Title: Apparatus for fixing sheet-like materials to a target tissue
Inventor: EUTENEUER CHARLES L
IPC: A61B17/04
Filed: 2010-06-04
Granted: 2015-07-09
Abstract: A staple for attaching a sheet-like implant to tissue or bone may include first and second arms, and first and second flukes. In some embodiments, the first arm has a proximal end and a distal end, and the second arm has a proximal end and a distal end. A bridge extends from the proximal end of the first arm to the proximal end of the second arm. The first fluke has a proximal end abutting the distal end of the first arm, and the first fluke extends distally from the first arm. The first fluke has a lateral extent larger than a lateral extent of the first arm and is mounted eccentrically thereto. The first fluke includes a proximal surface projecting at an outward angle in a proximal direction away from the distal end of the first arm to engage the tissue or bone when inserted therein. The second fluke has similar features. This arrangement causes the first and second flukes to rotate in response to a pullout force on the bridge. Methods for attaching a sheet-like implant to a target tissue are also disclosed.

Title: Modalmetric fibre sensor
Inventor: VISAGATHILAGAR YUVARAJA
IPC: G01H9/00
Filed: 2010-10-13
Granted: 2015-08-27
Abstract: A modalmetric fibre sensor comprises a multimode sensor fibre (26) and a light source (14) for launching light into the sensor fibre to produce a multimode speckle pattern at an end of the sensor fibre. A single mode fibre (22) receives light from the multimode speckle pattern for transmission to a detector (18). A further multimode fibre (41) is disposed between the sensor fibre (26) and the single mode fibre (22) so that the single mode fibre (22) receives light from the speckle pattern by transmission through the further multimode fibre (41) and the received light includes higher order modes regenerated in the further multimode fibre (41). The light source may be connected to the single mode fibre (22) so as to launch light through the single mode fibre into the multimode sensor fibre (26) via the further multimode fibre (41) and the remote end (28) of the sensor fibre (26) may be mirrored to reflect light back through the sensor fibre to produce the speckle pattern.

Title: Push-button dispenser with compressed-gas capsule for beverage bottles
Inventor: SAMUEL NYAMBI O
IPC: B67D1/04
Filed: 2011-04-26
Granted: 2015-08-20
Abstract: The push‑button dispenser with compressed‑gas capsule (7) for bottles (2) consists of a head which can be screwed onto the bottle (2) and have a lateral pouring channel (4), a push‑button (15) on its upper side and downwardly projecting suction tube (11). The latter is intended to extend as far as the base of the bottle (2) which is to be fitted with the dispenser, and it opens out at the top into a valve device in the head. This valve device has a regulating means (39) which can be moved axially in relation to the bottle (2) and is biased in the closing direction by a spring (17), and can be opened by manual pressure being applied to the push‑button (15) from above. This reduces pressure in the interior of the suction tube (11) to ambient pressure, as a result of which liquid is expelled from the bottle (2), by way of the internal pressure prevailing in the bottle (2), out of the lower mouth opening of the suction tube (11) via the pouring channel (4). As a special feature, the dispenser is configured as a single‑piece housing (14) with inner housing (37), which contains all the other elements of the dispenser, or bears the same externally, wherein the housing (14) forms, at the side, an open accommodating cylinder (8), with a steel piercing tube (23) installed concentrically therein so as to be directed outwards, for the purpose of accommodating a compressed‑gas capsule (7). A compressed‑gas capsule (7) can be pushed into this accommodating cylinder from beneath until its lead‑sealed piercing closure reaches the tip of the piercing tube (23), and it is retained in this position by static friction. The action of an associated threaded cap (6) being screwed on then causes this compressed‑gas capsule (7) to be pushed further into the accommodating cylinder (8) in the axial direction, in which case the piercing tube (23), which is cut obliquely at the front, pierces, with sealing action, the lead‑sealed piercing closure of the compressed‑gas capsule.

Title: Geodetic surveying device having automatic high-precision target point sighting functionality
Inventor: KOTZUR NORBERT
IPC: G01C15/00
Filed: 2011-07-07
Granted: 2013-08-01
Abstract: The invention relates to a geodatic surveying device which is equipped with an automatic target point sighting functionality for determining the position of a target point. The target point is indicated with high spatial precision by a known reticle. The geodatic surveying device is fitted with a sighting apparatus which can be pivoted in a motorized manner relative to a base of the surveying device in order to change the orientation of the apparatus. The sighting apparatus is at least equipped with an objective unit (3) defining an optical target axis OA and with a camera sensor (4) for capturing a camera image of the sighted reticle. The geodatic surveying device is further equipped with an angle measuring functionality for capturing the orientation of the target axis OA and with evaluation means (50) for image processing, data storage and control of the orientation of the sighting apparatus. According to the invention, a reticle pattern that corresponds to the outer shape of the known reticle is stored, wherein a main point of the reticle pattern is predefined as indicating the target point. In order to carry out an automatic target point sighting functionality, the evaluation means are designed such that, after the function start, a camera image of the reticle is automatically recorded, the reticle pattern is aligned with the reticle in the camera image by means of image processing and, depending on a position of the main point in the camera image in the matched state of the reticle pattern, the orientation of the sighting apparatus is changed in a motorized manner such that the optical target axis OA is oriented with high precision at the target point.

Title: Auto-production frac tool
Inventor: KORKMAZ LALE
IPC: E21B33/068
Filed: 2011-06-17
Granted: 2014-08-21
Abstract: Fracturing tools for use in oil and gas wells comprise an inner sleeve, an outer sleeve, a run-in position, and two operational positions. The inner sleeve comprises two ports and two positions. The first port is aligned with a first port of the housing when the tool and sleeve are in the first operational position and is closed when the tool and sleeve are in the run-in position. After performing the first operation, the inner sleeve is returned to its initial position and the outer sleeve is moved placing the tool in the second operational position in which the second port in the inner sleeve is in fluid communication with a second port in the housing. Movement of the tool from the first operational position to the second operational position so that a second operation can be performed is done without the need for an additional well intervention step.
