IPC: H01C3/00
Filed: 1994-11-10
Granted: 2001-10-09
Abstract: PURPOSE: To eliminate generation of wire shortcircuiting, etc., in an electric fusion deposition type saddle joint of such a structure that an electric heater wire is embedded spirally in the bottom part of the saddle, by furnishing a fold in part of the heater wire, and thereby allowing the heater wire to move in the fusion deposit process in the direction of going farther from the adjacent heater wire. CONSTITUTION: A saddle joint 1 includes a hollow cylinder part 2, saddle part 3, and a branch pipe connection part 4 which branches from the part 2 and with which another pipe is connected. The arrangement further includes a cap 5 to seal the top opening of the cylinder part 2, a clamp hitch part 6 for mounting of the clamp device, an inner 7 embedded in the bottom surface of the saddle part 3, and a connector pin 9 with which the ends of a heater wire 8 are connected. In a part of the spiral winding of the heater wire 8, a fold 80 is furnished in such an arrangement as directed outward at the periphery of the winding. In case the heater wire 8 has made linear expansion, the wrinkling aside in the moving amount is absorbed by the fold 80 so that risk of wire shortcircuit, etc., is eliminated.

Downstream of the slot (2) there is a displacement body (3) extending over the entire length of the slot arranged to be movable towards and away from the slot (2). This provides two roughly parallel venturi grooves (6) between the walls of the throttle (1) and the outside wall of the displacement body (3). The cross-sections of the two venturi grooves (6) can be adjusted as desired by moving said displacement body (3). The groove (1) in the flow pipe (7) preferably consists of two commercially available transverse pipes (8) of circular cross-section. The flow pipe (7) and the displacement body (3) may also be made from commercially available tubes with a circular cross-section. The differential pressure cleaner thus provided can be economically produced and combines the advantage of venturi and annular gap cleaners.

Abstract: An acetabular cup for use as a prosthetic implant has an insert with a body including a central bore for receiving a positioning rod therein. A key element is formed on the bore and is adapted to align the positioning rod. The insert has a locating element formed on an outer surface of the body and also includes spring elements extending radially outwardly from the body. The acetabular cup has a generally hemispherical shell member coupled to the outer surface of the insert. The shell has an outer surface for engaging the acetabulum and an inner surface having a circumferential groove for receiving the spring elements. The spring elements may be deflected radially inwardly out of engagement with the groove for releasing the insert from the shell. The spring elements can be deflected by pushing a sleeve down the rod to make contact with and deflect the spring element. The shell has a plurality of apertures extending from its inner to its outer surface, which apertures are located in an asymmetrical pattern about the shell. The shell includes a recess on its open end for receiving the locating element on the insert to align the insert at a predetermined orientation with respect to the apertures in the shell. The engagement of the insert onto the shell and the engagement of the locating element in the recess aligns the key element on the central bore and, therefore, the positioning rod at a predetermined orientation with respect to the apertures in the shell.
