Abstract: This application relates to operating tables and accessories designed to facilitate surgical procedures on a limb, especially, but not exclusively, orthopaedic procedures involving the distraction, dislocation or replacement of a joint. A such accessory includes a table-mounted component (200) including a patient support (103) and a floor-standing component (200) including an articulated limb support beam (205). Cooperating locating features including a notch 118 and guide channels (217) on the two components locate the components relative to each other. They are designed so that with the patient support (103) supporting at least some of the weight of the patient, the articulated limb support beam (205) is properly positioned to support and manipulate the limb. Moreover, they are so configured as to allow the table to be tilted relative to the floor-standing component (200) while continuing to locate the components relative to each other.

Abstract: A motorcycle grip pad comprises a base layer of elastomeric material having spaced bumps on a top surface. An adhesive layer is on a bottom surface. The area of the pad is between 1000 and 4000 mm2. A motorcycle grip system also includes a reaction patch of relatively rigid material having apertures spaced and arranged in the same way as the bumps on the pad. The patch is adapted for connection to a motorcycle rider's suit or other apparel.
