Abstract: There is provided a battery module comprising: a housing; a first group of energy source units arranged in the housing along a first direction and connected in series; a second group of energy source units arranged in the housing along the same direction and connected in series; and a third group of energy source units also arranged in the housing along the first direction and connected in series. The first group of energy source units is configured to output a first output voltage of the battery module for constituting a first phase of an AC signal. The second group is configured to output a second output voltage of the battery module for constituting a second phase of the AC signal. The third group is configured to output a third output voltage of the battery module for constituting a third phase of the AC signal.

Abstract: The present invention provides tools and methods for the systematic analysis of genetic interactions, including higher order interactions. The present invention provides tools and methods for combinatorial probing of cellular circuits, for dissecting cellular circuitry, for delineating molecular pathways, and/or for identifying relevant targets for therapeutics development.

Abstract: A grooved slot is provided in a bone fixation device for osteosynthesis that permits adjustment of the bone fixation device relative to the bone, before the bone fixation device is finally fixed to the bone. The grooves are formed on the two longitudinally extending, facing walls of the slot, with the grooves on a first side wall of the slot having a vertical displacement of exactly one-half pitch relative to the grooves on the second, opposite side wall of the slot.

Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for customized communication routing based on user information. When a presence of a first user is detected on a pre-designated webpage of a plurality of webpages of a website, attribute information of the first user is obtained in response to the detected presence and the pre-designated webpage is dynamically modified to display a communication routing option based on the attribute information of the first user. The communication routing option displayed to the first user is different from a communication routing option displayed to a second user having different attribute information. The routing option available to the second user is hidden from display to the first user.

Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for customized communication routing based on user information. When a presence of a first user is detected on a pre-designated webpage of a plurality of webpages of a website, account information of the first user is retrieved in response to the detected presence and the pre-designated webpage is dynamically modified to present a communication routing option based on the account information of the first user. The communication routing option presented to the first user is different from a communication routing option presented to a second user having different account information.

Abstract: A device is provided including a distal nail portion and a proximal nail portion that can be connected to each other to attain a rigid configuration. The device is to be placed internally within the medullary cavities of bones. The device is placed intramedullarily in order to minimize incision size, excessive bone resection and post-operative tendon damage and tenderness. Additionally, one particular method for using the device is provided that includes placing and affixing the distal nail in bone, placing the proximal nail in bone, connecting the distal nail to the proximal nail, doing the desired geometrical adjustments, affixing the proximal nail to the distal nail by tightening the connection and affixing the proximal nail to attain a rigid configuration.

Abstract: Means to create a friction restraint between the interlocking leaves of a hinge. The outer surface of the hinge pin shaft is in contact with the inner surface of the interlocking elements. Friction is generated between the contacting surfaces through a motion resistive material comprising the outside surface of the hinge pin shaft, the inner surface of the knuckle, or both.

Abstract: A nozzle for mounting on an agricultural sprayer and intended for spraying a surface with fertiliser liquid, which nozzle comprises an inlet portion (10), a through-flow passage (15) and an outlet portion in the form of a wall (20) that extends transversally of the through-flow passage (15), and having outlet passages (25, 30, 40) that have straight flow axes (25′, 30′, 40′) and are configured to each form a concentrated jet of the liquid from the nozzle (1).

Abstract: An agricultural sprayer for spraying a mixture of a carrier liquid and at least one active ingredient, and including a carrier liquid container, at least one active ingredient container for containing the active ingredient in concentrated form, a mixing chamber for mixing the carrier liquid with the active ingredient, at least one active ingredient feed line between the at least one active ingredient container and the mixing chamber and a carrier liquid feed line between the carrier liquid container and the mixing chamber, a boom structure having at least one nozzle connected with said mixing chamber for spraying the mixture of the active ingredient and the carrier liquid, and means for generating and discharging a flow of gas under pressure. The sprayer has connecting means that allow gas low communication between said means for generating and discharging a flow of gas under pressure and said at least one container for receiving an active ingredient.
