  • Publication number: 20200316907
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a molding which comprises a foam and at least one fiber (F). The fiber (F) has a first part (FT1), a second part (FT2) and a third part (FT3). The third part (FT3) of the fiber (F) connects the first part (FT1) and the second part (FT2) of the fiber (F) and is arranged on a second side of the foam. A first region (FB11) of the first part (FT1) of the fiber (F) and a first region (FB12) of the second part (FT2) of the fiber (F) are located inside the molding and are not in contact. A second region (FB21) of the first part (FT1) of the fiber (F) and a second region (FB22) of the second part (FT2) of the fiber (F) project from a first side of the foam. The present invention further relates to a process for producing the moldings according to the invention and to a panel which comprises the molding according to the invention and at least one layer (S1) and also to a process for producing the panel.

  • Publication number: 20200130917
    Abstract: An Ultrasound Transmission Gel Packet Having Internal Heat Source and Method of Use. The gel packet is sized for a single use, rather than for multiple applications. The gel packets are not pre-heated, but rather are quickly heatable on demand. The gel packets may incorporate a variety of optional internal heating methods, including chemical activation, mechanical agitation and electrical activation, among others. The gel packets are sealed and therefore have extended shelf lives, and further are disposable after use.

  • Patent number: 10621954
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions with and between computers in content searching, generating, hosting and/or providing systems supported by or configured with personal computing devices, servers and/or platforms. The systems interact to identify and retrieve data within or across platforms, which can be used to improve the quality of data used in processing interactions between or among processors in such systems. The disclosed systems and methods provide systems and methods for automatically filtering a compressed media file for perceptual display of the media content in a modified, higher-resolution format. The disclosed systems and methods apply novel visual filtering techniques to a compressed media file that enable the display of the rendered media content to appear to be displayed as a modified, higher-resolution version of itself without actually modifying the compressed media file during rendering.
