Abstract: A method and apparatus for winding a cuff (10, 60) having an inflatable chamber (12, 64) around a body portion of a living subject, in measuring a blood pressure of the subject, the method including the steps of positioning the cuff and the body portion of the subject relative to each other such that the cuff surrounds the body portion, supplying a predetermined amount of gas into the chamber of the cuff to hold the gas in the chamber, and fastening the cuff after increasing a tension of the cuff till a gas pressure in the chamber of the cuff surrounding the body portion reaches a reference value. A cuff winding apparatus includes a gas supplying device (18, 20, 28) which supplies a predetermined amount of gas into the chamber (12) of the cuff (10) to hold the gas in the chamber, a pressure sensor (16) which detects a gas pressure in the chamber of the cuff, a judging device (28, S2-4) for judging whether the pressure of the chamber detected by the pressure sensor has reached a reference value, and a driving device (48, 28) which increases a tension of the cuff to reduce a diameter of the cuff surrounding the body portion of the subject, the driving device holding the diameter of the cuff when the judging device makes a positive judgment.

Abstract: A filler valve (22) and fitting (82) for a gas spring (20). The filler valve has a body (80) slidably received in a cavity in a housing and movable between a first sealed position for retaining gas within a gas chamber in the spring and a second position for bleeding gas from the chamber (30) to relieve pressure within the chamber. For charging the chamber (30) with gas, a core valve (84) is carried by the body (80). Preferably, the housing has an exterior configuration and size of a standard flow-through type coupling having a pair of exteriorly threaded portions (100,106) separated by a central portion with parallel flats (108) constructed and arranged for engagement by a tool to install and remove the housing (82). The body has opposed effective areas with the effective area adjacent an inlet in the housing being greater than the effective area adjacent the outlet for enabling gas within the chamber to be compressed to a pressure much greater than the supply line pressure. Preferably the ratio of effective areas ranges from about 4:1 to 8:1 and preferably about 6:1 to enable the gas in the chamber to be compressed up to a pressure of about six times the supply line pressure.

Title: Stapler
Inventor: MAGNUSSON LARS-INGE
IPC: B25C5/08
Filed: 1994-05-20
Abstract: A stapler comprises a stapler head (12) which accommodates a strip of wire staple blanks and is pivotable between a starting position and a working position, in which it is applied against a sheaf of papers (14). A staple shaper (20) shapes the blanks into substantially U-shaped staples, and a staple driver (21) releases the thus-formed staples from the strip and drives them one by one into the sheaf of papers (14). A pivotable operating means (15) reciprocates the staple shaper (20) and the staple driver (21). A drive means (22-26) is adapted to pivot the operating means (15) in such a manner that it causes the staple driver (21) to drive a staple into the sheaf of papers (14) in a driving stroke and causes the staple shaper (20) to shape the following staple in a shaping stroke, as well as adapted to pivot the stapler head (12) to its working position before the staple driver (21) performs the driving stroke and retain it there during the driving stroke of the staple driver. The drive means (22-26) synchronises the pivotal movements of the stapler head (12) and the operating means (15) in such a manner that the staple driver (21) performs a prolonged stroke in the driving direction and the staple shaper (20) performs the last phase of the shaping stroke when the stapler head (12) has left its working position in order to be pivoted back to its starting position.
