  • Publication number: 20060293629
    Abstract: A medical valve includes a housing having an interior forming an inlet and an outlet. A longitudinally movable member is secured within the interior of the housing. External to the movable member and within the interior is a fluid path. Movement of the movable member controls fluid flow between the inlet and the outlet via the fluid path. The outlet produces no greater than a negligible drawback or positive push during withdrawal of a nozzle.

  • Publication number: 20060264841
    Abstract: A medical valve having a close mode and an open mode includes a housing having a proximal end, a distal end, and an interior. The valve also has a valve mechanism within the interior. In illustrative embodiments, the valve mechanism has a gland member and a lifter member. The lifter member moves the gland member toward the proximal end of the housing as the valve transitions from the closed mode to the open mode.

  • Publication number: 20050230185
    Abstract: The present invention teaches a boat trailer ladder which may be easily secured to and moved along the trailer rails. A hook is dimensioned and configured to engage standard boat trailer rails. An A-frame ladder provides steps from an approximately the level of the trailer rails, or in alternative embodiments from approximately ground level, up for a distance above the trailer rails. The extra elevation gained by a user of ordinary size standing on an upper step is sufficient to allow them to reach the top surfaces of the boat.

  • Publication number: 20050165365
    Abstract: A medical valve has an interior flow path having a volume that is substantially the same when in either the closed mode (when the valve is closed) or the open mode (when the valve is open). To those ends, the medical valve has a housing forming an interior, and a valve mechanism (within the interior) having a substantially rigid translating member with a bore. The interior of the housing has a flow path that includes at least a portion of the bore of the translating member. As noted above, the open mode volume is substantially equal to the closed mode volume.

  • Publication number: 20050038397
    Abstract: A gland member within a medical valve is configured to have a substantially consistent or enlarging internal volume as the valve transitions from a closed mode to an open mode. To that end, the valve has a housing forming an interior containing a flow path, and a stationary post member within the interior. The post member has a lumen that is a part of the flow path. The lumen has an opening to the interior of the housing. The valve further includes a gland member circumscribing the post member to produce a variable volume region formed at least in part between the gland member itself and the post member. In addition, the variable volume region is a part of the flow path, while the gland member occludes the post lumen opening when in the closed mode. The variable volume region has an open volume (i.e., when the valve is in the open mode) that is no less than its closed volume (i.e., when the valve is in the closed mode).

  • Patent number: 6491625
    Abstract: The present invention is a cap tester for a water resistant cap for medical video equipment that comprises a neck capable of insertion within the cap. The neck has an air duct extending therethrough. Preferably, the neck further comprises at least one projection extending outwardly from the neck. The projection mates with interior grooves of the cap to releasably connect the cap tester to the cap. A collar extends outwardly beyond the neck to provide a cover to the neck upon insertion into the cap. A conduit extends above the collar and substantially aligns with the duct within the neck that may be connected to a positive air supply. Thus, upon placing a cap tester within the cap, the method of the present invention comprises pressurizing the cap and cap tester, submersing the cap and cap tester in liquid and observing the immersed cap and cap tester for air bubbles thereby indicating a leak in either the cap frame or any seal located therein.
