A surgical stapling and severing instrument particularly suited to endoscopic procedures incorporates a handle that produces separate closing and firing motions to actuate an end effector. In particular, the handle produces multiple firing strokes in order to reduce the required amount of force required to fire (i.e., staple and sever) the end effector. A linked transmission reduces the required handle longitudinal length, yet achieves a rigid, strong configuration when straightened for firing. A traction biased firing mechanism avoids binding in driving this straightened linked rack in cooperation with an anti-backup mechanism, with a lockout mechanism that prevents releasing the closure trigger during firing. Furthermore, an external indicator gives feedback to the surgeon as to how far firing has progressed, as well as providing a manual retraction capability.

An improved short wire length wire-winding box includes a rotary disk driven by a spiral reed and pivotally installed in a casing having a receiving groove. The communication wire is at first wound around a pivotal shaft (inner circle) for several turns, and then is placed in the rotary disk. The rotary disk is rotated so that the communication wire is wound around a second ring (outer circle) in the same direction. When the communication wire is directly pulled out from the wire-winding box, the communication wire wound around the pivotal shaft will be pulled more and more tightly so that the communication wire wound around the pivotal shaft will not disperse for avoiding the situation that part of the communication wire can not be rewound. Moreover, the communication wire wound around the pivotal shaft can be tightly positioned thereon without any positioning device.

The present invention provides a device for cooking food that has a cooking cavity defined by a front wall, a back wall that opposes the front wall, two opposing side walls, a ceiling, and a floor that opposes the ceiling; a substrate for supporting a food item, the substrate substantially enclosed by the cavity; a first plenum spanning between the two opposing side walls, said plenum comprising a first segment proximal to the back wall, a second segment proximal to the ceiling, and at least one third segment that joins the first segment and the second segment; a second plenum positioned proximal to but medially displaced from the first plenum; a flame heating element located between the first plenum and the second plenum; and at least one air movement device located proximal to a region in which the front wall and ceiling intersect.

A vehicle seat having: a seat cushion and a seat back formed by covering a surface of a seat pad with a top cover member; a plurality of air holes which penetrate the seat pad to reach a surface of the top cover member; a plurality of air outlets which project from a surface of a duct to be connected to the air holes; and an air blower to pressure and feed air inside a vehicle compartment to the air holes through the duct and the air outlets, wherein an engagement portion which projects in a radial direction of one of the air outlets is provided at a tip of the one of the air outlets.

The present invention relates to a light-emitting diode (LED) streetlight structure, which comprises a light-emitting module, a power module, and a lamppost. The light-emitting module is disposed on one side of the power module; the lamppost is disposed on the other side of the power module and corresponds to the light-emitting module. The light-emitting module comprises a light-emitting device and a heat-dissipating base for the light-emitting apparatus to be disposed on. The light-emitting apparatus includes a plurality of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and a plurality of protection devices connected electrically with the plurality of LEDs. The plurality of protection devices are used for protecting the corresponding plurality of LEDs for preventing the situation when the light-emitting apparatus is failed caused by the damage of one of the plurality of LEDs.
