Abstract: A gutclamper includes two hard rod-like bodies having flexible belts on one ends, a joint at which the rod-like bodies are joined, and at least one through hole made in one of the belts. The gut tract is clipped by using the two hard rod-like bodies and the joint as a pivot. By clipping the gut tract by side surfaces of the rod-like bodies, it can be clipped while the width of the gut is pressed and widened, so that the gut is prevented from being excessively clamped and torn. In addition, the two rod-like bodies are made different in length from each other, a through hole is made in the belt connected to the shorter rod-like body, and the tip end of the longer rod-like body is fit into the through hole and locked, so that reliable clipping is realized without an excessive burden being placed on an operator.

Abstract: A metallic printed board is formed by laminating an insulation layer on the surface of a metallic sheet as a base, and then electronic parts are mounted on the conductor pattern formed on the surface of the insulation layer. A double-sided printed board mounted thereon electronic parts is placed in parallel. Both the printed boards are supported and fixed monolithically by filling the space between the printed boards with an insulation resin and curing the resin. Furthermore, an insulation resin is laminated on the surface of the printed board in such a manner that the resin may cover the mounted electronic parts, and cured. The heat generated from the electronic parts can be efficiently transmitted to the insulation resins by using a resin having a high thermal conductivity for both of the insulation resins, and the heat is then emitted from the surfaces of the metallic sheet or the insulation resin.

Abstract: An inverter device with a circuit for generating pulse width modulation (PWM) signal is formed of an inverter section and a circuit. The circuit includes an U/D counter 4 for regulating a control cycle of a PWM waveform, a register 1C for storing on-timing information of the PWM waveform, and a register 1D for storing off-timing information of the PWM waveform. The circuit is actuated by one of first and second modes. In the first mode, the PWM waveform is outputted by comparing an output of the counter 4 with the respective outputs of the registers 1C, 1D. In the second mode, the counter 4 counts down a signal, and after reaching zero, the counter counts up again, which is made within one cycle and is compared with only the output of the register 1C to output the PWM waveform. In the second mode, the reset level is not calculated, so that load to CPU is relieved, and the carrier cycle is shortened.
