摘要:
A device and method of promoting tissue adhesion to reinforce tissue apposition that may include collecting advancing a tissue apposition device to a body cavity having cavity calls, collecting tissue from the cavity walls, passing at least one tissue securement device through the tissue, applying energy to the collected tissue to produce injury to the tissue, and apposing the collected tissue and securing the one or more tissue securement devices. In this illustrative embodiment, the device and method promotes tissue adhesion between one or more portions of tissue, wherein the tissue adhesion may reinforce a tissue apposition.

A water purification system has a longitudinal ultraviolet tube, an arrangement of helically-wound coils surrounding the tube and a filter. Water is exposed to ultraviolet energy before and after flowing through the filter. The filter, ultraviolet tube and helically wound coils are all arranged within a unitary housing adapted for kitchen countertop, sink backsplash or under wall cabinet mounting. The system is capable of operatng directly from a kitchen sink faucet. Connecting elements for the coils are specially designed to be leak-proof. A closed, reflective chamber surrounds the ultraviolet arrangement.
摘要:
A desktop computer terminal having a keyboard in which an operator can enter data and an electronic display module for presenting data entered into and received by the terminal. The module casing is defined by a semi-cylindrical trough covered by a panel on which the display is mounted, the module being nested in a complementary cradle defined by a concavity in the housing of the terminal adjacent the planar face of the keyboard. The module is shiftable from a zero position in which its panel is coplanar with the face of the keyboard, at which position the module is fully nested in the cradle, to an angled position at which the panel is more or less inclined with respect to the keyboard face and the module is then partially nested in the cradle. Means are provided to maintain the display module at that angle which affords optimum visibility.
摘要:
A cabinet assembly for holding electronic instruments comprising a mounting rail defining a channel therein, the mounting rail defining a plurality of spaced apertures and center cutouts and a chassis coupler mounted to mounting rail. A housing is mounted to the chassis coupler and an exterior housing cover is mounted to the housing. The mounting rail is covered by a rail cover panel having wiring raceways and an access cover panel is mounted at the base of the rail cover panel.
