20120209264 | CLAMP FOR TEMPORARY OR DEFINITIVE EXTERNAL ORTHOPAEDIC FIXATION, AND EXTERNAL FIXATION SYSTEM COMPRISING SAID CLAMP - A clamp applicable to both temporary and definitive orthopaedic external fixation systems comprising a first coupling element having a pair of opposite jaws defining one or more seats to house a first component of the orthopaedic external fixation system. A second coupling element comprises a pair of opposite jaws defining one or more seats to house a second component of the orthopaedic external fixation system. An interconnection pin passes through and connects the first and second coupling elements along an axis of rotation. A fastening means is arranged to bring the clamp from a slack configuration. The first and second coupling elements are relatively rotatable along the axis of rotation to a locked configuration, and are relatively rotatable with each other. These fastening means include manually operable temporary fastening means to temporarily lock the clamp, and definitive fastening means operable with a fastening tool, to definitively lock the clamp. | 08-16-2012 |

20140031822 | Method for Treating a Fracture of a Bone Having a Medullary Canal - A method for treating a fracture of a bone with a medullary canal. A first and a second group of three elongated monocortical pins are provided. Each pin has a stem with a first end portion having a conical shape with an external thread for insertion into a cortical portion of a bone. Each pin of the first and second group of three monocortical pins is inserted a predetermined distance from the bone fracture, and penetrates only into the cortical portion of the bone without reaching the medullary cavity, the pins of the first and second group being inserted such that they are not coplanar to each other. The stems of the pins of the first and groups are blocked to a first and a second common clamp element respectively. The first and second clamp elements are joined to a common rod to form a rigid external fixation system. | 01-30-2014 |

20110131450 | USING SYNCHRONIZED EVENT TYPES FOR TESTING AN APPLICATION - Embodiments are described for using synchronized event types in testing an application configured to be executed on multiple types of networked devices. The method can include playing a macro containing recorded application events to be applied to the application for testing. The recorded application events can be stored in a macro queue during playback. Further, order independent events can be identified in the macro queue, which precede an order dependent event. This enables identified order independent events to be removed. In addition, an order dependent event in the macro queue can be removed after order independent events preceding the order dependent events are removed. Then the order dependent event from the macro queue can be played after the order dependent event has been removed from the macro queue. | 06-02-2011 |
20120303438 | POST PAID COUPONS - Systems and methods are provided for implementing coupons in conjunction with payment transactions involving electronic payment instruments. The benefit of the coupons can be provided to a customer after confirmation that the customer has satisfied all conditions of the coupon, which can include conditions on the type of good(s) and/or service(s) purchased as well as non-payment activities by the customer. If a coupon includes a non-payment activity condition, the non-payment activity can be performed either before or after the payment transaction(s) corresponding to the coupon. | 11-29-2012 |

20110307522 | Light Weight Transformation - A transformation engine and transformation processes may reduce computational resources used by a client or a server, such as during the consumption of a document. According to some implementations, a data stream is received in a first format over a network. A mapping template may be associated with the data stream. A forward-traversal of the mapping template may be performed without the accumulation of an intermediate state. Following the traversal of the mapping template, an output stream is emitted in a second format. | 12-15-2011 |

20130330652 | Membrane Electrode Assemblies for PEM Fuel Cells - The invention relates to Membrane Electrode Assemblies (“MEAs”) for solid-polymer-electrolyte proton-conducting membrane fuel cells (“PEM-FCs”) having better performance and improved durability, in particular when operated under severe electrochemical conditions such as fuel starvation and start-up/shut-down cycling. The MEAs are characterized in that at least one of its two electrode layers (EL1 and/or EL2) contains a first electrocatalyst (EC1) comprising an iridium oxide component in combination with at least one other inorganic oxide component and a second electrocatalyst (EC2/EC2′), which is free from iridium. Preferably, an iridium oxide/titania catalyst is employed as EC1. The MEAs reveal better performance, in particular when operated under severe operating conditions such as fuel starvation and start-up/shut-down cycling. | 12-12-2013 |
