  • Publication number: 20250049467
    Abstract: A method of suturing a trocar path incision in a tissue of a patient with an obturator includes inserting the obturator through the tissue such that a shaft of the obturator extends through a tissue opening about the trocar path incision and a distal tip of the obturator is positioned within a cavity of the patient. The method also includes directing the suture via a suturing feature with the obturator inserted through the tissue in order to direct the suture relative to the tissue. Furthermore, the method includes closing the tissue opening about the trocar path incision with the suture.

  • Patent number: 4220235
    Abstract: A vending machine control circuit which at relatively low cost effectively provides a lockout arrangement which ensures the delivery of only one article per money insertion and which allows alternate selection of articles when one selection is stalled or jammed. The circuit arrangement requires only two cam-operated switches per product selection, and has a single credit release relay common to all product selections. The credit release relay is energized when a vend relay is energized as the result of money insertion, and a time delay circuit is provided for maintaining energization of the credit release relay after the vend relay is de-energized near the beginning of a product vend cycle.
