Abstract: A fastening clamp for connecting a carrier part (13) and an add-on part (14) has a plug-through leg (1), with a plug-through sleeve (5), and a threaded leg (2), which is connected to a thread unit (10). The plug-through sleeve (5) extends away from the threaded leg (2) and has an effective overall height which is greater than the thickness of an add-on part (14). Engagement elements (11) are present on that side of the thread leg (2) which is directed towards the plug-through leg (1). In a pre-assembly arrangement, the legs (1, 2) are spaced apart by a distance which is large enough to allow a carrier part (13) to be positioned between the legs (1, 2) such that it is essentially free of engagement with the engagement elements (11), in which case, once a screw has been screwed into an end position, the engagement elements (11) thus engage with the carrier part (13) such that the fastening clamp is connected in a non-displaceable manner to the carrier part (13).

Abstract: A clamp includes a clamp body having a spring arm with first and second ends and a deflection arm with first and second ends. The deflection arm is connected at its first end to the spring arm proximate the first end thereof, and the second end of the deflection arm is opposed spatially to a protrusion extending from the spring arm proximate the second end thereof.

The actuating device includes a force-limiting mechanism, which limits the extent by which the second end of the deflection arm is moved away from the protrusion, thereby limiting the maximum circumferential contraction of the spring arm that can be achieved.

Abstract: An attachment system for configured slots which utilizes pivotally opposed major and minor jaws which can be biased in a closed or in an open position. The major and minor jaws are aligned in the receptor cavity of a configured rectangular tube and are actuated to fully and to frictionally engage the receptor cavity. Such actuation also causes outwardly-facing grooves on the ends of the major and minor jaws to engage a suitably-shaped configured slot on a configured tube or other structure. Such preceding action connects a configured rectangular tube and a structure having a suitably-shaped configured slot by the use of the intermediate major and minor jaws. Provisions are also made for snapping engagement of the pivotally opposed major and minor jaws of biased open major and minor jaws with a suitably-shaped configured slot.

Abstract: A medical instrument and its method of use to remove flaps of skin. The medical instrument has the form of a broad faced clamp that has two narrow opposing surfaces. The medical instrument is opened and a flap of skin is placed between the narrow opposing surfaces. The narrow opposing surfaces are biased toward one another with enough force to stop the flow of blood into the flap of skin, The bias between opposing surfaces is maintained over time until the flap of skin dies and withers. Once the flap of skin has died and the blood vessels no longer flow to the flap of skin, the medical instrument is removed. The remaining dead skin is then cut away from the body. The excess flap of skin is therefore removed without ever having produced an open incision that can be contaminated.
