Abstract: A hands-free door unlatching and opening system is provided for an access door operatively mounted to a jamb assembly of a building, the door including a handle set having a latch normally received, with the door in a closed position, within a latch pocket of a jamb of the jamb assembly to latch the door to the jamb. The system may include a plunger axially aligned with the latch pocket opposite to the latch, an actuator operatively coupled to the plunger and responsive to actuation to advance the plunger into the latch pocket to force the latch out of the latch pocket to unlatch the door from the jamb, and means for automatically opening the door following unlatching of the door from the jamb.

Abstract: A negative pressure wound therapy system includes a wound dressing and a suction device configured to be in fluid communication with the wound dressing via a conduit to channel a fluid between at least the wound dressing and the suction device. The suction device includes a vacuum connection configured to be coupled to the conduit, a vacuum pump, an analog electronic pressure sensor in electrical communication with the vacuum pump, and a passive valve assembly. The passive valve assembly is in fluid communication with (1) the vacuum pump, (2), the analog electronic pressure sensor, and (3) the vacuum connection, and is configured to maintain the vacuum pump in fluid communication with the vacuum connection within a predefined pressure range, and to passively inhibit fluid communication between the vacuum pump and the vacuum connection outside of the predefined pressure range.

Abstract: Improvement to the process of elementary analysis of a specimen by high frequency inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, by means of an apparatus including a torch for producing plasma from a plasma producing medium and for injecting the specimen in this plasma and an interface for taking a sample in the specimen, comprising two consecutive conical members disposed along the same axis except that the conical members have angles with different apices and are each provided with an axial orifice enabling a fraction of the specimen to be analyzed to pass therethrough. According to the invention, a given quantity of a make-up gas is added to the specimen which is injected into the plasma, the make-up gas having a high heat producing power, so as to raise the temperature of the plasma for locally heating the sampling conical members thereby preventing the components of the specimen which are present in the plasma from depositing on the conical members.
