Patent EP-0282157-A1 (EP)
Inventor: AVANT ODIS LYNN
IPC: A61B17/115
Filed: 1988-02-02
Abstract: Apparatus for effecting anastomosis of the distal urethra (U) and the bladder (B) neck includes a tubular ureteral sound (12) with a threaded socket (13) on its distal end. An inflatable anvil (23) is connected to the threaded socket (13) on the ureteral sound (12) through an opening (130) in the urethra (U) adjacent the prostate (P) and the sound (12) is then retracted outwardly to position the inflatable anvil (23) in the urethra (U). A second implement (32) is passed downwardly through an incision (140) in the bladder (B) and is connectable to the inflatable anvil (23) by alignment (108, 110) and locking (96) means following surgical removal of the prostate (P). The inflatable anvil (23) and the second implement (32) respectively mount female (26) and male (28) connector members formed of material which will eventually dissolve in the human body. The male (28) and female (26) connector members are driven toward each other by the second implement (32) and male (28) means penetrates the tissue of the urethra (U) and the bladder (B) neck and then moves into the female (26) connector for engagement with locking means (68, 53) holding the two connector members (26, 28) together to clamp the urethra (U) to the bladder (B) neck to automatically provide an anastomosis. The second implement (32) for severing the tissue in a circular manner, radially inward from the male/female members (26, 28) to provide a clear internal opening (158, 160) for flow from the bladder (B) to the urethra (U). A catheter (30) is attached to the inflatable anvil (23) and upon removal of the second implement (32) is positioned in the bladder (B) which is then closed (151) by conventional surgical procedures. The anvil (23) is deflated and withdrawn outwardly through the urethra (U) to position the catheter (30) for bladder (B) drainage during healing of the anastomosis.

IPC: H01L23/485
Filed: 1988-06-14
Abstract: When making CMOS logic circuits, for example an inverter, it is frequently necessary to connect the sources of the p and n channel transistors to their respective tubs (n and p, respectively). The prior art required either a large contact window covering both source and tub regions, or else two standard size contact windows. The present technique forms the tub tie connection by the use of the same silicide layer (106,107,112,116) that is formed on the source/drain regions, which typically also forms a gate silicide (108,117) in the self-aligned silicide (i.e. "salicide") process. A conventional window may then be used to connect the silicide tub tie (and hence the source/tub regions) to a power supply conductor (114, 128). A space saving is obtained, and increased freedom for placing the power supply contact window is obtained.

IPC: C25D/
Filed: 1988-01-04
Abstract: The invention relates to a process and an apparatus for electrolytically depositing, in a moving mode, a continuous film of nickel on metal wire for electrical use. The process comprises using an activation bath and a nickel-plating bath in which the current density is reduced in the upstream portion of the nickel plating bath and/or the downstream portion of the activation bath and the acidity of the nickel-plating bath is so regulated as to develop the nickel in the form of strongly adhering globules of small diameter, which completely cover the wire. The reduction in the above mentioned current density and control in respect of the current density profile along the bath may be achieved by acting on the position of the electrodes in the bath and/or by interposing screens between the electrodes and the wire.

Abstract: The tool (1) is surrounded by a tactile feeler (4), preferably in the form of a concentric sleeve. The feeler can be deflected in the centre axis (5) of the tool (1) as well as at an angle to the centre axis. A spring-elastic member (6) ensures that the tactile feeler (4) remains in its concentric position or always returns into this concentric position after a deflection. A signal analogous to the deflection is formed via wire strain gauges (7) on the spring-elastic member. This signal serves to determine the actual tool zero point when touching a workpiece. <IMAGE>
