Patent EP-0862377-A1 (EP)
Inventor: FARIN GUENTER
IPC: A61B1/12
Filed: 1996-11-08
Abstract: In endoscopy the field of inspection or operation frequently has to be rinsed. This may be carried out by alternate rinsing with a fluid and a gas which are expelled through a line. The disadvantage of the known method is that relatively large quantities of fluid may be required and the fluid can only be expelled using limited pressure thereby reducing cleaning capacity. The invention proposes to fill a proximal section of the line with a fluid quantity defining a fluid stopper (13) and to accelerate said stopper using the gas (16) fed into the line downstream of the fluid quantity, and to expel it from the line opening at a high final or discharging speed. The cleaning capacity can therefore be increased for reduced quantities of fluid.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to an implant as bone prosthesis with an open-mesh three-dimensional structure at least partially covering its surface. Said structure is formed from particles which are joined to a base structure (1) of the implant and consist in each case of four to eight studs (3) which diverge radially from one another, at least three of these studs being joined to the base structure. It is proposed that the ends (7) of the studs (3) which diverge freely away from the base structure (1) should form undercuts (8) and have an outwardly rounded surface.

Abstract: A modular rack for packaging and processing a quantity of elongate objects, such as a quantity of syringe barrels, is disclosed. The racks preferably include two or more vertical supports, each of which is attached to a relatively flat base for supporting in the rack on a work surface. A plurality of resilient barrel clips designed to releasably retain individual syringe barrels are secured between the vertical supports. Structure for supporting flanges associated with individual syringe barrels is provided at an upper extremity of the vertical supports. In one configuration, the structure for supporting the flanges includes a pair of plates spaced apart from one another to define a pocket for receiving the syringe flanges. Cut-outs are formed in each of the plates, both to accommodate entry of the syringe barrel adjacent the flange as well as to provide access to the open proximal end of the syringe barrel for processing purposes. Various structures are provided to releasably secure together one or more of the syringe racks so as to form a block configuration of syringe racks for packaging and handling purposes. Alternately, if desired, the individual racks may be releasably detached from the block configuration so as to sequentially handle the individual syringes contained in each rack. The open architecture of the rack permits ready visual inspection of the syringes held by the rack.

Abstract: A bending order which provides a highest possible bending accuracy is determined. 
     First, a bending order generating section generates a plurality of bending orders possible for bending operation. Then, whether the bend angle of each bend can be measured in each generated bending order is checked by a measurement judging section. For each bend which has been determined as an objective bend "impossible to measure", a reference bend whose correction value for a die driving amount is to be used for calculating a correction value for the objective bend is set by a correction condition setting section. Weighting is carried out by a weight setting section based on the degree of the correlation between the processing factors of the objective bend and the processing factors of its associated reference bend, and the weights assigned to all the objective bends are summed by a weight sum computing section. Thereafter, a bending order selecting section evaluates the respective weight sums of the bending orders to select a suitable bending order and outputs the evaluation result to an NC device.
