20090076351Rehabilitation System for Neurological Disorders - A rehabilitation system for neurological disorders, especially for the rehabilitation of patients being in a vegetative state or minimal conscious state, comprises at least two sensors adapted to measure two different physiological values of the patient and a stimulation generator. Initially predefined target signals determined and based on parameters relating to the injury are generated and, during a rehabilitation session, compared with the measurement signals to drive the stimulation generators delivering sensory stimulation to the patient as feedback. The controlling processor is adapted to change the predefined target signals during a rehabilitation session based on the development or changes of the measurement signals of the different physiological values, to enable a faster and better improvement of the alertness of the patient.03-19-2009
20090149783System And Method For A Cooperative Arm Therapy And Corresponding Rotation Module - A system for arm therapy of a user comprises a device for determining the position of the user, a first drive, an upper arm rotation module, an upper arm cuff, at least one hinge movably connecting the upper arm cuff and the first drive, a second drive, and a rotation drive provided on the upper arm rotation module itself. The upper arm cuff is connected to the arm of the user and has a substantially hollow-cylindrical shape when it is closed. The first drive and the second drive are adapted to place the upper arm rotation module in a defined spatial position, and the rotation drive is adapted to turn the upper arm cuff about its main axis relative to the outer part of the upper arm rotation module.06-11-2009
20100006737Device for Adjusting the Prestress of an Elastic Means Around a Predetermined Tension or Position - A device for adjusting the prestress of an elastic means around a predetermined tension or position can especially be used to adjust the height of and the relief force acting on a weight. A mechanic adjustment unit is connected in parallel to the elastic means to preadjust the value of the predetermined tension comprising a movable portion engaging the connection portion between elastic means and adjustment unit and a force exerting element being attached at said movable portion. The mechanic adjustment unit is in an instable equilibrium position at said predetermined tension or position, the movement of the movable portion being such that the force exerting element adds an adjustment or compensation force upon deviation of the predetermined tension or position of the elastic means.01-14-2010

20100178190Accurate Powder Metal Component, Assembly and Method - The invention provides an accurate powder metal component having a body with opposed surfaces at least one of which has at least one projection of smaller cross-sectional area than the main portion of the body of the component. The distance from the free end of the projection to the opposite end of the component defines one dimension of the component that must be relatively accurate, in one embodiment to slide against and form a seal that inhibits liquid flow against another component of an assembly. In the manufacturing method, the powdered metal component is made by compaction to form the body including a projection at the end, is sintered and thereafter is reduced in the dimension between the end of the projection and the opposite end of the component by coining the free end of the projection so as to reduce the dimension to within a tolerance of the nominal specified dimension.07-15-2010

20080263455GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE FOR ELECTRONIC FILE SHARING - A method, implementable in a system coupled to a display device and a network, includes generating in a first region of a screen of the display device a user-interface portion associated with a first electronic destination address. The user-interface portion is configured to receive from a second region of the screen, in response to a command by a user of the system, a first icon representing a data set. In response to the user-interface portion receiving the first icon, a copy of the data set, or the data set itself, is electronically transferred over the network to the first destination address.10-23-2008
20080263456GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE FOR ELECTRONIC FILE SHARING - A method, implementable in a system coupled to a display device and a network, includes generating on a screen of the display device a first icon representing a data set. In response to a command by a user of the system to transfer respective copies of the data set over the network to multiple recipients, a visual indication of the status of the transfer of the copies to the recipients is displayed in association with the first icon. In response to each copy being completely received by each recipient, the visual indication is prompted to indicate transfer completion.10-23-2008

20100269826Liquid-Evaporate Delivery Device - The present application relates to a liquid-evaporate delivery device which relies on the efficient use of air currents to deliver liquid evaporate to airspace around the device. Efficient air currents may be provided by rotating the air currents around the wick, by providing a helical channel for the air to flow around the wick, and/or by aligning a fan with the longitudinal axis of the wick.10-28-2010

20120005119Systems and Methods for Determining a United States Average Retirement Age Index - Systems and methods for determining a U.S. average retirement age index, the index including a year and week. The method determines a wealth at death of an average U.S. couple for a first retirement age. If wealth at death is greater than zero, the retirement age is decreased by one and the wealth at death value is recalculated. This process continues until the wealth at death value is less than zero, at which point the year of the retirement age index is determined by adding one to the current year of the retirement age. The week of the retirement age index is determined by: dividing the opposite of a wealth at death value for the year prior to the year of the U.S. average retirement age index by a wealth delta and multiplying the result by fifty-two.01-05-2012

20110270595MODEL DRIVEN APPROACH FOR AVAILABILITY MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK (AMF) CONFIGURATION GENERATION - A method and system for generating an Availability Management Framework (AMF) configuration based on a model driven approach. The AMF configuration is an instance of an AMF sub-profile that can be used to model resources and services to be protected, and is generated from an instance of the Entity Type Files (ETF) sub-profile and an instance of the Configuration Requirements (CR) sub-profile. The ETF sub-profile can be used to model the resources provided by vendors, and the CR sub-profile can be used to model configuration requirements. Each of the AMF sub-profile, the ETF sub-profile and the CR sub-profile is a specialization of pre-defined Unified Modeling Language (UML) meta-classes. An input that includes an ETF model and a CR model, which are instances of the ETF sub-profile and the CR sub-profile, respectively, is transformed into an AMF model as the AMF configuration.11-03-2011
