Publication number: 20070044288Abstract: According to the present invention, for a dead human body in which the blood contains a predetermined ratio or more of bilirubin, which causes discoloration of the body, before the primary embalmment processing employing the perfusion type antiseptic fixing method using a formalin solution, the body is cleaned with an antiseptic solution, and the preliminary processing is performed. Specifically, a photo catalyst embalming solution containing a photo catalyst is injected into the vessels of the body, and after the photo catalyst embalming solution has been distributed to the capillaries in the dermis of portions of the body for which discoloration is to be prevented, the portions are irradiated by an electromagnetic wave (e.g., UV) to induce photo catalytic activity to locally, at the least, decompose bilirubin and reduce the amount in the body portions. As a result, the appearance of a body in a special state, wherein the amount of bilirubin is excessive, can be maintained so it is as natural as possible.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2005Publication date: March 1, 2007Inventors: Kohei Aoyagi, Yoshinobu Sato, Shinichiro Ishida

Publication number: 20070044289Abstract: A digital variable capacitor package is provided as having a ground plane disposed on predetermined portion of the top surface of a substrate. An elongated signal electrode may also be disposed on the substrate and including a first end defining an input and a second end extending to a substantially central region of the top surface of the substrate. This elongated signal electrode is disposed to be electrically isolated from the ground plane. A number of elongated cantilevers are disposed on the substrate and each include first ends coupled to the second end of the signal electrode and each further include second ends suspended over different predetermined portions of the ground plane. In operation, one or more of the cantilevers may be actuated to move portion thereof into close proximity to the ground plane for providing one or more discrete capacitance values.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 31, 2005Publication date: March 1, 2007Inventors: John Ebel, Rebecca Cortez, Richard Strawser, Kevin Leedy

Publication number: 20070044292Abstract: A blind rivet assembly is inserted through aligned holes provided in a top member and bottom member. The blind rivet includes a rivet head that abuts the top member and a hollow rivet shank integral with the rivet head. A mandrel includes a mandrel stem that extends thorough the hollow rivet and a mandrel head that abuts the terminal end of the rivet shank. A tool holds the rivet head in contact with the top member and forcibly withdraws the mandrel in the direction to exit the aligned holes to thereby cause the mandrel head of axially collapse and radially expand the terminal end of the rivet shank into engagement with the bottom member to thereby attach the top member and the bottom member together. Weld current is then applied to the rivet head to thereby weld the blind rivet in place.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 30, 2005Publication date: March 1, 2007Inventors: Robin Stevenson, Pei-Chung Wang

Publication number: 20070044293Abstract: A vacuum-mounted clamp for clamping a first component to a second component. The clamp includes a substantially rigid body having an application face, a back face opposite the application face, a side, and a vacuum port extending between the application face and the back face. The application face has a step adjacent the side for engaging the first component. The clamp includes a flexible seal connected to the rigid body adjacent the application face. The seal has a vacuum port in fluid communication with the vacuum port in the primary body and a periphery for contacting the second component to create a vacuum area between the clamp and the second component. The vacuum port of the body and the seal are in fluid communication with a vacuum generator for generating a vacuum in the vacuum area.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 26, 2005Publication date: March 1, 2007Inventors: Donald Grzina, Scott Martin, Dustin Ribble
