A locking system for mechanical joining of floorboards. For horizontal mechanical joining there is a projecting portion with a locking element which cooperates with a locking groove in an adjacent board. A tongue-and-groove joint for vertical mechanical joining has cooperating upper abutment surfaces and cooperating lower abutment surfaces which are essentially parallel with the principal plane of the floorboards and of which the lower abutment surfaces are positioned essentially outside the outer vertical plane, i.e. displaced relative to the upper abutment surfaces. The tongue is movable at an angle into the groove and the locking element is insertable into the locking groove by mutual angular movement of the boards about the joint edges.

A hydraulic differential with a variable displacement hydraulic unit of the axial piston type, a fixed displacement hydraulic unit of the axial piston type, a stationary housing for mounting the hydraulic units, an input shaft for coupling to a variable speed power source and an output shaft for coupling to a constant speed load, comprises: a wobbler and a port plate for the variable displacement hydraulic unit coupled to the stationary housing; an axial block and piston set for the variable displacement hydraulic unit, a port plate for the fixed displacement hydraulic unit and a wobbler for the fixed displacement hydraulic unit coupled to the input shaft; and an axial block and piston set for the fixed displacement hydraulic unit coupled to the output shaft; wherein the variable displacement hydraulic unit port plate and the fixed displacement hydraulic unit port plate couple together through a circumferential interface to minimise hydraulic thrust forces developed by the hydraulic unit.

The present invention provides a stent delivery catheter that can place a stent in a tortuous narrowed area with good maneuverability while preventing falling or displacement of the stent. <??>The present invention provides a stent delivery catheter for delivering a stent for treating stenosis in a body to a narrowed area. A distal end of the catheter includes a collapsible balloon in a collapsed state and the stent in an undeployed state, the stent being mounted on the outer surface of the collapsed balloon, the balloon having frustoconical tapered segments and a cylindrical straight tubular segment. An inner tube for defining a guidewire lumen extends into the interior of the balloon, and displacement prevention mechanisms for preventing the stent from moving in the longitudinal direction of the stent delivery catheter are affixed to the inner surface of the balloon only. Another aspect of the present invention provides a stent delivery catheter that can prevent the stent from moving in the axis direction of the catheter without requiring additional components or additional steps that complicate the manufacturing process. In this catheter, the thickness T1 of a near-center portion of the distal-end tapered segment and the thickness T2 of a near-center portion of the straight tubular segment satisfy a predetermined relationship, and the thickness T3 of a near-center portion of the proximal-end tapered segment and the thickness T2 of the near-center portion of the straight tubular segment satisfy a predetermined relationship. In this manner, the distal-end and proximal-end tapered segments in the collapsed state prevent the movement of the stent. The present invention also provides a preferable RX balloon catheter, i.e., a stent delivery catheter, having improved maneuverability and enhanced responsiveness for expansion and contraction of the balloon without complicating the manufacturing process or increasing the cost.
