Abstract: A flux spraying system controls a flux sprayer to selectively spray soldering flux onto a printed circuit board (PCB) by a fixture. The fixture is disposed between the PCB and the flux sprayer, and comprises a plurality of openings corresponding to target areas of the PCB. The flux spraying system comprises a statistic module, a calculation module, and a control module. The statistic module records attributes of the fixture to determine spraying areas on the fixture. The calculation module calculates movement parameters of the flux sprayer, a movement length during a movement period and spraying segments of the flux sprayer, and spray duration of the flux sprayer based on the movement length during one movement period and the spraying segments of the flux sprayer. The control module directs the flux sprayer to coat the target areas of the PCB through the openings of the fixture.

Abstract: A motor for HVAC applications, has a stator; a motor housing forming a part of the stator; an end cap fixed to the motor housing, and a rotor rotatably mounted confronting the stator. The end cap has an opening formed by a ring-shaped collar, the collar being at least partly disposed inside the motor housing. A plurality of projections on an outer circumferential surface of the collar are received in a plurality of receiving cutouts in the motor housing. Two fingers formed at the opening of each receiving cutout are deformed to lock the received projection inside the respective receiving cutout. At least three of the projections being pressed against the axially inner end of the respective receiving cutout.

Abstract: The present invention refers to a medicament which activates gastrointestinal movement. The medicament consists essentially of Cucurbitacin D and one or more substances form the group including Cucurbitacin A, Cucurbitacin B, Cucurbitacin E, Isocucurbitacin B and Isocucurbitacin D. The medicament is made from an extract obtained from Muskmelon Base, the fruit stem of Cucumis melo L. The medicament can promote enterokinesia in both normal animals and in animal models where gastrointestinal movement is inhibited. It has also been demonstrated to activate the movements of the stomach, small and large intestines. The extract may be used alone or in combination with the other botanical ingredients or chemical substances to form the pharmaceutical preparation.

Abstract: A schema-based service for Internet access to per-user services data, wherein access to data is based on each user's identity. The service includes a schema that defines rules and a structure for each user's data, and also includes methods that provide access to the data in a defined way. The services schema thus corresponds to a logical document containing the data for each user. The user manipulates (e.g., reads or writes) data in the logical document by data access requests through defined methods. In one implementation, the services schemas are arranged as XML documents, and the services provide methods that control access to the data based on the requesting user's identification, defined role and scope for that role. In this way, data can be accessed by its owner, and shared to an extent determined by the owner.

Abstract: A schema-based Wallet service for centralized access to per-user financial data, wherein access to data is based on each user's identity. The Wallet service includes a schema that defines rules and a structure for each user's data, and also includes methods that provide access to the data in a defined way. The Wallet schema thus corresponds to a logical document containing the data for each user.

In one implementation, the Wallet schemas are arranged to provide XML documents, and the services provide methods that control access to the data based on the requesting user's identification, defined role and scope for that role In this way, document data can be accessed by its owner, and shared to an extent determined by the owner.

Abstract: Apparatus for noninvasively monitoring cardiovascular system parameters of a living subject comprises means for sensing waveforms externally of the body of the subject above the carotid and femoral arteries, means for non-invasively calibrating and digitizing the pulse waveforms, and a digital signal processor having means for converting the digitized, calibrated pulse information by Fast Fourier Transform to first and second sets of harmonically related blood pressure components in the frequency domain, means for comparing corresponding ones of the components in the first and second harmonically related sets to determine amplitude and phase transfer function components of the portion of the cardiovascular system between the carotid and femoral arteries, means for simulating the portion of the system by a hybrid electrical circuit model having at least three variable parameters, means for determining corresponding amplitude and phase transfer function components of the hybrid model and for adjusting the varia

Abstract: A method and apparatus for monitoring the cardiac output of living subjects. Carotid pulse waveforms and femoral pulse waveforms are measured and converted to digitized signals. The carotid pulse signal or waveform is applied as a voltage to the simulated aorta circuit and the circuit component values varied to develop a waveform output best matching the femoral pulse electrical waveform.
