| 20090183737 | PULSE WIDTH MODULATED MEDICAL GAS CONCENTRATION CONTROL - A specified concentration of oxygen in a medical gas delivered to a patient by a gas delivery system can be achieved through the use of pulse width modulation control of the flows of one or more component medical gases. The flow of component medical gases can be controlled to improve the resolution and concentration range of medical gas delivered at low flow rates. A first flow of a first medical gas is provided and a second flow of a second medical gas is introduced to achieve a desired average medical gas concentration. When the second flow of the second medical gas is introduced, the first flow of the first medical gas is reduced to maintain a desired total medical gas flow rate. | 07-23-2009 |

| 20110315800 | FIBER FEEDER - A device for breaking up compressed masses of fibers into pieces of fiber and transporting the pieces of fiber, comprising: an intake chute; a plurality of break-up implements mounted on a plurality of shafts rotatably mounted within the intake chute; a plurality of devices with protrusions, where the plurality of devices are mounted on a plurality of shafts rotatably mounted within the intake chute; and a transportation device. A compressed mass of fibers may be placed within the intake chute, the compressed mass of fibers may come into contact with the plurality of break-up implements, the compressed mass of fibers may be broken into large pieces of fiber by the break-up implements, the larger pieces of fiber may come into contact with the plurality of devices, the larger pieces of fiber may be broken into small pieces of fiber by the devices, and the small pieces of fiber may fall onto the transportation device. | 12-29-2011 |

| 20090266365 | Inflatable nasopharyngeal stent - An inflatable nasopharyngeal stent is disclosed along with a method of using same. The stent comprises a central tube having a lumen defining a central inner chamber. A plurality of inflatable spokes are disposed along the central tube. The spokes are in fluid communication with the inner chamber of the central tube and are preferably aligned in groupings along the central tube. The outer ends of the spokes connect to a rib. The un-inflated stent is inserted into the nasal passageway through a naris and positioned such that so that a portion of the device is proximal to an anatomic structure exhibiting undesirable inflammation, configuration, growth or motility. Once positioned, the stent is inflated. Upon inflation, the ribs and adjoining web members move outwardly from the central tube and press upon the tissues of the nasopharyngeal cavity. Spaces between the inflatable spokes permit the passage of air along the stent and maintain airway patency. | 10-29-2009 |
| 20100217302 | MECHANICALLY DEPLOYABLE UPPER AIRWAY STENT - A mechanically deployable upper airway stent is disclosed along with a method of using same. The stent comprises a central tube having an inner chamber and openings on its surface. A linkage rod is housed within the central tube and is provided with branched spokes that pass through the openings. In the un-deployed state the branched spokes are contained within the central tube. Deployed spokes are preferably aligned in groupings along the central tube. The outer ends of the spokes of each grouping connect to a rib. The un-deployed stent is inserted into the nasal passageway and positioned relative to occluding anatomic structures. Upon deployment, the ribs along with web members extending between the ribs move outwardly from the central tube and press upon the tissues of the pharyngeal cavity. Spaces between the extended spokes permit the passage of air along the stent and maintain airway patency. | 08-26-2010 |

| 20120111950 | COMBINED HF AND UHF RFID DEVICE - A wearable RFID device is configured with a geometry and materials that allow an HF RFID system and a UHF RFID system to operate in close proximity to a human body and to each other with minimal impact on performance. An RFID device may have a three-dimensional, multi-planar UHF antenna incorporated into a dielectric core with an HF antenna, or a single-plane UHF antenna separated from an HF antenna by a rigid spacer. A conductive metal backplane is disposed adjacent the wearable RFID device to improve antenna performance when disposed in close proximity to an absorbing body, such as a human being. | 05-10-2012 |

| 20080277816 | Method and mold assembly for making a molded foam article - A mold assembly for making a molded foam article generally includes a housing having an internal cavity and an opening into the cavity, a movable support member movable between an inner position and an outer position, an object supported by the support member and having a three-dimensional shape, and a closure. A method for making a molded foam article generally includes moving the support member to the outer position, positioning a film web over the object to form a substantially convex envelopment, moving the support member to the inner position while maintaining the film web in contact with the object to reconfigure the substantially convex film envelopment into a partially concave film envelopment, and dispensing a predetermined amount of a foamable composition into the hollow space provided by the concave envelopment. | 11-13-2008 |

| 20120059887 | Instant Messaging - Instant messaging method and communication system for communicating between a first user at a first user terminal of the communication system and a second user at a second user terminal of the communication system. Instant messages are transmitted over the communication system in both directions between the first and second user terminals, wherein the instant messages constitute a conversation between the first and second users. Each instant message of the conversation is stored in a store at a server of the communication system, wherein the server is accessible from a third user terminal of the communication system such that the first user can retrieve, at the third user terminal, each instant message of the conversation from the store. | 03-08-2012 |
