Abstract: A medical dispensing device which includes a catheter, an applicator tip at a distal end of the catheter, the catheter and the applicator tip defining a lumen having a longitudinal axis and a distal opening, a plunger in the lumen and movable along the longitudinal axis, and a plurality of elements in the lumen proximal to the distal opening and distal to the plunger, the plurality of elements stacked along the longitudinal axis for dispersement of one element at a time through the distal opening via a force applied by the plunger.

Abstract: An improved coil forming machine for spreading a simple coil and forming its end turns into a shape to fit into the slots of a rotor or stator. A carriage is mounted to a support frame for free floating lateral movement. The carriage has two sections which are movable laterally closer together and further apart. Each section carries one of the two clamps at each end of the coil forming machine. A hydraulic cylinder moves the sections apart during the spreading operation and the free floating carriage goes to its equilibrium position at which the forces applied to opposite end turns are always equal.

Abstract: An adjustable flexible form for shaping electrical windings is attached between two end supports. The flexible form can be arched by moving the end supports closest to one another. A twist can be imparted into the arched flexible form by rotation of one or both end supports. Intermediate supports can be adjusted against the form to provide rigidity. Both the selected arch and twist of the form are imparted into an object pulled down and across the form.

Abstract: A power-driven tool for cleaning insulation and corrosion from conductors is portable and applies a controlled pressure established by hand. The tool employs a motor-driven abrasive drum and a pressure pad movable toward and away from the abrasive drum, with the conductor being squeezed between the pad and the drum during operation. A control for the motor is activated by the motion of the pressure pad toward the drum beyond a preestablished point, and an adjustable stop estalishes a minimum spacing between the pressure pad and the abrasive drum. A shroud covers the drum at all points except for an exposed area between the drum and the pressure pad, and a bias spring urges the pressure pad away from the drum to stop the motor upon release by the operator.
