Title: Flexible endoscopic instrument for invagination and fundoplication
Inventor: KORTENBACH JUERGEN ANDREW
IPC: A61B17/064
Filed: 1998-11-02
Granted: 2002-09-19
Abstract: An endoscopic surgical instrument includes a flexible tube, a grasping and fastening end effector coupled to the distal end of the tube, and a manual actuator coupled to the proximal end of the tube. The manual actuator is coupled to the end effector by a plurality of flexible cables which extend through the tube. The tube contains a lumen for receiving a manipulable endoscope and the end effector includes a passage for the distal end of the endoscope. The end effector has a store for a plurality of male fastener parts, a store for a plurality of female fastener parts, a rotatable grasper, a rotatable fastener head for aligning a female fastener part and a male fastener part with tissues therebetween, and a firing member for pressing a male fastener part through tissues grasped by the grasper and into a female fastener part. According to a presently preferred embodiment the overall diameters of the flexible tube and the end effector (when rotated to the open position) do not exceed approximately 20 mm so that the instrument may be delivered transorally to the fundus of the stomach. The manual actuator is provides with a lock-out feature which prevents firing male fastener parts before the fastener head is closed. The instrument is advantageously utilized in a fundoplication procedure.

Granted: 2005-01-06
Abstract: Currently, 9 mmx19 mm caliber cartridges in the form of full-jacketed round-head bullets are used for small arms, especially for arms used by police. For safety reasons, efforts are being made to replace these bullets with a type of bullet that is prevented from passing straight through the target medium.

Title: Method and apparatus for the continuous production of cellulosic pulp
Inventor: HOFFMAN ROGER P
IPC: D21C7/00
Filed: 1995-08-31
Granted: 1998-06-18
Abstract: A method and apparatus for the continuous production of cellulosic pulp for use in a papermaking process. The apparatus includes a vessel containing a pulping liquor and the vessel consists of a first impregnation zone and a second attrition zone. Wood chips are continuously fed into the upper end of the first zone and are subject to gentle agitation to impregnate the chips with the liquor. The impregnated chips then flow into the second zone where they are heated to a low temperature of 80 DEG  to 120 DEG  C. and subjected to more severe agitation to break down the chips and liberate the individual fibers. The liquid level in the first zone is higher than in the second zone, causing the liquid to flow upwardly in the second zone with the cooking liquor and the liberated fibers being continuously discharged from the upper end of the second zone, while larger wood chips are retained in the second zone for further attrition. The liberated fibers are removed from the cooking conditions as they are liberated to thereby prevent overcooking and discoloration of the pulp.
