Abstract: This refuse receptacle (pedal bin) includes a basket consisting of a support (1) and of a removable container (2) open at its top (2a), which is mounted so as to rock on a self-supporting chassis (6), including a fixed lid (3) intended to close the said opening (2a). When a pedal (4) is actuated with the foot, against a spring for returning towards the closure position, the basket (1-2) rocks on the chassis (6), distancing the opening (2a) from the lid (3). The two end-of-travel positions are such that the corresponding longitudinal directions (7) of the container (2) are both inclined with respect to the vertical and in different directions from each other, the vertical being defined as inclined with respect to the axis of the cylindrical part of the chassis via the base (30) of the latter placed on a horizontal floor. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A cartridge assembly for holding a lyophilized product, forming a disposable portion of a pen injector includes a cylindrical glass cartridge adapted to receive the product, a closure cap, a cartridge case, and a plunger mechanism. The closure cap is adapted to retain an elastomeric disc seal during lyophilization and includes diametrically opposed ledges. The closure cap and seal are adapted to cover a neck portion of the ampule, the neck portion having on its end a radially extending circumferential flange. The ledges of the closure cap and the flange of the neck portion allow the closure cap to remain open during lyophilization, oxygen purge and nitrogen overlay. An oval-shaped indentation formed on the inside of the closure cap aids in snapping the closure cap about the flange without crimping to retain the closure cap underneath the flange. Reconstitution of the lyophilized drug is accomplished without foaming by use of an obliquely angled connector which causes the diluent to indirectly impinge on the drug. The injection pen and cartridge assembly cooperate such that the length of travel of the plunger rod during retraction is less than the axial length of a recess in the rod tip.

Abstract: Apparatus is disclosed for determining at least two outside dimensions of a rectangular package travelling at a known velocity, the package including first and second substantially parallel sides extending the length of the package. The apparatus comprises conveyor means (12), first and second side sensor means (21 and 22), and calculating means (100). The conveyor means (12) moves the package at said velocity along a path from a first to a second location. The first side sensor means (21) senses the presence of the package's first side and the distance of the first side relative to a reference point. The second side sensor means (22), pointed in a direction substantially opposite to that of the first sensor, senses the distance of the package's second side relative to a second reference point, the second reference point being at a known distance relative to said reference point. The calculating means (100) determines the width of the package by use of the first and second side sensors (21 and 22) and also determines the length of the package by determining the distance travelled by the package between the point at which the first sensor senses the presence of the package to the point at which the first sensor no longer senses the side of the package. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A machine has rotating components that generate radial and lateral vibration forces. When some of these are rotated the forces are measured by load cells mounted on one of the components. The cells produces analogue voltages corresponding to the forces. These are input to a computer converted in stages to digital signals, a frequency domain representation and then a power spectrum that shows the amplitudes of different frequencies. These amplitudes are compared with acceptable amplitudes for selected groups of frequencies. In one aspect the machine has a load wheel freely rotating on a spindle, a motor driven spindle and motor driven grinders. The load cells are on the load wheel spindle.

Abstract: An improved above-the-knee prosthesis with an anatomically configured socket is characterized by one or more contours which correspond to a pre-selected anatomical contour of the upper or lower residual thigh. By exaggerating the depth of the contour in the socket as compared with the corresponding contour in the thigh, the socket grips the residual thigh and maintains the femur in proper alignment. The new channels and contours allow the patient using the socket to have improved rotational support and control over the prosthesis by providing structures which the muscles of the upper and lower residual thigh can "grip." The socket snugly contains the thigh and maintains it, throughout the gait cycle, in a proper anatomical position. This fit increases the comfort of the prosthesis and minimizes gait abnormalities common with other artificial limbs. The increased support helps maintain the physical condition of the residual limb. The extended and new channels allow the muscles of the patient's residual thigh to flex and contract against and around the channels, thereby reducing muscle atrophy. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Forceps instrument comprising a sheath having a first end and an elongated maneuvering element slidably disposed in the first end of said sheath. The sheath has an axis. The instrument comprises two jaw-pieces, at least one of the jaw-pieces being movable away from and toward the other of the jaw-pieces when the maneuvering element slides axially in the first end of the sheath. The jaw-pieces have, in an extension of a part thereof, an arm extending progressively toward the axis of the sheath so as to form a first, internal, inclined surface extending progressively toward the axis and facing the latter and a second, external, inclined surface extending progressively toward the axis and facing the internal surface of the sheath. The arm has a convex excrescence which is slidable substantially against the internal surface of the sheath, the excrescence having a concave hollow cavity facing the axis. The sheath has, near its end beyond which the jaws extend, a transverse element against which the internal surface of the arm slides. The elongate maneuvering element terminates in a head housed in the concave hollow cavity so that, when the elongate maneuvering element is moved toward a free end of the sheath, it pushes the jaw-pieces back beyond the end of the sheath, thus causing the internal surface of the arm, which slides over the transverse element, to pivot by a ramp effect, moving the at least one jaw of the jaw-pieces away from the other jaw, the movement away being permitted by the inclination of the external surface which protrudes from the end of the internal surface of the sheath. The excrescence of the arm pivoting, during this movement, about the head while still being guided in the sheath, reverse movement of the maneuvering element causing the jaw-pieces to move closer by a reverse movement. The transverse element includes a passage having an axis substantially parallel to the axis of the sheath for accommodating an auxiliary tool between the two jaw-pieces.
