Granted: 2011-04-12
Abstract: A new and improved toggle-bolt type fastener has pocket structure effectively incorporated therein so as to accommodate extra-long threaded activation screws or bolt fasteners in a coaxial manner within the toggle-bolt type fastener. Alternatively, structure has been incorporated within the toggle-bolt type fastener which effectively accommodates extra-long threaded activation screws or bolt fasteners by causing the same to be slightly deflected from their coaxial disposition within the toggle-bolt type fastener so as to permit the same to bypass the stab point of the toggle-bolt type fastener. Still further, additional structure has also been incorporated within the toggle-bolt type fastener for ensuring the fact that when the nut member is moved from its first or original, axially oriented, inoperative or non-deployed position, to its second, transversely oriented, operative or deployed position, the nut member will in fact be disposed substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the toggle-bolt type fastener so as to, in turn, ensure the proper threaded engagement thereby by the threaded activation screw or bolt fastener.

Abstract: A system and method for a communication terminal to manage and maintain a current application version for multiple applications are provided. The system and method provide for managing memory in a communication terminal coupled to a server device enabling the communication terminal to provide memory capacity for storing in a memory and executing on the communication terminal a plurality of applications downloaded from the server device. Prior to downloading an application, the communication terminal determines an amount of memory capacity required by an application client to be downloaded from the server device. The communication terminal then attempts to allocate the memory capacity. If memory cannot be allocated from the system heap, the communication terminal purges data contained in the memory according to a dynamic list of priorities to create memory capacity in the memory for the application client. Once sufficient memory capacity has been created, it is allocated to the application client, and the application client is downloaded to the communication terminal.

Title: Holders for prosthetic aortic heart valves
Inventor: STOBIE ROBERT
IPC: A61F2/24
Filed: 2007-04-12
Granted: 2015-10-06
Abstract: A holder (60) for a flexible leaflet prosthetic aortic heart valve (22) that is less bulky than earlier holders and minimizes obstructions to vision and working space around the valve to facilitate implantation thereof. The holder may have a central hub (62) and three outwardly extending legs (66a, 66b, 66c) that connect directly and exclusively to tips of the commissures of the aortic heart valve for better tactile feedback when parachuting and seating the valve in the annulus. The legs are sized so that they do not overlap the commissure tips and therefore afford a better view of the sewing ring adjacent the commissures. The legs may be narrow in the midsection (70) or split into two rails (90a, 90b) to increase visibility of the valve leaflets. The hub may be vaulted axially upward relative to the outer ends of the legs to further increase visibility of the valve. A more secure engagement between the central hub and a delivery handle is also provided to ensure the holder/handle connection does not become loose during suture placement through the sewing ring (30) and fewer handle revolutions are required to screw in and unscrew the handle from the holder.

Granted: 2012-08-28
Abstract: A connector for establishing electrical connection between a testing device (30) and a test strip (40) with a biological fluid thereon includes a contact pad (42) on the test strip (40), and one or more contact wires in the testing device. When the strip is inserted into the testing device, part of the strip' s end engages a contact portion (72) of a contact wire (60) and deflects it in a direction normal to the direction of insertion. In certain embodiments the radius of curvature (in the direction of insertion) of the contact portion is controlled to reduce abrasion of the strip by the wire. In other embodiments the radius of curvature (perpendicular to the direction of insertion) is controlled to reduce the abrasion of the strip by the wire. Sometimes the contact portion and/or contact pad is plated with a sacrificial material to reduce the coefficient of friction. In other embodiments various numbers of contacts receive the end of the strip substantially simultaneously, or are staggered in rows to distribute the resistance presented.
