Vertebral fixation device and tool for assembling the device

Constitutes a pedicle screw (1), a rosette (3) that fixes the pedicle screw (1) to a tulip (6), a bar that constitutes the link with other devices and a locking cap (9) associated to the closing screw (11) that is threaded on the inside of the tulip (6) and fixes the position of the bar. The locking cap (9) incorporates protuberances (12) that fit on the tulip (6), guiding the set formed by the locking cap (9) and the closing screw (11) during the positioning and threading of the closing screw (11) on the tulip (6) pressing the bar (8) against the rosette (3). The outer face of the tulip (6) and the locking cap (9) present an essentially circular configuration that is interrupted by two opposite-facing flat indentations (13, 14) that contribute to reduce the width of the device in the axial direction of the bar (8).

Low profile surgical retractor

A compact, low-profile surgical retractor (100) avoids the need for a bulky frame. The retractor includes retractor blade components (110, 120, 130, 140, 150, 160) joined pivotally. A cable (170) is guided by each retractor blade component. A winding mechanism (180), such as a spool, is carried by one of the retractor blade components (120) for winding up the cable to cause the retractor blade components to transition from a closed position to an open position. The winding mechanism may be actuated by a detachable handle (200). The retractor blade components may be unitary, injection-molded pieces. The retractor blade components may be fixed pivotally, such as by pins, or pivotally joined by living hinges. A less-invasive surgical method is also provided in which the retractor is inserted into the body through an incision.

Geared wheel motor design

The present invention is directed to an apparatus for driving an aircraft having an undercarriage wheel, comprising aircraft drive means for driving an undercarriage wheel, and a clutch disposed between said driven means and said wheel, wherein said drive means and said clutch are directly connected to the undercarriage apparatus. Said apparatus may have gears disposed between said drive means clutch, or between said clutch and said wheel. In a most preferred arrangement, the apparatus of the invention fits inside the hub of said wheel. When the invention is applied to an aircraft undercarriage wheel, the clutch allows the wheel to be disengaged for takeoff and landing.

Retractable multiposition furniture system

A workstation providing multiple presentation angles for a visible display structure and a related working area structure. The display and working structures are adjustably mounted on a cabinet pedestal that houses electronic equipment connected with components carried by the display and working area structure. The cabinet pedestal is positioned against a wall below gauges and / or other materials mounted on the wall. When not being used, the working area structure closes over the visible display structure to provide a decorative cover over an enclosed area. The display and work structures are retractable to a compact standby position at the top of the cabinet, leaving certain of the wall-mounted materials visible over the top of the stored workstation. A recess provided between the back of the stored display and work structure accommodates certain wall mounted materials.

A system and method for detecting anomalies concealed upon a person may include a detection probe having an electromagnetic transmitter and an electromagnetic receiver. The electromagnetic transmitter is configured to emit electromagnetic pulses, while the electromagnetic receiver is configured to sample electromagnetic pulses from the electromagnetic receiver at specified times within a waveform window. The electromagnetic pulses may span the terahertz spectral region of 0.04 to 4 THz. The system may also have optical fibers connected to the electromagnetic transmitter and electromagnetic receiver, wherein femtosecond laser pulses are directed from a source to the electromagnetic transmitter and the electromagnetic receiver by the optical fibers.

Systems And Methods Of Device Firmware Delivery For Pre-Boot Updates

Systems and methods are provided that may be implemented to deliver firmware for pre-boot updates of targeted information handling system device / s using custom update capsules (e.g., such as custom UEFI capsules) and a separately-stored firmware update package that is remotely or locally stored. The custom update capsules may contain instruction payload information that may be used to determine location and desired components of the separately-stored firmware update package, and that also may be used to determine whether existing driver / s are to be retained in a firmware module in system memory or to be unloaded and replaced with a new (e.g., upgraded or downgraded) driver version in a firmware module in system memory as part of the firmware update.

Panel vibration type sound generating actuator and double-faced display device including same

The present embodiment relates to a double-faced display device generating sound by directly vibrating a display panel and includes: a first display panel and a second display panel disposed at the front and rear surface thereof, respectively; a single sound generating actuator connected to the first display panel and the second display panel to simultaneously vibrate the first display panel and the second display panel and thus generate sound; and a support part configured to support the sound generating actuator, the first display panel, and the second display panel. The present embodiment does not require a separate speaker and thus can achieve a thin or slim display device, and can improve the localization or the quality of sound output in opposite directions in the double-faced display device.

Vehicle crew training system

A computer based simulation system for virtual training for vehicle crews is disclosed. The vehicle crew training system (VCTS) simulates crew positions for different military vehicles. Two or more crewman modules are networked together to support a partial or full vehicle crew. The crewman modules are self-contained devices that are modular in hardware and software design, easily reconfigurable, and that require minimal facility space, allowing use in restricted environments such as trailers. The VCTS is modular at the crew position level; crewman modules are added or deleted as required to meet a particular training need. One of the crewman modules can be a gunner module, which provides an unrestricted view of the simulated environment to the gunner by means of a display and a simulated vehicle-mounted weapon.

Folding Motor Scooter

An improved electric motor scooter includes: a front frame; a front wheel assembly coupled to the front frame and residing on a surface; a back frame; a back wheel assembly coupled to the back frame and residing on the surface; and a center pivot mechanism coupled to the front frame and the back frame. The center pivot mechanism includes a pivot and a folding axis around which the pivot rotates. The folding axis is not perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the scooter and is tilted from the longitudinal axis at an angle. A rotation of the pivot in a direction folds the scooter vertically from the surface and moves the back wheel assembly toward the front wheel assembly according to the angle. During the folding, the front wheel assembly and the back wheel assembly each remains on the surface as the pivot rotates.

Conductive electrolyte for high voltage capacitors

The present invention is directed to a conductive electrolyte for use in high voltage electrolytic capacitors and to an electrolytic capacitor impregnated with the electrolyte of the present invention for use in an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD). The electrolyte according to the present invention is composed of a two solvent mixture of ethylene glycol and di(ethylene glycol); a combination of boric acid with an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid of carbon chain length from eight to thirteen, such as suberic, azelaic, sebacic, undecanedioic, dodecanedioic, or brassylic acid; a very long chain dicarboxylic acid, where the acid moieties are separated by 34 carbons; and a nitro-substituted aromatic compound as a degassing agent, such as 3-nitroacetophenone or 2-nitroanisole. This electrolyte is then titrated with a light amine such as ammonia, diethylamine, dimethylamine, trimethylamine, or triethylamine. The electrolyte according to the present invention, when impregnated in an electrolytic capacitor, provides an acceptable breakdown voltage while having a reasonable bulk conductivity. This electrolyte, when impregnated within a capacitor constructed of appropriate foils and paper spacers, should provide a part with a working voltage of at least 500 volts, while having a bulk conductivity of approximately 3 mS / cm.
