Abstract: The invention relates to a method for operating an aerosol delivery device (10), comprising the steps of generating a predetermined amount of an aerosol in the device (10) and inducing a transport flow in the device (10) for transporting at least a portion of the predetermined amount of the aerosol outside the device (10). During the aerosol generating step, the transport flow is first induced, then stopped after a predetermined first period of time and then induced again after a predetermined second period of time. Further, the invention relates to an aerosol delivery device (10) comprising an aerosol generator (3) for generating an aerosol in the device (10), a gas conveying element (1) for inducing a transport flow in the device (10) for transporting at least a portion of the generated aerosol outside the device (10), and a control configured, during the aerosol generating step, to first activate the gas conveying element (1), then deactivate the gas conveying element (1) after a predetermined first period of time and then activate the gas conveying element (1) again after a predetermined second period of time, so that the transport flow is first induced, then stopped after the first period of time and then induced again after the second period of time.

Abstract: A tool (10) for a surface treating appliance comprises a main body (12) connected to a conduit (14). To enable the main body (12) to be widely manoeuvrable over, for example, a floor surface, the conduit (14) comprises a front section (50) and a rear section (52). The front section (50) is pivotably connected to the main body (12) for movement relative thereto about a first axis (A 1 ) to allow the conduit (14) to be raised and lowered relative to the main body (12). The rear section (52) is pivotably connected to the front section (50) for movement relative thereto about a second axis (A 2 ) to allow the rear section (52) to be angled relative to the front section (50). The front section (50) comprises at least one port (64) though which fluid is conveyed into the conduit (14) from the main body (12), and through which the first axis (A 1 ) passes. This can enable a relatively simple seal to be provided between the main body (12) and the conduit (14) to inhibit fluid loss to the external environment from the port (64) as the main body (12) is manoeuvred over the floor surface, and can allow the tool (10) to have a low profile along the length thereof.

Abstract: An improved vascular clamp structure is comprised of a clip body and two clipping pieces, all of which constitute a vascular clamp used cooperatively for medical clamping pliers. The clip body is arranged with a bridge part, and from two ends of which a clipping part extends respectively and making one side of the clip body forming an opening; the clipping piece is arranged with a clipping body with a fitting slot. The fitting slot and the clipping part can be assembled together. Both adjacent faces of the clipping bodies are respectively arranged with a groove and at least one male or female fastener inter-buckled together. Wherein, the clip body is set as a memory metal. By arranging clipping pieces, the vascular clamp of the present invention enhances the frictional areas of inter-contact. Arranging male and female fasteners at the adjacent faces of clipping pieces also enhances the clipping force, and effectively improves the slipping drawback of traditional vascular clamp. In addition, the vascular clamp is made of memory metal; by the separation of male and female fasteners, the vascular clamp further possesses the function of dismantlement.
