20150272603 | SURGICAL DEVICES WITH ARTICULATING END EFFECTORS AND METHODS OF USING SURGICAL DEVICES WITH ARTICULATING END EFFECTORS - Methods and devices for using surgical devices with articulating end effectors are provided. Surgical devices with articulating end effectors can provide rotary driven pivoting of the end effector. In some embodiments, the device can include a handle, a first and a second tube extending from the handle, the second tube disposed within the first tube, and an end effector that includes a pair of distal jaws configured to move in response to rotation of the first tube about a longitudinal axis thereof and rotation of the second tube about a longitudinal axis thereof. The jaws can move in two different ways depending on whether the first and second tubes are rotating in a same direction as one another or in different ways than each other. The jaws can open/close and articulate using the same mechanical mechanism. The device can be powered, or the device can be non-powered. | 10-01-2015 |

20100092216 | TELESCOPIC AUGER DISPENSE DROP TUBE - A toner transport apparatus for a printing system in which toner is moved from a toner container to a developer housing. The toner transport apparatus can accommodate different lengths and orientations between the toner container and the developer housing. The apparatus discloses a variable length component that expands or contracts to extend the toner transport apparatus to a desired length. The toner transport apparatus can assume unique angles per station with a gear mechanism. A flexible auger can be associated with the toner transport apparatus to move material in non-vertical positions. The toner transport apparatus with the variable length component and flexible auger would provide the ability to reuse components at a variety of positions and angles. | 04-15-2010 |
20100241910 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MAINTENANCE OF A DATA-PROCESSING APPARATUS - A method and system for performing one or more preventative maintenance functions for a data-processing apparatus. One or more notifications regarding daily maintenance functions can be generated in the form of a reminder when the data-processing apparatus begins operation. A history of the maintenance functions performed can be stored in a memory through remote data pushes. An email alert can be generated and transmitted to a user regarding incomplete maintenance functions in order to track the maintenance activities. The data-processing apparatus can be monitored in a consolidated manner and the occurrence of fault information stored and then rapidly retrieved to provide notifications indicative of such maintenance data. | 09-23-2010 |

20110313707 | CORRECTING IN-LINE SPECTROPHOTOMETER MEASUREMENTS IN THE PRESENCE OF A BANDING DEFECT - What is disclosed is a novel system and method for detecting and correcting for In-Line-Spectrophotometer (ILS) measurements of constant value patches in the presence of banding in multi-function document reproduction systems. The present system analyzes the ILS data stream to identify structured noise components due to banding. An FFT is performed on each L*a*b* component in the ILS stream for a single test page. The peak frequencies from the FFT of the L* a* and b* channels are compared. Common frequencies in all 3 channels indicate a banding component. Once the banding frequencies and the banding wavelength are known, the color patch target can be adjusted to ensure the color patches are synchronized to the banding wavelength. By running a series of synchronized patches and averaging results, structured noise can be eliminated. In such a manner, a reduction of banding effects on color calibration can be effectuated. | 12-22-2011 |

20120290976 | NETWORK DISTRIBUTION OF ANATOMICAL MODELS - Techniques for presenting a three-dimensional (3D) anatomical representation of an anatomical structure are described. 3D models of various anatomical structures may be stored as prepackaged anatomical data. A user device, e.g., a networked workstation, may receive the prepackaged anatomical data from a networked computing device, e.g., a server, and present at least a portion of a 3D model as a 3D anatomical representation. The user device may also present a menu with the 3D anatomical representation that allows the user to manipulate the 3D anatomical representation and measure various aspects of the 3D anatomical representation. In some examples, the user device may also present a representation of a medical device in conjunction with the 3D anatomical representation. | 11-15-2012 |

20090248127 | IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL ELECTRICAL LEAD BODIES PROVIDING IMPROVED ELECTRODE CONTACT - A distal section of an implantable medical electrical lead body includes a pair of pre-formed arcuate segments between which an approximately straight segment extends. The approximately straight segment includes a first portion extending distally from a first of the pair pre-formed arcuate segments, a second portion extending from the first portion, a third portion extending from the second to a second of the pair pre-formed arcuate segments. An electrode is coupled to the second portion of the approximately straight segment, and the adjacent first portion has a stiffness which is less than that of the first of the pair pre-formed arcuate segments and preferably less than the stiffness of the third portion, so that, when the distal section of the lead body is implanted, for example, within a cardiac vein, the lead buckles to bring the electrode into closer contact with surrounding tissue. | 10-01-2009 |

20110251829 | SIMULATING PAINTING - A paint simulation system described herein includes a brush component that outputs a three-dimensional computer-implemented model of an image editing tool. A paint component receives the three-dimensional computer-implemented model and generates a two-dimensional map corresponding to a footprint of the three-dimensional model with respect to a computer-implemented canvas, wherein resolution of the two-dimensional map is substantially similar to resolution of a paint map of the computer-implemented canvas. | 10-13-2011 |
