Title: Connecting band and stress absorbing frame for highly flexible heart valve
Inventor: MARQUEZ SALVADOR
IPC: A61F2/24
Filed: 2006-04-05
Abstract: A connecting band for a highly flexible tissue-type heart valve having cusps and commissures that are permitted to move radially. The band attaches to the underside of the valve at the cusps to provide support to the stent and to the outer side of the valve at the commissures. The connecting band may include generally axial gaps at the commissures, one or more slits along the cusps, or a continuous outwardly projecting sewing ridge including a series of ribs separated by grooves around the inflow edge of the cusps. A wire-like flexible valve support frame has commissure tips that may be shaped with a complex curve having two enlarged convex flexure portions separated by a concave bridge portion at the midpoint of the commissure tip.

Abstract: A replacement part is constructed by sintering layers of material(6). During sintering the process parameters are varied so that specific areas of the material are locally sintered to different degrees. In particular the edge area(14) of a layer is sintered to form a denser structure than in the inner regions(15) of the layer. Sintering energy is provided by a laser beam(7.1) or an electron beam. Energy input is 0.5-8 J/sq mm. The tooth replacement part(10) is a bridging structure or an anatomically formed solid crown or tooth. The edge(14) is sintered to a density of not less than95%, preferably at least 99%, of the theoretical maximum. Edge breadth is 0.1-1mm, preferably not more than 0.4mm. Sintered density of the inner area(15) is 80-95% of the maximum theoretical density. The sintering rate comprising the product of the powder layer density, beam breadth and illumination rate is higher in the inner area than in the edge region. Typical sintering rates in the edge area are 1-2.3 cu mm/second and/or energy input of the beam per unit area is 1.3-8 J/sq mm. Sintering rates in the inner area are 2.3-5 cu mm/second and/or energy input is 0.5-1.8 J/sq mm. Tensile and bending strengths in edge areas are not less than1.1 times greater than those of the inner area. An independent claim is included for a tooth replacement part manufactured by the claimed method and which has an edge area(14) of higher density than the inner region.

Abstract: A method of forming a hydrogen transport membrane in which isolated deposits of palladium, a palladium alloy or a component of such alloy are produced on a surface of the porous ceramic support that bridge pores within the porous ceramic support without penetrating the pores and without bridging regions of the surface defined between the pores. The isolated deposits of the metal are produced by an electroless plating process that involves contacting the porous ceramic support with a precipitating agent so that the precipitating agent fills the pores but does not seep out of the pores onto the regions of the surfaces defined between the pores. The surface is then contacted with a salt solution containing a salt of the metal so that said metal precipitates and produces the isolated deposits. Thereafter, a dense layer of palladium, palladium alloy ,is formed on the surface having the isolated deposits.
