Patent NZ-505990-A (NZ)
Title: A slip-fit handle for hand-held instruments that access interior body regions
IPC: A61B17/16
Filed: 1999-01-21
Abstract: A surgical system has a handle 18 releasably attachable to a surgical instrument 12,14,16. The handle 18 permits a physician to fit the selected instrument to the handle tactilely, without need of visual confirmation, as the first instrument e.g. 14 has a fitting 40 geometry that is only complemented by the first handle attachment site 80 and so on. At the same time, the handle makes possible the reliable transmission, with increased mechanical advantage, of both torsional and longitudinal loads by the physician to the selected instrument. The handle also permits quick detachment of the selected instrument from the handle, without sticking or inordinate force

Title: Method for removal of biofilm
Inventor: LUDENSKY MICHAEL
IPC: C02F1/76
Filed: 2003-06-06
Abstract: Disclosed is a method for the removal of biofilm, flocculent bulked sludge or bulked biologically active sludge from an aquatic system.
