leadscrew assembly is mounted to the chassis assembly and includes a first leadscrew operably associated with the first drive unit and a second leadscrew operably associated with the second drive unit. The first leadscrew rotates to cause the first drive unit to translate relative to the chassis assembly. The second leadscrew rotates to cause the second drive unit to translate relative to the chassis assembly.

Abstract: Techniques for processing a natural language query are provided. The techniques include obtaining a set of statistics representing a contextual significance of a set of words in a data model for a data set. Next, the set of statistics is used to match a set of semantic intents for a natural language query of the data set to one or more data elements in the data model. The data element(s) and the data set are then to generate a result of the natural language query, and the result is provided in a response to the natural language query.

Abstract: A greywater recovery and reuse system is shown, including a body for collecting, reconditioning and discharging greywater. The body has an inlet connection to a source of greywater; a filter for filtering the greywater; a tank for receiving the filtered greywater; a disinfector for disinfecting the filtered greywater; a pump for discharging the reconditioned greywater from said tank to a toilet that needs flushing water; a discharge connection to a sanitary sewer system; a fresh water connection and a control system for controlling the operation of the greywater recovery and reuse system. The system includes a controller for operating the system and dealing with certain alarm and status conditions. Methods of operating the system are also comprehended.

Abstract: An inline mixer that can monitor and adjust its output torque and speed in real time to adjust mixing properties to suit changing fluids flowing therethrough. In one embodiment, structures can be constructed to provide different mixing characteristics via different shapes, configurations, and spacing, which can be formed therein and such structures can optionally be replaced to further customize mixing properties.

Abstract: A patient table has a removable end portion. This portion can thus be detached and replaced with an alternative end portion having a different shape, ideally having apertures in the areas where the beam requires access. This allows a wider range of shapes to be provided than can be achieved using configurable tables such as those noted above, whilst maintaining the mechanical strength required of the table. The parts of the table can be attached in a variety of ways. A preferred means of joining the two parts is to provide at least two engagement sites for mutual inter-engagement on each section, with the engagement sites of each part being spaced along the length thereof, the first engagement site closest the end of the respective section being adapted to engage on the top side thereof and the second engagement site more distant from the end being adapted to engage on the underside thereof.

Abstract: A biplanar posting device having a board with a rear edge and a front edge and lines passing from the rear edge toward the front edge diverging toward the front edge and intersecting the front edge at an angle of about 70 degrees with a plate fixed to the upper surface of the board having end planar portions held in contact with the board and central diverging portions in the form of two flat planes diverging from the upper surface of the board at about 4 degrees and intersecting the planes in contact with the board at a line that overlays the diverging lines. An orthotic properly placed on the device and packed with plastic beneath the heel portion will inherently be formed with a lower surface to correct a defect in the bones of a patient.
