  • Publication number: 20240285299
    Abstract: A needle-holder/cutter type surgical instrument includes an articulated end-effector including a support structure including two prongs, a first tip link having an elongated body including an integral first proximal attachment root, a first distal free end and a first gripping surface therebetween. A second tip link has an elongated body including an integral second proximal attachment root, a second distal free end, and a second gripping surface therebetween. A blade link includes an integral third proximal attachment root, an elastically deformable bending body and a cutting edge. The blade link rotates with the first tip link. The first root, the second root, and the third root are arranged axially. A counter-blade surface rotates with the second tip link. The counter blade surface abuts against the cutting edge, bending the blade link axially, so the cutting edge and the counter-blade surface attain a mechanical interference contact to exert a cutting action.

  • Publication number: 20240277370
    Abstract: A surgical instrument includes an articulated end-effector including a support structure, first and second tips having a respective elongated body including a proximal attachment root and a distal free end. The first and second roots are axially adjacent and globally interposed with the support structure. The support structure, and first and second tips are mutually articulated in a common rotation axis defining an axial direction coincident/parallel to the common rotation axis, defining a relative degree of freedom of opening/closing between the first and second tips. The first tip body includes a blade portion with a cutting edge rotating with the first free end. The second tip includes a counter-blade portion rotating with the second free end. The counter-blade portion abuts the cutting edge, elastically axially bending the blade portion. The first and second roots each directly and intimately contact the support structure.

  • Patent number: 11853011
    Abstract: A watch case for a wristwatch including a case middle having a central axis, a case back, bracelet attachment device removably connected to the case middle, and an annular ring rotatably mounted about the central axis of the case middle, the annular ring being provided with mechanical locking device capable, when the annular ring is in a locking position, of cooperating with complementary engagement device arranged on the bracelet attachment device, in order to secure the attachment device to the case middle. The annular ring is held between the case middle and the case back and the mechanical locking device include at least one resilient member, the member being elastically engaged with the complementary engagement device when the annular ring is in the locking position.

  • Patent number: 11714384
    Abstract: The stem-crown of a water-resistant watch case includes a tubular stem inserted into a tubular opening of a middle part of the watch case, and a crown including a first portion connected in part to the stem and a second handling portion. The first portion includes an annular contact surface inclined at less than 90° with respect to a longitudinal central axis of the stem-crown starting from the first portion towards the outside of the second portion. In a rest position, the first portion is in contact against an annular receiving surface of the middle part of complementary shape to one end of the tubular opening towards the outside. The crown further includes a washer under a bearing part of the first portion and contacting the stem, being configured to bear in an annular slot of the middle part between the tubular opening and the annular receiving surface.

  • Publication number: 20230195041
    Abstract: The water-resistant watch case includes at least one crystal mounted on an upper side of a middle, a fastening gasket being disposed between an upper annular inner wall of the middle and an upper annular outer wall of the crystal. The crystal includes an annular peripheral surface below the upper annular outer wall inclined at a defined angle smaller than 90° in relation to an axis perpendicular to a plane of the watch case to come into direct contact against an annular inner surface of the middle inclined at an angle similar to the inclination of the annular peripheral surface and below the upper annular inner wall of the middle. The annular peripheral surface and/or the annular inner surface of the middle comprise a domed contact portion for a contact on an annular contact line between the two surfaces.
