    摘要: A dog bark control device which includes a first sensor, a second sensor, a stimulation applying means, and a control unit. The control unit determines whether the animal barks, and when the animal is determined to bark, operates the stimulation applying means to apply stimulation to the animal. The control unit determines that the animal barks when the first sensing signal of the first sensor is a signal indicating that the animal barks, and at the same time, the animal is determined to make a particular motion accompanied by barking from the second sensing signal of the second sensor.

    摘要: A distributor apparatus of a common rail system for an internal combustion engine. The distributor apparatus is designed with at least one distributor device having a high-pressure line for fuel and a plurality of feed lines branching off from the high-pressure line within the distributor device. Each feed line leads to an individual accumulator and an injector. The feed line is associated with a restriction device and a discharge bore, which is designed to cooperate with a pressure-measuring device and which is arranged downstream of the restriction device, such that the restriction device is arranged in the feed line and the discharge bore, arranged in the distributor device, is connected to the feed line downstream of the restriction device.

    摘要: The present invention provides an orthopedic implant including a base device having a device surface and a fixation material attached to at least one portion of the device surface. The fixation material is configured to provide a minimally sufficient adhesive force to resist natural pull out caused by forces acting on the base device after implantation and bone growth. Also provided is a method of manufacturing an orthopedic implant. A base device with a device surface is provided and a minimally sufficient adhesive force, that can resist natural pull out caused by forces acting on the base device after implantation and bone growth, is determined. A proper amount of fixation material sufficient to provide an adhesive force equal to the minimally sufficient adhesive force is determined and fixation material is applied to the device. When the proper amount of fixation material is applied to the device surface, application is stopped.
