50results about How to "Performed efficiently and accurately" patented technology

Instrumentation, systems, and processes for tracking anatomy, instrumentation, trial implants, implants, and references, and rendering images and data related to them in connection with surgical operations, for example total knee arthroplasties (“TKA”). These instrumentation, systems, and processes are accomplished by using a computer to intraoperatively obtain images of body parts and to register, navigate, and track surgical instruments. Disclosed in this document are also alignment modules and other structures and processes which allow for coarse and fine alignment of instrumentation and other devices relative to bone for use in connection with the tracking systems of the present invention.

The present invention relates to a system used for inspecting the position of a compressor rotor within a compressor rotor case. A compressor rotor blade is moved about the rotor blade path of the compressor rotor case, a probe holder attached to the rotor blade has a scanning device as part of the holder used for gathering information relative to the compressor rotor case. A fixture attached to the compressor rotor gathers information about the position of the compressor rotor with respect to the compressor rotor case to determine the relative position of both the compressor rotor in relation to the compressor rotor case.

A method and apparatus are disclosed for analyzing and designing various network configuration scenarios. A modular design allows market assessment and network planning functions to be performed more efficiently and accurately using a single integrated design tool. Wired and wireless access technologies can be modeled and evaluated. In an exemplary implementation for modeling and evaluating fixed wireless access networks, the network planning tool comprises a market scenario planner, a cluster analysis tool, a hub sector planner and a network architecture planner. Generally, the market scenario planner analyzes a listing of potential customers to generate a list of target customers. The cluster analysis tool allows the network planner to identify “clusters” of demand for potential hub placement. The hub sector planner analyzes the hub assignments generated by the cluster analysis tool and allocates each building in a given hub to a particular sector. The network architecture planner processes the output of the hub sector planning tool to (i) generate a complete configuration of the network in terms of equipment requirements at each node (each building, hub and service node); and (ii) compare a set of scenarios using several financial measures.

Devices and methods are provided for combining the handle of a surgical instrument with a force feedback generator, able to create resistance to motion similar to that encountered in a real operating environment. The working end of the surgical instrument is recreated in a virtual environment and manipulated by the modified handle through the force feedback generator. Actions of the instrument handle modify a model and display of the virtual environment and transmit a haptic response back to the handle. The devices and methods provide a means for repeatedly performing maneuvers that accurately simulate the actual instrument, but in the virtual environment. The virtual environment is modeled to accurately simulate the use of the instrument including manipulation of and collisions with other virtual objects, such as surgical thread or internal tissues. Training and assessment tools are also provided that coach or assess a user's proficiency with the instrument.

First link members (56A and 56B), a pair of second link members (57A and 57B), and three head holders (51R, 51G, and 51B) are installed rotatably. Rotational pivots (50A and 50B) provided at intermediate portions of the second link members (57A and 57B) and a reference nozzle of the reference head holder (51R) are positioned on the same line in a main scanning direction. The reference head holder (51R) is rotated about the reference nozzle, and the other head holders (51G and 51B) are also rotated simultaneously. The head holders (51G and 51B) are formed to be movable parallel to a sub scanning direction, irrespective of the rotation angles thereof.

A device connector has a detachment preventing plate (50) mounted on surfaces of terminal blocks (30) to prevent detachment of nuts (35) and has escaping holes (52) at positions corresponding to nut accommodating holes (33) for allowing the tips of bolts (8) to escape. Fixed rails (40) are formed on the surface of each terminal block (30) at opposite sides of the nut accommodating hole (33) and extend in a projecting direction of the terminal block (30). Moving rails (53) are provided on a facing surface of the detachment preventing plate (50) and fit slidably to the fixed rails (40). The detachment preventing plate (50) is pushed and attached to cover the surfaces of the terminal blocks (30) from projecting ends of the terminal blocks (30) while the moving rails (53) are slid along and guided by the fixed rails (40).

Provided are a molding method for efficiently and accurately performing molding of a layered component made of a thermosetting resin by a simple mechanism, and molded articles. For this purpose, primary molding for molding a plurality of divided bodies and secondary molding for joining the plurality of divided bodies with one another are performed sequentially.
