Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090071434LOW HEAT REJECTION HIGH EFFICIENCY INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE - An internal combustion engine including a low thermal capacity, low thermal conductivity insulating liner is provided. The insulating liner may be positioned to line the combustion chamber and a portion of the cylinder wall. The insulating liner may comprise a high aspect morphology sintered ceramic material and may further include a surface coating. The internal combustion engine may be a four-stroke diesel engine with variable valve timing operating using an asymmetric cycle. Through the asymmetric cycle and insulative properties of the insulating liner, the heat loss of the disclosed internal combustion engine is significantly less than that of a similar conventional internal combustion engine, resulting in significant efficiency improvements.03-19-2009

20100210916Surgical Instruments for Accessing and Stabilizing a Localized Portion of a Beating Heart - Surgical devices for stabilizing the heart are disclosed which facilitate anastomosis under beating heart conditions. Various instruments or devices may be maneuvered and secured on a retractor device to provide stabilization of the heart. An instrument mount is provided which is preferably configured to accept a surgical instrument, such as a tissue stabilizer, and to allow the instrument to be easily maneuvered to a desired position and subsequently locked into position with a simple operation of a single locking actuator. Further disclosed are stabilizer devices each having at least one surface for contacting the heart and each being adapted to be mounted to the retractor while having the ability to be positioned in the desired location against the heart.08-19-2010
