    摘要: A device useful in minimally-invasive procedures involving the visualization, dissection and/or harvesting of vessels in the body includes a shaft having a handle mounted on one end and a dissecting tip on the other end. The dissecting tip optionally includes a light source for directing light transverse of the tip and structures to retain the tip in position adjacent the vessel as the tip is advanced along the vessel. Also disclosed are associated methods for transilluminating a vessel, dissecting the vessel from surrounding tissue, and transecting the vessel and side branches and removing the vessel from the body.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for adding torsion to a roller tube assembly of a retractable awning which includes a roller tube rotatable about a rod and a torsion spring between the roller tube and the rod. The model number of the roller tube assembly and the required number of turns to obtain the desired torsion is input, by bar code scanner, into a programmable controller. The controller is preprogrammed with data relating to the proper holding assemblies required for various model numbers and boundaries for the data input by the bar code scanner. The controller first verifies that the proper holding fixture is present. The rod is coupled to a drive motor for rotation therewith and the roller tube is secured in the holding assembly to substantially prevent rotation thereof. The rod is coupled and the roller tube is secured solely by longitudinally moving the roller tube assembly into the holding fixture. The drive motor rotates the rod relative to the roller tube for the input number of revolutions to add the desired amount of torsion. The rod is then locked to the roller tube and uncoupled from the drive motor and the roller tube is removed from the holding fixture.

    摘要: The present invention is directed towards a temperature regulation system for providing heating and cooling for an interior of a truck. The temperature regulation system may be operated for an extended period of time without relying on the truck's engine or start battery for power. Therefore, the apparatus is ideal for heating and cooling a sleeping compartment within the truck while the engine is not running. The temperature regulation system comprises a climate control unit having a power control board, a control terminal having operator adjustable controls, a power inverter having a direct current input and an alternating current output, and a secondary battery.

    摘要: Apparatus for inhibiting substantial rearward displacement of an automotive vehicle's engine/transmission powertrain and for transferring rearward thrust of the engine to support structure of the vehicle. A rigid transversely extending cross beam in the form of a hollow tube is secured to the support structure and located just rearwardly of the powertrain. An impact member is secured to the engine/transmission in a position between the engine and the cross beam. The impact member is in the form of an elongated, generally C-shaped bar with its opposite ends secured to the engine/transmission. The impact bar has an intermediate portion formed with a concave section spaced from and opposed to the cross beam member. Rearward thrust of the engine/transmission is transmitted to the cross beam and ultimately to the support structure of the vehicle, inhibiting substantial rearward movement of the engine/transmission.
