Two-part percutaneous endoscopic intragastric surgery cannula

An apparatus for accessing the gastric lumen, allowing elaborate intragastric surgeries to be carried on. The apparatus consists of two parts; an external part and a transgastric part. The named external part is a cylinder ending in a larger part of different shapes, the external part will be equipped with a mechanism to allow instruments to get inside the stomach while preventing gas from escaping out. It will also contain a gas delivery port to allow insufflation of the stomach through the cannula. The named transgastric part consists of a cylinder of variable lengths ending in an internal gastric bolster that will be either solid-type or balloon-type. This part is attached to a tapering introduction system ending in a wire loop to be used for introduction of this part. The apparatus also includes an extraction catheter to be used during removal of transgastric part with solid-type gastric bolster.

Method and Apparatus for Accessing Proteceted Data

Consumers of content protected multimedia data, such as e.g. commercially available video DVDS, want to take backup copies of these data, and want to be free to play the data on any suitable playback device, while content providers want to protect these data against pirate copying. The disclosed method for accessing application data from a first storage medium, e.g. CD, uses an electronic key for decoding or converting the application data. One or more content identifiers are attached to the application data or the first storage medium. The key is stored on a copy-protected separate second storage medium, e.g. RFID tag, and compared with the content identifier. Playback or format conversion of the application data is only possible when the second storage medium is available. This allows the application data to be copied, distributed or format converted, while simultaneously preserving the content rights of the data because only one copy can be used at a time.

Connection of a prosthesis structure with an implant structure

InactiveUS20120003606A1Easy to removeImprove flexibility and lifetimeDental implantsFastening prosthesisProsthesisMechanical engineering
A connection device for connecting a prosthesis structure with an implant structure comprises a holding shell and a retention insert. The retention insert comprises an end side and a substantially ring-shaped retention rim projecting therefrom. The holding shell comprises an end side and a substantially ring-shaped holding rim projecting therefrom. The holding rim and the end side of the holding shell form a retainer in which the retention insert can be arranged such that an outer surface of the retention rim is adjacent to an inner surface of the holding rim. Moreover, the outer surface of the retention rim is at least partly spaced from and adjacent to the inner surface of the holding rim when the retention insert is arranged in the retainer of the holding shell and when essentially no radial forces are acting on the holding rim and on the retention rim. In that the adjacent outer surface of the retention rim and inner surface of the holding rim are at least partly not contacting each other but are spaced from each other when essentially no radial forces are acting on the holding rim and on the retention rim, it can, i.a., be achieved that the retention insert is connected relatively loosely with the holding shell when the connection device has not yet been placed on the implant structure. This loose connection can allow the retention insert to be relatively easily removed from the holding shell and inserted in the holding shell without having to be substantially deformed or strained in any other way. Thus, it is possible to insert and remove the retention insert gently, which can improve the flexibility and lifetime of the connection device.
