Abstract: An infusion system for delivery of therapeutic fluids from a remote source into a patient's body. The system has an infusion assembly, a rotating pivot joint member, a fluid connector assembly, and a sealing assembly retained within the infusion assembly between the housing of the infusion assembly and the rotating pivot joint member. The seal reduces leakage of fluids. The rotating joint may be pivoted to three distinct positions to allow for emplacement on the patient, delivery of the therapeutic fluid to the patient, and protected, sealed closure of the fluid channels to avoid patient fluid backflow.

Abstract: System for the subcutaneous delivery into the body of a patient of a fluid from a remote vessel. The system includes a main assembly and placement member with a needle. A delivery tube for carrying the fluid is attached at a near end to the remote reservoir or vessel. At removed end, the delivery tube has a needle for engagement with the main assembly. The main assembly includes a rotating member that when the rotating is perpendicular to the main assembly, it will accept the handle and needle for emplacement of the body onto a patient. After the handle and needle are removed, the delivery tube can be attached to the rotating member which can then be rotated down to a position along to and adjacent the skin of the patient. This provides for a flush mounted infusion device.

Abstract: The frame of the automobile vehicle seat back comprises a body extending over a general plane and functional components joined to the body, serving notably to attach or reinforce it. It is made in one piece from an overmoulded plastic material that forms the body, reinforced by a reinforcing strip comprising a woven band of mineral and plastic material fibers, the reinforcing strip extending in the general plane of the frame and interconnecting at least two of the functional components comprising inserts at least partially embedded in the body.

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for cutting of a web (1) conveyed along a conveyance direction (F), and subsequent feeding and threading it up into a processing line, said web (1) comprising a central portion (1c) and edges (1a, 1b), said apparatus comprising central cutting means (2a, 2b) for cutting the central portion (1c) laterally and transversely to the conveyance direction (F) and edge cutting means (3a, 3b) for cutting the edges (1a, 1b) transversely to the conveyance direction (F), said apparatus further comprising edge channels (4a, 4b) for taking up the edges (1a, 1b) into the processing line, said channels being substantially closed and comprising movable lids. The invention also provides a method for threading up a web in a processing line. The invention finally provides edge channels (4a, 4b).

Abstract: A vehicle seat back provided with a television monitor mounted to pivot about an axis that is fixed relative to the seat back through an angular range of not less than 180° between firstly a folded-away position in which the monitor is received in the setback, the viewing screen of the monitor being disposed facing the rear face of the seat back, and secondly an in-use position in which the viewing screen is designed to face a user disposed facing the rear face of the seat back.

Abstract: A segmented vacuum roll comprising an inner assembly on which a plurality of cylindrical sleeve tubes (2a, 2b, 2c) having apertures over their circumference are rotatably and coaxially mounted side by side, each of said sleeve tubes being individually rotatable and one or several first chambers (9a, 9b, 9c) formed in said inner assembly and partly defined by a first portion of circumference of said sleeve tubes, said inner assembly comprising linking channels (6a, 6b, 6c) for linking a vacuum source to said chambers so that said first portion of circumference of said sleeve tubes may be submitted to vacuum. Said inner assembly comprises an inner tube (3), at least one outer tube (5a, 5b, 5c) surrounding said inner tube and a plurality of longitudinal walls extending between said inner tube and said outer tube so as to form longitudinal channels (6a, 6b, 6c).

Abstract: The invention relates to a cutting assembly for use in thin and ultrathin web winding stations. It also relates to a method for cutting a web using this cutting assembly. According to the invention, the web (1) is cut by a blade (30) with a cutting edge transverse to the web transfer direction; the blade moves between a rearward position and a forward position; in the forward position, the cutting edge is substantially parallel to an axis of the roll (7) receiving the web, and the blade is substantially tangent to a surface of the roll. For cutting the web, the blade is moved from its rearward position to its forward position, so that its speed at the time it engages with said web is at least substantially equal to the speed of the web. This ensures a clean and clear cut of the web. At the same time, it ensures that the leading edge of the web is smoothly and evenly placed on the roll, without any creasing nor folding of the web.
