Inventor: HUBER BEAT
IPC: A46D1/00

Granted: 2016-02-17
Abstract: Two major components of the brush (1) comprise differing plastics which do not bond during pressure injection molding. They are held together by friction and/or interlocking. An independent claim is included for the method of making the toothbrush. In a first stage, a first molding is made from one plastic. Then in a second stage the other molding is injected, using a second plastic which does not bond to the first during the injection operation. Preferred features: One part holds the bristles (3), the other (2) forms a handle. Interlocking, firm connection is enhanced by a form of shrink-fitting. Inter-engaging parts interlock together. Projections and recesses interlock. The plastics have differing shrinkage. Moldings may comprise two or more plastic components not bonding with each other. In the method, the first injection is made with plastic of lower shrinkage. In a specific implementation the first injection employs styrene acrylonitrile, the second, polypropylene.

Abstract: The invention is a transverse rotary impulse sealer for heat sealing heat sealable materials that includes a heating zone for sealing the material and a cooling zone for supporting the newly formed seal. The device comprises a conductive zone and a resistive zone that are in electrical communication. The resistive zone comprises a cylindrical member having a circumferential band of resistive material disposed on its surface. The conductive zone comprises a cylindrical member having a plurality of conductive strips extending laterally across its surface that are in electrical communication with the resistive band. Current is applied via a brush to the conductive strips. Current flows from the conductive strips into the resistive band and exits through a conductive strip that is in contact with a ground. Current path through the resistive band defines the heating zone, and the cooling zone is defined by area of the resistant band outside the heating zone.

Abstract: In accordance with the present invention there is provided a suturing device (10). The suturing device includes a length of suture (34) that will be delivered to the site of the PFO and placed through the tissue adjacent the opening to close the PFO. As described in greater detail below, the suture is advanced through the tissue surrounding the opening by a pair of needles (42) that penetrate the tissue adjacent to the opening. A knot is then loosely tied with the length of suture and advanced to the site of the PFO. The tails of the suture extending from the knot are then cut and removed. It is also contemplated that a pre-formed or pre-tied knot may be disposed on the device, wherein after deployment of the suture through the tissue adjacent to the PFO and removal of the device a loop of suture having a pre-tied knot will remain, wherein the pre-tied knot may then be tightened to close the PFO. Further still it is contemplated that other means may be utilized to retain the sutures. For example, it is contemplated that a suture clip or other clip like device may be utilized to retain the suture in a position such that the PFO is closed.

Abstract: In one configuration, erasure of a significant frame of a sustained voiced segment is detected. An adaptive codebook gain value for the erased frame is calculated based on the preceding frame. If the calculated value is less than (alternatively, not greater than) a threshold value, a higher adaptive codebook gain value is used for the erased frame. The higher value may be derived from the calculated value or selected from among one or more predefined values.

Both of the separation circuits have infed at their input side a mixed pulse signal. The external complete image-characteristic pulse-separation circuit is connected at its output side with the first input of a comparator, the second input of which has infed thereto the output signal of an internal complete image characteristic pulse-separation circuit. The output signal of the comparator is infed to the first input of a regulation pulse-switch means, whose output is connected with the clock input of a clock generator, delivering to a respective output an internal mixed pulse signal and an internal horizontal pulse signal. The latter is delivered to the comparator input of the follow-up control and the first input of the internal complete image-characteristic pulse-separation circuit, the second input of which receives the internal mixed pulse signal. The output of the follow-up control is connected with the second input of the regulation pulse switch means.

Abstract: A first housing part (12) has an internal surface (12A) surrounded by a peripheral surface (128, 12C) facing in general the same direction as the internal surface (12A). A substantially longitudinally inextensible flexible diaphragm (15) has its periphery clamped on the first surface (12B, 12C) by a cooperating second surface (16B, 16C,) of a second housing part (16) which carries a rotary member (17) on which are mounted three rollers (18.) A chamber (10) is formed between the diaphragm (15) and the internal surface (12A). Upon rotation of the rotary member (17) the rollers (18) sequentially urge the diaphragm (15) onto the internal surface (12A) to form a constriction which traverses the chamber (10) and moves the constriction from one port (13) to another port (14) formed in the first housing part (12). The configuration is such that, as at least three rollers (18) move sequentially over the diaphragm (15), the sum of the distances measured along the diaphragm (15) between the clamping points (12C, 16C) of the diaphragm (15) and the rollers (18) adjacent thereto, and where appropriate, between the adjacent deflectors (18), remains substantially constant, thus allowing a substantially inextensible membrane (15) to be used.
