International Classification:

G02B 606

US Classification:

385117, 600160

Abstract:

A wide-view endoscope comprising a rounded body having an inner surface, a proximal end and a distal end, at least one lens element having an outer surface, a plurality of gaps formed by the inner surface of the body and the outer surface of the lens element, where at least one of the gaps is disproportionate in size by comparison to the remaining gaps, and at least one conduit for the transmission of light from an external light source to a visualized object, the conduit being disposed of in the gaps. Whereby, light is asymmetrically transmitted to the visualized object and the visualized object has a three-dimensional appearance that is produced through the shadowing resulting from the asymmetric transmission of light to the visualized object.

Quickie, Inc. - New York NY

International Classification:

A61F 224

US Classification:

623 24, 606 232, 623 241

Abstract:

The present invention provides a suture-terminating device comprising a central body having at least one surface, a plurality of flanges extending radially from the surface and defining at least one grove therebetween, each flange having at least one aperture axially aligned and spaced away from the base wall, at least one removable member disposed within each aperture, and at least one spring disposed adjacently to the surface and maintained in its activated state by contact with a removable member disposed within the aperture. The grove has a base wall and at least one sidewall. The spring, while in its active state, is positioned adjacent to and spaced from the base wall, defining a gap of sufficient size to permit the passage of at least one suture therethrough. The surgeon actuates the device by withdrawing the removable member from the aperture, thus permitting the spring to return to its resting state within the grove. The spring and the base and side walls cooperate to restrict the sutures movement through the gap.
