Abstract:
An open implant closure structure includes a helically wound guide and advancement structure having at least two helically wound forms thereon providing a multi-start closing mechanism for use between spaced arms of a cooperating open medical implant having mating helically wound structure thereon. Illustrated structures include interlocking flange forms, v-threads, square threads, reverse angle threads and buttress threads and receivers with break-off extensions and cooperating tooling.

Claim (Index 7):
A medical implant assembly comprising:\n a receiver having a first arm and a second arm, the first arm and the second arm each having a top side surface; a channel formed by the first arm and the second arm, the channel closeable with a closure having an axis of rotation; a first interior surface of the first arm; a second interior surface of the second arm; a first discontinuous helically wound structure on the first interior surface of the first arm, the first discontinuously helically wound structure engageable to a first start of a first continuously helically wound form disposed on the closure; and a second discontinuous helically wound structure on the second interior surface of the second arm, the second discontinuous helically wound structure engageable to a second start of a second continuous helically wound form disposed on the closure, a rotation of the closure about the axis of rotation between the first arm and the second arm causing a simultaneous mating of the first start with the first discontinuous helically wound structure and the second start with the second discontinuous helically wound structure, the closure rotationally advanceable within the channel until locked within the channel.
