a housing including spaced apart intravenous fluid ports and a tapered male fitting that defines one of the ports and is operable to be attached to the catheter, with a fluid passageway extending between the ports to present a passageway axis; and 
a valve body being disposed within the fluid passageway and including a flexible dome-shaped wall that presents a convex surface and an opposite concave surface, with the convex surface facing the infusion direction and the concave surface facing the aspiration direction, 
said dome-shaped wall including a normally closed slit extending between the surfaces and intersecting the passageway axis, 
said dome-shaped wall flexing to open the slit in response to an infusion fluid pressure differential across the wall, wherein the pressure against the concave surface is greater than the pressure against the convex surface, 
said dome-shaped wall flexing to open the slit in response to an aspiration fluid pressure differential across the wall, wherein the pressure against the convex surface is greater than the pressure against the concave surface,

Abstract: In a millimeter waveband transceiver using an antenna and a waveguide for a connection line, it is necessary to perform transmission mode line conversion between TEM waves of a microstrip line and VTE01 mode waves of the waveguide. There is a limit to reducing the conversion loss using only a matching box for connecting the microstrip line with the waveguide. In a transmission mode line transducer for converting between the TEM waves of the microstrip line and the VTE01 mode waves of the waveguide, if the cross-sections are substantially the same size, in the case of a 50© microstrip line when the characteristic impedance of the waveguide is about 80%, i.e., 40©, the line conversion loss can be optimized. Therefore, the microstrip line is connected with the waveguide using a »/4 matching box via a ridged waveguide having a low impedance and a length of »/16 or less.

Abstract: The invention relates to a combination of a teat cup (100) and a flexible milk tube (40). The flexible milk tube (40) comprises a main duct (42) and a plurality of secondary ducts (44) for discharging milk from the teat cup (100) and for applying vacuum in the teat cup (100). The main duct (42) is confined by a duct wall (46) extending around the main duct (42). The plurality of secondary ducts (44) are included in the duct wall (46) of the main duct (42). By including the plurality of secondary ducts (44) in the duct wall (46) of the main duct (42) the flexible milk tube (40) as a whole has a smaller cross-section than that of the known milk tube. The plurality of secondary ducts (44) no longer need separate duct walls (46) forming separate tubes either connected or not with the flexible milk tube (40) comprising the main duct (42). This results in space saving.

Abstract: To provide a bi-aspherical type progressive-power lens which provides an excellent visual acuity correction for prescription values and a wide effective visual field with less distortion in wearing, by reducing a magnification difference of an image between a distance portion and a near portion of a lens, and a method of designing the same.  A progressive action of a progressive-power lens is divided in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction of the lens and then an optimal sharing ratio between the front and rear two surfaces of the object side and the eyeball side is set in each direction to configure one bi-aspherical type progressive-power lens, a sharing ratio of a progressive action in the horizontal direction of a rear surface (eyeball side surface) is set higher so that an advantage of increasing the visual field in the horizontal direction can be obtained, a sharing ratio of a progressive action in the vertical direction of a front surface (object side surface) is set higher so that a disadvantage of increasing an eyeball turning angle between the distance and near portions in the vertical direction can be restrained, also a wide effective visual field with less distortion in wearing can be provided by reducing a magnification difference of an image between the distance portion and the near portion on the progressive-power lens, further making it possible to obtain a bi-aspherical type progressive-power lens capable of reducing a machining time and cost by making it possible to machine only the surface of an eyeball side as a bilaterally asymmetrical curved surface coping with a convergence action of an eye in near vision after receiving an order, by using "bilaterally symmetrical semi-finished product" as an object side surface of the progressive refractive power lens.
