A bucket assembly is provided with a kit that includes a base plate for permanent connection to a lower part of the bucket, and sacrificial, impermanent replaceable wear edge segments for the forward lip and corner leading edges of an excavator or loader bucket. These segments form a set of “bolt on” cast wear members and wing wear segments. The base plate and wear plates are drilled and machined to accommodate the precision fitting bolting on of the replaceable lips and cast wing segments. The cast lip segments are of both left and right hand configurations and come in a variety of widths that, in combination, may tend to fit a large number of different commercially available bucket sizes. The lip top and bottom faces are shaped in a profile that may tend to result in relatively uniform wear and a reduction in friction when digging into various materials.

Devices and methods for tissue transfer are described where a cannula may be inserted into the breast of a subject at one of several points of entry. Insertion of the cannula into the breast may be accomplished by using a guidance system to distinguish between tissue types. Once desirably positioned, the cannula may be withdrawn from the breast while automatically (or manually) injecting the fat in multiple deposits of adipose tissue or fat such that the deposited fat remains within the tract formed by the withdrawn cannula. Multiple tracts of the deposited fat may be injected within the breast until the breast has been desirably remodeled and / or augmented.

A server acquires data representing the number of jobs on the daily and hourly basis for several weeks held by itself and by clients. An apparatus for executing scheduling calculates the total number of jobs on the daily basis from the acquired data representing the number of jobs on the daily and hourly basis for several weeks and determines the order in ascending order of the total number of jobs on the daily basis. The apparatus searches for a time period with long idle time sequentially from the day with the minimum total number of jobs. Regarding the target day to search for a time period with long idle time, it is determined whether a time period of 3 consecutive hrs without job is present. If a time period of 3 consecutive hrs without job is present, the middle time of the time period is scheduled as a firmware update time period, and firmware update is registered.

The invention discloses an annotation method and an annotation system of whole-genome variant data. The method comprises the following steps of S1, creating a variant data file, wherein the variant data are stored according to a national standard VCF format as an input file; S2, performing multi-allele genotyping, firstly performing genotype judgment, representing a basic group which is consistent with a reference genome by zero, and representing the basic groups which are inconsistent with the reference gene group by 1, 2, 3,..., then performing SNP and InDel multi-allele type resolution so that the allele type is represented by zero and one; S3, causing InDel generation position normalization, namely performing InDel generation position normalization according to a left justification and simplification normalization method; and S4, performing annotation, namely performing gene structure annotation, allele frequency annotation, variable site harm prediction and pathogenicity annotation. The annotation method and the annotation system improve integrity and accuracy of annotation information.

A combination aspiration / irrigation and illumination device using optical fibers circumferentially disposed around the aspiration conduit for transmitting illuminating light to a cavity to be aspirated. The ends of the optical fibers being formed at an angle relative to the aspiration conduit so as to direct the illuminating light inward to provide intensified illumination ahead of the aspiration conduit.

A swimming pool cleaner of the type movable along an underwater pool surface to clean debris therefrom. The pool cleaner includes a body having a debris inlet and a debris outlet. A rigid debris-collection canister is secured to the body over the debris outlet to collect debris in the rigid canister and pass filtered water either back into the pool or to a remote suction system such that the collected debris remain at the pool-cleaner body for easy maintenance while allowing free flow of water through the rigid canister. The rigid canister is shaped to minimize obstructions to the pool cleaner movement in the pool by providing improved buoyancy and limiting entrapment of the cleaner by underwater pool structures. The cleaner body is adapted for securement of either a water-suction hose connected to a remote suction system or a venturi-line structure connected to a water-flow line fed by a remote pump such that the pool cleaner is interchangeably usable as a suction cleaner and as a pressure cleaner.

Disclosed herein is a vortex separator for separating floating and settling substances from storm-water. The vortex separator of the present invention can separate fine settling substances as well as coarse settling substances, floating substances and oil from storm-water. To achieve the above purpose, the vortex separator of the present invention includes a separation casing, a guide plate, which is provided in the separation casing and supported by a connection plate, and an inlet pipe, which is coupled to the guide plate and extends outside the separation casing, so that the storm-water is drawn into the guide plate through the inlet pipe. The vortex separator further includes a perforated inclined skirt, which is provided below the guide plate to guide the settling substances onto a bottom of a sediment storage chamber and prevent the settling substances from being resuspended, and an outlet pipe, which is coupled to the separation casing at a position below the connection plate and extending outside the separation casing, so that the storm-water is discharged through the outlet pipe.

The present invention relates to a novel constructional principle for electric heaters, wherein the functions of frame and resilient means are separated from one another. As a frame for an electric heater, a housing is used that consists of two half-shells. Positioning aids for the PTC heating elements are arranged in the housing. The longitudinal sides of the housing are essentially made open to allow for air throughput through the heating register. A resilient device is additionally inserted into the housing, the resilient device compressing the layered structure of radiator elements, PTC heating elements and contact sheets. After the heater has been assembled, the resilient device can be inserted through a lateral opening into the heater.
