Abstract: A rotary hammer, comprising an intermediate shaft (24) which is rotatingly driven by a motor of the hammer when power is supplied to the motor, a spindle (18) which can be driven in rotation about its axis by the intermediate shaft (24) via a drive means (62,64), a tool holder (16) arranged for rotation with the spindle for releasably holding a bit or tool such that the bit or tool can reciprocate and a pneumatic hammering arrangement (20,21,22) located within the spindle (18) which can repeatedly impact a bit or tool held within the tool holder. The pneumatic hammering arrangement comprises a piston (20) which can be reciprocatingly driven by a hammer drive arrangement (34,36,38,39,40,42) which can translate rotary drive from the intermediate shaft (24) to a reciprocating drive to the piston (20). A mode change arrangement is provided for changing the operation of the hammer between a rotary drive only mode, a hammer only mode and a rotary hammer mode, said mode change arrangement comprising a single actuator (8) switchable by a user of the hammer between the three modes. The mode change arrangement comprises a spindle driving sleeve (56) rotatable on the intermediate shaft which can rotatingly drive the spindle drive means (62,64), a hammer driving sleeve (34) rotatable on the intermediate shaft (24) for driving the hammer drive arrangement (34,36,38,39,40,42) and a mode change sleeve (52) which surrounds and is permanently driven by the intermediate shaft (24). The switching of the actuator (8) by a user shifts the mode change sleeve (52) along the intermediate shaft (24) between three positions, such that in a first rotary drive only position the mode change sleeve (52) transmits rotary drive to the spindle driving sleeve (56) to transmit rotary drive to the spindle drive means (62,64), in a second hammer only position the mode change sleeve (52) transmits rotary drive to the hammer driving sleeve (34) to transmit rotary drive to the hammer drive arrangement (34,36,38,39,40,42), and in a third rotary hammer position the mode change sleeve (52) transmits rotary drive to the spindle driving sleeve (56) and to the hammer driving sleeve (34) to transmit rotary drive to the spindle drive means (62,64) and to the hammer drive arrangement (34,36,38,39,40,42). <IMAGE>

Title: A tissue stapling attachment for use with an electromechanical driver device
Inventor: WHITMAN MICHAEL P
IPC: A61B17/00
Filed: 2001-02-21
Granted: 2006-06-28
Abstract: A stapler attachment for use with an electromechanical device driver comprises a staple holding member which is spring mounted to a staple closing member, which is, in turn, mounted to a threaded driver element concentrically mounted about a threaded shaft such that staple closing member and the staple holding member can be advanced and retracted along a track within a housing. A staple is advanced by the rotation of the threaded shaft until the staple holding member is stopped against an opening lip formed in an opening at the distal staple discharging end of the housing. At this position, the prongs of the staple have been advanced out of the distal staple discharging end and into the tissue to be joined. The staple closing member continues to advance as the spring between the staple holding member and the staple closing member compresses. This advancement permits the staple closing member to deform the staple into a closed D-shape conformation. The staple is released from the attachment through the distal staple discharging end of the housing upon further advancement of the staple closing member. Reverse rotation of the threaded shaft retracts the staple closing member and staple holding member into a staple receiving position where a spring-loaded staple dispenser pushes one of a plurality of staples in a staple cartridge into a staple carrying groove of a staple carrying element of the staple holding member, in preparation for a subsequent stapling procedure.

Abstract: A video encoding scheme employs progressive fine-granularity layered coding to encode video data frames into multiple layers, including a base layer of comparatively low quality video and multiple enhancement layers of increasingly higher quality video. Some of the enhancement layers in a current frame are predicted from at least one same or lower quality layer in a reference frame, whereby the lower quality layer is not necessarily the base layer. Use of multiple reference layers of different quality results in occasional fluctuations in the encoded image data. The video encoding scheme efficiently eliminates such fluctuations by predicting higher quality data from the lower quality data encoded in the base layer and a low quality enhancement layer. <IMAGE> <IMAGE>
