Abstract: In accordance with invention an application device for nasal splints is created, comprising at least one hollow body for accommodating a nasal splint, and a plunger which can be moved within the hollow body, wherein one end face of the hollow body is open so that a nasal splint contained in the hollow body can be introduced through a movement of the plunger from the hollow body through the open end face into the nose of a patient.

Abstract: A modified tubular, particularly a drill pipe (12) has a composite non-rotating drill pipe protector assembly (1) including first and second composite collars (2, 3) provided as cooperating parts positionable around the drill pipe (12) and bondable thereto using bonding agent, a non-rotating composite protector shell (4), provided as cooperating shell parts and an internal polymeric radial bearing (7) which fits within a recess (41) within the non-rotating composite protector shell (4) and has an internal surface (10) configured to provide a plurality of internal fluid flow channels (11). An external surface of the non-rotating composite protector shell (4) has blades (14), spaced apart by fluid flow by-pass channels (24). In use the rotation of the drill pipe facilitates fluid movement within the non-rotating composite protector shell by creating a pumping effect inducing ingress of fluid and through-flow within the internal polymeric radial bearing (7).

Abstract: A cable clamp, modified tubular, and method for securing a cable to a tubular. The cable clamp includes a first base that is configured to be attached to the tubular by a bonding material, and a cover that is configured to be placed on the first base. At least one of the first base or the cover defines a groove extending therein, for receiving a cable through the cable clamp.
