20100261964ARTICULATING ENDOSCOPES - The invention provides an articulating mechanism useful, for example, for remote manipulation of various surgical instruments and diagnostic tools within, or to, regions of the body. Movement of segments at the proximal end of the mechanism results in a corresponding, relative movement of segments at the distal end of the mechanism. The proximal and distal segments are connected by a set of cables in such a fashion that each proximal segment forms a discrete pair with a distal segment. This configuration allows each segment pair to move independently of one another and also permits the articulating mechanism to undergo complex movements and adopt complex configurations. The articulating mechanisms may also be combined in such a way to remotely mimic finger movements for manipulation of an object or body tissue.10-14-2010

20110023132SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR GENERATING TARGET AREA INFORMATION OF A BATTLEFIELD USING INFORMATION ACQUIRED FROM MULTIPLE CLASSIFICATION LEVELS - A system and method for generating target area information. The system comprises a first processor effective to receive first information of a first classification level and a second processor effective to receive second information of a second classification level distinct from the first classification level. A cross domain processor is in communication with the first and second processors. The second processor is effective to receive a request from a requesting entity about a region of interest and interrogate a first sensor regarding the request. The second processor is further effective to receive first information from the first sensor and send the request through the cross domain processor to the first processor. The first processor is effective to interrogate a second sensor regarding the request and receive second information from the second sensor. The first processor is further effective to filter the second information based on the first and second classification levels to produce filtered information and send the filtered information through the cross domain processor to the second processor. The second processor is further effective to integrate the first information and the filtered information to produce integrated information and send the integrated information to the requesting entity.01-27-2011

20110003119OPTIMIZED HIGH TEMPERATURE THERMAL BARRIER - The invention is directed to high purity zirconia-based and/or hafnia-based materials and coatings for high temperature cycling applications. Thermal barrier coatings made from the invention high purity material was found to have significantly improved sintering resistance relative to coatings made from current materials of lower purity. The invention materials are high purity zirconia and/or hafnia partially or fully stabilized by one or any combinations of the following stabilizers: yttria, ytterbia, scandia, lanthanide oxide and actinide oxide. Limits for impurity oxide, oxides other than the intended ingredients, that lead to significantly improved sintering resistance were discovered. High purity coating structures suitable for high temperature cycling applications and for application onto a substrate were provided. In one structure, the coating comprises a ceramic matrix, porosity and micro cracks. In another structure, the coating comprises a ceramic matrix, porosity, macro cracks and micro cracks. In another structure, the coating comprises ceramic columns and gaps between the columns. In another structure, the coating comprises ceramic columns, gaps between the columns and nodules distributing randomly in the gaps and columns.01-06-2011

20110170981WALL FASTENING ASSEMBLY - A fastening assembly for retaining an object to a wall having a hole extending therethrough, including an elongated flexible planar retaining strap and a elongated rigid anchoring member which is mounted adjacent to the distal end of the retaining strap so it normal assumes a position generally perpendicular to the retaining strap. The retaining strap is flexible and can be manipulated and bent relative to the anchoring member to permit the anchoring member and retaining strap to be inserted through the hole in the wall and pulled against the back of the wall. The object to held is preferably locked onto the retaining strap on the first side of the wall, by a second anchoring member in order to retain the object against the wall.07-14-2011

20090173354Removably attachable retractable strap device - I have invented a removably attachable retractable strap device for use with conventional spinal backboards. The present invention essentially comprises a retractable strap device contained in a housing with a curved bottom to be removably attached to traditional spinal backboards for use in securing and transporting patients. The retractable strap is wound around a spring loaded retracting mechanism which is contained within a strap housing with a curved bottom. The strap housing is easily secured to a traditional spinal backboard from underneath the backboard with a spring-loaded clip mechanism so that the backboard rests on the curved bottoms of the housing devices. The spring-loaded clip is engaged by squeezing the squeeze plates, inserting the clip through a handhold or opening in the backboard, and then releasing the squeeze plates. In the preferred embodiment, the strap can be locked into an extended position by a locking mechanism so that a secure fit around the patient may be achieved. The preferred embodiment further provides a release mechanism for releasing the strap.07-09-2009
