  • Publication number: 20240123198
    Abstract: A balloon has an inflatable portion that forms a tube shape extending in an extending direction in an inflated state, a distal end connecting portion provided to an end portion of the inflatable portion on one side thereof, and a proximal end connecting portion provided to an end portion of the inflatable portion on the other side thereof. At least the inflatable portion includes a plurality of first portions that forms wings in the deflated state and a plurality of second portions that is adjacent to the plurality of first portions in a circumferential direction centered on the center axis. In the process of changing shape from the inflated state to the deflated state, the plurality of second portions moves towards the center axis in advance of the plurality of first portions and thereby forms, in the inflatable portion, indentations recessed toward the center axis.

  • Publication number: 20210113820
    Abstract: A balloon catheter includes an inflatable balloon disposed on a tip-end side of the balloon catheter. The balloon includes: an inflatable straight tube portion; and a tip-end side tapered portion tapered from a tip end of the straight tube portion toward the tip-end side. The balloon catheter further includes a plurality of projections that projects from an outer surface of the balloon and linearly extends along the outer surface. The plurality of projections includes: a first projection disposed at the straight tube portion; and a second projection disposed at the tip-end side tapered portion. At least a part of the second projection in a longitudinal direction thereof includes a high projecting part having a larger projection amount than a projection amount of the first projection.

  • Patent number: 9568073
    Abstract: A belt attachment jig includes a jig body (10) located along a side surface of a pulley (1), and a belt guide portion (15) which protrudes forward in the pulley rotational direction from a contact portion (11) near one end of the jig body (10). The belt (B) is held between the twisting preventing plate (12) which forms the other end of the jig body (10) and the side surface of the jig-attached pulley (1) such that an inner circumferential surface of the belt (B) faces the jig-attached pulley (1). As the pulley (1) is rotated, the belt attachment jig is moved in the pulley rotational direction together with the belt (B) in a manner that makes the belt (B) fitted in the pulley groove.

  • Patent number: 9109661
    Abstract: A belt detachment preventing jig (J1) is used for wrapping a belt around a crank pulley and a compressor pulley, each having a pulley groove, in a tight belt tension by having the belt fitted to the pulley groove of the crank pulley, with the belt looped over the compressor pulley, to prevent the belt from being detached from a belt-entering side of the compressor pulley. The belt detachment preventing jig (J1) is includes a fitting groove (11a) positioned on an outer side surface of a pulley flange of the compressor pulley, and configured to be slidably fitted to the pulley flange of the pulley, and a notch (10b) configured to be fitted to the pulley flange of the crank pulley and prevent the jig (J1) from being driven into rotation by a rotation movement of the compressor pulley.

  • Patent number: 9009936
    Abstract: A belt attachment jig includes a jig body positioned such that a side surface faces a side surface of a pulley, and a belt guide portion located at one end of the side surface of the jig body and protruding along a circumference of the pulley, and having, in a surface on a base side, a holding surface for holding a belt. The belt guide portion being configured to guide the belt onto the holding surface and lead the belt out to a lateral side of the pulley, when fitted in a pulley groove of the pulley. The holding surface has a top at a portion on a side closer to the jig body, and is tilted obliquely downward in radial directions from the top and is curved in an inverted U shape along a lead-out direction of the belt so that an inner circumferential surface of the belt faces the jig body.
