An apparatus serves to produce dental impressions for the subsequent manufacture of crowns, bridges and other dental prostheses. The apparatus serves to produce so called injection correction impressions of teeth contained in a jaw. The apparatus includes an injection correction impression tray having an interior for containing impression material. The tray includes a bottom opening. The apparatus further includes a bottom plate having a top side and a protrusion. The bottom plate is connectable to the tray in a way that the protrusion protrudes into the interior of the tray to form an injection channel for a correction impression material.

Ion mobility spectrometer. The spectrometer includes an enclosure for receiving a sample therewithin and an electron beam window admits an electron beam into the enclosure to ionize the sample in an ionization region. A shutter grid is spaced apart from the ionization region and means are provided for sample ion preconcentration upstream of the shutter grid. The ion preconcentration is effective to reduce space charge resulting in a lowered threshold detection level.

A curable material delivery cannula device is disclosed. The device includes a cannula and a hub. The cannula includes an open proximal end, a deflectable segment forming a pre-set curve, a lumen, and side orifice(s) adjacent, and proximally spaced from, the distal end and fluidly connected to the lumen. When inserted within a guide cannula, the deflectable segment straightens. When distally extended from the guide cannula, the deflectable segment reverts to the curved shape. The distal end has a blunt tip for non-traumatic interface with bodily material. During use, curable material, such as bone cement, is delivered from the side orifice(s) in a radial direction relative to the lumen. The device may be used to create voids for receiving curable material, and may include spacers configured to control location and / or orientation of the voids.

A high-resolution PμSL system and method incorporating one or more of the following features with a standard PμSL system using a SLM projected digital image to form components in a stereolithographic bath: a far-field superlens for producing sub-diffraction-limited features, multiple spatial light modulators (SLM) to generate spatially-controlled three-dimensional interference holograms with nanoscale features, and the integration of microfluidic components into the resin bath of a PμSL system to fabricate microstructures of different materials.

An apparatus for introducing a specimen into a flow cytometer comprises: a syringe having a hollow barrel containing the specimen, a plunger partially within the barrel and a needle that extends into a volume of a nozzle of the flow cytometer; a one-way port in the nozzle forming a seal against the needle; a mounting platform coupled to both the syringe and to the flow cytometer; and a syringe pump coupled to the plunger, the syringe pump comprising a motor, a drive mechanism coupled to the motor; and a clamping mechanism coupled to the drive mechanism, wherein the motor operates the drive mechanism so as to cause the clamping mechanism to depress the plunger into the barrel.

A method of preparing a steep particle size inorganic particulate material includes grinding an aqueous suspension of an inorganic particulate material having a solids content of less than 35% and including a sub-effective amount of a dispersant for the inorganic particulate material. The method may further include dewatering the aqueous suspension to a solids content of at least 50% and dispersing the dewatered aqueous suspension by adding an additional amount of dispersant, and wherein, after grinding, the inorganic particulate material has a steepness factor above 35.

A process to increase the area of microbial stimulation in a process of methane gas recovery in a multi seamed coal bed / methane dewatering and depressurizing production system by first utilizing an underbalanced multilateral drilling technique. At this point in the process one could introduce the microorganisms into the horizontal well bore to achieve a greater area of stimulation of the coal bed than would a vertical well. An even more preferred method would to first drill a series of lateral wells off of the horizontally drilled well bore, so as to increase or maximize the area of coal bed which is being covered. At that point, one would take the steps of what is known in the art of introducing a particular type of microorganism, which would then be injected via the plurality of lateral bores into the coal bed formation, to maximize the area of penetration, which would include, most, if not all, of the area of the coal bed through the series of lateral wells.

A device for mounting an oval container on a motor vehicle includes a bracket designed to be mounted vertically on the frame of a vehicle, where the bracket includes an upper arm and a lower arm. The device also includes a mounting unit including a reinforcing beam designed to be mounted on the upper arm, a beam designed to be mounted on the lower arm and at least one strap holder designed to interact with a strap for attaching the said oval container. The reinforcing beam and the beam are permanently attached to the strap holder. A method for mounting an oval container on a vehicle is also disclosed. A simple and space-saving mounting of an oval container on a vehicle can be provided.

The invention relates to a insole for footwear in the form of a sole insert with at least one hindfoot part and a midfoot part and with a support for the medial longitudinal arch, wherein a first rise is provided in the region of an insert outer border of the hindfoot part and a second rise is provided in the region of the insert outer border of a midfoot part, and the first rise is formed higher than the second rise.
