A nasal assembly for delivering breathable gas to a patient includes a frame having an integrally formed first connector portion. A nozzle assembly includes a gusset or base portion and a pair of nozzles. At least one inlet conduit is structured to deliver breathable gas into the frame and nozzle assembly for breathing by the patient. A pair of second connector portions are removably and rotatably connected to respective first connector portions of the frame and are in communication with respective inlet conduits, e.g., directly or via angle connectors. A headgear assembly is removably connected to the pair of second connector portions and/or the angle connectors so as to maintain the frame and the nozzle assembly in a desired adjusted position on the patient's face.

A respiratory mask for use with a patient, and that is suited for use with children, includes a flexible cushion arranged to interface with and deliver air to the patient's nose. The cushion has a tube connection portion at one or both sides adjacent the patient's nares, the tube connection portion being arranged to connect to an air delivery tube. This location, plus the very low profile of the mask, allows a patient (e.g. an infant) to sleep on their face more comfortably. A more rigid support structure adjacent the cushion is provided to stabilize the cushion and prevent it from collapsing. Headgear is also provided and arranged for releasable attachment to the support structure.

An acetabular prosthesis having an outer member for engaging the acetabulum. The outer member has a part-spherical bearing surface terminating in a distal rim. The rim has a contour such that the portion thereof to be located between the ischium and the pubis extends distally further from an equator of the bearing surface than the contour to be implanted between the pubis and the illium and between the ischium and the illium.

An acetabular shell liner having a variable rim surface geometry, which improves range of motion of the femoral component within the liner and decreases the incidence of dislocation and subluxation, and methods of making and using the acetabular shell liner. Prosthetic devices, more particularly hip joint prostheses, containing the acetabular shell liner having a variable rim surface geometry are also provided.

An endoscope includes an insertion tube having a distal end and an imaging device with a steerable extension. The proximal end of the extension is attached to the distal end of the insertion tube. An endoscope includes an insertion tube having a distal end region and a rear-viewing imaging device at least partially disposed inside the distal end region. An endoscope includes an insertion tube having a distal end cap, an imaging device, and a link that couples the imaging device to the distal end cap of the insertion tube.

A bone resection guide, particularly for an ulna, utilizes anatomical reference points of the ulna to establish an optimal position for a prosthesis. The bone resection guide provides a guiding instrument that allows a surgeon to remove only bone that needs to be removed for precise placement of the end prosthesis. A method of resecting bone from the ulna in preparation of prosthetic implantation using the bone resection guide matches an elbow axis finder with a particular size of an ulna fossa of the patient. Once matched, a sized resection template, directly related to the shape of the prosthesis, is used as a resection guide. Incorporated into the bone resection guide are known anthropometric qualities when providing resection surfaces. This enhances the probable position of the implant.

An adjustable base for attaching a sighting device such as a telescopic sight to a rifle or other ballistic projectile launcher, comprising upper and lower rails pivotally attached at the muzzle ends thereof, is disclosed. Adjustments are provided for altering the angle between the sight and the weapon's boreline or similar axis in elevation in increments of minutes of arc or fractions thereof.

The invention discloses an exoskeleton type upper limb rehabilitation training robot, which includes a base, two mechanical arm assemblies and six motor drive assemblies; the base includes a mobile base, an electrical box, an electric lifting column, a base platform, Motor mounting angle bracket, base rotating motor, coupling, base main bearing seat, base ball screw nut assembly, base nut seat, base common sub-bearing seat, right bracket, base linear guide assembly and left Bracket; the mechanical arm assembly includes a mechanical shoulder belt assembly, a mechanical shoulder joint assembly, a mechanical elbow joint assembly, a mechanical forearm assembly, a mechanical wrist joint assembly, and a mechanical hand assembly; the motor drive assembly includes a motor and a deceleration assembly, a torque sensor assembly and The transmission assembly, the motor and deceleration assembly, the torque sensor assembly and the transmission assembly are all mounted on the same motor-driven base frame. The invention can be worn on the upper limbs of the human body, and can be used to assist the upper limbs of the human body to move in three-dimensional space and carry out rehabilitation training.

An ambulance cot loading and unloading apparatus includes a base for mounting to an emergency vehicle deck and an arm mounted for linear movement along the base, which is configured for engaging an ambulance cot. A drive mechanism is provided for raising the arm, which is configured in the presence of an applied force with a first magnitude on the arm to raise the arm at a first speed and in the presence of an applied force on the arm with a second magnitude greater than the first magnitude to raise the arm at another speed or speeds lower than the first speed.

The invention discloses an elastically-driven modular joint with force feedback control. comprising assembly components such as a motor stator, a motor rotor, a harmonic speed reducer and the like, so that the design flexibility and compactedness of the joint can be increased; and due to the design of an air routing shaft, the joint is convenient to route, so that the joint is more succinct, the moving range of the joint can be preferably enlarged, and the running reliability of the joint can be improved. Due to the introduction of a first absolute type angle sensor and a second absolute type angle sensor, the angle deviation between an output shaft and an output end cover can be obtained, and the angle deviation is multiplied by the elasticity coefficient of an elastic torsion spring, so that a moment value applicable to the joint can be obtained, for an input feedback value of a joint signal; and a reliable moment feedback signal can be provided for the joint, so that the elastic torsion spring can be deformed, the smoothness can be provided for the joint, and an energy storing mechanism can be further provided for the joint, and the elastically-driven modular joint is applicable to a robot, so that the interaction capability between the robot and the environment can be enhanced, and the running efficiency of the robot can be improved.
