  • Publication number: 20210068800
    Abstract: A disposable device for tissue retraction, including first and second elongated curved members, each having respective proximal and distal ends, a hinge pivotably connecting first and second elongated curved members, wherein first and second curved members curve away from one another, a first blade extending from the distal end of the first elongated curved member, and a second blade extending from the distal end of the second elongated curved member. The device further includes a first latching portion extending from the proximal end of the first elongated curved member, a second latching portion extending from the proximal end of the second elongated curved member, and a third bladed elongated member lockingly engageable to the hinge. The first and second latching portions are lockingly engageable. The retractor is made of a generally electrically insulating nonmagnetic radiolucent material.

  • Publication number: 20200077997
    Abstract: A generally wishbone-shaped disposable radiolucent retractor, including a transverse portion, a first leg extending from the transverse portion, a second leg extending from the transverse portion, wherein the first and second legs define a plane, a first plate operationally connected to the first leg and spaced from the transverse portion, and a second plate operationally connected to the second leg and spaced from the transverse portion. The first and second leg define and angle of about 35 degrees. The retractor is made of a generally electrically insulating nonmagnetic radiolucent material, such as nonporous medical grade thermoplastic resin.

  • Patent number: 8580044
    Abstract: A system and method for semiconductor processing chamber includes a housing that can cover an annular gap of a pedestal well of the semiconductor processing chamber. A cleaning nozzle is removably coupled to a compressed dry air (CDA) supply. The cleaning nozzle can inject the CDA into the pedestal well while the housing can contain a byproduct dust agitated by the injected CDA. The byproduct dust is evacuated by at least one vacuum port that is removably coupled to a vacuum source.

  • Publication number: 20130038724
    Abstract: A surveillance camera arrangement includes a camera assembly that is tiltable about a tilt axis and that has a first electrical connector. A flat cable includes first and second opposite ends connected to the first electrical connector and to a second electrical connector, respectively. The cable has a thickness, and a width at least twice as great as the thickness. The cable is bent into a J-shape wherein the width direction of the cable is substantially parallel to the tilt axis of the camera assembly.
