  • Patent number: 12242549
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for unified search and navigation for cloud-based services are disclosed. A unified search system receives textual input entered using a search interface. The search interface is displayed in a user interface concurrently with a management console for a cloud provider network. Based (at least in part) on the textual input, the system performs a search using one or more indexes usable to determine service names and descriptive information for the services. The system generates search results comprising a portion of the service names and a portion of the descriptive information. The search results are displayed using a search results overlay that is displayed concurrently with at least a portion of the management console. The system receives additional input entered using the overlay and comprising a selection of a particular search result. Responsive to the selection, additional information associated with the particular search result is displayed.

  • Patent number: 12082837
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for an articulating microsurgical instrument is disclosed herein. The articulating microsurgical instrument may be configured to be operable with a Doppler probe, bone grasper, soft tissue grasper/dissector, scissors, flexible forceps, or a suction/irrigation line configured to provide tools within a surgical location that can be adjusted to a desired angle of operation. A tip assembly may comprise an articulating portion at a distal tip and the articulating portion may be configured to deflect upon actuation of an articulation control. The articulation control may be a trigger assembly or a roller wheel. A bayonet-style handle may include a set of posts configured to interact with the one or more control wires during actuation of the articulation control. One or more control wires may be housed in a lumen and actuated using a articulation control of a handle assembly.

  • Publication number: 20070234837
    Abstract: A shifter mechanism includes, a base, a shifter lever pivotable relative to the base along a shift path, and a detent assembly. The detent assembly includes a plurality of grooves defining a plurality of gear positions along the shift path, an electric linear actuator having a pin selectively movable along a linear path between a locking position wherein the pin cooperates with the plurality grooves to lock the shifter lever in one of the plurality of gear positions and an unlocking position wherein the shifter lever is movable along the shift path between the plurality of gear positions, and an electric switch operably coupled to the electric linear actuator to selectively activate the linear actuator. The pin of the linear actuator is extendable along a linear path which is substantially vertical or a along a linear path which is substantially horizontal and laterally-extending.

  • Publication number: 20070195527
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to an LED lighting source comprising a housing adapted for coupling to an AC power source; a rectifier circuit for converting the AC power to a DC supply; a power control circuit disposed in the housing and electrically connected to the DC supply; a string of LED's electrically connected between a control node of the power control circuit and the DC supply, the LEDs in the string being connected in series and being of a number selected to produce a voltage difference across the power control circuit sufficient to power active components of said power control circuit when powered from the DC supply and the power control circuit for limiting a forward current through the string to a nominal forward current of a single LED.

  • Patent number: 6231253
    Abstract: A novel passive peel system for a printer is provided for peeling labels off of a backing. Labels secured to a backing is defined as media. The printer has a printhead for printing indicia on the labels and a platen roller. A first embodiment of the passive peel system includes a peel tear bar proximate to the platen roller for bending the backing therearound and a separator bar proximate to the peel tear bar for separating the backing from the labels after the labels have been printed on by the printhead. The media passes over the peel tear bar, the backing passes between the peel tear bar and the separator bar, and the labels pass over the separator bar. The labels can be peeled with low tension or with zero tension on the backing. A second embodiment of the passive peel system includes a peel tear bar and an anti-buckle bar mounted proximate to the peel tear bar for preventing buckling of the media as the media passes over the peel tear bar.
