Title: Occlusion device and method for producing the same
Inventor: MOSZNER ROBERT
IPC: A61B17/00
Filed: 2004-08-18
Granted: 2011-10-04
Abstract: The present invention relates to an occlusion device and a method for manufacturing the same. The occlusion device consists substantially of a braiding of thin wires or threads made from a shape-memory material. In the expanded state, the occlusion device defines a proximal and a distal retention area as well as a cylindrical crosspiece interposed therebetween. Because the proximal retention area of the braiding exhibits a form which flares toward the proximal end, an advantageous objective is achieved in that, in the inserted state of the occlusion device, the lateral edge of the proximal retention area lies substantially flush with the septum wall and the retention area does not protrude past the septum wall which allows for producing a tubular braiding open to the top and which needs only be provided with a holder for bundling the threads or wires of braiding at one end, while at the opposite side, the threads or wires of braiding are intertwined from the center thereof.

Abstract: A refrigeration chiller employs a centrifugal compressor the impellers of which are mounted on a shaft which it itself mounted for rotation using rolling element bearings lubricated only by the refrigerant which constitutes the working fluid of the chiller system. Apparatus is taught for providing liquid refrigerant to the bearings immediately upon chiller start-up, during chiller operation and during a coastdown period subsequent to shut down of the chiller and the driver motor of the chiller's compressor for motor cooling purposes. By use of a variable speed-driven motor to drive the compressor, optimized part load chiller performance is achieved in a chiller which does not require or employ an oil-based lubrification system.
