A method for inhibiting hyperplasia at an anastomotic junction of a vascular fistula or vascular graft comprises exposing the anastomotic junction to vibrational energy at a mechanical index and for a time sufficient to inhibit hyperplasia. Kits are described comprising the catheter or a probe suitable for performing the methods together with instructions for use setting forth the methods. The methods and kits are particularly suitable for treating anastomotic junctions formed to provide vascular access for hemodialysis, hemofiltration, and the like. The methods and kits are also suitable for treating other vascular grafts, such as those formed during cardiac bypass graft surgery, vascular repair, and the like.

A user interface, and associated techniques, that permit a fast and efficient way of correcting speech recognition errors, or of diminishing their impact. The user may correct mistakes in a natural way, essentially by repeating the information that was incorrectly recognized previously. Such a mechanism closely approximates what human-to-human dialogue would be in similar circumstances. Such a system fully takes advantage of all the information provided by the user, and on its own estimates the quality of the recognition in order to determine the correct sequence of words in the fewest number of steps.

The invention relates to the technical field of automatic machine assembling, in particular to a self-adaptation flexible assembling device for a hydraulic cylinder head body. The technical problem ofassembling of a cylinder barrel and a cylinder head body of a large multistage hydraulic cylinder is solved. The self-adaptation flexible assembling device comprises a cylinder barrel flexible clamping platform and a cylinder head body flexible clamping platform which are independent from each other and need to be used in cooperation with each other. The cylinder barrel flexible clamping platformis used for fixing a cylinder barrel, and the cylinder barrel flexible clamping platform can do perpendicular lifting motion and horizontal motion in the radial direction of the cylinder barrel. Thecylinder head body flexible clamping platform is used for fixing a cylinder head body, the cylinder head body flexible clamping platform can do horizontal motion along the axis of the cylinder barrel,the cylinder head body flexible clamping platform drives the cylinder head body to move towards the cylinder barrel and rotate synchronously, and finally the cylinder head body and the cylinder barrel can be assembled through thread connection. By means of the self-adaptation flexible assembling device, the historic problems that operation is complex, the assembling efficiency is low, the surface, making contact with a lifting clamp, of the cylinder barrel is likely to be damaged, and even the cylinder barrel is disengaged in the traditional cylinder barrel and cylinder head body assembling process can be effectively solved.

A fluid matrix display is disclosed which is a reflective display that utilizes four colored dyes to create an image. Each of the dyes corresponds to one color in a CMYK color space. Each individually addressable pixel element of the fluid matrix display is composed of four-stacked pixel chambers. Images are created by writing appropriate colored dye data into each pixel chambers of each pixel element of the fluid matrix display. Each pixel chamber is valved to admit or expunge the colored dye to and from that pixel chamber. The admitting and expunging is controlled by the use of electrorhelogic fluids, which provides for a relatively simple switching arrangement to activate and deactivate the pixel assemblies.

A magnetic privacy filter is disclosed. The magnetic privacy filter is adapted to protect the screen of a mobile device and has an anti-peep function. The magnetic privacy filter includes a filtering element and several ferromagnetic elements embedded in the filtering element. Accordingly, when the anti-peep function is needed, the magnetic privacy filter is adhered to the screen of the mobile device; while when the anti-peep function is not needed, the magnetic privacy filter can be detached from the mobile device instantly.

A hinge structure for a flat visual display device comprising: a pivotal plate connected to the flat visual display device; a fixing plate connected to a supporting portion for supporting the flat visual display device; a rotational shaft inserted to vertical planes of the pivotal plate and the fixing plate, for rotation of the flat visual display device in one degree of freedom; a frictional member which is formed on an outer periphery of the rotational shaft for enclosing the rotational shaft, and whose both ends have a frictional member tightening plane of a planar shape on which a second inserting hole is formed; and a tightening member inserted to the second inserting hole, for tightening the frictional member tightening plane, thereby tightening the rotational shaft by means of the frictional member, and generating strong breaking force accordingly.

An integrated circuit for a smart card may include a transceiver and a processor for communicating with a host device via the transceiver and performing a plurality of smart card applications. Moreover, the processor may cooperate with the host device to perform an enumeration based upon at least one default descriptor, and generate a look-up table for allocating data to respective smart card applications based upon the enumeration. Furthermore, the processor may also detect a system event and, responsive to the system event, cooperate with the host device to perform a new enumeration based upon at least one alternate descriptor and generate a new look-up table based thereon.

A food cooking appliance which utilizes both steam and heat for rapidly cooking food products is disclosed. The food products are disposed within a food cooking housing and a steam generator is provided within a steam generator housing so as to generate steam which is fluidically conducted into the food cooking housing. In this manner, the food products are cooked as a result of the steam being conducted into upper regions of cooking chambers defined within the food cooking housing while the heat generated from the heated grills or platens impart heat to the lower regions of the cooking chambers thereby cooking the food in an accelerated manner which is extremely desirable by commercial fast-food establishments. The steam generator housing is wholly separate and apart from the food cooking housing but fluidically connected to the food cooking housing by a fluid conduit which may rigid or flexible. In this manner, the food cooking housing and the steam generator housing may be located at different locations within a kitchen facility in order that the kitchen facility be capable of accommodating both the food cooking housing and the steam generator housing. The steam generator housing may also be provided with multiple fluid conduits such that a single steam generator can supply steam to a plurality of different appliances.

An instrument (1) and a method for measuring pulses of partial electrical discharges in an electrical system comprise data processing means (5) operatively associated both with an input stage (2), able to receive an analogue signal (3) representing said pulses and to provide a digital representation of the entire wave form of the pulses, to receive said digital representation, extract the value of predetermined parameters relating to the wave form of the pulses and transfer to and output stage (4) a processed digital signal comprising said values, the processing means (5) being able to operate substantially in real time, i.e. with no need for a memory for the intermediate storage of the data. Known solutions within the field of the measurement of partial discharge pulses for diagnostic purposes provide for the use of peak detector instruments, which are not able to measure all information useful for a diagnosis of the electrical system, and oscilloscopes interacting with a computer, disadvantageous in terms of costs and of calculation efficiency.
