Abstract: A device for repeated intradermal injections within an organic tissue. The device comprises a support defining an internal housing for receiving a vial containing an aqueous solution, a source of pressurized air in fluid communication with the vial, a tube defining a pressurized solution path, a hollow injection needle, an injection head, a driven element with a distal end connected to the injection head, an actuator connected to the driven element, and a valve in fluid communication with the pressurized solution path for controlling a flow of the pressurized solution into the tube from the vial up to the distal end of the hollow injection needle.

Abstract: System and method for converting kinetic energy from a fluid flow into mechanical energy, the method comprising the steps of: a) providing a turbine including first and second hydrofoils, each of the hydrofoils being able to move lin-early in a heaving motion, and being able to oscillate about a spanwise axis in a pitching motion, said heaving and pitching motions being quasi-si-nusoidal, b) coupling the heaving motions of the first and second hydrofoils to the pitching motions of the second and first hydrofoils respectively, with the pitch-heave motion phase being substantially equal to the inter-hydrofoil phase, the heaving motion of one of the hydrofoils thereby driving the pitching motion of the other hydrofoil; and c) transforming the heaving motions of the hydrofoils into a rotational movement of a rotatable shaft, with linear-to-rotary transmission means.
