Mask system includes frame, cushion, cushion clip, swivel elbow, headgear and / or headgear clips configured for use in a clinical or hospital environment. One or more components of the mask system configured to promote single patient use, for example, by providing an age indicator and / or preventing disassembly and / or cleaning.

A console device for controlling a door operator for a motor operated door includes a housing; a transmitter unit, a door operator control circuit, a user accessible door operator switch operable to control a door, an LED driven menu operably connected to the control circuit, an alphanumeric keypad and user input push buttons. The LED driven menu provides visual programming feedback to the user. The LED driven menu may provide feedback such as a home state or ready indicator, a door selector, user code or PIN assignment designators and a programming error indicator.

The quick disconnect assembly includes a reusable assembly including a distal end having a male lip thereon; and, a disposable assembly having quick disconnect capabilities when utilized with the reusable assembly. The disposable assembly includes a stem section; a finger lock element; and, a detachable handle assembly. The finger lock element includes a distal finger lock element section having a threaded inner surface for engagement with a threaded outer surface of the stem section; and, a plurality of radially spaced fingers extending proximally from the distal finger lock element section. Each finger has a) a ramped surface for operatively engaging an associated ramp section on the stem section during use; and, b) a female lip at a proximal end thereof. The detachable handle assembly includes a proximal handle section having a distal end having an inner surface that is operatively engaged with an outer surface of the finger lock element so as to resist relative rotation and axial motion therebetween. A distal handle section of the detachable handle assembly includes a distal handle section having an inner surface that is operatively engaged with another outer surface of the stem section so as to resist relative rotation and axial motion therebetween. A breakaway collar of the detachable handle assembly is positioned between the proximal handle section and the distal handle section. When the disposable assembly is attached, the breakaway collar is an integral unit which prevents relative rotation between the proximal handle section and the distal handle section, the female lip engaging the male lip at a distal end of the reusable assembly, thereby securing the reusable assembly to the disposable assembly. The quick disconnect assembly may be used to provide only a mechanical connection or it may be provided with components for providing fluid transfer. In another embodiment, instead of only providing for single use, multiple use of a detachable assembly is provided by eliminating the breakaway collar and utilizing spring biasing means.

An extraction device for the extraction of a liquid from a medical receptacle is equipped with a connector, which is designed for connection with the medical receptacle and for creation of a conduit connection into the medical receptacle. Furthermore, a component is provided on the extraction device, which is movably mounted to the connector. This component has a plurality of connections for a liquid outlet, wherein the connector and the component are movable relative to each other, such that they create a conduit connection between the medical receptacle and optionally one of the connections.

A self-contained apparatus having a rotating flavor barrel for roasting, grilling, searing, rotisserie cooking, and smoking food. The apparatus is easily assembled, disassembled and transported making it ideal for “tailgate” cooking. The apparatus may be mounted on a wheeled frame or on a vehicle mounted frame. The apparatus can include an adjustable-height firebox and a smoker cover. Multiple accessories may be attached to the flavor barrel.

A system (and method) for determining reconstruction formulas for partial strip reconstruction in a storage system in which a plurality of lost strips have been detected, includes using a combination of a direct reconstruction method and a sequential reconstruction method.

In a double clutch transmission, particularly for front wheel drive cars with transversely mounted engines, the power path for the reverse speed extends through the same path as that for the second forward speed, both using the same input clutch, while the power path for the first forward speed extends through the other input clutch of the double clutch so that shifting between the reverse and first speeds can be accomplished under engine power.

Disclosed is a process that uses reverse osmosis (RO) or nanofiltration (NF) membranes and ion exchange (IX) water softening resins to maximize the production of drinking water, purified industrial service water or recycled purified municipal or industrial effluents. The membrane and ion exchange units are configured in a manner that enables operation of the system at high permeate recoveries in the range 90% to 99%, thus producing purified drinking water with a minimum volume of wastewater to drains and a very low membrane cleaning or membrane replacement frequency. The process mitigates membrane fouling and scale formation and minimizes the use of water treatment chemicals including acidic and alkali solutions and sodium chloride salt that is normally required to regenerate the IX resin.
