Abstract: Provided are methods and systems for converting a passive cooling system into an active hydronic ground cooling system. In an aspect, an existing passive cooling device can be first discharged of working fluid. An existing pipe of the passive cooling system can then be cut to a predetermined height. A top portion of the existing pipe can be threaded and fitted with a cap base. Tubing can then be installed within the existing pipe. A cap can be attached to the cap base. The tubing can be attached to a chiller system and filled with coolant. Similar procedure can be applied to convert a thermopile or traditional pipe pile to into an active cooling system.

Abstract: An automatic injection device for delivering a dose from a medicine containing syringe includes a housing for containing the syringe, a force applicator for applying a force to eject medicine from the syringe, a trigger coupled to the force applicator for releasing the force applicator to cause an injection, a boot covering a needle attached to the syringe to protect and maintain sterility of the needle, and a mechanical interlock. The mechanical interlock prevents actuation of the trigger prior to removal of the boot. When the boot is removed, the mechanical interlock allows for actuation of the trigger.

Abstract: The herein described invention is a camera mounting system where the user can safely install a camera high in a tree without having to leave the ground. The camera mounting system is comprised of a tree attachment, ball mount, and camera mount. The system is installed by using an extension pole with releasable capture means for installation and removal of the system. This system is also comprised of a multi-mount adapter, which allows a user to install multiple wire connected mounted components on one tree attachment, or in different elevated positions. Once installed, a camera can be accurately aimed by using a laser attachment and standard laser pen light. This system is further comprised of a saw attachment, which can be used to clear branches from the installation area of the tree being utilized.

Abstract: A method and device is disclosed for measuring one or more physical properties of, and/or induced by, out-gassing products released from and/or trapped within a joint in response to a lightning strike or other electrical current threat. A device for measuring one or more physical properties of, and/or induced by, gases, plasma and/or particles released from a joint in response to an electrical current threat. The joint includes a fastener passing through a structure so that an end of the fastener protrudes from the structure. The device includes a containment member having a base surrounding an opening into a cavity, the containment member being arranged to be mounted over the end of the fastener to enclose the end of the fastener within the cavity and to seal the opening; and one or more sensors arranged to measure physical properties of gases, plasma and/or particles contained by the cavity.

Abstract: A two-piece mounting system for a trail camera has a support with a fitting that is placed high in a tree on a tree branch. The support with an auger anchor is driven into the tree branch with an extension pole equipped with a companion fitting. The auger has a releasable spring-loaded turn-to-lock capture means to capture and hold a utility bar. The utility bar, like the auger support, is placed and attached to the support with the extension pole. The utility bar receives a universal camera mount attached to the bar through a swivel. The camera mount and swivel have an adjustment bar that has a fitting that can be received by the extension pole fitting, so once placed in the tree, the camera angle can be adjusted.

Abstract: Skin stimulus arrangements are described for creating a stimulus in the skin in the vicinity of a treatment or wound site to alleviate the perception of pain. First and second textured surfaces are provided for making contact with the skin, with the surfaces being moved to create a stimulus which alleviates the perception of pain. The movement may be linear, rotary or a combination of both, and just a single textured surface may be provided.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for associating metadata with a media object that has been published on a plurality of social networks obtain a respective identifier by which the media object is identified on each of the plurality of social networks, retrieve metadata associated with the media object from each of the plurality of social networks using the corresponding identifier, and store the retrieved metadata in association with the media object.

Abstract: An injection device includes a housing 101 to 104 containing a syringe 24. The contents of the syringe 24 are viewable through a window 14 in the mid-section 102 of the housing. The window 14 is concealed by a slideable shutter 12. The slideable shutter 12 is biased by a bias spring 22 which also biases an internal syringe carrier. Also disclosed is a reversible needle cap which operates initially to cap the front end of the housing and, upon removal thereof, pulls a needle sheath 30 off the syringe needle 26. The cap is designed to be reversible so that, after use, it can be reversed and reconnected to the housing to cover the exposed needle.
