Abstract: A medical stapler is provided with a stapler body having a head portion at one end thereof, which drives out medical staples S, and a manipulating lever that can be opened and closed by being turned in a state in which a part provided at the side of the head portion is housed in an accommodating portion of the stapler body. A grip portion opposed to the head portion of the manipulating lever is usually urged in an opening direction in which the grip portion protrudes from the accommodating portion. When a staple S is driven out, the manipulating lever is turned in a closing direction in which the manipulating lever is housed in the accommodating portion. Thus, the staple S is driven out of the head portion. Then, the staple S is put into skin “a” while both sides of a wound are brought toward each other. Thus, the wound is sutured while both tip end parts of the staple are inwardly bent.

Abstract: A water control tubular portion is fixed to the forward end of a discharge hose body. The water control tubular portion is a tubular body or an inverted funnel-like (trumpet-like) tubular body and has water control sections inside it. The water control sections are arranged zigzag so that the amount of discharge of an object (e.g. sewage) becomes as constant as possible and the speed of the discharge can be made slackened. Since the amount of discharge of the object from the forward end of the discharge hose body becomes substantially constant by the water control tubular section and the speed (flow speed) of the discharge is slackened, the forward end of the discharge hose is not fluttered by the pressure of a fluid object (sewage) sent under pressure from a simple toilet device.

Abstract: A surgical staple remover includes a staple supporter which is inserted below side portions of a crown of a surgical staple, which is joined to a skin, to support the surgical staple, a pressing slider which presses the crown of the surgical staple, which is supported by the staple supporter, to deform the surgical staple and to remove the surgical staple out from the skin and moves the surgical staple into a storage portion along a staple receiver which is continuously formed from the staple supporter. The number of the surgical staples inside the storage portion can be reliably and easily counted.

Abstract: A medical stapler is provided with a stapler body 1 having a head portion 3 at one end thereof, which drives out medical staples S, and a manipulating lever that can be opened and closed by being turned in a state in which a part provided at the side of the head portion 3 is housed in an accommodating portion 8 of the stapler body 1. A grip portion 11 opposed to the head portion 3 of the manipulating lever 2 is usually urged in an opening direction in which the grip portion 11 protrudes from the accommodating portion 8. When a staple S is driven out, the manipulating lever 2 is turned in a closing direction in which the manipulating lever 2 is housed in the accommodating portion 8. Thus, the staple S is driven out of the head portion 3. Then, the staple S is put into skin “a” while both sides of a wound are brought toward each other. Thus, the wound is sutured while both tip end parts of the staple are inwardly bent.

Abstract: A breaking means is installed in a stagnant portion of the body of the toilet device. The breaking means has a breaking mechanism unit. The breaking mechanism unit is a cutter mechanism and has cutter members. Each of the cutter members has multiple cutter blades along its rotation axis direction. Cutter blades of adjacent cutter members mesh with each other with a small clearance kept. Because by the action of this cutter member, excrement and others including tissue paper, etc. can be cut out finely and broken, the excrement and others (solids) are made into liquid mixture in this breaking process. Because of liquid mixture, drain takes place easily so that clogging of a drain pipe can be prevented even if hardly soluble matters such as tissue paper are used.

Abstract: This is a portable toilet device. Broken excrement may be certainly drained. Means (40) for breaking the excrement having crushing blades is installed in the stagnant portion (18) of the body (20) of the toilet device, means (200) for sending the broken excrement by compression, which sends compressed air into the stagnant portion (18), and a lid for open and closure that closes the stagnant portion (18) tightly are provided. When treating the excrement after bowel movement, the lid for open and closure is closed and then, by driving the means for breaking the excrement, the excrement is stirred and broken into fragments with the stagnant portion being tightly closed. After breaking the excrement into fragments, compressed air is jetted into the stagnant portion so that a liquid mixture formed by breaking the excrement into fragments can be sent by compression toward a side of drain hose (14).

Abstract: A medical staple is provided with a crown portion 1 and needle leg portions 3 bent to a lower side by way of curved portions 2 on both ends thereof. An open wound is narrowed by striking the needle leg portion 3 into the skin by bending intervals between the center portion of the crown portion 1 and the curved portion 2 by a stapler. First notches 6 are formed at a lower face portion of curved portions on both sides bent by the stapler, and second notches 7 are formed at an upper face portion thereof between the first notches 6 of the crown portion 1 and remote from the two first notches 6, 6 uniformly by predetermined distances.

Abstract: A medical stapler is provided with a sterilized cartridge removably attached to a stapler body 1 and accommodating a predetermined number of staples 9, a driving mechanism for driving a staple 9 supplied to a driving section at the tip of the cartridge, a manipulating lever 2 for actuating the driving mechanism and a counter device 20. The counter device 20 counts the number of staples 9 driven from the driving mechanism and indicates the counted result.

Abstract: A rotary punching device for punching a hole on a sheet includes: a first rotary shaft having an outer peripheral surface; a punch mounted on the outer peripheral surface of the first rotary shaft; a second rotary shaft arranged in parallel with the first rotary shaft, the second rotary shaft having an outer peripheral surface; a die mounted on the outer peripheral surface of second rotary shaft; a motor connected to the first and second rotary shafts to synchronously drive the first and second rotary shafts such that the punch and the die are engaged with each other within a predetermined rotational angle range; a sheet feeding mechanism for feeding the sheet into between the first and second rotary shafts at a constant sheet feeding speed to punch the sheet by the punch and the die; and controller for controlling the rotation speed of the motor referring to the sheet feeding speed.

Abstract: A phase-locked oscillation circuit, which minimizes phase fluctuation of an output clock signal generated by the phase-locked oscillation circuit, is provided. A wavelet filter performs a wavelet converting operation over phase fluctuations of an input reference signal and output clock signal of a phase-locked oscillator. It separates the phase fluctuation into a periodic fluctuation component and a non-periodic fluctuation component, optimizes a gain of the phase-locked oscillator on the basis of the periodic fluctuation component, and optimizes power supply filters of the phase-locked oscillator on the basis of the non-periodic fluctuation component.

Abstract: In a phase-locked oscillating circuit comprising a voltage-controlled oscillator responsive to a control voltage for generating an output signal having an output frequency and a variable gain amplifier having a controllable gain and supplying the voltage-controlled oscillator with the control voltage, a frequency fluctuation detecting circuit detects fluctuation in the output frequency of the output signal to control the controllable gain on the basis of magnitude of the fluctuation in the output frequency of the output signal. The phase-locked oscillating circuit may comprise a reference voltage generating circuit for supplying the variable gain amplifier with a controllable reference voltage in response to the control voltage.

Abstract: A frequency difference detection apparatus includes a first PLL, a second PLL, a first phase difference detection unit, a second phase difference detection unit, a phase difference processing unit, and a frequency difference detection unit. The first PLL detects a phase difference between an input clock and an output clock in response to the input clock and performs control to gradually suppress the detected phase difference to zero. The second PLL detects a phase difference between the input clock and an output clock in response to the input clock and performs control to suppress the detected phase difference to zero at a speed higher than that of the first PLL. The first phase difference detection unit detects a phase difference between the input clock and the output clock from the first PLL. The second phase difference detection unit detects a phase difference between the input clock and the output clock from the second PLL.
