Abstract: A femur slide has a patella shield and two convex curved condyle cups which are anteriorly rigidly joined by the patella shield. The two condyle cups and the patella shield define internally anterior and posterior matching surfaces which correspond with a femural ventral cut and with a femural dorsal cut. Relative to a reference plane which is defined by posterior slide surfaces of the condyle cups, an anterio-medial matching surface lies nearer to the reference plane than an anterio-lateral matching surface. The anterior matching surfaces are defined by a slanted surface with is continuously slanted in a direction from lateral to medial to posterior, and an angle between the slanted surface and the reference plane lies between three and ten degrees.

Patent MX-152476-A (MX)
Inventor: DIGIOVANNI JOHN
IPC: A61B17/128
Filed: 1983-02-04
Abstract: A multiple clip applier including a handle and a cartridge which holds a large number of ligating clips and which snaps into a cartridge-receiving channel on the handle. The handle operates like an elongted scissors with scissors handles at one end and jaws at the other to which clips may be delivered in rapid succession. Opening and closing the scissors handles operates the mechanism of the handle to open and close the jaws and to provide a long stroke motion for delivering clips from the end of the cartridge to the nose section. Clips may be indexed through the cartridge by reciprocating parts of the cartridge with respect to one another with a short stroke cocking motion captured from the long stroke delivery motion from a cooperating slot and pin mechanism. These two motions are accomplished within the envelope of motion of the normal opening and closing of the scissors handles to operate the jaws of the applier and to feed and index clips from the cartridge to the nose. The mechanism of the present invention permits the overall shape of the handle to be small, compact and readily adaptable for use even deep in an incision site.

Title: Method of softening fabrics
Inventor: PARSLOW M W
IPC: C11D1/62
Filed: 1983-02-03
Abstract: A method of treating fabrics comprises contacting the fabrics with an aqueous liquor having a pH less than about 7.5, such as between about 5.0 and about 7.0, the liquor containing a cationic fabric softener and lanolin. The liquor is formed by adding to water a composition containing the cationic fabric softener and the lanolin, the concentration of these components in the liquor preferably being from 50 ppm to 500 ppm. The lanolin may be replaced by a lanolin-like material such as derivatives thereof or one or more of the active constituents of lanolin either extracted therefrom or derived from other sources. Preferred ratios of cationic softener to lanolin are 20:1 to 1:20 by weight. A a liquor to flabric ratio of less than 25:1 is preferred. The method generally leads to a deposition of cationic softener and lanolin of less than 0.5% by weight of the fabric.
