Abstract: A method and apparatus for producing a shaft from a piece of tubing having at least one bulging portion. The method enables shafts with bulging portions to be cheaply and practicably produced. The piece of tubing bears radially against a portion adjoining the zone of the bulging portion to be produced. The piece of tubing is subjected to internal pressure which is maintained throughout the entire molding operation. The piece of tubing is acted upon by an axially operative compressive force co-operating with the internal pressure so that a portion of tubing adjoining the radially borne portion is upset so that the external diameter of the upset piece of tubing is larger than the external diameter on the unupset piece of tubing. A molding tool, having a hollow portion corresponding to the final shape of the bulging portion to be produced, is then applied to the upset piece of tubing. The bulging portion is formed by the application of radially operative compressive forces by means of the molding tool.

Abstract: This invention provides a biodegradable and bioabsorbable implant material having a high mechanical strength wherein its shape after deformation within ordinary temperature range can be fixed and maintained so that its shape can be easily adjusted at the site of operation, and it has substantially no anisotropy in view of strength so that it does not cause whitening, breakage and sharp decrease in strength when its bending deformation is repeated in any direction and it has toughness. Particularly, it provides an implant material which comprises a biodegradable and bioabsorbable crystalline polymer that has a crystallinity of 5% or more, can effect deformation such as bending or twisting within ordinary temperature range and has a shape-keeping ability to fix and maintain the shape after deformation as such, wherein molecular chains, domains of molecular chain assembly or crystals of the polymer are oriented along a large number of reference axes having different axial directions, or clusters having these reference axes having different orientation are assembled in a large number.

Abstract: To make a variable phase shifter at low cost and that is easy to manufacture, two propagation paths (3, 4) for a high frequency signal are provided in parallel between the input (1) and the output (2) of the phase shifter. These two paths are of different lengths. An intermediate node (7) on one of the paths is connected to an intermediate node (9) on the other path by a PIN diode (5). The diode is connected to the paths by a segment of line (24) further enhancing the length difference. By biasing (14-19) the diode to a desired level, it is caused to present a particular impedance to propagation. It is shown that by acting in this way the diode can vary the phase shift between the input and the output without needing to use harmful reactive components. <IMAGE>
