  • Patent number: 11384813
    Abstract: A clamping device (1), for coupling a sensor cable (2) to an electrical contact, has a circumferential, elastically deformable frame (3). The frame has an outer surface (5), an inner surface (6) facing an inner area (4), a first end face (7) and an opposite second end face (8). A contact device (9) is held at the frame and extends into the inner area. A counter-holding device (10), at the frame, has a counter-holding element (11). The contact device and the counter-holding device form a receiving space for holding the electrical contact in a holding position. A relative movement into a first released position is brought about by a pressing on both sides from the outside against the outer surface on a first frame axis (12). A second released position is provided by pressing on both sides against the frame outer surface on a second frame axis (13).

  • Patent number: 8361107
    Abstract: A sphygmomanometer cuff is provided for measuring the blood pressure over a blood vessel. The sphygmomanometer cuff has at least one inflatable cuff part (3), which can be filled with a fluid for exerting pressure on the blood vessel, wherein the inflatable cuff part (3) has different widths at at least two points (I, II) along its longitudinal direction.

  • Patent number: 8112140
    Abstract: A device for detecting and transmitting electrical pulses from the body surface of a patient to device processing the electrical pulses. The device for detecting includes at least two electrical leads of different lengths, at least one electrical insulating material surrounding the at least two electrical leads, a connecting port for connection to the device for processing the electrical pulses at one end of the at least two electrical leads and a recess in the electrical insulating material of the at least two electrical leads, so that an electric contact can be established with the skin surface of the patient. The two leads of different lengths have a ratio of the electrical resistance to the length of the leads and/or the ratio of the impedance to the length of the leads that is/are greater in the shorter lead than in the longer lead.
