A motorized surgical instrument that may be held by the surgeon or be attached to the surgeon's limb via a special adapter that includes an interface between the surgeon and the surgical tool is provided. The motorized surgical instrument includes mechanism, motors, gears, interface and power source that enable the surgeon to easily control the motorized surgical tools in order perform the surgical procedure.

An article of footwear including a sole and an upper, the upper including a seat adapted to nest the user's heel, the seat including a first stiffener, and an arrangement for varying the size or volume of the seat provided by the first stiffener, between an expanded position, for which the volume of the seat is relatively large, and a retracted position, for which the volume of the seat is reduced.

A moveable animated display device for displaying a plurality of images with a pressure plate carrier, a pressure plate retained in relation to the pressure plate carrier, a plurality of coded images, a plurality of shutter elements slidably retained in relation to the plurality of coded images, and at least one biasing formation, such as a crease, in the pressure plate for inducing a biasing of the pressure plate toward the pressure plate carrier. The display device can have the pressure plate slidably retained relative to the pressure plate carrier, and the biasing formation can be parallel or orthogonal to a path of travel of the pressure plate in relation to the pressure plate carrier. The display device can comprise a card wherein a pivoting of a cover member relative to a base member induces animation as an animation layer slides in relation to the pressure plate.

The invention provides a display panel and an electronic device. The display panel comprises a first substrate, a second substrate, a high-resistance shielding layer, a conductive film, a ground welding spot and a conductive connecting portion. The second substrate faces the first substrate. The high-resistance shielding layer is disposed on one side, far away from the second substrate, of the first substrate. The conductive film is disposed between the first substrate and the high-resistance shielding layer. The conductive film comprises a contact portion in contact with the high-resistance shielding layer and an extension portion exposed. The ground welding spot is disposed on one side, close to the first substrate, of the second substrate. The conductive connecting portion electrically connect the extension portion of the conductive film and the ground welding spot The high-resistance shielding layer can be tightly contacted with the conductive film; the conductive film can transfer static electricity of the high-resistance shielding layer to the ground welding spot through the conductive connecting portion, thus good static conduction is achieved, the problem that the static electricity of the high-resistance shielding layer cannot be fully transmitted to the ground welding spot due to poor contact is avoided, and the touch and display performances of the panel is unaffected.

A bone plate and system is provided. The bone fixation plate conforms to the contour of an irregularly shaped bone and eliminates the need for pre-bending or intraoperative bending of the plate. The bone plate is applied to the bone in a generally flat condition and the process of installing and tightening the bone screws in the prescribed order serves to contour the plate to the plate to the underlying bone while providing sufficient strength to effect bone healing. The geometry of the plate allows the plate to follow the contour of an irregularly shaped bone, preventing prominence and patient palpability and streamlining the surgical procedure.

A ventilation member (100) of the invention includes a tubular part (11), a gas permeable filter (19), and a cover part (31). In an attached state where the tubular part (11) is fit into the cover part (31), gaps functioning as gas passages (AR2 and AR3) are formed between a bottom portion (35) of the cover part (31) and the gas permeable filter (19) and between a side wall portion (39) of the cover part (31) and a body portion (17) of the tubular part (11). The opening area (S2) of a filter-end opening (15) with respect to an in-plane direction (WL) perpendicular to the thickness direction of the gas permeable filter (19) is larger than the opening area (S1) of a connection-end opening (13) with respect to the in-plane direction (WL).

An inkjet printing press is provided which can hold sheets extremely stably. In an inkjet printing press, an inkjet head 3 is provided at the outer periphery of a printing drum 1 rotated in one direction. The printing drum 1 is provided with holding claws 15 which are opened and closed to hold the leading end of the sheet S, and clamps 21 which can be opened and closed for clamping the trailing end of the sheet S. When the clamps 21 are moved from their open positions to their closed positions, the clamps 21 are moved backward with respect to the rotating direction of the printing drum 1 to impart a tensile force to the trailing end of the sheet S and tighten the sheet so that the trailing end of the sheet is held by a clamp 21 with the sheet in its tight state. Also, the clamp 21 is brought into contact with the periphery of the printing drum 1 by an attracting device to assure the holding of the sheet.
