  • Patent number: 6494886
    Abstract: A surgical clamping device comprises a first jaw and a second jaw, with a self-locking surgical fastener mountable thereon. The jaws have at least a first closing configuration and a second closing configuration, the first closing configuration designed to reduce a lateral dimension of a clamping device with mounted fastener, without thereby engaging locking devices on the selflocking surgical fastener, the second closing configuration designed to cause an engagement of the self-locking devices, thereby allowing a demounting of the fastener and a permanent disposition thereof in tissue. In a first closing configuration an approximation of the jaws in a transverse plane thereof is accompanied by an out-of-plane movement, comprising translation, or rotation about an axis in the plane, the rotation in turn comprising twisting—rotation about an axis essentially parallel to a longitudinal axis of the jaws, or skewing—rotation about an axis essentially perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the jaws.

  • Patent number: 6483423
    Abstract: In a vehicle-use cooling fan driving apparatus, a circuit is connected to a drain terminal of a driver transistor in order to sense a current of two motors which are connected in parallel. The circuit amplifies voltages of the terminal and source terminal of the driver transistor by the amount of the forward voltage of a diode. A power source is provided for supplying a current in order to amplify a voltage by the amount of forward voltage of the diode. The transistor prevents the amplified signal from being input to a microcomputer during an off-period of the transistor. A trouble-sensor compares the current value of the motors with a reference value with respect to a corresponding pulse width modulated signal so that trouble occurring in either of the two motors can be sensed so as to prevent an overheating of the motors.
