20110054514EMBOLIC PROTECTION DEVICES WITH AN IMPROVED FILTER MEMBRANE - Embolic protection filtering devices and methods for making and using the same. An example embolic protection filter device may include an elongate shaft. A filter may be coupled to the shaft. The filter may include a filter frame and a filter membrane having a plurality of apertures formed therein attached to the filter frame. The filter may be configured to shift between a first collapsed configuration and a second expanded configuration. The apertures may have a first shape when the filter is in the first configuration and a second shape when the filter is in the second configuration.03-03-2011
20110054593SHEATHLESS EMBOLIC PROTECTION DEVICE - An intravascular distal protection device, comprising a guidewire having a proximal end and a distal end, a filtering material disposed about the guidewire, the filtering material having a proximal edge defining a proximally facing opening when in an expanded position, a hoop wire having a proximal end and a distal end and slidably attached to the proximal edge, the hoop wire wrapped in a helical coil about the guidewire in a first contracted position and defining a hoop at the proximal end of the filtering material in the expanded position, and an actuation member attached to the hoop wire and extending at least substantially to the proximal end of the guidewire and configured to move the hoop wire between the first contracted position and the expanded position.03-03-2011

20110059809Caddy rite golf club kit - The Caddy Rite Golf Club Kit consists of a single golf club that has an interchanging connection system located where the club head connects with the club shaft at the club head hosel thereby allowing any golf club head to be interchanged with the golf club shaft. The interchanging connection system is a two piece connector consisting of a male portion that is inserted and bonded into the club shaft lower end and a mating female portion that is inserted and bonded into the top of the hosel of a golf club head. Any golf club head or set of golf club heads modified with the female portion of the connector can be attached to a golf club shaft that has been modified to include the male portion of the connector. The interchange of one club head with another can be accomplished in less than fifteen seconds while the golfer is moving to advance his/her ball. The Kit consists of one club shaft and a typical number of club heads (4 iron, 5 iron, 6 iron, 7 iron, 8 iron, 9 iron, putter, sand wedge, pitching wedge, a #1 driver, and a #3 driver).03-10-2011

20090195186LIGHT EMITTING DIODE LIGHTING DEVICE - A lighting device comprises a mounting head having multiple facets each configured to retain an associated Light Emitting Diode (LED). The LEDs are mounted to the facets with a thermally conductive metal pad and thermally conductive adhesive. A connector for the lighting device inserts into a light socket and receives power for operating the LEDs. A heat transfer body is coupled between the mounting head and the connector and transfer heat generated by the LEDs downward from the mounting head and then radially outward. The mounting head, adhesive, metal pad, and heat transfer body form a heat transfer structure that more effectively removes heat generated by the LEDs. In one embodiment, a dimmer circuit is also provided that allows the LED lighting device to operate with conventional dimmer switches.08-06-2009

20090126925HELICAL BACKUP ELEMENT - A helical backup element includes a tubular body of material and a helical opening in the tubular body.05-21-2009
20090236102WATER SENSITIVE VARIABLE COUNTERWEIGHT DEVICE DRIVEN BY OSMOSIS - A method for producing fluid from a subterranean formation includes configuring a body to at least partially fill with a selected fluid; and actuating a flow restriction element using the body. The selected fluid may be water. An apparatus for controlling flow of a fluid into a wellbore tubular may include a selectively buoyant body, and a flow restriction element responsive to a movement of the selectively buoyant body. The selectively buoyant body includes a membrane configured to block a flow of hydrocarbons into the selectively buoyant body. The flow restriction element may include a flapper, a sliding sleeve, and a poppet valve. The body may be at least partially filled with a permeable material, which includes, but is not limited to, open-cell foam, reticulated metal foam, shaped sintered powder and capillary tubes.09-24-2009

20100057122SPRAY FOR FLUENT MATERIALS - Certain embodiments relate to a sprayer or other medical apparatus for applying a biocompatible coating in situ. Such an apparatus may have a first conduit connected to a first exit opening and a second conduit connected to a second exit opening to deliver a first composition through the first conduit and a second composition through the second conduit to mix the first composition and the second composition outside both the first conduit and the second conduit. The first composition may be, e.g., a precursor to a material formed after the mixing of the first composition and the second composition. The first exit opening and the second exit opening may be approximately adjacent to each other and define an angle that is less than about 140 degrees.03-04-2010
