A fluidic device holder configured to orient a fluidic device. The device holder includes a support structure configured to receive a fluidic device. The support structure includes a base surface that faces in a direction along the Z-axis and is configured to have the fluidic device positioned thereon. The device holder also includes a plurality of reference surfaces facing in respective directions along an XY-plane. The device holder also includes an alignment assembly having an actuator and a movable locator arm that is operatively coupled to the actuator. The locator arm has an engagement end. The actuator moves the locator arm between retracted and biased positions to move the engagement end away from and toward the reference surfaces. The locator arm is configured to hold the fluidic device against the reference surfaces when the locator arm is in the biased position.

A fluidic system that includes a reagent manifold comprising a plurality of channels configured for fluid communication between a reagent cartridge and an inlet of a flow cell; a plurality of reagent sippers extending downward from ports in the manifold, each of the reagent sippers configured to be placed into a reagent reservoir in a reagent cartridge so that liquid reagent can be drawn from the reagent reservoir into the sipper; at least one valve configured to mediate fluid communication between the reservoirs and the inlet of the flow cell. The reagent manifold can also include cache reservoirs for reagent re-use.

An ankle brace includes a semi-rigid ankle cuff and a semi-rigid foot bed coupled to the semi-rigid ankle cuff. The semi-rigid ankle cuff includes a calf-supporting portion configured to extend around a lower calf of a wearer, and medial and lateral uprights extending generally downward from respective medial and lateral sides of the calf-supporting portion. The semi-rigid foot bed includes a foot plate including a posterior medial edge, a posterior lateral edge and is contoured to underlie at least a portion of a foot of the wearer. The semi-rigid foot bed includes medial and lateral wings extending generally upward from respective posterior medial and lateral edges of the foot plate, medial and lateral bend regions respectively joining the medial and lateral wings to the foot plate. Each of the medial bend region and the lateral bend region are more flexible than the foot plate.

Hinged ankle brace

A hinged ankle brace having a semi-rigid ankle cuff and a semi-rigid foot bed rotatably connected by a medial hinge and a lateral hinge provides enhanced stability and support to a wearer's ankle. The medial hinge of the ankle brace may be higher than the lateral hinge to accurately replicate the bending motion of an ankle. The ankle brace also includes ratchetably interconnected semi-rigid straps. These semi-rigid straps provide a semi-rigid structure encircling the ankle of a wearer for enhanced support. The ratchet mechanism may include a curved window that enables angular adjustment of the ratcheting straps. The ankle brace may also include a soft inner liner and a soft outer sleeve. The outer sleeve is configured to provide compression to the semi-rigid shell, which in turn provides additional compression to the ankle. The semi-rigid foot bed may include posterior extensions that cup and support the wearer's heel, and a posterior cut-out portion that receives the wearer's heel.

A spa speaker mounting and illumination receptacle includes a light transmitting circular flange and a circular light transmitting sidewall perpendicularly disposed to and supporting the flange, the sidewall including at least a first lamp receptacle and at least a first tapered portion, the first lamp receptacle being disposed to direct illumination from a lamp disposed therein into said first tapered portion, the first tapered portion being tapered to enhance the uniformity of distribution of illumination around the flange.
