Patent EP-0441668-A1 (EP)
Inventor: CHOPIN DANIEL
IPC: A61B17/58
Filed: 1991-01-16
Abstract: This block comprises: 
 
  - an eyelet (36) for receiving a first screw (38) and having a cylindrical hole (37) with an axis (X5) of inclination such that when the block (29) is placed on the sacrum the screw (38) is inserted in the sacral plateau and towards the upper axis thereof, 
  - a U-shaped body (32) delimiting a channel (34) for receiving a rod, and a plug (7) for locking the rod (8) in this body, 
  - a hole (33) for the passage of a second screw (42) whose axis (Y5) is divergent with respect to the axis (X5) of the hole of the eyelet, in such a way as to be oriented towards the iliac mass when the block is placed on the sacrum. This block and its two screws (38, 42) ensure a secure anchoring of the rod of the device on the sacrum, by virtue of the penetration of the screws into solid regions of said sacrum. This avoids practically any risk of loosening and, as a result of this, avoids a second surgical intervention.

Abstract: A novel dropoff apparatus adapted for use in a perforating gun or other such apparatus adapted to be disposed in a borehole includes an embrittled carrier section connected to a further section of the perforating gun or other such apparatus. The embrittled carrier section includes an embrittled carrier and a explosive charge, such as a capsule charge, mounted on the embrittled carrier. When the charge detonates, since the carrier section is embrittled, the carrier section is severed from further section falls to a bottom of the borehole. The carrier section may undergo geometrical embrittlement by disposing a notch through at least one side of the carrier section; when the charge detonates, the carrier section is severed from the further section of the gun, or other apparatus, along a line connected to the notch, the further section of the gun, or other apparatus, falling to a bottom of the borehole.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a valve assembly (10) which is mounted on a part (piston unit 40) of an air motor (10) arranged for reciprocating movement in a housing (cylinder 12). The valve assembly includes a first valve unit (50), which is mounted on one side of the part (40), and a second valve unit (70), which is mounted on the other side of the part (40). The second valve unit is connected to the first valve unit (50) by means of the part (40) for common movement with the first valve unit relative to the part (40) when the valve assembly is switched as the part (40) reaches one of its two end turning-positions. In order to enable the valve assembly to be switched instantaneously and to eliminate the risk that switching the assembly will not take place, particularly when the motor is operated at a low speed, it is proposed in accordance with the invention, among other things, that each of the valve units (50 and 70 respectively) is produced from an elastomeric material and is provided with integrally formed spring elements (52 and 72 respectively) which will strike against solid abutments (18, 22) in the housing (12) upon mechanical switching of the valve assembly.

Abstract: The detector (PIRM) has a receiving optical system (EO), an infrared sensor (IRS) and a detector electronic system with a microcontroller, and receives signals emitted by at least one infrared transmitter arranged in the monitoring region (ÜE) of the movement detector (PIRM). The infrared transmitter is constructed as a free-wheeling, independent infrared opto-transmitter (SEN) and has a coding device (COD). The transmitter (SEN) continuously transmits the coded signals (KS). Arranged additionally in the movement detector (PIRM) is an infrared opto-receiver (EMP) which receives these coded signals (KS). In this case, the receiver (EMP) forms together with the transmitter (SEN) a light barrier (LS) which causes an alarm signal in the event of interruption. The received coded signals (KS) are either fed to the microcontroller, being in this case evaluated and processed in the movement detector (PIRM), or are fed to a transmission device, being in this case transmitted directly to the report centre of the hazard detection system. The transmitter (SEN) is constructed to be independent of the mains and provided with a longlife battery. The transmitter can be assigned at least one monitoring contact or protection element (ÜK1, ÜK2, ...), the transmitter (SEN) interrogating the respective circuit state by means of an interrogation device (AB), and transmitting it appropriately coded to the movement detector (PIRM). <IMAGE>

Abstract: An improved device and method of separating the cellular components of whole blood from plasma or serum and assaying the plasma or serum for a predetermined soluble constituent are disclosed. The device includes a filter pad, that separates the cellular components of whole blood from the serum or plasma, and a test pad, that assays the serum or plasma for a predetermined soluble constituent. The filter pad effectively separates and retains cellular components of the whole blood sample, thereby eliminating assay interference by the cellular components of whole blood. The method includes contacting the whole blood with a test device including a filter pad comprising a suitable carrier matrix homogeneously incorporating therein a separating reagent composition comprising a) separating reagent, like an agglutinin, such as a blood type nonspecific lectin; a coagulant, such as a thrombin or a thrombin-like compound; or a mixture thereof, and b) a nonhemolytic surfactant, like an ethoxylated or propoxylated nonionic or anionic surfactant, such that the cellular components of the whole blood are separated from the plasma or serum as the blood permeates through the filter pad, The essentially cell-free plasma or serum then saturates a test pad that is in contact with the filter pad. After the plasma or serum saturates the test pad, the test pad is examined for a qualitative or quantitative response to a predetermined soluble constituent of the whole blood.

Abstract: An improved system and method are provided for normally interconnecting a stationary flow line and a flexible flow line, and for automatically separating the flow lines in response to movement of the flexible flow line in excess of a preselected limit. A connection (10) comprises a socket housing (18) sealed to one flow line and a ball housing (16) sealed to another flow line. The housings (16,18) are separated automatically when a lateral force is transmitted through the flexible flow line (2) to cause excess pivoting movement of one housing related to the other housing. The connection (10) of the present invention is particularly useful for preventing rupture of a flow line during an intermittent pullaway of a portable vessel with respect to a stationary holding tank. In one embodiment, the connection includes at least three ball swivel surfaces (48) for mating engagement with a socket swivel surface (44). Valve members (24,26) in each of the housings (16,18) are held out of engagement with respective seating surfaces when the housings (16,18) are mated, and automatically close to prevent fluid loss when the housings (16,18) separate. A seal (80) is provided for maintaining sealed engagement between the ball housing (16) and socket housing (18) when the ball housing (16) normally pivots within a preselected arc limit with respect to the socket housing (18). The elastomeric (80) seal preferably engages a seating surface forming a portion of an imaginary sphere having a center (46) coincident with a sphere which defines the ball swivel surface and socket swivel surface (44,50).
