20080286591Laminate electrical insulation part - This invention relates to a laminate electrical insulation part for an electrical device comprising a thermoplastic film positioned between, adjacent to, and attached to two nonwoven sheets. Each of the nonwoven sheets consists of multicomponent polymeric fibers comprising at least a first polymer and a second polymer, the first polymer having a melting point that is at least 15 degrees Celsius lower than both the melting point of the second polymer and the melting point of the thermoplastic film, and the film is attached to the nonwoven sheets by the first polymer in the nonwoven sheets. The electrical insulation part has a breakdown voltage of at least 3 kilovolts, and a surface having a dynamic frictional coefficient of 0.25 or less. This invention also relates to an electrical device component comprising the laminate electrical insulation part.11-20-2008

20080287923Loading a Tissue Closure Device onto a Delivery Device - A compression tool is configured to compress one or more components of a delivery device, such as a closure element and one or more flanges of a pusher tube. The compression tool includes clamping means configured to close or release with rotation of actuating means (e.g., rotating means). In a closed position, the clamping means can sufficiently compress the one or more components of the delivery device so that a technician can easily position a garage tube about the compressed delivery device components. The assembled delivery device (or assembled garage tube) can then be removed from the compression tool upon reverse rotation of the actuating means, and subsequent opening of the clamping means.11-20-2008

20090006968System, computer-implemented method, and removable computer-readable medium with software for creating and displaying dynamically and automatically in real time a transient themed digital multimedia slide show presentation - A system, computer-implemented method and removable computer-readable medium with software for creating and displaying automatically and dynamically, in real time, from image and audio files stored on the removable computer-readable medium, a transient themed digital multimedia slide show presentation on a computer or other playback device. The only user preparation required is in the selection and transfer of the image and audio files to be used for the slide show presentation to the removable computer-readable medium. Upon insertion of the removable computer-readable medium into the removable media drive of a computer or other playback device, the software launches automatically and begins creating and displaying the slide show presentation with no further effort on the part of a user.01-01-2009

20090312786Guide Sheath Dilator And Method Of Using The Same - The present invention relates to a dilator. The dilator includes a shaft, a lumen and a hub. The shaft has at least two stiffness sections with the stiffness sections becoming less rigid as they approach a distal end of the shaft. The varying stiffness sections allow the dilator to track along the guidewire through torturous vasculature so as the dilator is advanced and the stiffness is changed, the stiffer sheath can advance smoothly through a blood vessel. The dilator may also taper at the distal tip to stretch the initial skin puncture hole larger to accommodate the dilator shaft and ease the sheath tip insertion through to the vasculature. Or the shaft may taper from where it extends beyond the sheath distal tip to the distal end so that it can reach further distal in the vasculature. The dilator may also include an atraumatic tip for easier advancement of the dilator. The dilator distal end may also include one or more radiopaque markers and a shaped distal end.12-17-2009
