  • Ratchet and Release Mechanism for Swing Arm of Table Saw
    Publication number: 20160167142
    Abstract: A table saw includes a safety system to protect a user from injury. The safety system detects a sensed condition and rapidly moves a saw blade away from the user. The safety system includes a dual ratchet mechanism to prevent the blade from rebounding back above a work surface after an initial rapid retraction of the blade. The table saw has a swing arm that rotates to move the blade below the work surface. A first ratchet engages a first contact surface of the swing arm after rotation of the swing arm over a first range of angular displacements to prevent counter rotation of the swing arm. A second ratchet engages a second contact surface of the swing arm after rotation of the swing arm over a second range of angular displacements to prevent counter rotation of the swing arm.

  • URETHRA CUFF INCLUDING TUBE
    Publication number: 20160135938
    Abstract: An artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) system that includes a reservoir to hold a fluid, a cuff that includes a pre-shaped spiral tube to be wrapped around a urethra, and a control device to be fluidically coupled to the reservoir and the cuff. The control device regulates transfer of the fluid between the reservoir and the cuff. The cuff receives and dispatches the fluid to expand and contract the pre-shaped spiral tube and to coapt the urethra for continence and open the urethra for voiding.
