Abstract: Disclosed herein are several embodiments of a negative pressure appliance and methods of using the same in the treatment of wounds. Some embodiments are directed to improved fluidic connectors or suction adapters for connecting to a wound site, for example using softer, kink-free conformable suction adapters.

Abstract: A power tool including a housing mounted to be moveable with respect to, and spaced from, a base, said housing including a motor to rotate a shaft which includes, at its free end, a tool holder for a tool, said shaft extending from the housing such that the tool holder is located at or adjacent to the base and can pass through an aperture in said base, said housing connected to the base by one or more support assemblies, and a sleeve provided to be positioned on the base and form therein an area in which the said tool and aperture in the base are located when performing work on a workpiece. Dust extraction apparatus can be connected and the base can be selectively provided with guide means and also includes attachment means to allow the power tool to be selectively located with a worksurface or a guide plate.

Abstract: A router power tool including a housing mounted to be moveable with respect to and spaced from a base, said housing including a motor to rotate a shaft which includes, at its free end, a tool holder for a cutting tool, said shaft extending from the housing such that the tool holder is located at or adjacent to the base and said housing is connected to the base by at least one extendable assembly. The power tool is selectively locatable with a guide plate via retaining means. The guide plate includes apertures for the receipt of retaining means to allow the power tool to be engaged therewith and datum tabs to contact with the power tool to ensure the accurate location of the power tool with the guide plate when held in position by the retaining means.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a negative pressure wound closure system and methods for using such a system. Preferred embodiments of the invention facilitate closure of the wound by preferentially contracting to provide for movement of the tissue. Preferred embodiments can utilize tissue securing portions that aid in securing the invention within a wound.

Abstract: An apparatus and method are disclosed for providing a fluid communication path to a wound site through a drape. The apparatus comprises a body portion having a lower surface and an upper surface, at least one connection port, at least one suction port and at least one fluid communication passageway between the connection port and the suction port. A connector at an end of at least one tubular conduit is locatable through the drape into an orifice in the connection port to thereby provide a fluid communication path through the drape between the tubular conduit and the wound site.

Abstract: Herein are disclosed methods for liberating one or more packaged devices from a packaging web, and a dispenser for performing such methods. The packaging web is separated into first and second waste webs which are co-wound onto a common collection spool.

Abstract: The sensor module carries one or more sensor element, such as microphones or imaging devices, for detecting events in use. The sensor module has a locator for determining its location and preferably an orientation sensor for determining it location and a transceiver for communicating with other modules in the network or with a base station. The module also has a processor which is adapted such that, in use, the module communicates with other sensor modules and determines whether to operate in a sensing mode to detect events or a controlling mode. In this way a self organizing adaptive network is provided.

Abstract: A system for detecting munitions in flight comprises a radar transmitter, receiver, and associated antennas, wherein the antennas are oriented to include ground level coverage, and where a receive antenna is arranged to provide a plurality of receive beams. The system further incorporates a Doppler filter arranged to reject targets that have velocity profiles that do not match those expected of targets of interest. If a target of interest is detected then an indication is provided, preferably in the form of an audible alert, allowing those nearby time to take cover. The system provides a simple munitions detection capability that may operate in CW mode to allow rapid detection, and may also have means such as switchable FMCW, and elevation measurement to allow estimation of possible landing areas of the target.
