Abstract: A releasably-securable gastric band having a tail end and a head end for receiving the tail end is disclosed. The gastric band also includes a releasable locking means that releasably secures the head and tail ends together. The tail end may include a tooth and the head end may include a notch for engaging the tooth. Upon insertion of the tail end finto the head end, the tooth mates with the notch and releasably locks the tail end in the head end. The releasably-securable gastric band also includes a release tab. When force is applied to the release tab in a direction perpendicular to a central axis of the gastric band, the tooth is disengaged from the notch to allow the gastric band to be released.

Abstract: An injection device (110) is described having a housing (112) that receives a syringe (114) having a needle (118), wherein the syringe is supported in a syringe carrier (150). The syringe and syringe carrier are biased by a return spring (126) from an extended position in which the needle (118) extends from the housing (112) through an exit aperture (128) to a retracted position in which it does not. A drive spring (130) acts via a drive to advance the syringe from its retracted position to its extended position and discharge its contents through the needle and a return spring, brought into play when the drive has reached a nominal return position, restores the syringe to its retracted position.

Granted: 1982-04-21
Abstract: A piezoelectric strain/force transducer is described, which is attached preferably by only one locking screw to a test specimen or machine part. The force transmitting member of the transducer comprises two bearing surfaces at a distance apart, which bear frictionally on the surface of the machine part and experience a change in spacing in the case of a change in length of the machine part. Due to this, a resilient member, which can be adapted to a desired sensitivity of the gauge, is tensioned and a set of piezoelectric plates held under precompression in the force-transmitting member are subjected to a corresponding shearing force. The piezoelectric plates are cut or polarized so that they respond piezoelectrically solely to shearing forces. The resulting piezoelectric charge is a measurement of the strain or mechanical stress of the machine part and can be used for monitoring or controlling machines or components, in particular those which are subjected to cyclic loads.

Filed: 1980-06-24
Granted: 1984-09-12
Abstract: A filter apparatus comprising filter elements and reverse-flow cleaning means for the gas filter elements. The gas filter elements can be filter bags, filter pouches or filter cells. The reverse-flow means comprises a two-stage injector for drawing-in clean gas in two stages associated with each filter element by pulses of scavenging gas which are injected into the filter element in the direction opposite that of the filter flow. In order that large quantities of scavenging air for the cleaning of the filter elements can be produced in a small space, the first stage is formed as a Coanda annular slot injector and the second stage is formed as an inlet nozzle. The highest possible kinetic energy in the outlet jet of the first stage is obtained by forming the injector tube of this stage as a cylindrical outlet tube.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process and device for backfilling of a roadway structure of mine and tunnel construction utilizing support hoses filled with a hardening filler. The hoses, when empty, are supported by the roadway support, after being put in place on the support are filled and thereby stretched out to form an inflated profile which locks onto the support section. The process and device used has the advantages of not being limited to certain specific support structure spacings and may be applied to a variety of roadway sections. The support section has the general shape of an I-beam and when used in multi-part roadway structures the section junctions are protected against overloads even when they are designed with limited yieldability. The support hose is laid on and supported over part of its length directly by the outer face of an "I" beam support section flange facing the rock. Where the flange supports the hose, the support section flange wholly or partly indents the cross-section contour of the inflated profile when the support hose is stretched out as it is filled with the hardener compound.

Abstract: A holding furnace for molten metal comprises an inner vessel (32) formed of flat, rigid, heat-resistant panels (37, 40, 41). The panels are held in sealing engagement with one another at abutting edge surfaces (42A, 42B, 43) by the action of inwardly directed pressure applied to the panels by an integrally cast refractory outer vessel (34) through the intermediary of a resilient layer (33) of heat-resistant fibrous material. The pressure is applied as a result of the shrinking the casting compound undergoes during the setting. When the inner vessel (32) is being made, the panels (37, 40, 41), to which the resilient layer (33) has initially been applied, are held together by the action of a reduced pressure in the inner vessel (32) as the latter is positioned in a furnace casing (36) interiorly lined with a mineral wool insulation (35). The inner vessel (32) then is cast around with a refractory casting compound for forming the outer vessel (34).
