Title: Aortic annuloplasty ring
Inventor: CARPENTIER ALAIN
IPC: A61L27/04
Filed: 2000-04-14
Granted: 2009-07-07
Abstract: An infra-annular annuloplasty prosthesis is disclosed including a flexibly semi-rigid frame, a portion of which is shaped to conform to the scalloped configuration of the nor-mal circumference of an arterial heart valve annulus. Axially projecting legs spaced circumferentially to correspond to the location of tissue adjacent to the valve commissures are pro-vided for support and anchoring of the annulus-conforming portion to the dense fibrous tissues adjacent each commissure.  The prosthesis includes a one- or two-part frame having scal-loped upper and lower edges defining peaks and valleys. The upper edge is shaped to follow the contour of the tissue un-derneath the valve leaflets, and thus supports the leaflets and aortic wall from below. The lower edge is similarly scal-lop-shaped, but with less pronounced peaks and valleys than the upper edge, and is thus shaped to conform to the aortic annulus shape and provide support directly thereto.

Granted: 2006-12-05
Abstract: This invention is directed to an improved bag-in-box apparatus for containing and dispensing liquids such as beverages.      The interior surface of the bottom of the box (20) is preferably sloped downward toward the spout (12) of the bag (10) such tat gravity helps feed the liquid toward the spout (12). In lieu of or in conjunction with slopes, the interior bottom surface of the box (120, 130, 150, 140, 160) may have terraces (34), curves (132, 134), corrugations (152), fan-like ridges (142), or beams (162). The present invention thereby reduces the amount of residual liquid as the liquid is withdrawn from the bag (10) without the need for an evacuation strip or a special slanted rack. Although the primary intended application of the present invention is in bag-in-box packages for containing and dispensing beverages, this invention may also be used to advantage in other liquid dispensing applications.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur des gaines (18) de renfort faites de fibres présentant une combinaison d'éléments de renfort (16) revêtus d'une résine d'ester vinylique durcissable (30) et d'une couche extérieure (32) de téréphthalate de polybutylène/polyéther glycol ou d'éthylène/acide acrylique (32). Les éléments de renfort peuvent être des fibres de verre de type E (24) ou de type S (26) ou leur combinaison ou des fibres de type E et/ou S associées à des brins à haute résistance de fibres (28) synthétiques de poly(p-phénylène 2,6 benzoisoxazole). La couche extérieure a des propriétés améliorées d'adhérence spécifique, de protection de l'environnement, de résistance à la rupture des fibres de surface, et jusqu'à un certain degré, de résistance au délaminage. La susdite gaine permet une meilleure translation de l'énergie de déformation due à la réduction des défauts et des contraintes résiduelles, ce qui donne une gaine composite plus dense et plus élastique après durcissement. En faisant varier le type de fibres et l'épaisseur du revêtement UV ou de la couche extérieure, on peut réaliser des gaines présentant une large plage de résistances à la traction et de modules d'élasticité en traction.
