Title: Vessel position locating device
Inventor: NASH JOHN
IPC: A61B17/12
Filed: 1993-09-30
Granted: 1996-08-08
Abstract: A device for determining the location of the wall of an artery in a living being via a percutaeous incision or puncture. The device comprises an elongated tubular member having a distal end portion, a proximal end portion, and a passageway extending therethrough for receipt of a guide wire. The device is inserted through an introducer sheath having an open distal end into said percutaneous incision or puncture over said guide wire so its distal end portion is located within the artery and its proximal end portion is located outside of the body of the being. The has two liquid entrance ports in its distal end portion and one liquid outlet port in its proximal end portion. The liquid entrance ports and outlet port are in communication with each other through the device's passageway. When the device is positioned within the introducer sheath and the entrance ports are located beyond the open distal end of the introducer sheath and within the artery blood flows into the entrance ports through passageway and out through the outlet port so that it can be observed. The device and introducer sheath are then retracted until the flow of blood out of the outlet port stops, thereby indicating the location of the artery wall.

Title: Detent mechanism for a hinged orthopaedic brace
Inventor: NEBOLON JOSEPH F
IPC: A61F5/01
Filed: 1994-07-06
Granted: 1996-09-26
Abstract: A hinge assembly is provided for an orthopaedic brace having a rotatable hinge and a detent mechanism to automatically, yet releasably, lock the hinge in a fixed position or rotation. The hinge includes two rotatably attached members and the detent mechanism includes an indentation formed in the attached end of one member and a block pivotally mounted on the other member. The block has a locking projection that is biased toward the indentation and cooperates therewith to provide three positions of operation, a locked position, a release position, and an activated position. In the locked position, the locking projection fittingly engages the indentation, thereby substantially preventing rotation of the hinge. The release position displaces the locking projection a radial distance away from the indentation, thereby permitting the hinge to rotate freely. In the activated position, the block disengages the indentation and maintain an angular distance therefrom so that the detent mechanism does not obstruct rotation of the hinge, but enables automatic repositioning of the hinge assembly to the locked position whenever the locking projection and indentation angularly realign. <IMAGE>
