20130240052 | GATE VALVE ASSEMBLIES AND METHODS OF USE - In an embodiment, a valve assembly may include a housing having a orifice defining a flow path through the housing and a valve closure element positioned within the housing configured to control fluid flow through the housing. The valve closure element may include a side surface and drive teeth extending along at least a portion of the side surface. The valve closure element may be selectively rotatable about a rotation axis between an open position, wherein fluid flows through the orifice, and a closed position, wherein fluid flow is substantially obstructed by the valve closure element. The valve assembly may also include a worm gear assembly positioned and configured to selectively engage or mesh with one or more of the drive teeth such that rotation of the worm gear assembly may rotate the valve closure element between the closed position and the open position. | 09-19-2013 |

20140324708 | RAW SENSOR INPUT ENCRYPTION FOR PASSCODE ENTRY SECURITY - A method of encrypting sensor input entries for passcode entry security is disclosed. The method in one embodiment includes presenting a passcode entry interface on an electronic device for a user to input a passcode entry. The electronic device then receives an input event, which is indicative of at least part of the passcode entry by the user, from a sensor of the electronic device. The electronic device then encrypts a sensor value of the input event and transmits the encrypted sensor value to an external system over a network to cause the external system to decipher the passcode entry from the encrypted sensor value. | 10-30-2014 |

20120222687 | METHOD AND APPARATUS PERTAINING TO A MEDICAL DRAPE HAVING A SUCTION PORT - A medical drape has at least one suction port disposed. By one approach the medical drape includes a fenestration and the suction port is disposed within the fenestration. By one approach the fenestrated area includes an incise film (which may itself be fenestrated if desired) and the suction port is disposed through that incise film. Suction applied to this suction port facilitates maintaining the incise film in place on the patient. This suction port can have a first end configured to attach to suction tubing. The medical drape can include a patient-side spacer and this spacer can comprise a compressible, resilient material that is substantially permeable to liquids. If desired, such a spacer can be disposed over a patient-side suction opening of the suction port. | 09-06-2012 |
