Abstract: This invention includes a clip having arms which grip living tissue, a press tube serving as a clamping member which is fitted and mounted on the clip to close the arms of the clip, a coupling member which can be inserted into the press tube and engages with the clip, and projections serving as lock portions which hold the arms of the clip in a closed state when the clip engages with the press tube.

Abstract: The present invention has an introducing tube capable of being inserted into a living body cavity, a manipulating wire movably inserted into this introducing tube, at least two or more clips, and a ligating wire causing the clip and the manipulating wire to be engaged with each other wherein, when the clip is ligated, a tensile stress of the manipulating wire is always applied only to the clip located at the most distal end.

Abstract: An ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) bridge device is provided which is capable of removing unwanted ATM network traffic transmitted by a loop packet, of avoiding confusion of a layer 2 network caused by occurrence of erroneous learning, of rapidly identifying a point where a loop has been formed, and of preventing simultaneous formation of loops among a plurality of points caused by loop setting in a plurality of interfaces. The ATM bridge device has functions of learning a MAC (Media Access Control) address of a packet transmitted from the ATM bridge device, of filtering and monitoring a MAC address of a packet input from an ATM network and judges, when receiving a packet output from the ATM bridge device, the input packet as a loop-back packet to scrap the packet and to notify an upper network layer of the loop-back packet.
