Abstract: The present disclosure provides at least one hemostasis valve, an introducer, and a retrieval device. The hemostasis valve may include a sealing member, a pressing assembly and a rotary motion assembly. The sealing member may be configured to define a sealing cavity which is transversely contractible. The pressing assembly is disposed at an outer periphery of the sealing member. The pressing assembly is configured for linear motion in a transverse direction of the sealing cavity to change a dimension of the sealing cavity. The rotary motion assembly is coupled to the pressing assembly, and the rotary motion assembly may be configured to convert rotary motion into the linear motion of the pressing assembly through the coupling. The hemostasis valve of the present disclosure can perform active hemostasis sealing for one or more medical devices and is convenient to use.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a driving handle, an apparatus and a method for recapturing an implant. The driving handle for recapturing an implant comprises: a first slider and a second slider, the first slider and the second slider being distributed in a longitudinal direction; a fixing barrel which defines a tube passage that receives the first slider and the second slider; a movable barrel which sleeves on the fixing barrel; wherein the movable barrel is configured to move spirally along the fixing barrel during at least a portion of a stroke to drive the first slider and the second slider to move synchronously and linearly along the tube passage. The present disclosure can alleviate the technical problem of difficult recapturing operation due to relatively high resistance when recapturing the implant.

Abstract: Some embodiments relate in part to endovascular prostheses and delivery catheter systems and methods for deploying same. Embodiments may be directed more specifically to graft bodies having self-expanding members, including inflatable graft bodies, and catheters and methods for deploying same within the body of a patient.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for moving aliquot samples of fluid using a shuttle valve are disclosed.

Abstract: A multiple dial lock includes reset dials rotatable around a lock shaft. Each reset dial must be at a specific angular position for a user to unlock the lock or reset the combination. Each reset dial has a magnet. A master key includes sensors, each in communication with one signal. Each of the signals indicates to a user that a respective magnet is adjacent a respective sensor, thus assisting a user in recovering a lost combination. A rotary lock includes a dial which rotates a drive cam, which in turn rotates several wheels to their unlocking positions. One magnet for each wheel is provided on the drive cam. Each magnet communicates with one sensor provided on a master key, which also includes signals, indicating that a respective magnet is adjacent a respective sensor, thus assisting a user in recovering a lost combination.

Abstract: A multi-position micro-fluidic valve system that includes an actuator assembly with a housing and a drive shaft rotatably disposed in the housing for rotational displacement about a drive axis thereof. One end of the drive shaft is configured to couple to a drive motor for selective rotation of the drive shaft about the drive axis. One of at least two different multi-position fluid valve devices can be removably mated to the actuator assembly. Each valve device is configured for rotational movement of a corresponding valve shaft about a valve rotational axis thereof between a plurality of discrete fluid distribution positions. A coupling device selectively and removably mounts the valve shaft of the respective valve device to the drive shaft of the actuator assembly. This enables selective positioning of the multi-position fluid valve device at a discrete one of the plurality for discrete distribution positions.

Abstract: A liquid dispensing system is provided for automated dispensing of a plurality of liquid reagents into a recreational body of water. The liquid dispensing system includes a cartridge apparatus defining a cavity, and a cartridge front wall. A plurality of liquid reagent containers are included, each containing a respective liquid reagent and each being disposed in the cavity in a manner permitting access to each respective liquid reagent through the front wall. A docking assembly is provided having a dock manifold device, and is releasably coupled to the cartridge apparatus between a first condition and a second condition. In a first condition, the cartridge apparatus can be removably coupled to the docking assembly, while in the second condition, the cartridge apparatus is lockably mounted to the docking assembly in a manner permitting fluid communication through the cartridge front wall from the respective reagent container to respective fluid passages of the manifold device.
