Abstract: A guidance system, a method and a device for dynamically guiding a surgical needle catheter onto an organ to be surgically operated of a patient. In particular, the disclosure relates to a guidance system, a method and a device to aid in the percutaneous kidney puncture.

Abstract: Device and operation method thereof for laser skin treatment of skin features extending along a path, in particular veins, by collaborative motion between an operator and a robotic support, comprising: a skin, in particular vascular, further in particular vein, treatment laser head having a laser beam target line, and a robotic support of said laser head; further comprising, attached to the laser head or to the robotic support where the laser head is supported: a camera for capturing skin surface images, one or more handles for handling by the operator, a force sensor for sensing the intensity and direction of force applied to the handle or handles by the operator for controlling the robotic support, and an electronic data processor configured for carrying out the steps comprising: capturing an image of skin surface comprising a skin feature to be treated; identifying, from said captured image and proximal to where the laser beam target line intersects the skin surface, the path of the skin feature to be trea

Abstract: Disclosed is a prop head for connecting a formwork prop to an elevated concrete slab formwork waler table or the like; said waler table having a plurality of support beams having a cavity or gap space adapted to receive an upper part of said prop head, said table being adapted to receive a bolt across said gap or cavity; wherein said prop head has: a central plate having a front end, a rear end and two sides, said sides having downwardly projecting lower L-shape angle brackets therefrom, said brackets being adapted to receive the top of said prop in a horizontally sliding manner from said front end; a downwardly projecting stop wall from the rear end of said central plate, adapted to abut the upper part of said prop; an upper turret, rising from said lower plate, adapted to fit in said cavity or gap space; and having one or more laterally located slots or holes adapted to correspond with the position of complementary holes or slots in said support beams; and a hole or slot in said central plate adjacent said

Abstract: A user wearable device may be implemented with a light source to provide illumination to an area of interest. In one example, the light source may be selectively operated by switches, physical displacement (e.g., movement) of the device, or other approaches. In another example, the device may be implemented as a wristwatch to display time, date, or related information to a user. In another example, the device may be implemented with appropriate processing or communication components to perform other tasks. In other embodiments, various methods of using, operating, or manufacturing such devices are provided.

Abstract: A tag clip is disclosed having a first and second section, the second section having a channel therein for securing a tube or wire. The channel includes resilient support arms extending inward from the channel sides which flex inward upon the forced entry of a tube or wire into the channel. The clip first section folds over and is secured onto the clip second section, pushing the tube or wire into the channel, further flexing the resilient support arms inward with minimal deformation of the tube or cable therein. The equal and opposite forces provided by the first section contact with the tube and the resiliency of the flexible arms allow the tag to be secured to the tube or wire while at the same time allow for the tag to be moved into different positions along the length of the wire or tube. The tag has a rigid molded plastic member that provides the medical personnel or health care providers a substantially stiff or hard surface so that they can write legibly thereon.

Abstract: An assembly and associated system for assuring that one or more freight or cargo carrying pallets are secured to a supporting surface in the cargo or storage area of an aircraft. The assembly including a plurality of spaced apart tracks fixedly mounted to the supporting surface, and disposed in underlying, supporting relation to the pallets. A plurality of locking assemblies, are provided and structured to removably but lockingly engage the tracks at strategic positions immediately adjacent peripheral portions of the pallets. Each of the locking assemblies are selectively oriented into a locked position which retains and lockingly secures the pallets in a preferred position relative to the plurality of tracks on which they are disposed.
