66results about How to "Minimize intrusion" patented technology

A substantially cup-shaped prosthetic device for a joint is provided. The prosthetic device includes an outer surface configured to operatively engage at least one of a first bone of the joint and a component and an inner surface configured to connect to a second bone of the joint. The inner surface is rotationally asymmetric to minimize intrusion on a vascular region of the second bone.

The present invention is a replacement mitral valve suitable for catheter-based deployment. The replacement mitral valve has structure and dimensions that are uniquely suited to engage the annulus surrounding the native mitral valve and to restore normal function to a diseased valve. The invention describes the structures and functions of a replacement mitral valve and methods that are adapted for minimally invasive, catheter-based deployment of the valve.

An oil refrigeration screw compressor being applied to a refrigeration system etc., in which the problem of strength reduction of a bearing material under high temperatures and that of lifetime reduction of the bearing material due to viscosity lowering of lubricant are solved. A lubricant supply system to a compressor body is divided into a bearing oil supply system for supplying lubricant to each bearing of the compressor body at low pressure and into a temperature control oil supply system for supplying lubricant into the compressor body at high pressure. The bearing oil supply system is a closed circuit oil supply system comprising an oil supply tank, an oil cooler, and an oil supply pump, and the temperature control oil supply system is a closed circuit oil supply system comprising an oil separator and an oil cooler.

An electromagnetic switch for a starter. The electromagnetic switch includes a cylindrical slidable member that is separate from a plunger, loosely encompasses an outer circumferential periphery of a plunger rod, and is axially movable integrally with the plunger. Whether the solenoid is in its active or inactive state, the slidable member is at least partially axially inserted into an inner circumferential periphery of a cylindrical bore and an outer circumferential periphery of the slidable member is entirely circumferentially in sliding contact with the inner circumferential periphery of the cylindrical bore.

A container (21) for storing and shipping produce is reinforced with at least one cross beam (20) extending across the bottom wall (26) of the container to form a bridge under loose product placed in the container to support at least a portion of the weight of the product and prevent sagging of the container bottom. The cross beam is positioned and held in place by engaging the ends of the cross beam in recesses (71) formed by crushed areas (82) on an inner surface of opposing side walls, or cut-outs (93) in the side walls, and / or by flaps (42, 43) folded upwardly from the container bottom wall and to which the cross beam is attached.

A cornice molding cap is provided as an accessory to cover or eliminate gaps created where cornice molding meets at a corner of a building. The cap covers gaps where cornice molding meets at a corner structure formed by two walls. The cap is particularly useful in exterior siding installations at corners not employing corner posts having receiver pockets for cladding material end edges. A method of finishing a corner molding installation is described, as is a system for finishing such installation, and an assembly including a unitary cornice molding corner cap.

The invention relates to a connection arrangement (6) adapted to connect a first (2) and a second part (3) slidably arranged in relation to each other. The connection arrangement (6) is characterized in that said connection arrangement (6) is adapted to allow the sliding movement between the first (2) and the second part (3) in all directions. The arrangement (6) comprises a connection member (7) directly or indirectly connected to at least one of the first part and the second part (2, 3) and a device creating a spring force and / or a damping force (8) during sliding movement between the first and second part (2, 3) adapted to be connected with or to cooperate with said connection member (7). The invention further relates to a helmet (1) comprising a first helmet part (2) to be arranged closer to a wearer's head, a second helmet part (3) arranged radially outside of the first helmet part (2) and at least one connection arrangement (6) according to the above connecting the first and the second helmet part (2, 3).
