Displays with touch sensing circuitry integrated into the display pixel stackup are provided. Circuit elements, such as touch signal lines, such as drive lines and sense lines, grounding regions, in the display pixel stackups can be grouped together to form touch sensing circuitry that senses a touch on or near the display. An integrated touch screen can include multi-function circuit elements that can operate as circuitry of the display system to generate an image on the display, and can also form part of a touch sensing system that senses one or more touches on or near the display. The multi-function circuit elements can be, for example, capacitors in display pixels that can be configured to operate as storage capacitors / electrodes, common electrodes, conductive wires / pathways, etc., of the display circuitry in the display system, and that may also be configured to operate as circuit elements of the touch sensing circuitry.

A retractable winged I.V. set has a slidable retraction body mounted in a hollow chamber of a housing. The retraction body has a hollow needle fixed in its front end and a tube connector for passing fluid from an external reservoir through the needle. The housing has a pivoting releasable latch preferably configured as dual opposed latches that are biased to normally encroach into the chamber through an opening in the wall of the housing. A catch portion on the retraction body is contacted by an encroaching latch portion to hold the retraction body in an unretracted position with the needle exposed for use. When the latches are released, a spring drives the retraction body to the back of the chamber and withdraws the needle into the housing.

A one-piece LC type optical fiber adapter is provided. The LC type adapter of the present invention has fewer parts than a conventional one. Therefore, it is simpler and easier to assemble the LC type adapter of the present invention. In addition, the main body of the LC type adapter is unitary thereby avoiding the prior art problem that the stresses cause the two halves of the adapter to separate from each other after time.

A tightenable band clamp with a clamping band and a tightening head with two clamping jaws which are a certain circumferential distance apart and which can be moved toward each other by a tightening device. For this purpose, at least one clamping jaw, in the area of its radially inside surface, has at least one projection which extends in the circumferential direction toward the other clamping jaw and which projects into the gap.

The present invention relates to dental apparatus including a fluid reservoir having a connection part, and a fluid reservoir receptor section having a reception part. The connection part includes a cylindrical member, a shaft member slidably arranged through the cylindrical member, and having a channel, a fluid passage defined between the channel and the cylindrical member, and an air passage formed in the cylindrical member for taking external air in. The openings of the fluid and air passages are openable by sliding the shaft member. The reception part includes a passage, a valve in the opening of the passage for taking external air in, and a releaser member for sliding the shaft member to open the openings of the fluid and air passages when the fluid reservoir is installed on the fluid reservoir receptor section.

A contact module includes a plurality of conductive contacts and an insulator retaining the contacts. Each of the contacts includes a contact portion at one end thereof, a terminal portion at the other end thereof, and an intermediate portion extending between the contact portion and the terminal portion. The intermediate portion has a positioning-subject portion. The insulator includes grooves each receiving therein the intermediate portion of the corresponding contact, positioning portions each positioning the positioning-subject portion of the corresponding contact, and retaining portions each retaining the intermediate portion of the corresponding contact. The positioning-subject portions of the contacts are press-fitted into the positioning portions of the insulator so that the contacts are provisionally retained by the insulator. By the use of the retaining portions, the contacts are finally retained by the insulator.
