20110202177 | Intuitive Graphical User Interface for Carrying Out Chemical Reactions - An apparatus and method for chemical synthesis, the method includes accessing a recipe, the recipe including a sequence of one or more processing steps for the chemical synthesis. The processing steps including one or more steps. The recipe is executed by sorting the processing steps and executing the one or more selected steps prior to executing other steps. The chemical synthesis is monitored by providing status data, indicating a status of the execution and enabling input of control data to modify execution based on the status data or user-initiated modification. Information related to the status of the execution is displayed, typically as a graphical representation of a process action. | 08-18-2011 |
20130025054 | Flexible Bariatric Overlay - Apparatuses for assisting patient movement to/from a gurney to/from a patient handling system are provided. In one embodiment, a bariatric overlay is provided that includes a flexible top pallet and a rigid bottom pallet. A bladder resides between the flexible top pallet and the rigid bottom pallet. When actuated, the bladder expands and props up the flexible top pallet. The flexible top pallet, rigid bottom pallet, and bladder are made of a material translucent to an imaging modality. In various embodiments, the shape of the rigid bottom pallet is similar to the shape of a scanning bed of the patient handling system. For example, when the shape of the scanning bed is concave the rigid bottom pallet is concave in shape also. | 01-31-2013 |

20110313924 | METHOD AND SERVICE COMPUTER AND SYSTEM FOR TRANSACTING A MONETARY AMOUNT - A method and a system with a service computer (SRV) for transacting a monetary amount (AOM) from an account of a first person (A) to an automated teller machine (ATM) for cash payment of the monetary amount (AOM) to the first person (A) or to a second person (B), wherein the transaction is carried out by way of a transaction service that is administered by the service computer (SRV), wherein the first person (A) is optionally assigned an access code (MCPIN) that is transmitted by the first person (A) to the service computer (SRV) for the use of the transaction service, and wherein a connection from the service computer (SRV) to the automated teller machine (ATM) is made for releasing the cash payment, and wherein at least one telecommunication number (APN, BPN) is also transmitted from the first person (A) to the service computer (SRV), said telecommunication number being used by the service computer (SRV) for sending a report (CNF, INF) through a telecommunication service (SMS) to at least one of the persons (A, B). This allows the account holder in particular and/or the recipient to be directly informed via short messaging (SMS), for example. The account holder (A) himself can arrange the transaction and release of the cash payment quickly, easily and safely by sending an (SMS) message to the service computer (SRV). The service computer (SRV) in turn can authenticate both the account holder (A) and the recipient (B) using the telecommunication numbers reported to the service computer. | 12-22-2011 |

20080307837 | Convertible motorized latch - Disclosed is a convertible motorized latch that may be configured in either of a slam latch or a dead bolt latch configuration, just by desired selection and replacement of a minimal number of components, and which may be used on new (oem) equipment or in retrofit applications. In either preferred configuration, an electric motor contained within the latch housing operates to open or unlock the latch. Latch closure may be provided by spring actuation in a slam configuration or by further motor operation in a dead bolt configuration. Either present configuration may make use of an electrical feedback switch for signaling latch retraction while the dead bolt configuration may also include a second electrical feedback switch for signaling latch extension. A gear train may be incorporated within the latch housing to provide reduced speed and increased torque from the electric motor. | 12-18-2008 |

20100090534 | SELF-STOPPING ELECTRICAL APPLIANCE - A household appliance including a wiring, a power supply unit, a switch actuated by the wiring, and an energy store. The power supply unit is connected to a power supply network and supplies power to controlled functional units of the household appliance and to the wiring. The switch, which is actuated by the wiring, disconnects the power supply unit from the power supply network on a primary side of the power supply unit and in an idle state of the household appliance. The energy store stores energy that keeps the switch open in the idle state of the household appliance. | 04-15-2010 |
20100123357 | ELECTRICAL APPLIANCE - A household appliance which includes an activation unit, a power supply unit, a switch that is operated by the activation unit, and a capacitor that is connected in parallel to the switch on the primary side of the power supply unit. The power supply unit is connected to a power supply network and supplies, on the secondary side of the power supply unit, power to controlled functional units of the household appliance and to the activation unit. The switch is operated by the activation unit to disconnect the power supply unit from the power supply network on the primary side of the power supply unit and in an idle state of the household appliance. | 05-20-2010 |

20100095866 | TRANSPARENT CONDUCTIVE ZINC OXIDE FILM AND PRODUCTION METHOD THEREFOR - The present invention concerns a method for the generation of a transparent conductive oxide coating (TCO layer), in particular a transparent conductive oxide coating as a transparent contact for solar cells, flat panel displays and the like. The TCO layer is generated by depositing zinc oxide and additionally aluminium, indium, gallium, boron, nitrogen, phosphorous, chlorine, fluorine or antimony or a combination thereof, with the process atmosphere containing hydrogen. These TCO layers can be realized in a particularly simple and cost-effective way compared to ITO. The properties of the inventive TCO layers are nearly as good as those for ITO, regarding high transmittance and low resistance. | 04-22-2010 |
