Title: Instrument d'agrafage chirurgical comprenant un mecanisme de declenchement multicoups muni d'un systeme de retraction a manivelle et a ressort de rappel
Inventor: SHELTON FREDERICK E IV
IPC: A61B17/00
Filed: 2006-02-03
Granted: 2014-04-08
Abstract: Un instrument chirurgical à agrafer et à sectionner, particulièrement adapté à des procédures endoscopiques, comporte une poignée qui produit des mouvements de fermeture et de déclenchement distincts pour actionner un effecteur d'extrémité. En particulier, la poignée produit de multiples coups de déclenchement afin de diminuer la quantité de force requise pour déclencher (c.-à-d., agrafer et sectionner) l'effecteur d'extrémité. Une transmission asservie réduit la longueur longitudinale requise pour la poignée, tout en produisant une configuration rigide et résistante lorsqu'elle est redressée pour le déclenchement. Un mécanisme de déclenchement sollicité par traction évite tout grippage en commandant cette crémaillère asservie de concert avec un mécanisme antirecul, avec un mécanisme de verrouillage qui empêche le relâchement de la gâchette de fermeture lors du déclenchement. De plus, un indicateur extérieur transmet une rétroaction au chirurgien sur la progression des déclenchements, tout en assurant une capacité de rétraction manuelle.

Filed: 2007-04-19
Granted: 2012-11-20
Abstract: A showerhead has at least a first set of nozzles and a second set of nozzles for discharging water. The showerhead discharges water according to one of multiple water delivery functions, where a first water delivery function corresponds to water being discharged through only the first set of nozzles, a second water delivery function corresponds to water being discharged through only the second set of nozzles and a third water delivery function corresponds to water being discharged through the first and second sets of nozzles simultaneously. The spacing between the first set of nozzles and the second set of nozzles is carefully selected so that the third water delivery function corresponds to the integrated nozzles of the first and second sets of nozzles. As a result, the third water delivery function provides a coherent and balanced water flow resulting in a more pleasant feel.

Granted: 2016-11-01
Abstract: Submerged media useful with or without aeration and/or mixing to enhance an aquatic environment by promoting and retaining biogrowth. The media takes the form of a cluster of individual flexible elements having free ends. The media are submerged in a liquid such as a water or wastewater treatment basin or an aquaculture environment. The media are characterized by the ability to promote and retain microbial growth. The media clusters have substantial flow through thicknesses to provide a three dimensional effect along with baffling for increased contact with the liquid being treated. The media may be thin strips constructed to avoid sticking together to allow maximum exposed surface area. The media clusters can create oxic, anoxic and anaerobic environments for maximum treatment during flow through the media cluster. The flexibility of the media elements and their free ends automatically dislodges excessive biomass buildup to avoid clogging of the media.
