Abstract: A surgical instrument for use with a surgical portal apparatus includes an elongate shaft having proximal and distal ends and defining a longitudinal axis and a dilating member disposed at the distal end of the elongate shaft. The dilating member has a first longitudinal arc segment and a second longitudinal arc segment in diametrical opposed relation to the first longitudinal arc segment. The first and second longitudinal arc segments define respective first and second radii of curvature transverse to the longitudinal axis. The first and second radii of curvature decrease from proximal to distal to define a generally tapered configuration of the dilating member. The first radius of curvature is greater than the second radius of curvature at predefined longitudinal positions of the dilating member such that the first longitudinal arc segment extends distally beyond the second longitudinal segment to define a penetrating tip.   The penetrating tip has a reduced profile and is dimensioned to facilitate initial insertion of the dilating member into tissue.

IPC: B01D53/26
Filed: 2009-06-18
Abstract: Large quantities of high purity and high pressure nitrogen or oxygen gas are produced using a portable system. A  PSA, VSA, TSA, or permeable membrane system cleans the air of water and carbon dioxide, as normally required by the cryogenic distillation cycle, but additionally, a significant amount of the oxygen or nitrogen is also removed, depending on the desired produced gas. The removal of the oxygen or nitrogen before the cryogenic process permits the distillation column to be signifi-cantly shorter than would otherwise be required. This in turn reduces the size of the equipment such that it can easily be transport-ed and setup. Additionally, a high pressure liquid pump is used to boost the pressure of the nitrogen or oxygen immediately before it goes through the last pass of the cryogenic heat exchanger where the liquid is vaporized and the incoming gas is cooled.
