20140202980 | LIQUID CONTAINER WITH PREDETERMINED BREAKING POINT - Liquid container with a predetermined break point ( | 07-24-2014 |
20130264749 | SURFACE MODIFIED UNIT CELL LATTICE STRUCTURES FOR OPTIMIZED SECURE FREEFORM FABRICATION - Aspects of the present disclosure relate generally to preparing models of three-dimensional structures. In particular, a model of a three-dimensional structure constructed of porous geometries is prepared. A component file including a porous CAD volume having a predefined portion of a boundary. A space including the porous CAD volume is populated with unit cells overlapping the predefined portion of the boundary. The unit cells are populated with porous geometries having a plurality of struts having nodes on each end. At least a first strut overlaps the predefined portion of the boundary and has a length, a first node outside the porous CAD volume, and a second node inside the porous CAD volume. All struts entirely outside the porous CAD volume are removed. After removal of the struts entirely outside the porous CAD volume, each of the remaining struts is connected to a node at each end thereof. | 10-10-2013 |
20130211535 | FEMORAL PROSTHESIS WITH AN OFFSET HEAD - A femoral prosthesis has a stem part and a head part, in which the stem part has a body section for location in the femur of a patient and a neck section including a trunion or spigot. The head part has a bearing surface formed as part of a sphere and a reverse side. The bearing surface has a polar axis extending through a center of the sphere formed thereby. A bore is provided in the reverse side adapted to receive the spigot wherein the bore comprise a bore axis, and in which the bore axis is oblique to the polar axis. | 08-15-2013 |
20130060252 | SURGICAL SAGITTAL SAW BLADE ASSEMBLY FORMED BY PUNCHING A PIVOT BOSS FROM ONE OF THE STATIC PLATES OF THE ASSEMBLY - A surgical sagittal saw blade assembly formed that includes a static bar, an oscillating blade head and at least one drive rod that reciprocates to oscillate the blade head. The bar is formed from two plates. A boss is pouch formed to extend up from one of the plates. The boss serves as the static pivot point around which the blade head oscillates. When the plates are secured together to form the bar, the top of the boss is welded to the inner surface of the second plate. | 03-07-2013 |
20100262148 | SURGICAL SAGITTAL SAW BLADE WITH SPACED APART TINES FROM WHICH THE BLADE TEETH EMERGE AND RECESSED WEBS THAT EXTEND BETWEEN THE TINES - A sagittal saw blade with a blade body the distal end of which has spaced apart tines. Plural teeth extend forward from each of the tines. The void space between the tines functions as a chip catchment into which bone chips formed by cutting by the blade are able to flow. At least one web extends between the tines, across the chip catchment. | 10-14-2010 |
20090182338 | METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A SURGICAL SAW BLADE WITH A BLADE HEAD AND RAISED BOSS AROUND WHICH THE BLADE HEAD PIVOTS - In a method of assembling a surgical saw blade assembly with an blade bar that contains an oscillating head, the blade bar is formed from opposed plates. One of the plates is punch stamped to define a boss around which blade head pivots. The plates are secured to one another in a series of steps in which spaced apart sections of the plates are welded together. | 07-16-2009 |
