Abstract: A probe (10) for inserting suture (20) in a body comprises an elongated shaft (12) having an opening (18) therein adjacent to a tissue puncturing tip (16) for receiving an end (19) of the suture (20). Other portions of the suture (20) are disposed outside of the shaft (12). A clamp (22) releasably secures the end (19) of the suture (20) within the opening (18). In a preferred embodiment, the opening (18) is oriented at an acute angle (17) to the shaft (12), and the clamp (22) includes a rod (30) disposed for axial movement within the shaft (12) and having a distal end arranged to intercept the opening (18). An actuator (24) mounted to a handle (14) of the probe (10) engages a proximal end of the rod (30) to selectively move the rod (30) axially between a first position in which the distal end of the rod (30) clamps the end (19) of the suture (20) within the opening (18), and a second position in which the rod (30) releases the suture (20) for removal from the opening (18).

Abstract: A state of charge test is first performed on the battery by applying a current pulse 102 and then observing the voltage decay characteristics 112, 116, 118, 120 which result. Batteries which are initially nearly fully charged exhibit a larger voltage decay than batteries which are not as fully charged. The result of this initial state of charge test is used to determine how to best terminate battery charging. In this way battery overcharging is prevented regardless of the initial state of charge of the battery.

Abstract: A stretch controlled forming mechanism and method for preventing uncontrolled stretching, wrinkling, or splitting of blanks (14, 114) during forming is provided that forms and locks the blank between opposed die surfaces (18, 30) along selected portions thereof. Such locking prevents continued flow of material in those areas during the remainder of the formation process. Thus, with the selected areas restricted from further material flow, the portion of the blank (14, 114) not previously formed can be formed between opposed dies, without damage to the selected seams or the remaining material of the blank.

Abstract: The present invention produces discrete droplets of cryogenic liquid (3), suitable for injection into receptacles (21) such as cans or plastic bottles, at high speeds. A container (1) of cryogenic liquid (3) includes a hole (9) and an orifice (12), spaced apart from each other, and defining a path for liquid to flow out of the container. A conduit (13) directs a gas into the space (15) between the hole and the orifice. The orifice is formed in an orifice plug (11) which can be adjusted so as to vary the volume of the space between the hole and the orifice. When gas fills the space, the gas tends to prevent the outflow of liquid. When gas is withdrawn from the space, liquid can flow out of the container. By rapidly closing and opening a valve (17) which supplies gas to the space, and by proper choice of the volume of the space, the liquid can be made to fall out of the container in discrete droplets.

Date May 23, 1995The invention concerns a transport and storage container for package freights, the aim of the invention being to permit such freight material to be removed from containers through an opening in the side even when the containers are stacked one on top of the other. Disposed in one of the side walls (4) or face walls (6, 7) is a flap (8) the height of which is less than the height (16) of the opening by an amount at least equal to the vertical width of a mounting slot (13) in which the flap is mounted. The flap (8) is mounted by means of bearing pins (9) which fit in mounting slots (12, 13) so that it can move vertically and pivot and so that it can be locked in place in the opening by means of locking pins (10, 11). The container proposed also meets the requirements for ease of recycling by virtue of the fact that only a single material is use in its construction.
