An auxiliary rope knotter includes an interior formed with a first through hole, a second through hole, a first locking groove and a second locking groove which are parallel with each other. In the cross-sectional face of the auxiliary rope knotter, the first center connecting line formed by the first through hole and the second through hole intersects the second center connecting line formed by the first locking groove and the second locking groove, such that the rope is easily knotted by the auxiliary rope knotter.

An apparatus includes a flexible fixation member having a body with a longitudinal extent and a width, the body defining a plurality of openings through the body, each of the plurality of openings formed substantially cross wise through the width of the body, and a suture having two terminal ends, the suture being interwoven through each of the plurality of openings in the body of the fixation member such that multiple portions of the fixation member are slidably coupled to the suture and configurable to form a cluster within a surgical site.

In various implementations, a knotting aid may facilitate hand tying of line(s). A knotting aid may include two or more arms extending from a base. A first arm of the knotting aid may include a stationary coupling member and a second arm of the knotting aid may include a sliding coupling member. The coupling members may be able to retain line(s) without substantially damaging the line(s).

An automatic color mix dyeing process includes activating an automatic shaping device to shape an undyed object as a cylinder and tightening same; conveying the undyed object to a dyeing apparatus by means of spraying wherein the dyeing apparatus includes rows of spray devices, dye containers for containing dyes of different colors, each dye container being in fluid communication with the row of spray devices, a pump for moving the dyes in the dye containers to the rows of spray devices, and a control device for controlling the rows of spray devices to control a spray sequence, a spray time, and a spray quantity of dye; conveying the dyed object from the dyeing apparatus to a vapor device for color fixing wherein the dyed object is impregnated with hot vapor to obtain a finished object; cutting the tie ropes; and conveying, washing and drying the finished object.

The fish hook tying tool provides a rotating fish hook holder for a fish hook, and an adjacently mounted cutter for a fishing line, thus providing a combined tool for assisting a fisherman in tying fishing line to a fish hook and the trimming the knot after tying the fishing line. The fish hook tying tool includes a hollow housing having opposed front and rear walls, the front wall having an arcuate slot defined therein. In use, the user slides a lug along a path defined by the arcuate slot to drive rotation of a drive gear mounted within the hollow housing. Manual rotation of the drive gear drives a pinion to rotate, which, in turn, selectively drives a coaxially mounted fish hook holder to rotate with the shank and eye of the fish hook extending away from the tool. An attached clamp secures the tool to a support.
