Title: Surgical instrument
Inventor: DION ERNEST A
IPC: A61M1/00
Filed: 1997-12-17
Granted: 2000-08-03
Abstract: A surgical instrument comprises an inner tube which rotates within an outer tube and carries a surgical tool that includes a burr for cutting tissue exposed to the burr through an opening in the outer tube. The instrument includes several features which enhance the efficiency at which tissue fragments severed by the burr are aspirated through the inner tube, and which enable the burr to effectively cut relatively soft tissue as well as harder tissue such as bone. For example, the burr includes a proximal shank having a wall that has an aperture therein with a substantial width relative to an outer diameter of the wall for conveying tissue fragments cut by the burr into an interior chamber of the shank, and thence into a passage in the inner tube. The opening in the outer tube is axially elongated sufficiently to expose a major portion of the aperture. The large aperture and its exposure by the outer tube opening reduce the risk of clogging by admitting larger tissue fragments into the inner tube for aspiration. Additionally, the burr includes a plurality of grooves that are axially elongated and inclined transversely to the flutes, and the grooves define a plurality of axially spaced notches in each of the cutting edges. The notches divide the cutting edges into relatively small segments that produce correspondingly small tissue fragments (even when the burr is used to cut soft tissue) to further reduce the risk of clogging. In addition, the cutting edges are preferably provided with a positive rake that makes the cutting edges sharper and suitable for effectively cutting, rather than tearing or shredding, relatively soft tissue.

Title: Dielectric recording medium
Inventor: WILKINSON RICHARD L
IPC: B41M5/24
Filed: 1980-02-15
Granted: 1984-05-31
Abstract: A multi-layer information recording medium for storing large amounts of information in a prescribed pattern of microscopic pits, formed by focusing onto the medium a beam of radiation having a prescribed wavelength and having an intensity modulated by the information to be recorded. The record medium includes a substrate having a light-reflective surface on its upper side, a light-absorptive dielectric layer overlaying the substrate and having a thickness approximately equal to an odd integral multiple of one fourth the wavelength of the beam of radiation in the dielectric material, and a thin metallic layer overlaying the dielectric layer and having a light-reflective surface on its lower side. During recording of the information, a substantial proportion of the intensity-modulated beam of radiation is transmitted through the metallic layer to the dielectric layer where it is confined, due to multiple internal reflections by the light-reflective surfaces of the substrate and the metallic layer, until it is finally absorbed by the dielectric material. This causes an evaporation of the dielectric material whenever the intensity of the beam exceeds a predetermined threshold, such evaporation carrying away the overlaying portions of the metallic layer and creating the prescribed pattern of microscopic information-bearing pits.

Granted: 1998-08-20
Abstract: Aqueous dispersion adhesives of anionic polyurethanes which have high heat resistance and low activation temperature, even when employed without addition of a cross-linker. The polyurethane is the reaction product of an isocyanate terminated polyurethane prepolymer, and water. The polyurethane prepolymer is the reaction product of a polyol component and a diisocyanate component, the polyolcomponent including: a sulfonated polyester polyol, a hydroxy carboxylic acid of the formula: (HO)xR (COOH)y wherein (R) represents a straight or branched, hydrocarbon radical containing 1 to 12 carbon atoms, and x and y represent values from 1 to 3, and optionally, a low molecular weight aliphatic diol having a molecular weight of from 60 to 400, a non-sulfonated polyol, and the diisocyanate component being selected from the group consisting of aromatic diisocyanates, isopherone diisocyanate, hexamethylene diisocyanate and mixtures thereof. The dispersions are prepared by mixing prepolymer and water at a temperature of at least 60  DEG C for sufficient time to fully react the isocyanate groups in a prepolymer self-extension reaction with water, typically at least 0.5 hour. The dispersions of the invention provide higher strength adhesive bonds than identical prepolymer dispersions extended with diamine chain extender, instead of water, after dispersion. The adhesive composition may also be modified to include a dispersed polymer or copolymer of an ethylenically unsaturated monomer. Such compositions may be obtained by preparing the sulfonated polyurethane in the presence of an ethylenically unsaturated monomer and subsequently subjecting the mixture to free-radical polymerization.
