  • Patent number: 12239392
    Abstract: Surgical tools and robotic systems adaptable for treating a left side or a right side of a patient with minimal interference with the patient and surrounding operative site are disclosed. In some embodiments, a surgical tool can include a body, an end-effector, a first connector, a second connector, and a third connector. The end-effector can extend from a distal end of the body and be movable relative to the body about a pivot axis. The first connector can rigidly secure the body to a planar mechanism. The second and third connectors can rigidly secure a distal part and a proximal part of a tracker, respectively, to the body. The first and second connectors can be symmetrical to each other with respect to a plane including a longitudinal axis of the body and the pivot axis and can be suited for attachment of either the tracker or the planar mechanism.

  • Patent number: 10830184
    Abstract: A control diaphragm for controlling fuel supply in a carburetor of an internal combustion engine includes a functional region enclosing a sensing region concentrically and a peripheral fastening border for fastening the control diaphragm in the diaphragm carburetor. The control diaphragm closes a control chamber of the diaphragm carburetor and is operatively connected via the central sensing region to a control lever in the control chamber and senses the axial deflection of the sensing region in a manner dependent on operation-induced pressure change in the control chamber. The control diaphragm consists in one piece of temperature-resistant and fuel-resistant, non-elastomeric plastic and the functional region is configured by way of a multiplicity of concentric corrugations. The outermost corrugation directly adjoins the fastening border, and the radius of the outermost corrugation corresponds substantially to the radius of the control chamber.

  • Patent number: 10233870
    Abstract: A control diaphragm for controlling a fuel feed in a diaphragm carburetor of an internal combustion engine, includes a central, substantially flat feeling region, a functional region circumferentially extending around the feeling region in a concentric manner, and a peripheral fastening border for fastening the control diaphragm. The control diaphragm closes off a control chamber of the diaphragm carburetor in a sealing manner in the installed state and is operatively connected by the central feeling region to a controlling lever of the diaphragm carburetor arranged in the control chamber, which controlling lever feels the axial deflection of the feeling region in accordance with an operating-related pressure change in the control chamber.
