20110277849 | Environmental NuChain enterprise resource planning method and apparatus - NuChain supply chain and disposal chain apparatus are created by NuPurposing containers and conditioning and transforming such containers from fluent material delivery containers into waste collection containers realizes operational efficiency. Novel structural features of waste collection systems allows bottle docking for the ingress of collection material into fluent material distribution containers as well as operation as a non-bottle docking waste collection system. The application moving canister and lid pillars closer together respectively operates to contain a force being drawn away from the collection system by sealing the system. The application moving other canister and lid pillars closer together operates to unseal the system. | 11-17-2011 |
20110282306 | NuChain NuPurposing container conditioning method and apparatus - NuChain supply chain and disposal chain apparatus are created by NuPurposing containers, conditioning and transforming such containers from fluent material delivery containers into waste collection containers. Novel structural features of the waste collection systems allows bottle docking for the ingress of collection material into fluent material distribution containers as well as operation as a canister waste ingress collection system. The application of counter opposing forces on a canister and a lid operates in sealing and the unsealing and assembly and disassembly. A reduced pressure configured to be drawn away from said container inducing ingress of air into said container by a source of reduced pressure. | 11-17-2011 |
20110282308 | NuChain container conditioning registration and transformation method and apparatus - Novel structural features of forming a vacuum draw path by re-labeling, registering and conditioning containers intended to create NuChain supply chain and disposal chain apparatus for sealing bottles, plugs and lids are disclosed for the transformation of clean delivery containers into collection containers. Containers are conditioned for NuChain apparatus creation by container conditioning involved NuPurposing such as re-labeling, autoclaving, washing, pasteurizing, re-processing, sterilizing, rinsing, and/or storage in climate controlled scenarios to maintain the condition of containers for NuPurposing for a facility, between departments of a facility or between different separate entities. Containers are re-identified for NuPurposing. A tool may be deployed for removal of a plug from a bottle. | 11-17-2011 |
20120046592 | HIFU APPLICATOR - An applicator for providing HIFU therapy to a patient includes a HIFU transducer that is rotatably coupled to a frame. In one embodiment, the rotatable coupling is configured such that the HIFU transducer can be mechanically oriented to position a focal zone of the HIFU transducer at any desired location in a treatment volume radially outward from a longitudinal axis of the applicator while the HIFU transducer remains within a housing that is not more than a defined percentage (e.g., 50%) larger than the maximum diameter of the HIFU transducer. In one embodiment, the HIFU transducer is rotatably coupled to the frame with a ball and socket joint. In another embodiment, the HIFU transducer is rotatably coupled to the frame with an offset gimble assembly. A pair of linear actuators and drive shafts engage the HIFU transducer to orient HIFU transducer in a desired direction. | 02-23-2012 |
20120109055 | Disposal Chain Supply Systems Method And Apparatus - This patent application teaches methods and apparatus of an efficient disposal chain system which includes a process of receiving fluid enclosing containers, transforming said containers into collection containers by integrating said containers into vacuum canister collection systems. Such a collection system includes a remote vacuum source configured to draw a vacuum force away from said container and towards said container. Such a vacuum source is configured to draw room air.
