Title: Dispositif medical endovasculaire dote de plusieurs fils
Inventor: KLINT HENRIK SONDERSKOV
IPC: A61F2/95
Filed: 2001-01-26
Granted: 2008-04-15
Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif endovasculaire (1, 100, 200, 300) doté d'une extrémité distale (2), d'une extrémité proximale (4) et d'une partie principale (3) entre les deux. Cette partie principale est composée d'un ensemble (A) de plusieurs filaments (5) torsadés en hélice, doté d'un revêtement étanche (14) sur la surface interne ou la surface externe, ou sur les deux. Ce dispositif peut être un cathéter (1), une gaine, un introducteur, un dispositif de réception, un pousseur (100), un dispositif de réception de spire d'embolisation (300), ou un réceptacle (208) pour une prothèse extensible (220) utilisée avec un dispositif de diffusion (200). De 2 à 12, et de préférence de 4 à 8 fils (5) sont utilisés dans l'ensemble, et un nombre inférieur peut servir à procéder en direction de l'extrémité distale (2) pour obtenir une plus grande souplesse. L'ensemble de fils enroulés en hélice transmet le couple et fournit la poussée nécessaire au dispositif tout en résistant à l'entortillement, et permet à un faible diamètre externe d'atteindre de très fins vaisseaux et de progresser à l'intérieur de vaisseaux très tortueux.

Inventor: HOLMES MARK A
IPC: B65D19/00
Filed: 2003-06-17
Granted: 2007-06-26
Abstract: A Conveyorable Plastic Thermoformed Pallet, having a support member and support legs with outer walls, internal walls and inner walls, is utilized to transport product on a conveyor system. The Pallet is made using a twin-sheet thermoforming process that requires two molds for an upper sheet of thermoplastic material and a lower sheet of thermoplastic material. The upper sheet forms a top deck of the support member and the internal walls of the support legs. The lower sheet forms the underside of the support member, the inner walls of the support legs, and leg bottoms. Both sheets are fused to form the twin-sheet outer walls. The upper sheet also forms web strips which stabilize the walls of the support legs and prevent deflection of the walls.
