Abstract:
There is provided a tampon pledget that includes one or more enhanced features that result in the pledget exhibiting increased bypass leakage prevention. These enhanced features may include, but are not limited to, geometry, absorption, and any combinations thereof. There is also provided one or more methods for constructing a tampon pledget having increased bypass leakage protection.

Abstract:
A connector for an electrical box having a base that has an opening. A cavity is formed by a wall extending from the base. The cavity is aligned with the opening to form a passageway through the connector to receive electrical cable. At least two fingers extend inwardly and toward the base from an inner surface of the wall. At least two tabs extend outwardly and toward the base from an outer surface of the wall to retain the junction box between the at least two tabs and the base.
Abstract:
A web filter system is presented that not blocks harmful web content and provides an instantaneous message to an accountability partner of the user seeking to access harmful internet content so they can intervene. The system includes a web filter software application that is installed on the internet enabled devices of a user. The application inspects all traffic and communicates with an API to determine whether to allow, block, or redirect either specific traffic or all traffic through a transport mechanism to a filter in the cloud for further filtering, regardless of how the internet enabled device connects to the internet. The system also includes a router that establishes a home electronic network that inspects all internet traffic that occurs through the router and communicates with an API to determine whether to allow, block, or redirect traffic through a transport mechanism to a filter in the cloud.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a tampon applicator assembly having an applicator barrel with an insertion tip with a maximum of three petals. Additionally, the tampon applicator assembly can be provided with a tapered insertion tip. A shaped pledget can be housed in the applicator barrel, which provides support to the petals.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a tampon pledget with one or more of the following properties: increased absorbency rate; high absorbent capacity and fluid retention; rapid expansion potential; and ease of ejection of the pledget from the applicator. Surprisingly, the one or more properties are achieved by using a modified dual cross-pad, folded, compressed tampon pledget design.
Abstract:
A bypass blade is pivotably connected to the first terminal pad, and movable between open and closed positions. The bypass blade is electrically connected between the first and third terminal pads when in the closed position. A first disconnect blade is pivotally connected to a second terminal pad and movable between open and closed positions. The first disconnect blade is electrically connected between the first and second terminal pads when in the closed position. A second disconnect blade is pivotally connected to a fourth terminal pad and movable between open and closed positions. The second disconnect blade is electrically connected between the third and fourth terminal pads when in the closed position. An interrupter lever is connected to an interrupter and electrically connected to the third terminal pad. A hook ring is connected to the first and second disconnect blades. The hook ring is movable between closed and open positions. Moving the hook ring from the closed position to the open position moves the first and second disconnect blades from the closed position to the open position, moves the bypass blade from the open position to the closed position and moves the interrupter lever to trip the interrupter internally to break a residual current path between the second disconnect blade and the third terminal pad.
Abstract:
Polyethylene resins having improved environmental stress crack resistance, stiffness and impact resistance is made by a process comprising feeding both a chromium oxide catalyst and a silyl chromium catalyst into a polymerization reactor. The chromium oxide catalyst and the silyl chromium catalyst are on separate supports. The chromium oxide catalyst is 25-50 weight percent and the silyl chromium catalyst is 50-75 weight percent of the total weight of catalyst. The catalysts may be added separately or as a single mixture.

Abstract:
A tampon applicator assembly has a barrel with a fingergrip. The fingergrip has one or more flared portions and/or one or more rib-like or ring-like gripping structures. A tampon applicator fingergrip includes one or more flared portions having a flare angle between about 139° and about 156° and a curve represented by an equation range of y=16.127x3−1.5061x2+0.0568x+0.0001 to y=6.9136x3−0.5598x2+0.0168x+0.0003, where y is an incremental increase in a height of the curve at a distance along a length of the curve.
