Title: Joining element
Inventor: CHARRAS FLORENT
IPC: F16L37/098
Filed: 2003-10-23
Abstract: Disclosed is a joining element that is part of a fast connecting unit for hydraulic or pneumatic connecting conduits and comprises a tubular basic member ( 1 ), onto which two diametrically opposed, laterally spaced-apart two-legged snapping elements ( 5 ) are formed. Said snapping elements ( 5 ) are connected to the outer wall of the basic member ( 1 ) at the swaying point thereof while the free ends of the forward-facing legs thereof are provided with inward-directed hooks ( 11 ) which can grip from behind a catching element ( 12 ) (undercut) located on the outer wall of a counterpart ( 4 ) of the fast connecting unit when the connection is established. The rearward-facing legs of the snapping elements ( 5 ) are embodied as spring-type legs ( 13 ), the free ends of which are bent back in an inward direction such that a gap (a) remains between said ends and a respective opposite contact area. Said gap (a) limits the swaying movement of the spring-type legs ( 13 ) towards the basic member ( 1 ) to an extent that corresponds to the movement of expansion of the front legs of the snapping elements ( 5 ), which is required to disengage said hooks ( 11 ) from the catching element ( 12 ) of the counterpart ( 4 ), said front legs supporting the hooks ( 11 ). In addition, the restoring force of the snapping elements ( 5 ) is improved and the connection is secured against being accidentally released if the end of the spring-type legs ( 13 ) is bent so as to form a loop ( 14 ).

Title: Surgical stapling instrument having a spent cartridge lockout
Inventor: WEISENBURGH WILLIAM B
IPC: A61B17/072
Filed: 2004-05-19
Abstract: A surgical instrument for laparoscopic and endoscopic clinical procedures simultaneously severs and staples tissue clamped in an end effector comprising an elongate channel, which holds a staple cartridge, and a pivotally attached anvil. An E-beam firing bar engages the channel and selectively engages the anvil during distal firing movements, wherein the tissue is severed and stapled driven upward from the staple cartridge to form against the anvil. In particular, a wedge integral to the staple cartridge is driven distally by a middle pin of the firing bar to effect stapling. A lockout mechanism of the staple cartridge responds to the presence of the wedge sled in its unfired position to allow the firing bar to fire. Otherwise, the lockout mechanism prevents firing when the staple cartridge is spent. <IMAGE> <IMAGE>
