An intravascular basket device for use in capturing either naturally occurring or foreign debris found in blood vessels or other regions of the body. The basket device is fabricated from a tube and includes a mid-section having at least one ring configured in an alternating V-pattern. The basket device specifically embodies structure that provides enhanced radial opening and angular resistance to collapse.

An intravascular snare device for use in capturing debris found in blood vessels. The snare device is fabricated from a tube and includes longitudinally and circumferentially extending members. The snare device specifically embodies structure that provides enhanced radial opening and angular resistance to collapse.

Disclosed is an apparatus for automatically adjusting clearance of a support yoke of a rack and pinion type steering apparatus, the apparatus including: a support yoke making contact with one side of a rack bar so as to support the rack bar; at least one cam assembled with one side of the support yoke so as to support the support yoke; a yoke plug which is positioned at one side of the cam so as to support the cam and is assembled with a rack housing; and a yoke spring included at one side of the support yoke so as to apply elastic force to the support yoke in a direction of the rack bar. In a case where the support yoke is worn away due to friction, etc. against the rack bar, while the cam performs relative rotation movement respective to the support yoke by means of an elastic force of the elastic member disposed between the support yoke and the cam, the spacing member pushes the support yoke in a direction of the rack bar so as to maintain a predetermined interval between the spacing member and the support yoke, thereby maintaining clearance of the support yoke in a predetermined degree.

A calf roping training apparatus incorporating a simulated calf, a support column and a towing structure. The support column has a spin joint and an invert joint. The calf body of the simulated calf is formed by one or more pieces of simulated skin and a simulated head fixed in anatomical form by a body frame. The support column is anchored to the towing structure. The towing structure has a tow member, a pair of long skids, a short skid, and a towing attachment device. The support column base is attached to the short skid which provides for transfer of the weight of the simulated calf to the ground. The support column top is attached to or integrated with the body frame.

A flexible display including a first flexible substrate and a second flexible substrate, a plurality of electrodes and control microcircuits disposed on inner surfaces of both substrates, first channels disposed on the inner surface of the first flexible substrate and extending in a first direction, second channels disposed on the inner surface of the second flexible substrate and extending in a second direction, and a plurality of spacers disposed between the substrates. The inner surfaces of the substrates are substantially parallel and facing each other. The first direction and the second direction of the channels are inclined relative to each other. The spacers are disposed between the substrates in cross-points of the first channels and the second channels.

A pressure actuated valve assembly includes a valve body. The downstream end portion of a main spring is engaged with a downstream end portion of the valve body and the main spring is axially aligned with the valve body. A main spring guide is engaged with an upstream end portion of the main spring proximate an upstream end portion of the valve body. The main spring guide is mounted for movement toward the downstream end portion of the valve body by compression of the main spring. A hold-down sleeve is engaged with the downstream end portion of the valve body and includes a stop structure proximate the main spring guide. The stop structure is configured to engage the main spring guide to maintain a predetermined minimum clearance between the main spring guide and the upstream end portion of the valve body with the valve body in the closed condition.

In forming a can body by processing a cup-shaped in-process material with a punch and a die, the die is not heated when the forming process is not carried out, and the die is heated when the forming process is carried out. Therefore, the temperature of the die is adjusted in accordance with the temperature rise of the punch result from the forming process, a clearance between the punch and the die can be maintained, misalignment of the punch and the die can be prevented, and slip and elongation becomes preferable. Therefore, nonuniformity in the wall thickness, breakage of the can body, and breakage of a flange can be suppressed.

An electrostatic motor includes a stator electrode member (1a) and a slider electrode member (1b). The stator electrode member (1a) and the slider electrode member (1b) are provided with drive electrode patterns (2), and the drive electrode patterns are covered by cover films (4). Surfaces of the stator electrode member (1a) and the slider electrode member (1b) contacting each other are provided with a plurality of minute projections (5). A clearance between the stator electrode member and the slider electrode member is maintained by the contact of the projections. The projections (5) may also be provided on only one of the stator electrode member (1a) and the slider electrode member (1b), with the other electrode member having a flat surface.

An indexable drill is offered which enables suitable integration of a drill body and cutting insert. The crosshatch angles of clamp receiving faces of a cutting insert which are respectively pressed by clamp faces and of torque receiving faces which cross the clamp receiving faces and are adjacent thereto and to which is transmitted the rotary force of the drill body from the torque transmission faces are formed smaller within a range of 2° or less which is less than the crosshatch angles of clamp faces which clamp and hold the cutting insert of the drill body and torque transmission faces which cross these clamp faces and are adjacent thereto and which transmit the rotary force of the drill body to the cutting insert.
