Abstract: Un instrument chirurgical comprend au moins deux tubes creux oblongs (14, 15) présentant des ouvertures (18) au niveau de la partie terminale distale. Le tube intérieur (14) est disposé à l'intérieur de l'autre tube (15) et il est monté pour tourner autour de son axe longitudinal. Un outil coupant (4) est placé à l'extrémité distale du tube (14), et il est positionné adjacent aux ouvertures (18). Un moteur (5) est prévu pour faire tourner le tube intérieur (14), et le tube intérieur (14) présente une lumière centrale (21) à travers laquelle le tissu coupé par l'outil coupant (4) est retiré sous l'effet d'une source d'aspiration (12). De la chaleur est appliquée au tissu, avant ou en même temps que celui-ci est coupé, de telle manière que le tissu coupé par l'outil coupant (4) est un tissu coagulé. Dans un mode de réalisation est prévu un troisième tube (16) et une solution saline est acheminée jusqu'aux ouvertures (18) par un canal (19) entre les tubes (15 et 16). L'autre tube (16) constitue une électrode active, et le tube intérieur (14) constitue l'électrode de retour d'un dispositif électrochirurgical. Un signal de radiofréquence, fourni au dispositif électrochirurgical, provoque la coagulation du tissu avant qu'il ne soit coupé par l'outil coupant (4) ce qui a pour effet de produire de plus petits morceaux de tissus coupés qui sont plus faciles à retirer par la lumière (21).

Abstract: The invention concerns an extruder for producing molted plastic materials from plastic granules available on the market, by heating and mixing granules, with heated single- or double-screw extruders, and for carrying out polycondensation or polymerization using part of a multiple-screw extruder and by means of vacuum chambers for removing the constituents of low molecular weight and/or foaming agents or the like, for obtaining larger molecules and hence a higher viscosity, and for increasing the mechanical strength of plastic materials produced from said molten material. The invention aims at designing said extruder such that the molten material can be processed in thin layers enabling exposure of large surfaces in contact with the vacuum, and hence a molten plastic material ensuring desired levels of degassing and polymerization using simple means. Therefor, the envelopes of the stems of the screws (7) are mutually spaced apart at least in the polycondensation zone of said extruder part with multiple screws (6), relative to the extruder screw (4) or its shaft section (10) and relative to cylindrical zones enclosing them, by a distance not less than zero (>=0).

Abstract: A filter device according to the present invention comprises: a filter portion having a fluid outlet at its axis, and a fluid inlet in a position away from the axis, in which a fluid containing particles is supplied at a predetermined flow speed from the fluid inlet to cause a swirl, particles are moved outward in a centrifugal state and the fluid from which the particles are separated is discharged from the fluid outlet, and the particles separated by slowing down the swirl are allowed to sink; and a settlement portion in which the particles that settle in the filter portion are allowed to settle. Thus, a fluid containing particles is supplied at a predetermined flow speed to cause a swirl, the particles are separated by a centrifugal force caused by the swirl and allowed to sink and settle, and the fluid from which the particles are separated is discharged. A large amount of particles can be allowed to settle and be reliably removed in a short time with this small-sized and simple device. The filter device does not clog, does not need wash and exchange work and keeps the costs low.
