Title: Balloon catheter stent delivery system with ridges
Inventor: JOHNSON ERIC G
IPC: A61F2/06
Filed: 2002-02-15
Abstract: A balloon catheter and stent delivery system for medical treatment of a patient includes a balloon having a pattern of ridges in an initial deflated state. The ridges may cooperate with structural elements of a stent crimped onto the balloon, to increase and enhance longitudinal retention of the stent while the catheter system is advanced or withdrawn. Upon inflation, the balloon recovers to an inflated shape having a cylindrical working portion. The balloon catheter thus provides for uniform expansion of the stent when the balloon is inflated. The present invention also tends to protect the leading or distal end of the stent during advancement, and tends to protect the proximal end of the stent during any withdrawal of the catheter system.

Title: Dynamic brake with backlash control for peristaltic pump
Inventor: LUCKE LORI E
IPC: G16H20/40
Filed: 2003-02-04
Abstract: The present invention involves a dynamic brake for use in a peristaltic (i.e., roller) pump. The dynamic brake avoids backlash, due to counter rotation. In addition, it does not preclude the option of hand operating the roller pump. This is achieved by initiating the braking operation after the roller pump set-point has been set to zero and only after the roller pump has decelerated below a predefined speed (e.g., 20 rpm). In addition, the braking operation is activated for only a very brief period of time (i.e., a period of time required for the pressure in the roller pump fluid conduit to subside).

Patent EP-1631450-A4 (EP)
Inventor: BESNOIN ETIENNE
IPC: B23K35/34
Filed: 2004-05-13
Abstract: Des réactions de formation se propageant automatiquement dans des films multicouches nanostruturés provoquent, à température ambiante, une rapide élévation de température et peuvent donc servir de source de chaleur localisée pour faire fondre les couches de brasure et assembler les matériaux. Ce procédé d'assemblage réactif assure un chauffage localisé des composants et un refroidissement rapide à travers le joint, ce refroidissement ayant pour effet de créer une microstructure très fine dans le matériau de brasage. L'échelle de la microstructure du matériau de brasage dépend de la vitesse de refroidissement des joints réactifs et varie en fonction des géométries et des propriétés des films et des composants. La microstructure de la couche de brasure des joints formés par fusion de la brasure dans un four est nettement plus grossière en raison de la faible vitesse de refroidissement. Les joints réactifs réalisés avec une microstructure plus fine du matériau de brasage présentent une résistance au cisaillement plus élevée que ceux qui sont réalisés par brasage au four classique, présentant une microstructure plus grossière du matériau de brasage. Ces joints réactifs sont susceptibles de présenter de meilleures propriétés de résistance à la fatigue que les joints réalisés par brasage au four classique.
