Abstract: An example method includes registering, via a visualization device, a virtual model of a portion of an anatomy of an ankle of a patient to a corresponding portion of the anatomy of the ankle viewable via the visualization device, the virtual model obtained from a virtual surgical plan for an ankle arthroplasty procedure to attach a prosthetic to the anatomy. The example method also comprises displaying, via the visualization device and overlaid on the portion of the anatomy, a virtual guide that guides at least one of preparation of the anatomy for attachment of the prosthetic or attachment of the prosthetic to the anatomy.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the field of home protection devices. More specifically, the present invention relates to a home protection dome device primarily comprised of at least one motor that powers a dome structure. The dome structure is comprised of a plurality of curved members that enclose and shield a home, other structure or object. The curved members can be deployed and retracted via a track within a base, wherein the track is powered by a motor. The motor may further receive power from a solar panel. The motor may also be controlled by a control panel to move the track and deploy or retract the curved members over a home, structure, or object in an enclosed manner. In this manner, the home, structure, or object is protected from severe weather.

Abstract: An aerosol generating device includes a rod of aerosol generating material and a filter rod, and tipping paper. The filter rod includes a first filter portion and a second filter portion. The first filter portion includes acetate tow and is positioned at a mouth end of the aerosol generating device. The second filter portion is biodegradable and extends from the first filter portion to the rod of aerosol generating material. The tipping paper surrounds the filter rod and a part of the rod of aerosol generating material. The second filter portion encloses a volume which is more than 50% of a combined volume enclosed by the first and second filter portions. The tipping paper includes a line of weakening extending from the mouth end towards the rod of aerosol generating material so that at least a portion of the tipping paper can be opened, and preferably removed, by a user.

Abstract: A container includes an outer housing including a box portion having a top opening closable by a lid portion, the box portion including front and back walls connected by a bottom wall and two side walls; consumer goods wrapped with an inner liner and arranged within the outer housing; and an inner frame arranged between outer housing and inner liner, wherein the inner frame includes front and side panels and a first vertical crease or perforated line across at least part of the front panel; wherein the inner liner is formed out of an inner liner sheet which includes an L-shaped perforation; and the removable portion defines an access opening through which consumer goods can be taken out, and wherein the perforation of the inner liner extends along the front wall, a first side wall and the back wall of the container.

Abstract: A container for consumer goods includes an outer housing including a box portion closable by a lid portion and having front and back walls and two side walls; and an inner frame within the outer housing including a front panel glued to an inner surface of the front wall and two side panels glued to respective side walls; wherein the inner frame includes at least one horizontal cut across part of the front panel and part of one of the side panels, and at least first, second and third folding lines extending vertically and parallel to each other from the at least one horizontal cut to an upper edge of the inner frame for defining at least one foldable portion; and the horizontal cut being positioned, in un-folded condition of the inner frame at or below an upper edge of the front wall of the box portion.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to a catheter having an ultrasound energy emitting region that is both rotatable about and slidable along the shaft of the catheter. One embodiment is directed to a catheter comprising an ultrasound transducer coupled to the shaft, and at least one actuator coupled to the handle and the ultrasound transducer that is adapted to move the ultrasound transducer both longitudinally along the shaft and circumferentially about the shaft. Another embodiment of the invention is directed to a catheter comprising an ultrasound transducer coupled to the shaft, and at least one actuator that is adapted to move the sheath both longitudinally along the shaft and circumferentially about the shaft to orient a window of the sheath in a desired position.

Abstract: A system and method for visually displaying and analyzing criminal and/or public health and safety data for geospatial and/or time variations, including the collection of incident data coupled with geographic and time data, filtering the symptom data based upon a selected time period and geographic range, and creating a visual result based upon statistical modeling including power transform and/or data normalization. According to at least one embodiment, the system for visually displaying and analyzing includes selecting and performing at least one aberration detection method and displaying the result to a user via a visual analytics arrangement.

Abstract: A modular heat exchanger assembly comprising: a plurality of interlocking housings each having a heat-exchanging element, a first and second side each having a mating connector and a first end and a second end, wherein the interlocking housings interlock to each other by the second side having a mating connector interlocking with the first side having a mating connector to provide a heat exchanger core, the first end has a plurality of first end mating connector openings and the second end has a plurality of second end mating connector openings; there may be at least one first-type end cap, at least one second-type end cap and/or at least one third-type end cap for connection to either one of the first end mating connector openings or one of the second end mating connector openings and there is at least one access opening.

Abstract: A multi-position valve assembly includes a valve body member at least partially defining a body chamber and a body orifice providing an inlet for ingress of a product into the body chamber. A stem member includes a plug portion at least partially located in the body chamber and a stem portion extending vertically from the plug portion beyond a top of the body chamber. The stem member includes a stem outlet capable of communication with the body chamber via a stem orifice. A first biasing member biases the stem member toward a closed position. A second biasing member biases the stem member toward the closed position only after the stem member is moved a clearance gap to a first open position.
