Instrument for placing surgical clips
An instrument for placing U-shaped surgical clips comprising a magazine that has a distal and a proximal end in which several clips are arranged one behind the other in a guide that can be pushed in longitudinal direction. On the lower side of the magazine, a feeding plate which by means of flexible lugs is in contact with the back sides of the clips and can be pushed forwards and backwards by means of a pushing device over at least a distance between one clip and the next clip parallel to the guide of the magazine is provided. The movement of pushing forward shifts all the clips in the direction of the distal end of the magazine. When the feeding plate is pushed forwards, the pushing device contacts said feeding plate at a point which is at a distance of at least half a length of the feeding plate away from the proximal end of the feeding plate.

InactiveUS20120181953A1Weakening rangeReduce arcingContact mechanismsElectric motor controlAutomotive batteryElectrical battery
A device and method for operating automotive battery system relays and related switches. By aligning a magnetic field with a direction of current flow in a contact plate disposed between magnets that are producing the field, a generated Lorentz force can be used to promote arc extinguishing during a relay opening sequence, while simultaneously reducing the tendency of the Lorentz forces to interfere with the operation of a solenoid or other switch-activating mechanisms. By using a rotary-based mechanism to establish contact between a contact plate and current-carrying terminals, the likelihood of inadvertent opening of the relay is reduced. Such devices and methods may be used in conjunction with hybrid-powered and electric-powered vehicles.

Kinetic energy contained in oceans, rivers and channels can be converted to power using kinetic hydro turbines. These turbines can be tethered to the ocean floor, riverbed and channel bottom and their vertical position within the water column controlled. A method is disclosed that permits to increase the power extracted by the turbine by modifying the boundary layer using a shaped object located upstream of the turbine to increase the flow velocity through the turbine. The object also provides protection during climatic events like spring ice breakup, logs and storms that could damage the turbine. Additionally the shaped object can allow the turbine to be tethered to it. The shaped object can be made symmetric to allow operating in tidal conditions where the flow direction changes periodically. On site manufacturing can also alleviate overall costs.
