Patent number: 7763008Abstract: A method for employing a pre-assembled drainage catheter assembly for the insertion of a drainage catheter percutaneously. The assembly includes a trocar, a cannula, a catheter stiffener, and a catheter. The drainage catheter assembly is operated between a pre-assembled condition, a first step condition and a second step condition. In the first step insertion the trocar and cannula are inserted into a patient's body for obtaining a specimen fluid before the catheter is inserted. In the second step the catheter is inserted for collecting fluid.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2009Date of Patent: July 27, 2010Inventor: Chun Ho Yu

Patent number: 7625355Abstract: A drainage catheter assembly for the insertion of a drainage catheter percutaneously includes a trocar, a cannula, a catheter stiffener, and a catheter. The trocar includes a distal pointed end, a proximal end, a uniform cross-sectional shape between the distal pointed end and the proximal end, and a means located at the proximal end for releasably connecting with a cannula. The cannula may include a distal end, a proximal end, a cannula lumen extending therethrough, and a means located at the proximal end for releasably connecting with the trocar and catheter stiffener. The catheter stiffener includes a distal end, a proximal end, a body portion comprising stiff material, a catheter stiffener lumen extending therethrough, and a means located at the proximal end for releasably connecting with the cannula and catheter. The elongated catheter includes a distal end containing a tapered tip, a proximal end, a catheter lumen extending therethrough, and a means for releasably connecting with the catheter stiffener.Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 2005Date of Patent: December 1, 2009Inventor: Chun Ho Yu

Publication number: 20070209692Abstract: The umbrella having a shaft, a plurality of ribs movably engaged to the shaft, an umbrella cloth having a periphery and an internal surface attached on the ribs, and in addition, a strengthening member in form of a loop operatively associated to the internal surface of the umbrella cloth at a position adjacent to the periphery of the umbrella cloth. The size of the loop is smaller than the periphery of the umbrella cloth such that the strengthening member pulls the umbrella cloth against the ribs when the umbrella is open. The strengthening member reinforces the ribs against the upward force from the wind, and resists the ribs from flexing upward.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 31, 2007Publication date: September 13, 2007Inventor: Chun Ho Yu

Patent number: 6837312Abstract: A novel corer and grinder apparatus suitable for interplanetary travel and extraplanetary operation is disclosed. The corer grinder composes a claw element attached to a shaft coupled to a motor. A second motor compresses a spring forcing against a hammer unit that constitute the majority of the unit's mass. On release the energy stored in the compressed spring converts into momentum of the hammer unit that strikes against the claw element releasing the impact energy directly to the cutting end for cutting. The direction of the energy released is modified by an impact platform to produce a horizontal chipping action to aid cutting. The claw element further comprises a pair of semi-cylindrical claw elements that separate upon rotation of the shaft in a first direction, easing collection of core samples. The semi-cylindrical claw elements join upon rotation of the shaft in the opposite direction, thereby grasping the core sample during removal from the material being sampled.Type: GrantFiled: May 8, 2002Date of Patent: January 4, 2005Inventors: Tze Cheun Ng, Kai Leung Yung, Chun Ho Yu, Chiu Cheung Chan
