Abstract: An apparatus for generating and a method for creating the apparatus are disclosed. In an embodiment, the apparatus comprises an element (e.g., a mountain) having a conduit formed therein. The conduit has an inlet and an outlet, with the inlet disposed at a first elevation and the outlet disposed at a second elevation higher than the first elevation. A generator is disposed in the conduit such that fluid moving through the conduit motivates the generator.

Abstract: A surgical retractor is to be mainly used for dissection of the internal mammary artery. It is fixed to the side of the operating bed by a clamp which can be moved over the rail for the desired place. It's pole will be at either side that internal mammary artery is intended to be dissected, side arm of the pole will be over the patient and holding the crank mechanism, by placing the hooks of the retractor at the edge of the sternum after being split at the middle, and cranking the handle. The crank portion of the retractor, which is adjustable over the side arm of the pole, will pull and elevate the side of the chest and hold it in position for the time that is needed for the dissection of the internal mammary artery. Adjustment can be done with the crank part for better vision. After completion, release of the lever would allow the crank mechanism to be turned in the opposite direction, counter clockwise, the cord to become loose and the hooks to be free.
