Abstract: A micromanipulator is proposed in which a structured plastics layer (1, 10) is applied to a substrate (9) and is firmly connected to the substrate (9) only in part (10). One part (1) is at a distance from the substrate; a metal strip is let into this part so that this part can be moved under the influence of temperature changes. In this micromanipulator, the movement of the unsupported part (1) is performed in parallel to the substrate. The part (10) firmly connected to the substrate (9) contains two light guides (5, 7) which are arranged parallel to the substrate. The angle situated between them is selected such that the position of the microstructure element can be detected by measuring the intensity of reflected light 12.

Abstract: A longitudinally watertight cable sleeve whose sleeve head consists of an outer body (2) whose internal cavity expands conically towards the side opposite the cable insertion side. An inner body (6) can be inserted into this cavity, the outer surface of which inner body 6 is matched to the conical inner surface of the outer body (2) in such a manner that a conical annular gap is formed between them in which the wires (7) of the cable (8), which are spread out like a basket, are taken up. This annular gap is filled with filling compound which is compressed into the outer body (2) by the insertion of the inner body (6). The volume which corresponds to the annular gap and is to be filled with filling material is extremely small so that the consumption of filling compound is very low. A ring (9) which is arranged on the inner body (6) and consists of sealing material seals the splicing space with respect to the annular gap and allows the wires (7) to be fixed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a combination of an aerosal can (11) and a cap (1) placed on said aerosol can, said cap being provided with a shell (3), which engages under a collar located near the upper side of the aerosol can by means of at least one locking lip located near the open bottom end of said shell. An operating arm (7) is coupled to the shell, by means of which a valve (16), forming part of the aerosol can, can be actuated so as to discharge the contents of the aerosol can. At the inner side of the shell a wing (19) is secured to a part of the shell (3) which can be pressed inwards with respects to the other part of the shell, said wing at its side remote from the shell abutting against a part of the aerosol can and in the unloaded condition of the part of the shell carrying the wing co-operating with the operating arm so as to prevent the operating arm from moving so as to open the valve. The construction is such that when the part of the shell carrying the wing is depressed the end of the wing abutting against a part of the aerosol can will be pivoted, while moving along this part of the aerosol can, about a pivot axis extending at least substantially parallel to the central axis (2) of the aerosol can, into a position in which the wing allows a pivoting motion of the operating arm. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and system for enhancing efficiency of data accessing within a storage subsystem, preferably including a DASD with multiple disks, which is coupled to a host system via a storage subsystem controller. Recording tracks are accessed utilizing multiple switchable transducer heads. A signal transmitted from the host system is utilized to define a transducer head switching table within the storage subsystem controller listing each track to be accessed and an associated control parameter for selecting a particular transducer head to be utilized to access a subsequent track. Each time the end of an accessed track is encountered, this table is accessed and the control parameter associated with that track is accessed and coupled to the DASD in order to select a subsequent track for access. A pointer is established into this table at the listing of an initially accessed track and access may be terminated when that pointer is encountered. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A cardioversion/defibrillation electrode comprising an insulative element which supports one or more planar conductive elements. The conductive elements are spaced apart from each other by a "conductor-free" region, which serves as a spring loaded hinge about which the electrode may preferentially bend. The electrode is thereby spring loaded to adopt a substantially planar orientation in a relaxed state but is capable of bending to a non planar orientation wherein the electrode is folded about the hinge to facilitate intrathoracic introduction. After introduction, the spring loaded hinge causes the electrode to adopt its relaxed substantially planar orientation for attachment on or near the heart surface. Due to the preferential bending in the "conductor-free" region, the electrode conductive elements are not permanently or substantially deform during implantation. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Abstract: An adjustable gastric banding device (10) for regulating the size of a stoma opening in the stomach of a patient includes an elongate band (12) having a portion (12a) that encircles the stomach so as to limit the food intake by the digestive portion of the stomach. The device can be readily implanted and removed using laparoscopic procedures. A locking element (20) protruding from a location near the distal end of the encircling band portion (12a) is inserted into a slot (22) formed in a receiving segment (126) at an intermediate location along the encircling band portion (12a) so as to form a circle or loop of fixed diameter. The receiving segment (12b) has a thickness which is greater than the thickness of the encircling band portion (12a) and of the rear portion (12c) of the band. A movable bolt (30) secures the locking element (20) in the slot (22). The bolt (30) can be displaced remotely, thus releasing the locking element (20) and allowing easy laparoscopic removal of the banding device (10). The entire circumference of the stomach encircling band portion (12a) is covered by an expandable section (24) in contact with the surface of the stomach. The size of the stoma opening can be adjusted by injecting into or removing fluid from the expandable section (24). <IMAGE>
