Patent EP-0955864-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SAK ROBERT F
IPC: A61B5/15
Filed: 1996-03-29
Abstract: This invention is a phlebotomy system (10) including a needle assembly (12), a retraction assembly (16), and a cylindrical barrel (14). The needle assembly (12) includes a needle cannula (30) with a first and second ends, a needle sleeve (24) for supporting the needle cannula (30) and having a flared proximal end, and a hub (18) into which the needle sleeve (24) is inserted. The cylindrical barrel (14) is threadedly secured to the hub (18). The retraction assembly (16) includes a central plate (48) with a central opening through which the needle sleeve (24) extends. When a downward force is applied to the retraction assembly (16), the retraction assembly (16) is moved to an active position such that a locking port (64) is axially aligned with and thereby engages the needle sleeve. Hence, the locking port engages the flared proximal end of the needle sleeve (24) when the retraction (16) assembly is moved rearward and the needle cannula (30) is retracted into the barrel (14). In an alternative embodiment, the needle sleeve is threadedly engaged with the central opening of the retraction assembly and likewise results in retraction of the needle cannula into the barrel.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method and device for the control of an object, for example a vehicle window or sliding roof, moved by a motor drive, and is particularly suitable for use for collision-protection purposes. The invention uses surfaces waves in the zone which is monitored, thus making it possible to mount the transmitter and receiver more simply on the object to be moved. The invention is characterized in that at least one wave-mode converter (3, 4, 34, 34', 34", 34"', 34"") is mounted in such a position that it can monitor the zone (5, 5') to be monitored, or a zone connected to the zone (5, 5') to be monitored, the mode converter being used to a) convert a bulk wave moving towards the monitoring zone (5, 5') into a surface wave and/or b) convert a surface wave moving towards the receiver into a bulk wave. The wave-mode converter (34', 34", 34"', 34"") is preferably made up of several elements disposed at regular intervals in the direction of propagation of the surface wave with a spacing t corresponding approximately to the wavelength  lambda  of the surface wave.

Abstract: A flat wave-motion gear (1) which has an input shaft (4) supported rotatably at both end portions thereof between first and second end plates (2, 3). A wave-motion gear mechanism is incorporated between these end plates (2, 3), and a cross roller bearing (8) is provided on an outer circumferential side of the wave-motion gear mechanism. The wave-motion gear mechanism comprises a rigid internal gear (5), a silk hat-shaped flexible external gear (6) provided on the inner side of the internal gear, and an intermittent driving force generator (7) provided on the inner side of the external gear (6). An annular boss (64) of the flexible external gear is held between an outer race (81) of the cross roller bearing (8) and the second end plate (3), whereby these three members are fastened to one another. The rigid internal gear (5) is held between an inner race (82) of the cross roller bearing (8) and the first end plate (2) whereby these three members are fastened to one another. The input shaft (4) may comprise a hollow shaft. Owing to the employment of such a structure, the apparatus as a whole can be formed flat and to a length slightly larger than the axial length of the flexible external gear. Since the outer race of the cross roller bearing can be used also as a housing of the apparatus, the apparatus can be formed compactly by a reduced number of parts.

Abstract: An integrated circuit tester (10) includes several processing nodes (14), one node associated with each terminal of an integrated circuit device under test (DUT) (12). At precisely determined times, each node generates and transmits a test signal to the associated DUT terminal or samples a DUT output signal produced at the DUT terminal. Each node (14) includes a memory (34) for storing algorithmic instructions for generating a set of commands indicating when a test signal is to be transmitted to the associated terminal and indicating when a DUT output at the associated node is to be sampled. Each node also includes a processor (36) for processing the algorithmic instructions to produce the commands. Each node further includes circuits (40) responsive to the commands for transmitting the test signals to the associated DUT terminal and for sampling the DUT output produced at the associated DUT terminal at times indicated by the commands.

Abstract: An activating mechanism (20) for activating an endoscopic ligator is disclosed. The activating mechanism (20) includes a mounting component (21) and an activating component (22) coupled thereto. The mounting component (21) inserts directly into the proximal opening of an operating channel of an endoscope and is dimensioned to fit within the operating channel to mount the mechanism (20) to the endoscope. The mounting component (21) includes a channel receiving an activation line of the ligating device which is threaded through the operating channel and the channel in the mounting component, and onto the activating component (22) of the activating mechanism (20). The activation line attaches to a spool (50) of the activating component (22). The activating component (22) further provides a drive pin (40) and a roller clutch (70) for setting the activating component (22) in an engaged or a disengaged position and a knob (60) for rotating the drive pin (40). When the drive pin (40) is engaged with the roller clutch (70), the knob (60) can only rotate in one direction. When the drive pin (40) is in the disengaged position from the roller clutch (70), the knob (60) can rotate in either direction.

by the pressure adjustment mechanism ( 18 ) so that the liquid
cooling medium is supplied to the indoor heat exchanger ( 3 )
at the time of the high pressure operation, and the liquid
cooling medium is recovered from the heat exchanger ( 1 ) on
the secondary side to the tank ( T ) and is circulated by a
secondary cooling circuit ( B ) at the time of the low pressure
operation.
