Abstract: The present disclosure relates to detecting one or more types of gynecological cancer in a biological sample from a subject. In particular, the present disclosure provides compositions and methods for detecting the presence or absence of one or more types of gynecological cancer (e.g., cervical cancer, ovarian cancer, endometrial cancer) in a biological sample from a subject having or suspected of having a gynecological cancer.

Abstract: Golf balls have dimple patterns on their surfaces which are generated in toto from simple formulae. The dimples are arranged in rows parallel to the ball's equator. The number of dimples are based on code numbers that are multiples of four and are greater than twelve. The golf balls of the invention have markedly greater dimple symmetry than heretofore. Also one or more series of dimple patterns, as above, are disclosed whose test carry is constant for the series and in which test trajectories become flatter as the code number increases.

Abstract: The invention adapts to an electronic lock comprising a housing, and a plug supported for rotation within the housing and having a keyway to receive the blade of a key which rotates the plug during operation of the locking apparatus. A locking member is movable into engagement with the plug to prevent the movement of the plug and the operation of the locking apparatus and movable out of engagement with the plug to allow the rotation of the plug and the operation of the locking apparatus. A solenoid having a core coupled to the locking member moves the locking member into and out of engagement with the plug. A permanent magnet is movable between a first position to receive and hold the solenoid core to maintain the locking member out of engagement with the plug, and a second position to release the solenoid core, and a driving means moves the magnet in at least one direction between the first and second positions.

Abstract: An electronic locking system including a lock cylinder having an electronically actuable release assembly which is selectively enabled to disengage a pin from a cylinder plug, to permit the rotation of the plug by an inserted key. The lock cylinder and key each contain non-volatile, electronically alterable memory devices, such as EEPROM integrated circuits, which house keying system codes. The key EEPROM is preferably housed within the key blade, in a key design which closely resembles a traditional mechanical key. The release mechanism incorporates a locking pin which is moveable between plug-engaging and non-engaging positions, along a radius of the lock cylinder. The release mechanism may include a primary actuator which directly moves the locking pin, or may act indirectly upon the locking pin via a latching member.

The lock cylinder and key each contain non-volatile, electronically alterable memory devices, such as EEPROM integrated circuits, which house keying system codes. The key EEPROM is preferably housed within the key blade, in a key design which closely resembles a traditional mechanical key without the usual bitting. The release mechanism incorporates a locking pin which is moveable between plug-engaging and non-engaging positions, along a radius of the lock cylinder. The release mechanism may include a primary actuator which directly moves the locking pin, or may act indirectly upon the locking pin via a latching member.

Abstract: A hybrid stepping motor unit includes a stepper-type primary motor and a secondary motor. The rotor shafts of the stepper-type primary motor and the secondary motor are connected to a common output shaft. The stepper-type primary motor is energized in response to an electrical command signal from an external source, such as a computer. When the stepper-type primary motor is energized, the stepper-type primary motor produces torque and attempts to drive the load combination of the interconnected rotor shafts, the common output shaft, and any mechanical load on the common output shaft, such as a machine tool component. This produces a reaction torque on the stepper-type primary motor. A transducer converts the reaction torque into an electrical control signal. The secondary motor is energized in response to the electrical control signal from the transducer.
