Patent JP-3625846-B2 (JP)
IPC: A61M5/31
Filed: 1998-03-30
Granted: 2005-03-02
Abstract: A cap operated retractable medical device (10) has an outer body with a hinged connected outer cap (30) which moves between an open and a closed position. The device is used as a blood sampler with a conventional collection tube normally used in such devices. A movable member (40) is entirely enclosed within the outer body. A sliding interference or friction fit holds a retraction body within the mouth of the movable member, and also holds the front end of the movable member within the outer body positioned with the retraction body adjacent a stop. A double ended needle (88) is installed in the retraction body. Cam protrusions (38) on the cap engage the back of the movable member to move it forward as the cap is closed, thereby triggering retraction of the retraction body and its double ended needle entirely within the outer body. Once the cap is closed with the double ended needle safely inside, the device can be safely handled. The device is compact. It can be as short as the needles it will safely contain.

Title: Axle clamp attachment system
Inventor: MILLER LAWRENCE
IPC: B60G9/00
Filed: 2001-04-18
Granted: 2004-11-11
Abstract: The invention relates to suspensions for trucks and trailers and to systems for clamping an axle housing to a combination suspension support member and spring in such a way that the axle housing is clamped and compressed uniformly on all four sides whereby there is no appreciable tendency for the axle housing to collapse or become deformed so as to require frequent retorquing of the clamping bolts. The system uses interfitting bottom and top axle housing wraps. The bottom axle wrap has upwardly extending sides engaging opposite sides of the axle housing either directly or against interfitting downward extensions on the top axle housing wrap. Vertical clamping bolts cause the upwardly extending sides on the bottom wrap to press inwardly against the sides of the axle housing.

Title: Electronic Article Surveillance Antenna Coils with Variable Wind Geometry
Inventor: LOPEZ PEDRO
IPC: G08B13/24
Filed: 2002-07-31
Granted: 2006-10-26
Abstract: An EAS antenna having uniform antenna thickness along the antenna height is provided. The antenna is contains at least two overlapping coils where the individual coil cross-sections are variable with respect to the circumference. If the individual coil thickness is halved at the overlap, the antenna will have uniform thickness along the antenna height. This is accomplished by reducing the number of wire turns per layer along one or more sections of the coil, and simultaneously increasing the number of wire layers on the same sections.

Title: Gas feeding system for an internal combustion engine, having an improved pressure reducing valve
Inventor: RICCO RAFFAELE
IPC: F02M21/02
Filed: 2005-02-22
Granted: 2008-06-19
Abstract: In a gas-supply system for internal-combustion engines, a pressure-reducing valve (7) is set between the reservoir (3) of the gas and a distribution manifold or rail (2) that feeds the gas to a series of electromagnetically controlled injectors (1) associated to the various cylinders of the engine. The pressure-reducing valve (7) has a piston member (220) that faces a chamber set downstream of a restricted passage defined inside the body of the valve in communication between the inlet connector (11) and the outlet connector (12). The piston member (220) is pushed by thrust means (62;80) towards a position in which it causes opening of an open/close element (210) that controls the communication between said restricted passage (14) and the inlet connector (11). The piston member is preferably provided with a single seal gasket that prevents leakage of gas towards the outside through the sliding coupling of the piston member within the respective guide bushing. <IMAGE>

Title: Implants with transition surfaces and related processes
Inventor: JORDAN JASON
IPC: A61F2/38
Filed: 2007-09-05
Granted: 2014-02-06
Abstract: Implants, and processes for installing them, which replace the medial condyle and portions of the patellofemoral channel but preferably not portions of the lateral condyle that articulate relative to the tibia. Processes are provided which allow proper location and orientation of an anterior resection and a distal resection on the femur, which make use of a transition point which can be designated on the bone, for navigating proper positioning of such implants. Proper positioning of the implant relative to the femur for insuring a smooth transition between lateral portions of the implant and the lateral condyle is thus reduced to determining proper medial / lateral location of the implant on the anterior and distal resections. Such implants and processes can allow, among other things, for controlled location and orientation of an implant on the bone which saves lateral compartment bone, which eliminates the need to sacrifice the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments, and which is adapted for minimally invasive surgery with its attendant benefits.

Filed: 2007-09-19
Granted: 2011-08-25
Abstract: A system and method for performing tissue therapy may include applying a reduced pressure to a tissue site of a patient. A fluid parameter associated with applying a reduced pressure to the tissue site may be sensed. An audible fluid leak location sound may be generated in response to sensing the fluid parameter. The audible fluid leak location sound maybe altered in response to sensing that the fluid parameter changes. By altering the audible fluid leak location sound in response to sensing a change of the fluid parameter, a clinician may detect location of a fluid leak at the drape by applying force to the drape. The force applied to the drape may be a clinician pressing a finger onto an edge of the drape.

Abstract: A method and associated apparatus for melt extruding a nonwoven web includes providing a plurality of fibers from an extrusion device. The fibers are conveyed through a diverging profile portion of a fiber drawing unit (FDU) that causes the fibers to spread and expand in the machine direction within the FDU. The fibers are then conveyed through a diverging diffusion chamber spaced from the outlet of the FDU to reduce the velocity of the fibers and further spread the fibers in the machine direction. The fibers may be subjected to an applied electrostatic charge in either the diffusion chamber or the FDU. From the outlet of the diffusion chamber, the fibers are laid onto a forming surface as a nonwoven web.
