Title: Endoscopic stapling devices and methods
Inventor: SMITH ANDREW
IPC: A61B17/115
Filed: 2009-03-18
Granted: 2014-07-17
Abstract: Described herein is a stapling device and method used to apply one or more fasteners to body tissue. In one embodiment, a fastener-applying device, which is preferably a stapler, is passed transorally into the stomach and used to plicate stomach tissue by engaging tissue from inside of the stomach and drawing it inwardly. In the disclosed embodiments, the tissue is drawn inwardly into a vacuum chamber, causing sections of serosal tissue on the exterior of the stomach to be positioned facing one another. The disclosed staplers allow the opposed sections of tissue to be moved into contact with one another, and preferably deliver staples for maintaining contact between the tissue sections at least until serosal bonds form between them. Each of these steps may be performed wholly from the inside of the stomach and thus can eliminate the need for any surgical or laparoscopic intervention, After one or more plications are formed, medical devices may optionally be coupled to the plication(s) for retention within the stomach.

Title: Apparatus and method for assisting vertical takeoff vehicles
Inventor: LONGSTAFF IAN DENNIS
IPC: B64C29/00
Filed: 2010-01-28
Granted: 2015-10-29
Abstract: According to one aspect of the present invention there is proposed a radar altimeter which utilises a downward looking MIMO phased array to form multiple beams, covering a relatively wide sector, +/- 60 degrees or thereabouts. The distance to the ground is then measured in each beam allowing the ground profile to be formed. The beams may be tilted forward to cover from +90 degrees forward (horizontal) to 30 degrees behind nadir. The provision of such a forward tilt gives a greater degree of coverage in the direction of approach vector to the ground. This additional cover enables the altimeter to more accurately detect other vehicles in the proximity to the current approach vector of the vehicle to the desired landing zone. 0 z mm aN (NN x r4J --------- C%4 "0L
