  • Publication number: 20230380852
    Abstract: A medical instrument includes a first instrument branch having a first bearing portion with a first support surface, and includes a second instrument branch having a second bearing portion with a second support surface. The first support surface bears flat against the second support surface such that the first support surface can pivot in a sliding fashion so that the first instrument branch is pivotable relative to the second instrument branch about a pivot axis. The first bearing portion and/or the second bearing portion has, in the region of the pivot axis, a shoulder portion or a shoulder element with an end face that includes the associated support surface. The shoulder portion or shoulder element is stepped outwardly relative to the associated bearing portion in the direction of the pivot axis so that the associated support surface is stepped outwardly relative to the associated bearing portion.

  • Publication number: 20050236840
    Abstract: A tidal-powered desalinization system is mounted on a barge that oscillates about fixed pier structures, generating a two-way pumping action. The two-way pumping action is changed to a single direction flow of seawater. The sea water is directed into an on-board desalinization system. Fresh water is produced and collected in reservoirs, without an intervening generation of electricity.

  • Publication number: 20040268229
    Abstract: A display is made of an electronic form that contains operable fields corresponding to components that correspond to nodes in a tree arrangement of hierarchical data. Each node has a structure. The operable fields have a hierarchical arrangement in the display of the electronic form. The hierarchical arrangement of the operable fields in the electronic form visually mimics the nodes in the tree arrangement of hierarchical data and also mimics the structure of each node. A user can enter data into the operable fields of the electronic form and the data is received. Each node has an attribute that defines the availability of actions to the user when the user enters the data into the operable fields of the electronic form. The hierarchical data in a data file is altered to correspondingly reflect the data that has been entered by the user.
