Abstract: A device is provided for use by a physician to relocate a dislocated shoulder of a patient. The device includes a bent rigid member, an upper arm connecting member attached to one end of the bent rigid member, a lower arm connecting member attached to the other end of the bent rigid member, a loop attached to the bent rigid member. The device is also supplied with belt means for attaching the loop to the physician in order to allow him to apply force to the bent rigid member by using his body weight.

Abstract: A load side phase control circuit is used in conjunction with a conventional fluorescent light ballast (step-up autotransformer) and an isolation transformer to achieve fluorescent lamp brightness control. A resistor and capacitor connected in series shunt the phase control circuit to maintain low level illumination even when the phase control circuit is nonconducting and also provide a transient suppression when the phase control circuit switches to a conducting state. The circuit is especially suited to printed circuit board preassembly and subsequent connection to the lamp and ballast by a one step crimping operation. The resulting fluorescent lamp system--of the rapid start type--is well suited for use as a task light where the lamp is mounted relatively close to an underlying work area and receives power from a conventional outlet.

Abstract: A system for automatically testing a plurality of memory arrays on selected memory array testers includes an interactive data entry device for entering array test specifications including characterizing information, DC testing parameters, AC testing parameters and AC test pattern choices for the array. The test specifications are entered in a format which is independent of a particular tester's characteristics. A universal language generator generates a tester independent universal language instruction sequence for carrying out the prescribed tests based upon the entered test specifications. Associated with each tester is a universal language translator which translates the tester independent universal language instruction sequence into an instruction sequence which is particular to the associated tester. The tester dependent instruction sequence may be loaded into the associated tester to produce the test signals for testing the memory array.

Abstract: In a device for detecting fluid flow, an elongated body, such as a wire, is supported so that when a substantial portion of its length is exposed to a flowing fluid with the longitudinal axis of said portion arranged substantially transverse to the fluid flow, said portion can be caused to vibrate by vortex shedding; an electromechanical transducer is coupled to the body so as to produce an electrical signal in response to the vibration; and either the presence of the electrical signal is detected, for operation as a safety switch, or the frequency of the vibrations is detected, for measurement of fluid flow rate, fluid velocity etc.

Abstract: A panel structure comprised of a plurality of side-by-side segments formed to present the configuration and aesthetics of hand-split wooden shakes for a building roof and/or wall, and trimming and finishing accessories therefor similarly formed to simulate wooden shake structures.
