Abstract: A dispensing container for double edged razor blades, the container comprising a storage compartment for a stack of blades and a dispensing opening at one end of the compartment, the opening being defined by portions of a single, integral moulding, which portions are substantially spaced apart in the moulded condition of the moulding, but are relatively movable into a final position in which they are closer together to define the dispensing opening.

Abstract: An enterostomy retainer comprising a rigid cylindrical base portion and a flexible tubular portion extending from a first end of the base portion. The second end of the base portion and the free end of the tubular portion have interconnecting means to facilitate connection of the tubular portion free end to the cylindrical portion second end to form a closed loop.

Abstract: A shaving unit comprises a narrow single edged blade strip and a frame having a support portion having a flat surface to which the blade is permanently secured over its full length.

Abstract: A shaving unit having blade means exposed forwardly of an overlying cap member and rearwardly of a guard member, wherein the blade means and guard member are movable in unison and relative to the cap means against a resilient restoring force in response to forces transmitted to the unit during a shaving operation, to alter the shaving geometry of the unit.

Abstract: A belt and buckle assembly in which first and second ends of a belt are adapted to be interconnected and the belt has means for receiving and releasably retaining a buckle member; and a plurality of buckle members, each having means for attachment to the belt, such that one of a plurality of available buckles may be selectively attached to the belt and subsequently removed and replaced by a second of the buckles.

Abstract: A neurosurgical scalp retractor for use in surgical operations within the skull, the retractor comprising an elongated frame, a first connector member at one end of the frame for attachment to the scalp, an extensible member connected to the frame, a releasable lock for fixing the extensible member in a desired position, and a second connector member disposed at a free end of the extensible member for attachment to an operating table drape.

Abstract: A dispenser for shaving units having blade and guard means permanently associated therewith, the dispenser including storage means for accommodating a plurality of the shaving units, locating means engageable by a razor handle with which the units are to be used, the storage means being movably coupled to the locating means to permit units in the storage means to be brought in turn into a position adjacent a head of the razor handle for transferring a unit from the storage means into engagement with the handle.

Abstract: A shaving unit dispenser including means for locating a razor handle in a loading position in which a shaving unit can be transferred from a storage position in the dispenser to a position of operative engagement with the handle, and latch means which prevents movement of the shaving unit from its storage position, the latch means being operated to release the shaving unit by location of the razor handle in the loading position.

Abstract: The device comprises a substantially rigid member having a rounded first end and a body portion generally circular in cross section and conical in longitudinal section extending therefrom to a second end. The substantially rigid member has on the body portion thereof edge means extending generally longitudinally thereof and adapted to engage the interior walls of an artery, or the like. Upon insertion of the device in an opened artery, the device insures the centering of a catheter attached thereto within the artery, supports the artery walls, upon turning of the device operates by way of the edge means to ream the artery interior, and deflects and guides a penetrating needle point during the patching operation.

Abstract: A holder or key case head for a key case or pouch, the head being so constructed as to render insertion and removal of keys relatively effortless.

Abstract: A dispensing container for razor blade units, the container comprising a plurality of compartments, each compartment adapted to releasably retain a shaving unit.

Abstract: A belt assembly featuring relatively small pieces of material, such as animal skins, comprising a plurality of octagonally shaped pieces attached to a backing strip end-to-end to form a first layer thereon, a second layer attached to said assembly over said first layer in staggered relationship.

Abstract: A dispensing container for shaving units, the shaving units being adapted for engagement with a razor handle, the container comprising a storage compartment for retaining a plurality of the shaving units, a wall structure for receiving and releasably retaining the head of a razor handle adapted to receive the shaving units, and a member facilitating movement of the shaving units out of the storage compartment and into engagement with the razor head, whereby a shaving unit can be withdrawn from the container by withdrawal of the razor.

Abstract: A razor blade unit having a cap portion, guard portion, and a blade member clamped therebetween, the unit further having coupling structure for detachably connecting the unit to a cooperating handle, and adjusting mechanism integral with the unit and operable independently of any cooperating handle for changing the relative positioning of the blade member and guard portion to vary the shaving geometry of the blade unit.

Abstract: A razor blade assembly includes a razor blade shaving unit comprising a substantially rigid member to which a razor blade is secured in a permanent manner with the rigid member having a forward edge providing a guard surface spaced from a cutting edge of the razor blade. The razor blade assembly further includes a connector member attached to the shaving unit in such a manner that the shaving unit is movable relative to the connector member. The connector member is provided with a plurality of surfaces forming channel means longitudinally thereof for receiving supporting surfaces of a holder.
