Systems and methods for separating an object such as a pacing lead from a patient tissue involve a flexible and torqueable shaft having an internal lumen sized to receive the object, and a hard separating mechanism for separating the object from the tissue. Typically the shaft and separating mechanism are advanced along or toward the object, and the separating mechanism is contacted with the tissue. The shaft is rotated to effect separation between the object and the tissue. The systems and methods are well suited for use in cardiac pacing or defibrillator lead explant procedures.

A hole punch device that reduces the force required to create a hole in papers or other sheet media. A punch element of the hole punch device includes a locally sloped or indented floor to create a bend in the sheet media as it is punched to create an enlarged, oval hole. The punch pin may include an expanding sleeve surround the pin that forms a larger diameter during the cutting stroke and springs back to a smaller diameter during a pull out stroke. A coiled torsion return spring is positioned remotely from and non-coaxially with the punch pin. A keyed pin and support frame arrangement ensures a predetermined rotational orientation of the pin for sequential cutting for reduced cutting force. A long lead-in surface in the frame helps installing sheet media into the feed slot of the punch element.

The present invention is directed towards the holding of medical devices during manufacture to enable the application of therapeutic and / or protective coatings. More specifically, the present invention provides medical device holders that securely retain stents and other medical devices during the application of a coating while minimizing compressive and tensile forces applied to the stents. The invention avoids disruptions to coating quality due to holder blockage during coating deposition. The invention discloses an improved device containing a mandrel and frame that may improve coating uniformity by eliminating shadowing from the frame of the medical device holder when applying coatings to stents and other medical devices.

An image reader includes: a document transport path that is extended along a horizontal direction when the reader has a first posture and that transports the document; a transport roller that transports the document in the document transport path; a rotation-contact member document path rotating to have a posture in which a contact portion that comes into contact with the document blocks the document transport path and a posture in which the contact portion opens the document transport path; path A rotation center of the rotation-contact member is positioned on an upper side of the document transport path in the first posture and the contact portion projects from the upper side toward a lower side of the document transport path. A center-of-gravity position of the rotation-contact member is on a lower side from the rotation center in the first posture.

A bicycle simulation system that can be easily transported includes a frame, a steering handle operated by a rider, a left-right pair of pedals to be operated by the rider for rotating a flywheel, two front forks for supporting the head tube and a rotatable rear wheel. The rear wheel is grounded on a floor so that it supports the frame, together with the front forks. The bicycle simulation system ensures that the operations of a brake lever are accompanied with the same feeling as that in operating a real bicycle. A brake lever is operated by the rider with a drum brake for frictionally braking the rotation of the flywheel in conjunction with the brake lever. A brake wire extending from the brake lever and is branched into two brake wires, one connected to the drum brake, and the other connected to the rotational sensor.

The invention discloses an oblique type bridge anti-seismic damper and a parameter optimization method thereof, and relates to the technical field of bridge seismic resistance. The parameter optimization method comprises the following steps: establishing a bridge dynamic finite element model, calculating and obtaining a horizontal seismic dynamic response result and a longitudinal seismic dynamic response result of a bridge; optimizing a horizontal equivalent damping coefficient Ct, a longitudinal equivalent damping coefficient C1 and a speed index alpha of the oblique type bridge anti-seismic damper; calculating an oblique included angle beta and a damping parameter C of the oblique type bridge anti-seismic damper; and outputting the equivalent damping coefficient Ct, the longitudinal equivalent damping coefficient C1, the speed index alpha, the damping parameter C and the oblique included angle beta which satisfy the practical bridge design requirement. According to the oblique type bridge anti-seismic damper and the parameter optimization method thereof provided by the invention, when the bridge has a horizontal seismic action and a longitudinal seismic action, the oblique type bridge anti-seismic damper can play a role in damping energy dissipation, so that an effect of using only one set of oblique type bridge anti-seismic damper to control the longitudinal and horizontal seismic actions synchronously can be achieved.
