Abstract: A catheter assembly includes a catheter packaged inside of a handle that is attached to a container. The catheter has a distal end portion that includes a valve. The valve includes a protrusion coupled to an exterior of a distal end portion of the catheter. The handle has a cavity with a flange is formed on an interior surface of the cavity. The flange is sized to engage with the protrusion coupled to the catheter, and the valve of the catheter opens when the protrusion of the catheter contacts the flange.

Abstract: The invention relates to a catheter kit comprising a catheter and a urine bag stored in a package wherein flow is prevented between the catheter and urine bag when stored but enabled when the kit is used.

Abstract: A multi-function electronic device is designed to provide a wide variety of functions. The device consists of two panels attached for relative movement by a hinge. The hinge provides a range of movement of a full 360°. The various functions are accessed by moving the relative position of the panels from 0°, to 165°, to 180°, to 300°, to 360°. Particular functions are correlated to panel orientations which ergonomically suit the selected functions.

Abstract: The invention concerns an LCD connection for a communication unit to connect an LCD to PCB. The connection includes several parts to make the connection between the LCD and the PCB reliable, but still easy and cheap to assembly. It is also easy to dismantle since the connector is neither fixed mounted to the LCD nor to the PCB. The connector includes an LCD covered with an Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) pad, an Anisotropic Conductive Foil (ACF) layer on top of the ITO pad, at least one Double Flexible Printed Circuit (DFPC) located on the ACF layer, a spring connector and a PCB. The invention also includes a method for connecting an LCD to a PCB.

Abstract: A suction pipe for a suction cleaner comprising an elongated pipe having at its lower end, in the in-use position, a coupling stud for a suction mouthpiece, and opposite this end, a flexible suction hose facing to one side relative to the elongated pipe, and wherein the suction pipe further has an upper operating handle arranged above the flexible suction hose in the in-use position. The upper operating handle in the in-use position of the suction pipe is arranged at a distance above the flexible suction hose that exceeds the length of the forearm of the operator, and the upper operating handle is so arranged that it allows it to be seized from that side of the suction pipe on which the flexible suction hose is arranged.

Abstract: A connecting element for coupling of the suction pipe (3) of a suction cleaner to a mouthpiece (2) having a suction sole (9) with an abutment surface (10) and an elongated suction slot which debouches on the abutment surface (10) of the suction sole (9), and wherein the connecting element comprises flexible joints (4, 5, 7, 8) which may transmit an angle change of the suction pipe (3) of the vacuum cleaner about the longitudinal axis of the suction pipe to a rotation of the vacuum cleaner mouthpiece in the plane of the abutment surface (10), and also allows a freedom of movement between the vacuum cleaner mouthpiece (2) and the vacuum cleaner suction pipe (3) whereby the abutment surface may freely assume different orientations relative to the longitudinal axis of the suction pipe. According to the invention the flexible joint has a freedom of movement which allows the suction pipe to be freely movable about an axis (8a) which is parallel with the suction slot in an angle (.alpha.
