A retractor for use in surgery, has arms (2, 4) pivotal into a V-shaped configuration. Blades (16) are carried by the arms via mounting portions (16a) which can slide along the arms to provide adjustment in position with the blades being locked in that position simply by skewing the mounting portions on the arms.

An arterial clamp has opposed clamping posts arranged to lie at opposite sides of an artery to clamp the artery between opposed clamping faces of the posts. The posts are carried by a pair of arms pivotally movable one relative to the other to move the posts into clamping relationship with the artery. A ratchet device releasably locks the arms in a selected clamping position. The clamp including posts, arms, and ratchet device is formed as a one-piece plastics moulding.

A voltage level shifting device for translating a lower operating voltage to a higher operating voltage includes a first input node coupled to a first pull down device and a second input node coupled to a second pull down device. The second node receives a complementary logic signal with respect to the first input node, the first and second input nodes associated with the lower operating voltage. A first pull up device is in series with the first pull down device and second pull up device is in series with the second pull down device, with the first and second pull up devices coupled to a power supply at the higher operating voltage. An output node is between the second pull down device and the second pull up device, the output node controlling the conductivity of the first pull up device. A clamping device is in parallel with the first pull up device, and configured to prevent the second pull up device from becoming fully saturated.

A content management system for associating content with user attributes and delivering targeted content to a wireless handset is described. The content management system comprises a database, a wireless handset, and a terminal. The database is configured to store a plurality of user profiles, a plurality of content items, and a plurality of content connections that connect content items to user profile data. The wireless handset presents a first interface that enables the wireless handset user to create and edit a user profile comprising one or more user attributes. The user profile is stored in the database. The terminal presents a second interface to a content administrator. The second interface enables the content administrator to create and edit content items. The content items are stored in the database. Content connections associate one or more user attributes with a content item.
摘要:
A constant velocity (CV) joint assembly comprising a CV joint and an input member is disclosed. The CV joint that has a cage and a gear between which rotational drive can be transmitted. The input member is connected to the cage of the CV joint for transmission of rotational drive about an axis from an external component to the CV joint. The rotational drive is transmitted between the cage and the input member through interacting drive faces that are disposed in a plane that is generally parallel to the axis. The cage and the input member are retained in interconnection by fastening means that are not responsible for transmission of rotational drive between the cage and the input member. By separating the task of transmission of torque and retention of the connection between the cage and the input member, the fastening means required to perform the latter task can be comparatively light. An increase in torque capacity of the CV joint assembly does not lead to a corresponding increase in the strength requirement of such fastening means. The orientation of the drive faces ensures that there is minimal axial force between the cage and the input member.

A high-speed interface between a first network component and a second network component includes a positive voltage input (VINP) and a negative voltage input (VINN) for receiving an input data signal from the first network component; the positive voltage input (VINP) coupled to a negative output circuit (OUTN) and the negative voltage input (VINN) by a positive input bus and a negative input bus, the negative voltage input (VINN) also coupled to a positive output circuit (OUTP). Implementing the high-speed interface calls for applying a bias to the a positive input bus and a negative input bus to periodically multiplex a data signal, thus providing a common receiving path for functional data and wrap data of the data signal.

A voltage translator with data buffer includes an input inverter receiving a data input signal at a first voltage level. A level shifting cross-coupled NOR circuit is coupled to the input inverter for translating the data input signal at a second voltage level. An output stage driven by the level shifting cross-coupled NOR circuit for providing a data output signal at the second voltage level. The voltage translator enables improved performance across various power, voltage and temperature (PVT) conditions and reliably reduces or minimizes shoot through current and delay.
