Abstract: A neuromodulation therapy is delivered via at least one electrode implanted subcutaneously and superficially to a fascia layer superficial to a nerve of a patient. In one example, an implantable medical device is deployed along a superficial surface of a deep fascia tissue layer superficial to a nerve of a patient. Electrical stimulation energy is delivered to the nerve through the deep fascia tissue layer via implantable medical device electrodes.

Abstract: An in-tank fuel filter for securement to an in-tank fuel pump assembly includes a retaining or mounting ring which is utilized to secure the filter to the fuel pump assembly inlet. The mounting ring includes a collar which is received about the outlet stack of the fuel filter assembly and assists retention of the fuel filter assembly on the fuel pump inlet and maintains a fluid tight seal notwithstanding dimensional changes of the outlet stack occasioned by long term contact with fuel. The fuel pump assembly also includes a depending lug parallel to but offset from the inlet fitting. The mounting ring also includes complementary means to receive and grip the lug, namely, a plurality of resilient fingers arranged in a non-circular, i.e., elongate pattern such as an oval which compensates for inlet fitting to lug spacing variations and retains the fuel filter on the fuel pump assembly during subsequent manufacturing and assembly steps.

Abstract: An electrical power supply which may be used with the electrical system of a motor vehicle. A first input (16) to be connected to a D.C. source (18) and a second input (12) to be connected to an A.C. source (11). The first input provided across a capacitor bridge including an input capacitor (24, 25) and output capacitor (27, 28) in parallel and diodes (23, 26) opposing discharge current from the capacitors to the first input (16). The output (30) is taken across the output capacitor (27, 28). The second input (12) provided in series with the input capacitor (24, 25). The voltage applied to the second input (12) with the charge in the input capacitor raise the charge in the output capacitor (27, 28) providing increased D.C. voltage at the output (30).Preferably, the capacitor bridge is modified to accommodate pairs of input and output capacitors to utilize both cycles of the A.C. source.Preferably a sensing means (29) and control means (54) is provided to control the voltage at the output (30).
