Title: Self-adjusting stripper pin for strapping machine strap chute
Inventor: BOBREN ALLAN J
IPC: B65B13/18
Filed: 2009-12-07
Granted: 2014-07-03
Abstract: A self-adjusting stripper pin is for use in a strap chute for a strapping machine and includes a mount mounted to a fixed portion of the strapping machine, a reciprocating pin disposed in the mount for reciprocating movement relative to the mount and a pin spring disposed between the pin and the mount for biasedly mounting the pin to the mount.

Title: Seismic imaging systems and methods employing a fast target-oriented illumination calculation
Inventor: LUO MINGQIU
IPC: G01V1/00
Filed: 2009-04-16
Granted: 2013-09-12
Abstract: In various disclosed seismic imaging systems and methods, a fast target-oriented illumination calculation technique is employed to obtain a data volume or "matrix" of approximate illumination values. These illumination values enable an image matrix of "true reflectivity" values to be found. The illumination values are derived from Green's functions which, rather than being calculated and re-calculated on a shot-by-shot basis, are calculated in multi-shot groups and combined with a rolling-sum to greatly reduce the computational overhead. As a consequence, the disclosed systems and methods can provide target region illuminations more quickly and/or with higher quality than those systems relying on conventional 3D wave-equation illumination.

Title: Modular percutaneous valve structure and delivery method
Inventor: RICHTER YORAM
IPC: A61F2/24
Filed: 2010-01-13
Granted: 2015-05-07
Abstract: A modular prosthetic valve device for implantation in a patient is disclosed. The valve device is designed as two or more modules to be delivered unassembled and combined into an assembled valve device in the body - e.g., in the body at or near the site where implantation occurs. The two or more modules may be a support structure and a valve assembly. The valve assembly may be formed from two or more valve sections. Because the valve device of the invention is deliverable as modules, it may have a smaller delivery diameter than pre-assembled percutaneous valves and permits use of a delivery device of reduced diameter. Delivering the valve device as modules increases the flexibility of the valve device during delivery, compared to percutaneous valve devices in the art. The invention further provides a system for and method of delivering such a modular valve device and assembling it in vivo. The modules of the valve device may be connected by pull wires for delivery sequentially to or near the implantation site in the body lumen, and then assembled by remote manipulation using the pull wires. The system may further include a temporary valve that may be deployed to maintain valvular function while the device modules are assembled. The temporary valve may be attached to the delivery device and deployed either before or after the support structure is expanded, or the temporary valve may be attached to the support structure and deployed when the support structure is expanded. Various locking mechanisms are provided for attaching the device modules together.
