Abstract: A structure of overhead lamp and mounting bracket for constructional vehicle has developed to tilt the illuminating angle by controlling the position of slits at the lateral sides of bracket. The lamp is securely fixing at the controlled position at one of 4 positions and the position controlling slits. The main case is securely fixed to the bracket by installing a connection screw and a hinge bolt for restricting unwanted rotation of the hinge bolt. Accordingly, since a position controlling rib having a position controlling slit is extended rearward from side supporters, the illumination angle can be controlled within a greater range. The main case can be supported at 4 points through the plurality of position controlling slits. Furthermore, by fitting the connection screw with an outer circumferential recess of a hinge bolt fastening lever, rotational separation of the hinge bolt and change of the illumination angle of the main case can be prevented.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for manufacturing a balloon catheter in which a non-contact type laser perforator and printer are separately provided above a primary extruder such that inflation apertures can be uniformly perforated through a non-vulcanized lumen tube and simultaneously, tube cutting positions can be printed on the lumen tube at positions uniformly spaced apart from the inflation apertures without stopping a primary extrusion process. Also, a bond preventing agent layer is coated on the lumen tube at balloon inflating portions prior to cutting the tube, to facilitate a secondary extrusion of the tube. With this configuration, continuous and accurate perforation of inflation apertures is possible and automatic tube cutting can be achieved based on the printed tube cutting positions. Also, the present invention can compensate for a time delay due to a bond preventing agent application process and achieve high productivity and minimized loss of material.
