| 20080221689 | ARTIFICIAL DISC WITH UNIQUE ARTICULATING GEOMETRY AND ASSOCIATED METHODS - An apparatus and method is provided relating to artificial discs. An artificial disc is provided that facilitates simultaneous and independent articulation of flexion/extension, lateral bending, anterior/posterior translation, and axial rotation. The artificial disc provides these four simultaneous and independent articulations by independently addressing each type of articulation in the design of the artificial disc. In one example, an artificial disc is comprised of a bearing disposed between first and second end plates. The bearing is movable relative to each end plate, independent of the other end plate. The end plates are affixed to adjacent vertebrae. | 09-11-2008 |
| 20080221690 | ARTIFICIAL DISC WITH POST AND MODULAR COLLAR - An apparatus and method is provided relating to artificial discs. An artificial disc is provided that facilitates simultaneous and independent articulation of flexion/extension, lateral bending, anterior/posterior translation, and axial rotation. The artificial disc provides these four simultaneous and independent articulations by independently addressing each type of articulation in the design of the artificial disc. In one example, an artificial disc is comprised of a bearing disposed between first and second end plates. The bearing is movable relative to each end plate, independent of the other end plate. The end plates are affixed to adjacent vertebrae. | 09-11-2008 |
| 20080221691 | SURGICAL IMPLANT SECURED BY PEGS AND ASSOCIATED METHODS - An apparatus and method is provided relating to artificial discs. An artificial disc is provided that facilitates simultaneous and independent articulation of flexion/extension, lateral bending, anterior/posterior translation, and axial rotation. The artificial disc provides these four simultaneous and independent articulations by independently addressing each type of articulation in the design of the artificial disc. In one example, an artificial disc is comprised of a bearing disposed between first and second end plates. The bearing is movable relative to each end plate, independent of the other end plate.

| 20100069960 | Spinous Process Based Laminoplasty - In one embodiment of the invention, a cervical implant may include a spinous process base coupled to a lateral mass base. During an open door laminoplasty, a surgeon may connect the lateral mass base to the right lateral mass and connect the spinous process base to the spinous process to fixedly retract the left lamina from the left lateral mass. As a result, no implant is needed to bridge or span the open door. Instead, the implant may span the hinged lamina. Consequently, no holes must be drilled in left lamina (open door side). If no holes must be drilled in left lamina, the surgeon lessens the risk of drilling a drill bit through left lamina and into spinal cord. Furthermore, no implant base or portion, screw, bolt, or fastener of any form needs to be affixed to inferior side of the left lamina, thereby avoiding irritation of the spinal cord by the implant. | 03-18-2010 |

| 20110289947 | Temperature-controlled beverage dispenser - A temperature-controlled beverage dispenser is disclosed, which provides a cold plate having disposed therein beverage lines and refrigerant lines. The refrigerant lines may be connected to a cooling system, such as a heat exchanger, which is configured to remove heat from the cold plate. The beverage lines may be connected to a beverage supply for dispensing a desired beverage. Valves and a pressure sensor in the refrigerant line are connected to a microprocessor. At regular intervals, the microprocessor closes the valves, waits a short time, and then takes a pressure reading, which corresponds to a temperature. If the temperature falls below a desired value, then the cooling system is shut off. This permits the microprocessor to closely control the temperature of the beverage being dispensed. | 12-01-2011 |

| 20110230174 | SYSTEM AND METHOD TO IDENTIFY AND TRANSFER TO A WIRELESS DEVICE ACTIONABLE ITEMS BASED ON USER SELECTED CONTENT - A system, method, device and interface for selecting data for a wireless device. The system, method, device and interface provide for categorizing selected data based on two or more categories, determining an action based on the categorization, and transferring the selected data and the determined action to the wireless device. In one embodiment, the categorization of the selected data may also be transferred to the wireless device. The categorizing of the selected data may include receiving input related to the categorizing, and altering a categorizing algorithm utilized in performing the categorization in response to the received input. The input may include a new category and/or a change in an existing category. | 09-22-2011 |
