20130018458 | PERIVALVULAR SEALING FOR TRANSCATHETER HEART VALVE - The present disclosure is directed to embodiments of catheter-based prosthetic heart valves, and in particular, prosthetic heart valves having sealing devices configured to seal the interface between the prosthetic valve and the surrounding tissue of the native annulus in which the prosthetic valve is implanted. In one embodiment, a prosthetic heart valve includes an annular sealing member that can be placed in a delivery orientation extending axially away from one end of the valve when the valve is in a radially compressed state. When the valve is expanded, the expansion of the frame causes the sealing member to be pulled to an operative orientation covering a portion of the frame. The present disclosure also discloses new mechanisms and techniques for mounting valve leaflets to a frame of a prosthetic heart valve. | 01-17-2013 |
20130150956 | PROSTHETIC HEART VALVE HAVING IMPROVED COMMISSURE SUPPORTS - A prosthetic heart valve according to the present disclosure comprises a radially collapsible and expandable annular frame and a leaflet structure comprising a plurality of leaflets mounted within the frame. The frame in particular embodiments can have commissure attachment portions that are configured to support the commissures of the leaflets at locations spaced radially inwardly toward the longitudinal flow axis of the prosthetic valve relative to the frame portions circumscribing the moveable portions of the leaflets. When the leaflets open under pressure of blood flowing through the prosthetic valve, the moveable portions of the leaflets are retained at positions spaced inwardly from the inner surface of the frame to protect against abrasion of the leaflets. | 06-13-2013 |

20150367260 | DOUBLE-ACTION PUSHER CENTRIFUGE AND PUSHER BASE DEVICE - A double-action pusher centrifuge separates a mixture into solid cake and liquid. The pusher centrifuge includes a screen drum rotatable about an axis and in which a pusher base device is arranged to be movable along the axis of rotation. The solid cake is displaced by an outer ring region of the pusher base device. A plurality of axial passage openings are disposed in the outer ring region and connect front and rear regions of the screen drum. A feed unit is arranged at an inflow disk such that the mixture can be introduced via the feed unit and the inflow disk into empty space on the screen drum on displacement of the solid cake. An inflow gap applies the mixture into the empty space, and is between an inflow edge of the inflow disk and a pusher base plate of the pusher base device with an inflow region. | 12-24-2015 |

20130316153 | Constructions Comprising Rutile-Type Titanium Oxide; And Methods of Forming and Utilizing Rutile-Type Titanium Oxide - Some embodiments include methods of forming rutile-type titanium oxide. A monolayer of titanium nitride may be formed. The monolayer of titanium nitride may then be oxidized at a temperature less than or equal to about 550° C. to convert it into a monolayer of rutile-type titanium oxide. Some embodiments include methods of forming capacitors that have rutile-type titanium oxide dielectric, and that have at least one electrode comprising titanium nitride. Some embodiments include thermally conductive stacks that contain titanium nitride and rutile-type titanium oxide, and some embodiments include methods of forming such stacks. | 11-28-2013 |
20150179467 | Methods of Forming Patterns - Some embodiments include methods of forming patterns. A first mask is formed over a material. The first mask has features extending therein and defines a first pattern. The first pattern has a first level of uniformity across a distribution of the features. A brush layer is formed across the first mask and within the features to narrow the features and create a second mask from the first mask. The second mask has a second level of uniformity across the narrowed features which is greater than the first level of uniformity. A pattern is transferred from the second mask into the material. | 06-25-2015 |

20130179178 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PATIENT CARE PLAN MANAGEMENT - A method and system is described for implementing patient care management functionality. The disclosure includes querying a set of clinical rules and obtaining claims data containing clinical information relating to a plurality of patients. The system can identify patients that would benefit from care management and create a listing of markers, or conditions, associated with each identified patient based on the claims data containing clinical information relating to the patient. The system generates an individual care plan for a patient base on the identified markers and the claims data containing clinical information relating to the patient. | 07-11-2013 |

20090293198 | Covering system - The covering system includes a plurality of cover members having releasable fasteners disposed on the periphery of the cover members for forming a case or cover for a pillow, cushion, or other article, such as a laptop computer. The releasable fastener may be a zipper fastener in which each cover member has a stringer attached about its periphery and a slider that is not permanently attached to a cover member, but which is temporarily locked to the teeth assemblies of two cover members so that the cover members can be zipped to form a case for the article. The two cover members may have different designs, and a single cover member may have different decorative designs on opposite sides to form a reversible cover member. The covering system permits panels to be interchanged or reversed to provide the case with any desired decorative appearance. | 12-03-2009 |
20100299886 | Zipper with removable slider - The zipper with removable slider includes two completely separable tooth rows each having opposite first and second end pins overlapping one another. The slider includes two tooth row passages extending therethrough, with an end pin receptacle overlying the tooth row passages. The tooth row passages accept passage of the two tooth rows therethrough and merge to selectively join or separate the tooth rows to form or separate the zipper chain, depending upon the direction of slider movement. The end pin receptacle accepts the end pins at adjacent ends of the first and second tooth rows, and selectively locks those end pins in place in the slider to secure the slider in position on the zipper assembly and hold the zipper closed. The slider may be completely removed from both tooth rows and the panels to which the tooth rows are attached may be separated, inverted or interchanged as desired. | 12-02-2010 |

20160036104 | BATTERY CELL HEAT EXCHANGER WITH GRADED HEAT TRANSFER SURFACE - A battery cell heat exchanger formed by a pair of mating plates that together form an internal tubular flow passage. The tubular flow passage is generally in the form of a serpentine flow passage extending between an inlet end and an outlet end and having generally parallel flow passage portions interconnected by generally U-shaped flow passage portions. The flow passage provides a graded heat transfer surface within each generally parallel flow passage portion and/or a variable channel width associated with each flow passage portion to provide improved temperature uniformity across the surface of the heat exchanger. The graded heat transfer surface may be in the form of progressively increasing the surface area associated with the individual flow passage portions with heat transfer enhancement features or surfaces arranged within the flow passage portions. The channel width and/or height may also be varied so as to progressively decrease for each flow passage portion. | 02-04-2016 |
