A shelving glide includes a deck having a plurality of dividers; a first trough having a first index arranged along at least a portion of a width of the deck; a second trough having a second index arranged along at least a portion of the width of the deck; and a plurality of partitions defining a plurality of pathways. A partition includes a first clip securable to the first index; and a second clip securable to the second index. The partition is adjustable along the width of the deck from a first position to a second position upon disengagement of the second clip from the second index. The first clip is adapted to disengage from the first index upon disengagement of the second clip from the second index. The partition is secured to the deck at the second position upon reengagement of the second clip to the second index.

A process for treating a carbonaceous material includes reacting the carbonaceous material and a process gas in supercritical water to at least one of hydrotreat and hydrocrack the carbonaceous material to form a treated carbonaceous material. The process is preferably carried out in a deep well reactor, but can be carried out in conventional surface-based reactors at a temperature of at least 705° F. and a pressure of at least 2500 psi.

A device used to treat heart disease by decreasing the size of a diseased heart, or to prevent further enlargement of a diseased heart. The device works by limiting the volume of blood entering the heart during each cardiac cycle. The device partitions blood within the heart, and protects the heart from excessive volume and pressure of blood. The device is placed within the interior of the heart, particularly within a ventricular cavity. The device is a hollow sac, with two openings, which simulates the shape and size of the interior lining of a ventricle of a normal heart. It allows the ventricle to fill through one opening juxtaposed to the annulus of the inflow valve to a predetermined, normal volume, and limits filling of the heart beyond that volume. It then allows blood to be easily ejected through the second opening through the outflow valve. By limiting the amount of blood entering the ventricle, the ventricle is not subjected to the harmful effect of excessive volume and pressure of blood during diastole, the period of the cardiac cycle when the heart is at rest. This allows the heart to decrease in size, or to reverse remodel, and to recover lost function. In some applications, a second device may be simultaneously placed inside the heart to take up excessive space between the heart and the primary device.

A hot beverage brewing apparatus including a pressurized hot water delivery system to provide liquid under pressure within a range of acceptable infusion temperatures without a water pump. A fresh water tank is situated above a water heater in liquid communication to maintain the water heater filled. Water in the water heater is kept at a pre-infusion temperature. When infusion process is to commence the user selects volume of water to be dispensed into infusion material, water is rapidly heated to infusion temperature and displaced from water heater by pressurised air from air pump. At the end of the brew cycle the air pump is stopped and a valve connects the water heater to atmospheric pressure to facilitate water flow from the fresh water tank into the water heater. After the infusion process an air valve may direct air from the air pump to the infusible material to dry it for ease of disposal.

A method for providing passive circuit functions in a multi-chip module and the multi-chip modules that result from incorporating these function is disclosed. Passive components such as resistors, capacitors and inductors are fabricated on or within a non-conductive spacer. The spacer is then placed between two active semiconductor dies and coupled electrically to either one or both of the dies. In this manner, area of the active dies that would normally have to be used for such passive components is freed for other uses and the spacer, which was already required in multi-chip modules, is endowed with extra functionality. In another embodiment, one or both surfaces of the spacer are coated with a conductive metal and the passive components are located within the spacer. In this embodiment, the spacer provides electromagnetic interference protection between the active dies.

Methods of forming a printed multicolor synthetic pile fabric having a substrate and pile formed of fibers arranged in random groups extending essentially uniformly across the entire width and along the entire length of the fabric are disclosed. The methods can be utilized to form fabrics wherein each of the above-mentioned groups comprises a random number of fibers extending at angles and in directions that randomly vary from the angles and directions of the fibers in adjacent groups. The methods can involve washing griege goods for selected times and at selected temperatures so as to randomly reorient the fibers forming the flocked surface of the fabric. In preferred embodiments, the fabrics are printed after fiber reorientation.

A suspended bracing system is disclosed that allows the sound board of an acoustic instrument, such as a guitar, to vibrate more. As a result, the instrument projects more tone and volume than that provided by conventional guitar sound boards. Conventional sound boards have wood or synthetic bracing glued all across the sound board. This is to prevent the bridge from pulling up when the strings are tightened to pitch. Using the suspended system, the invention disclosed herein secures the bridge, but drops the bracing below the sound board of the guitar to allow the sound board more freedom to vibrate.

A method for peeling off a thin film semiconductor element over an insulating surface by using a void, and a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device by transferring the peeled semiconductor element. According to the peeling method of the invention, a first base layer having a plurality of recessed portions is formed over a substrate, and a second base layer having a plurality of voids is formed on the recessed portions of the first base layer. On the second base layer, a third base layer is formed and a semiconductor element is formed thereon. Then, by separating the second base layer at an intersecting surface with the voids, the semiconductor element is peeled off from the substrate.

A three-dimensional machine vision scanner head for obtaining raw scan data from a target object and an integrated scan information extraction module that performs data reduction and passes to a controller selected summary target object scan information that is significant for automated control decisions in an industrial process. The scanner head contains a laser light emitter, reflected laser light detector and a communication interface for transmitting the target object scan information from the information extraction module to the controller.
