  • Publication number: 20230165615
    Abstract: Presented herein are torque limiting drive tools for use with, for example, components of a medical device. A torque limiting drive tool in accordance with aspects presented herein comprises an elongate handle/body and a plurality of torque arms located at a distal end of the handle, where the plurality of torque arms define an opening configured to longitudinally (axially) receive a drive bit. The plurality of torque arms are each directly mechanically attached to the handle and are configured to exert a torque on the drive bit in direct response to rotation of the elongate body in each of a first direction of rotation and a second direction of rotation.

  • Patent number: 9549477
    Abstract: The invention relates to a housing for electronic components with the housing comprising at least a front housing part and a rear housing part. The front housing part and the rear housing part are arranged to be sealed by means of a sealing gasket upon attaching the front housing part to the rear housing part. The housing comprises at least one ventilation opening to prevent build-up of negative pressure inside the housing, where the ventilation opening is covered by a protective covering comprising a through opening. The through opening is arranged to allow water to flow through the through opening, thereby preventing a build up of pressure inside the protective covering. A method for manufacturing a housing according to the invention is also disclosed.
