Abstract: An external retaining device, individually or in combination with a catheter having an elongate tube, is provided. The external retaining device includes a base member having a lower surface and an upper surface with a passage extending therethrough. A tube guide portion extending from the upper surface of the base member has two side walls with an elongate channel therebetween. The channel has a first section located proximate the passage and bends upwardly along a smooth transition to a second section angled relative to the first section. A manually-operable clip assembly is located proximate the second section of the channel. The clip assembly preferably includes opposing clip elements mounted for pivotal movement between an open position and a closed position. Preferably, pivotal movement is accomplished by forming the side walls of elastic material and affixing each clip element to a corresponding side wall, such that flexure of the side walls toward each other moves the clip elements to the open position. The elongate tube of the catheter is thereby directed through the passage and positioned within the channel to form a smooth 90° bend, and secured in place at the second section of the channel with the clip assembly moved to the closed position. An internal retaining device also can be used in combination with the external retaining device.

Abstract: Instead of having to subscribe to multiple telephone lines for multiple devices that a user has, a module of the present invention can connect each of the user's devices to an outside communications network using the same telephone line. Such multiple inside connections to the outside communication network using the same telephone line is achieved by provisioning within the invention module the appropriate telephone and computer interface units for the user's telephones and computers, and an appropriate network interface unit for connection to the telephone line that connects the invention module to the external communications network. The module of the instant invention is further provisioned with an IP routing submodule that communicatively connects the various interface units together by managing the addressing of the data that traverses between the outside network and the devices of the user, by routing the appropriate data packets to the appropriate devices by means of pseudo internal IP addresses assigned to the various devices of the user. Other components within the module convert those data packets that are a part of a voice signal into the appropriate analog signal for output to the telephone of the user. Conversely, such components convert any analog input from the user into a corresponding digital signal that is packetized and output to the external communications network.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for retrieving an aircraft in a confined space involves hanging a cable, for example from a kite or mast, across the aircraft's flight path. The aircraft approaches the cable in steady forward flight, and may strike the cable at any point on the wing, fuselage, or other leading surface. The cable then slides along the airframe as the aircraft moves forward, until it is intercepted by a hook attached to the wing tip or other convenient location. The hook captures the cable, and prevents further sliding; the cable then pulls the aircraft to a stop. Compliance of the cable, optionally combined with compliance of the cable suspension, provides acceptably gradual deceleration. The aircraft is left suspended in mid-air, and is then winched or slid to the base of the cable or other convenient retrieval point. The cable suspension and other fixed objects can be kept well clear of the flight path, so that the aircraft can continue safely in the event that it misses the cable, and make another approach.
