US Patent:

45303894, Jul 23, 1985

Filed:

Aug 18, 1983

Appl. No.:

6/524455

Inventors:

Anthony W. Quinn - Westminster CO
Donald S. McKee - Louisville CO
Richard B. Rader - Thornton CO

Assignee:

The Scott & Fetzer Company - Westlake OH

International Classification:

E04F 1006

US Classification:

160 46

Abstract:

A roll control mechanism of a retractable awning assembly includes spring clutches to operatively control the rotation of the roll bar in each of the two opposite rotational directions. Selective locking to prevent unrolling or extension of the canopy in one situation or to prevent the rolling or winding up of the canopy in another situation is achieved. A selector device for controlling the operation of the spring clutches is located on the support arm intermediate the top end connected to the roll bar and the bottom end adapted for contacting a support surface. Control of the roll control mechanism during set-up of the awning assembly is conveniently achieved. A support locking mechanism is also included within the selector device for fixing the length of two telescope support members of the support arm. Fixing the operative length occurs simultaneously as the roll control mechanism is controlled. An improved latching mechanism for connecting the bottom end of the support arm to a vertical support surface is manually actuated to selectively release the pivotable connection of the bottom end of the support arm, includes a shelf-like extension for guiding the support arm guiding end into a latching relationship, and includes a receptacle for receiving an outer end of the brace member to prevent a catch piece of the latching mechanism from disconnecting the bottom end of the support arm.

Abstract:

Photodynamic bone stabilization and drug delivery systems are disclosed herein. In an embodiment, a photodynamic bone stabilization and drug delivery system of the present disclosure includes an insertion catheter having an inner void for passing at least one light-sensitive liquid, and an inner lumen; an expandable portion releasably engaging a distal end of the insertion catheter, wherein the expandable portion comprises an inner expandable portion in communication with the inner lumen of the insertion catheter and sufficiently designed to maintain a light-sensitive liquid therein; and an outer expandable portion, surrounding the inner expandable portion, sufficiently designed to house and release at least one additive from the outer expandable portion in an outward direction from the inner expandable portion; and a light-conducting fiber sized to pass through the inner lumen of the insertion catheter and into the inner expandable portion for delivering light energy to the light-sensitive liquid.
