Abstract: A truck bed cargo barrier for use with a truck bed for stabilizing cargo items longitudinally and laterally. The cargo barrier is slidable relative to the front and back of the truck bed along a track system. The cargo barrier may be locked in a user specified position along the track system to accommodate the size of the load being carried forming a divider, or may be flipped up into a temporary storage position for linear cargo exceeding the length of the bed. Tie down brackets for bungee cords are adjustably attached to the barrier frame to secure cargo laterally. A barrier panel is connected to laterally adjustable, rigid side plates, each including two spaced apart wheels that ride on a pair of longitudinal tracks on the side walls of the truck bed. The spaced apart wheels firmly secure the barrier panel in a vertical position. A manual actuator permits manual positioning of the barrier panel along the bed frame front to back.

Abstract: Cette invention a trait à un diffuseur à division radiale (3) possédant un tubage interne (13) et un tubage externe (14) réunis le long d'un joint cylindrique (15). Chaque passage du diffuseur est intersecté par le joint et s'étend transversalement en travers de celui-ci. Parmi les avantages de cette conception, figurent l'élimination de toute transition entre la partie initiale des passages où la vitesse des débits d'air est supersonique et où de faibles discontinuités superficielles peuvent influer notablement sur les bonnes caractéristiques de fonctionnement, la simplification de la production du fait de l'utilisation de pièces de fonte à la place de tôles métalliques lors de la fabrication des diffuseurs. Le joint (15) selon cette invention peut être situé en aval de l'entrée du diffuseur à une distance suffisante dans une zone de vitesse réduite. Ce joint est positionné de manière à offrir un accès aux fins d'un usinage précis de la partie initiale critique des passages dans le tubage interne ainsi qu'à réduire les perturbations du débit d'air dans la partie initiale.

Title: Procedes et dispositifs permettant de fixer des tissus conjonctifs a un os au moyen d'un dispositif d'ancrage a sutures sans noeud
Inventor: FOERSTER SETH A
IPC: A61B17/58
Filed: 2002-02-12
Granted: 2008-04-22
Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif de fixation d'un tissu conjonctif à un os, comportant un axe longitudinal et un élément articulé annulaire, ainsi qu'un élément-corps disposé de manière distale par rapport à l'élément articulé, de sorte à former un espace axial entre l'élément articulé et le corps. L'élément articulé peut être déplacé entre une position non déployée où l'élément articulé présente un profil plus petit dans un sens transversal par rapport à l'axe et une position déployée, où l'élément articulé présente un profil plus grand dans le sens transversal par rapport à l'axe. Une fois installé dans un site opératoire voulu, dans un os approprié, le matériau de suture s'étend de manière axiale à travers l'ouverture centrale de l'élément articulé annulaire, sans être fixé à l'élément articulé, ni être en contact avec ledit élément. Cette approche permet une fixation de suture s'étendant entièrement en-dessous de la surface corticale de l'os, et permet également la fixation de la suture sur l'ancrage osseux sans avoir besoin de faire un noeud, ce qui est particulièrement difficile et exige de bonnes compétences techniques dans le cas de procédés opératoires arthroscopiques. La fixation de la suture à l'ancrage osseux consiste à former une boucle avec un morceau de la suture autour d'un élément de retenue de suture situé à l'intérieur de l'ancrage osseux, à serrer la suture et le tissu mou fixé, puis à comprimer la suture contre l'ancrage osseux.
