A suture anchor for securing a suture to a bone, comprising a tubular housing for disposition in a hole in a bone, the tubular housing being configured for selective expansion; and an expander for expanding the tubular housing; whereby when a suture is disposed between the tubular housing and a wall of the hole, and the tubular housing is expanded, the tubular housing will bind the suture to the bone.

A B-shaped reinforcement beam is formed from a sheet of material to include vertically spaced upper and lower tubular sections, with a channel-shaped rib formed centrally in the unsupported portion of the front wall over each tube section. The ribs acts to stiffen and stabilize the front wall, causing the actual bending strength of the B beam to be much closer to expected theoretical values. In one form, the ribs have a vertical dimension about 33%-50% of a height of the tubular sections and a depth of about 50%-100% of the rib's height. The rib is particularly effective when the material is less than 2.2 mm, more than 80 KSI, and / or has a significant height-to-depth ratio such as 3:1.

An amplification device for use with a phone or other electronic device having a speaker. The amplification device typically includes an amplification structure having an input end and an output end, and an adapter located proximal to the input end and configured to engage a phone or other electronic device such that a speaker on the phone or other electronic device emanates sound into the input end, whereby the sound is amplified by the amplification structure.

The invention relates to a multi-beam deflector array device for use in a particle-beam exposure apparatus employing a beam of charged particles, the multi-beam deflector array device having a plate-like shape with a membrane region, the membrane region including a first side facing towards the incoming beam of particles, an array of apertures, each aperture allowing passage of a corresponding beamlet formed out of the beam of particles, a plurality of depressions, each depression being associated with at least one aperture, and an array of electrodes, each aperture being associated with at least one electrode and each electrode being located in a depression, the electrodes being configured to realize a non-deflecting state, wherein the particles that pass through the apertures are allowed to travel along a desired path, and a deflecting state, wherein the particles are deflected off the desired path.

A primary optical element for a motor vehicle lighting module, comprising a single monoblock input member and a corrective part, the input member having at least one input face intended to receive light, the input member being connected at output to the corrective part. The corrective part comprises a light output face, at least partly in the shape of a substantially spherical dome, the input member and the corrective part forming a monoblock structure, wherein a vertical profile of the input face of the input member has a convex first part and a second part that is planar or concave.
