  • Publication number: 20050041084
    Abstract: This patent describes an inkjet printable recording media that dries quickly to produce a waterfast, water-resistant and smudge-resistant print. The media is especially well-suited for the growing field of digital photography where a durable photo-like print is desired, and for high-speed commercial inkjet printing. The invention provides novel coatings, coated media, and methods of use. In particular, the coatings comprise a porous, water-absorbent base coating, a water-resistant ink-receptive coating comprised of nanoparticle-sized pigments, and, optionally, a glossy top coating. The novel coated media comprises an inkjet printable substrate having multiple coating layers, and provides high quality, waterfast images. When used on an inkjet printer, the coated media permits the ink to dry almost instantly to produce a waterfast, high gloss image.

  • Patent number: 5788715
    Abstract: A ligating band dispenser has a plurality of elastic ligating bands at least one of which is supported on each of a series of partially nested cylinders. Inner and intermediate cylinders comprise axially sliding cylinders for dispensing the ligating bands. An outer cylinder,which may be attached to the distal end of an elongated introducer, surrounds at least the proximal portion of the intermediate cylinder and is adapted to receive the sliding cylinders slide into its distal end. A trip wire is connected to the inner cylinder and extends proximally therefrom through the elongated introducer. The trip wire is adapted to cause an axially sliding motion of the sliding cylinders during an application of force to the trip wire. A restraining means is associated with each sliding cylinder to restrain sliding motion thereof during the application of force to the trip wire.

  • Patent number: 4440170
    Abstract: A pistol-type surgical instrument for applying ligating clips to blood vessels and other tubular ducts in remote locations which are substantially inaccessible to conventional forceps-type appliers. Tubular jaw assemblies of various lengths may be mounted on the pistol-grip handle of the instrument, and the mounted jaw assembly is fully rotatable to permit orientation of the clip applying jaws. The jaws are preferably at right angles to the axis of the tubular jaw assembly, but may be slanted forward or rearward up to about 20 degrees.

  • Patent number: 3967574
    Abstract: An apparatus for manually moving and steering a small boat, or the like, in both forward and reverse and all directions, which is mounted on the transom or stern of the boat, having a steering post rotated by a tiller 360.degree. in a horizontal plane, with the tiller mounted for up and down pivotal pumping motion to activate laterally connected blades mounted on the lower end of the steering post, with the blades being horizontally joined for flexible return on the non-power stroke and with no flexing on the power stroke, resembling the action of a duck's foot during swimming, each of said blades having a series of individual windows opening to lessen the resistance or drag on the flexing return or non-power stroke and closing for full resistance on the power stroke.
