Endoscopic cleaning and lubrication system
The endoscopic cleaning and lubrication system is a mechanical structure. The endoscopic cleaning and lubrication system is a medical device. The endoscopic cleaning and lubrication system clamps an endoscope to a working surface, such as an operating table, such that the endoscope can be cleaned and lubricated before use. The endoscopic cleaning and lubrication system comprises an endoscope clamp, a clamp mount, a gooseneck tube, and a table clamp. The gooseneck tube attaches the clamp mount to the table clamp. The table clamp attaches the endoscopic cleaning and lubrication system to the working surface. The clamp mount attaches the endoscope clamp to the gooseneck tube. The endoscope attaches to the endoscope clamp. The endoscope clamp holds the endoscope in a fixed position relative to the endoscopic cleaning and lubrication system. The gooseneck tube is a flexible structure that allows for the repositioning of the endoscope clamp.

Dispenser and process
A dispenser (10) for dispensing a flowable material M has a container (12) having an outer wall (20) and membrane (14) collectively defining a first chamber (22) configured to contain the flowable material M. The membrane (14) has a thickness and a weld seam (40) wherein the weld seam (40) has a thickness less than the thickness of the membrane (14). A fracturing mechanism (16) is operably connected to the container (12). The fracturing mechanism (16) has an extending member (64) projecting from the outer wall (20) of the container (12). The extending member (64) has a projection (66) positioned proximate the membrane (14), wherein in response to deflection of the extending member (64), the projection (66) deflects the outer wall (20) proximate the membrane (14) wherein the weld seam (40) fractures creating an opening (41) through the membrane (14) configured to allow the flowable material M to pass therethrough and from the dispenser (10).

Apparatus with closed loop feedback for forming a nanostructured thin film with porosity gradient on an array of sloped outdoor panel surfaces using meniscus drag
A thin-film coating applicator assembly is disclosed for coating substrates in outdoor applications. The innovative thin-film coating applicator assembly is adapted to apply performance enhancement coatings on installed photovoltaic panels and glass windows in outdoor environments. The coating applicator is adapted to move along a solar panel or glass pane while applicator mechanisms deposit a uniform layer of liquid coating solution to the substrate's surface. The applicator assembly comprises a conveyance means disposed on a frame. Further disclosed are innovative applicator heads that comprise a deformable sponge-like core surrounded by a microporous layer. The structure, when in contact with a substrate surface, deposits a uniform layer of coating solution over a large surface.

APPLICATOR HAVING PRESS BUTTON FOR DISCHARGING GEL-TYPE CONTENTS
The present invention relates to an applicator having a press button for discharging gel-type contents, and more specifically, an applicator having a press button for discharging gel-type contents, the applicator comprising: a pump embedded in a container body; a pressing member coupled to the upper side of the pump; a link coupled to the pressing member; and a press button formed on the outside of the link. If the press button is pressed, the link is pressed, then the pressing member connected to the link presses the pump vertically, and thereby the gel-type contents filled in the container body are pumped, and discharged through a discharge member. Thus, a predetermined amount of gel-type contents can always easily be discharged for use.
