1. Lap joint with deflectable plate that controls the spew of adhesive

2. A guidewire lumen extends through the elongated shaft and deflectable tip portion.

3. A strain gage is mounted on each deflectable portion to measure the weight of the seat occupant.

4. Method and system for varying a speed of a motor using a bi-directional deflectable resistor

5. The centralized working channel with the support of the deflectable electrohydraulic tip allows access to all locations in the colon.

6. Said microphone component comprises an acoustically active membrane (11), which functions as a deflectable electrode of a microphone capacitor, a stationary acoustically permeable counter element (12), which functions as a counter electrode of the microphone capacitor, and means for detecting and evaluating the capacity changes of the microphone capacitor.
