Vertebral retainer

Vertebral retaining devices and instruments are provided. A retaining device may include a first monolithic body having a first handle and first jaw pivotably coupled to a second monolithic body having a second handle and a second jaw. The first body and the second body may be pivotably coupled to one another at an intermediate region between the respective handles and jaws. In some aspects, the first and second bodies may be polymeric. The first jaw and second jaw may be shaped to provide an access region between the first jaw and the second jaw when the retaining device is coupled to bone fasteners attached to the vertebrae. The retaining device may include a locking assembly coupled to the first handle and the second handle, and configured to retain the first jaw and the second jaw in a spaced relationship relative to one another.

A print head of a continuous ink jet printer comprising: a cavity for the circulation of jets, at least one nozzle for producing at least one ink jet or solvent in the cavity, at least one electrode for sorting drops or segments of one or several of the jets intended for printing from drops or segments that are not used for printing, an outlet slot of the cavity, open onto the exterior of the cavity and allowing the exiting of the drops or segments of ink intended for printing, a 1gutter for recovering drops or segments not intended for printing, a 2gutter for recovering drops or segments that are not deflected and not intended for printing, this 2gutter being mobile and comprising an input slot and at least one suction channel, a motor, to actuate the 2gutter for recovering in movement between a retracted position, in which it does not close off the outlet slot of the cavity, and a closed position, in which its input slot faces the outlet slot of the cavity; a seal between the print head and the 2gutter for recovering in the closed position of the latter.
