International Classification:

A61B 1756

US Classification:

606 58, 606 57, 606 59

Abstract:

A method and apparatus are disclosed for treating bone fractures by the application of intermittent pneumatic compression.

US Classification:

264318, 2643281, 264334, 264337, 425441, 425DIG 58

Abstract:

A molded article having a field of molded hooks formed integrally thereon is made in a mold in which the hook-forming cavities are on a surface of a retractable mold insert. The insert is retracted from the molded article prior to the article's release from the mold, so that the molded hooks do not experience excessive shear forces as the article is removed from the mold cavity. The invention is especially useful when the draft angle of the hook-bearing surface of the molded article is less than about 45.

US Classification:

23546224, 235435, 235454, 23546241, 382321

Abstract:

A method and apparatus for imaging an arcuate surface of an object such as a bottle with a label thereon. Such bottle may be a wine bottle. In one embodiment, the bottle is placed into an imaging chamber. Preferably, space between the imaging chamber and the wine bottle is covered with a flexible material to exclude light from the chamber. A scanner, or imaging device, is moved either manually or under the control of a microprocessor with respect to the bottle to image the bottle label. Either the scanner travels along an arcuate path around the bottle or the bottle rotates on a turntable to cause the label to move past a stationary scanner. A controller is associated with the imaging device and/or the turntable to control movement of the imaging device or the turntable to cause imaging of the bottle label. The image of the scanned label may be stored in memory, sent to a printer, or wirelessly transmitted to remote storage and/or output devices.

Henry McVicker - Naples FL, US

International Classification:

B32B003/06

US Classification:

428/100000, 024/442000

Abstract:

An injection molded insert having a field of integrally formed hooks on a surface can be used as a component of a molded article, such that the field of hooks will be on a surface of the molded article. The molded article having the mold insert as a component can be formed by various molding processes such as injection molding, compression molding, blow molding or rotational molding, or by forming from a moldable mass such as sprayable resins, epoxy-based resins, or fiberglass-based resins.
