Abstract: The present disclosure provides an implant delivery system which is adapted to deliver a cardiovascular prosthetic implant, and comprises: an outer sheath; a balloon and a balloon tube, the balloon being connected to a distal end of the balloon tube; and a nose cone and a guidewire tube, the nose cone being connected to a distal end of the guidewire tube; wherein the balloon tube and the guidewire tube extend longitudinally in the inner cavity of the outer sheath and may pass through the distal end of the outer sheath. With the technical solution provided by the present disclosure, the technical problem that the surgical process is complicated when the balloon is independent of the implant delivery system can be alleviated, and the surgical efficiency can be improved.

Abstract: A pacifier cleaning and storing apparatus that is disclosed in two design configurations. Both configurations have three main elements, an upper section, a center section and a lower section. Within the upper section is a pump with a water inlet and an adjustable spray nozzle. Within the lower section is a support member at the substantial midpoint. Within the lower section is an internal support member that is located at the substantial midpoint of the lower section. The is apparatus can be opened, and a pacifier can be placed on the internal support member. Clean water is put into the center section, and when a resilient member on the upper sections is squeezed and downward pressure is applied, the water is forced through the inlet into the pump. The water is then sprayed, onto the pacifier. Once the pacifier has been cleaned, it can be removed, or remain within the apparatus.

Abstract: A wireless network of a first type receives a request for network entry from a mobile station. A service continuity query is sent to a service node. A service continuity response is received from the service node. The service continuity response includes a network access identifier. The network access identifier is determined to be associated with an existing session on a wireless network of a second type. The existing session is using a mobile internet protocol address. On the wireless network of the first type, a session is assigned the mobile internet protocol address.

Abstract: A method, storage medium, and system for a managed audio bell/intercom including a controller and audio devices connected by an industry standardized network, wherein the controller contains logic to distribute action via the network to the audio devices.

Abstract: An authorization system in a home wireless network comprises a communication interface and a processing system, wherein a wireless communication device associated with the home wireless network transfers a network service request to a service node to acquire a static packet address for the wireless communication device. The communication interface is configured to receive an authorization request for the wireless communication device, transfer a query for delivery to a user profile system, receive a packet address of a home agent associated with the wireless communication device, transfer an authorization response, and receive an authentication request transferred from the home agent. The processing system is configured to process the authentication request to determine the static packet address for the wireless communication device.

Abstract: A fastener for joining two pieces of rebar together in a rebar grid used to reinforce subsequently poured concrete is described. The fasteners include two clamp pieces that in certain embodiments completely wrap around a piece of rebar and are tightly secured thereto. Further, each clamp piece can swivel or rotate up to 360 degrees relative to the other clamp piece such that two rebar pieces intersecting at any angle can be coupled together.

Abstract: A portable cleansing device (20) for cleaning small items, such as a pacifier (80), with pressurized liquid. The invention consists of a container (22) with a lid (46) that is removably attached to the container for maintaining liquid-tight integrity. A vertical partition (52) within the container forms a fresh liquid reservoir (56) for storing fresh water and a waste liquid repository (64) for storing waste water. A cleaning chamber (68) is formed having an inner wall (70) that is spaced from the container to create a void (72) therebetween that incorporates a number of nozzle openings (74). A liquid pump (78) is attached to the container and is in fluid communication with the void and with the fresh liquid reservoir. When the pump is manually energized, water is forced from the reservoir through the nozzles, thus spraying pressurized water onto the object positioned within the cleaning chamber, with the water accumulating and stored in the repository beneath the chamber.

Abstract: A moulding composition is based on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and contains as additives polycaprolactone with a number average molecular weight greater than 10,000 and a nucleant for crystallization of the PET.The composition can also contain a reinforcing fibre, such as glass, and a plasticizing additive, which may be, for example, a lower molecular weight polycaprolactone, or a plasticizer such as dibenzyl adipate.

Abstract: A thermoplastic polymer composition of an aliphatic polyamide and a modifier. The modifier is a copolymer of nylon 6 and an acrylic polymer, its inclusion in the composition enabling the properties of the aliphatic polyamide (e.g. nylon 6, nylon 66, nylon 11) to be modified without need of co-condensation with the modifier.The modifier copolymer is 0.5 to 50 percent by weight of the composition. The proportion of acrylic polymer in the copolymer is not more than 25 percent by weight. The acrylic polymer comprises molecular chains derived from acrylonitrile or from a major proportion of an alkyl ester of acrylic or methacrylic acid and a minor proportion of a copolymerizable unsaturated carboxylic acid.The preferred acrylic polymer is a multi-phase polymer comprising a first, elastomeric, phase and a second, rigid thermoplastic, phase.The composition can be used for moulding articles.
