Abstract: A releasable medical device connector (10) comprises a connector fitting with a spin nut which connects to an adaptor. The connector fitting has at least one radially extending member (34) with a variable radius cross section. The spin nut (50) is disposed upon the connector fitting proximal of the radially extending member and is both axially slidable and rotatable upon the elongated body (20) of the connector fitting. A screw thread within a proximal portion of the spin nut is used to secure the tapering portion of the connector fitting to an external thread disposed upon the adaptor. To release the connector, the spin nut is unscrewed from the adaptor and slid so that a distal receptacle of the spin nut engages the radially extending member of the connector fitting.

Abstract: An active-constraint robot ( 4 ), particularly for surgical use, is controlled by means of a series of motorized joints to provide a surgeon with real-time tactile feedback of an operation in progress. The robot system holds, in memory, a series of constraint surfaces beyond which it would be dangerous for the surgeon to go, and a resistive force is applied to the cutting tool ( 14 ) as the surgeon approaches any such surface. To improve the overall quality of feedback experienced by the surgeon, the resistive force applied to the cutting tool ( 14 ) depends upon the point of intersection (I) between the force factor applied by the surgeon and the surface. Further improvements are achieved by adjusting the tangential resistive force, when the tool is adjacent to the surface, in dependence upon the surrounding shape of the surface.

Abstract: A reinforced flexible pipeline ( 1 ), which has an inner liner ( 3 ) whose inner side engages an inner reinforcement layer ( 2 ) that may be formed by a so-called carcass, and on whose outer side at least a strength-imparting reinforcement layer ( 4, 5, 6, 7 ) is provided, has an additional barrier layer ( 9, 10, 11 ) which is arranged between the inner liner and the inner reinforcement layer. The additional barrier layer is thermally insulating and/or chemically protecting. The additional barrier layer may be formed as a tape ( 9 ) which is wound around the inner reinforcement layer, or may be composed of locking profiles ( 10, 11 ) which are wound around the flexible pipeline in a helix. The additional barrier layer ( 9, 10, 11 ) may be made completely or partly of a polymer which may be thermoplastic, or is cross-linked completely or partly. Hereby, the pipe may be protected against temperatures above e.g. 13° C. and may also be protected against attacks from methanol that contains water. By constructing the additional barrier layer of profiles it is additionally ensured that it can transfer great compressive forces to the inner reinforcement layer, without any risk of the liner being caused to float since it is supported evenly by the additional barrier layer.

Abstract: The combination of narrowband applications with broadband transport may be enabled with an intermediate signaling protocol that supports narrowband inter-domain bearer independent call control (BICC) signaling over a broadband network. For each setup request carried by the BICC signaling protocol, a seize device message is forwarded from a narrowband call control node to an intermediate entity responsible for converting the seize device message into a broadband endpoint request message. The interworking entity obtains broadband endpoint information from a selected broadband endpoint and creates a dynamic device representing the selected broadband endpoint. The dynamic device is used in the establishment of inter-domain switch connections.
