AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The invention relates to an improved mechanism used with two different parts on a button or switch that can lock together securely when they are pressed downward by users' fingers without being easily dislodged from their hands during use. This makes it easier for people who have trouble typing because there will always come across any difficulty where pressing one part causes them accidentally activating other buttons while still having control over how much pressure was applied through these keys.

Problems solved by technology

This patent describes various technical solutions related to improving the stability and accuracy of medical procedures involving implanted objects like catheters and wires. These techniques involve attaching them securely onto the object without causing damage themselves while also allowing easy removal after use. Additionally, they should allow for quick assembly/disassembly even under difficult conditions where it could harm healthy individuals nearby.
