20150066072 | CATHETER LUMEN PARTITIONER - A catheter lumen partitioner and methods for treating aneurysm are disclosed. | 03-05-2015 |
20160000588 | SELF-EXPANDING BIFURCATED STENT - A self-expanding stent is disclosed, the self-expanding stent having a collapsed configuration and an expanded configuration. The self-expanding stent has three stent subunits, each including one or more longitudinally-oriented diamonds and one or more axially-oriented diamonds. The subunits are coupled together at a pivot joint. The longitudinally-oriented diamonds are configured to substantially hold their shape in both the expanded configuration of the stent and the collapsed configuration of the stent. The axially-oriented diamonds are configured to expand from the collapsed configuration to the expanded configuration. Expansion of the axially-oriented diamonds creates angulation between the stent subunits at the pivot joint. Thus, the stent can be inserted into a target location through a tubular catheter, once the stent is no longer constrained by the catheter, it will expand to an angled configuration. | 01-07-2016 |

20080245813 | MULTI-CHUTE GRAVITY FEED DISPENSER DISPLAY - A set of panels having chutes therebetween. The chutes being defined by curvilinear rails on such panels. The curvilinear rails having stops thereon for stopping the products for viewing. | 10-09-2008 |
20090039040 | Product Display System for Packaged Products and Method of Use Thereof - This invention relates to a product display system for packaged products, also known as a merchandiser, for storing and displaying products, and more particularly, to a merchandiser with extendible product drawers that can be pulled out and tilted downwards without the back product pusher to facilitate restocking of products in the merchandiser. The merchandiser includes a pull-out drawer or product holder secured to the shelf and capable of downward rotation in a restocking position by a restrictor means in the form of a U-shaped ring located either on the product pusher or the product holder. The display system further includes a nesting tab for securing the display in the display position on the shelf, and a product pusher in biasing relation with the front edge of the shelf for improved access in the restocking position. | 02-12-2009 |
20090266776 | Dispenser and Display Device - A dispenser and display device for articles on a store shelf includes a pair of vertically disposed panels that define a space there between to guide the articles from an upper portion to a lower portion. A pin extending from each of the panels allows a display assembly, having an access door, a frame, and a card, to movably attach to the dispenser and display device. The display assembly is therefore movable between an open configuration and a closed configuration. The frame is movably connected to the access door such at a volume is defined between the access door and the frame. The volume is configured to complementarily receive the card in order to display advertising indicia disposed on the front of the card. A display panel is also described. | 10-29-2009 |
20130068708 | ERGONOMIC MERCHANDISING SYSTEM - A display apparatus for articles having substantially the same size comprises an inclined structure supporting the articles for sliding forward and rearward movement thereon. A first stop structure prevents forward movement of the articles beyond a first stop point. A second stop structure moves between first and second positions in which it, respectively, stops articles at a second stop point rearward of the first stop point, and permits articles to move forward past the second stop point. The second stop structure is biased so as to move toward the first position, and it moves to the second position when an article is at the first stop point, which allows a rearward article to slide forward past the second stop point. | 03-21-2013 |
20140101979 | DISPLAY END UNIT STRUCTURE - A rack system for displaying products comprises a rack unit supporting some of the products so as to be accessed at a forward facing product dispensing face. The rack unit has a side portion facing generally perpendicular to the dispensing face. A corner member is supported on the side portion and comprises a first wall portion extending generally forwardly to a vertical edge adjacent the product dispensing face, and a second wall portion extending generally laterally outward from the side portion to a second vertical edge. The first and second edges each have a retaining portion extending vertically. A flexible signage member is supported on the corner member in a flexed condition between the retaining portions with a signage surface that is concave outwardly between the retaining portions. The signage member is supported and retained on the corner member by a biasing of the signage member to extend wider than a distance between the retaining portions. | 04-17-2014 |
20140217041 | ERGONOMIC BOTTLE DISPLAY - A product display displays bottles each suspended by its neck. The apparatus is usually a rack display with several shelf frames that each has a number of sliding bottle support structures with left and right slide structures spaced laterally so as to define a slot of substantially uniform width over at least a lengthwise portion of the slide structures. That width is such that the necks of the bottles extend upwardly through the slot and a widened portion of the bottle's neck rests on both the slide structures and slides forward and rearward. The left and right slide structures in the lengthwise portion are inclined forwardly and downwardly at a downward angle relative to level that is in a range of 3 to 7 degrees. Friction between the bottles and the slide structures is low enough that the bottles, by virtue of their weight, t, slide forwardly on the slide structures. A lower frame shelf provides a bumper rail that prevents the bottles in the shelf rack above from sliding off the front end of the slide structure. A bridging structure may link adjacent bottle support structures such that bottles are pushed to the rear of one support structure and then proceed slopingly downward on slide tracks in the bridging structure and the next adjacent bottle support structure. | 08-07-2014 |
20150014261 | MULTI-CHUTE GRAVITY FEED DISPENSER DISPLAY - A set of panels having chutes therebetween. The chutes being defined by curvilinear rails on such panels. The curvilinear rails having stops thereon for stopping the products for viewing. | 01-15-2015 |

20160090716 | HYDRAULIC VALVE - A valve for a hydraulic system is provided including a work port channel, a load sense channel, and a tank channel. Additionally, a body cavity extends between the work port channel and the tank channel, and a spool is movably positioned in the body cavity. The body cavity defines an inner surface and the spool defines an outer surface. The inner surface of the body cavity and the outer surface of the spool together define a interface between the body cavity and the spool that extends outwardly from a longitudinal axis, such that an increased pressure differential between the work port channel and a load sense channel increases a sealing force, allowing for a more responsive valve in the hydraulic system with less leakage. | 03-31-2016 |
20160090997 | HYDRAULIC SYSTEM - A hydraulic system is provided, the hydraulic system including a hydraulic load defining a first chamber and a second chamber. Additionally, the hydraulic system includes a pressure source, a fluid storage vessel, a load sense line, and a spool valve. The spool valve fluidly connects the fluid storage vessel to one of the first or second chambers and fluidly connects the pressure source to the other of the first or second chambers. A bypass line is also provided defining a flow path between the hydraulic load and the fluid storage vessel that bypasses the spool valve. Fluid flow may encounter less resistance through the bypass line, such that the hydraulic system may run more efficiently and with a reduced risk for cavitation in the hydraulic load. | 03-31-2016 |
