Patent number: 10578425Abstract: Embodiments include a system for test fitting fabric, comprising a flat structure comprising a test surface defined by four sidewalls and an interface configured to attach the fabric to the test surface. The four sidewalls include a first sidewall and a second sidewall substantially perpendicular to the first sidewall. The test surface comprises a first adjustable dimension substantially parallel to the second sidewall and a second adjustable dimension substantially parallel to the first sidewall. The system also includes a user interface configured to receive one or more inputs for adjusting the first adjustable dimension and the second adjustable dimension; a first mechanism configured to, in response to the one or more inputs, automatically move the first sidewall to adjust the first adjustable dimension; and a second mechanism configured to, in response to the one or more inputs, automatically move the second sidewall to adjust the second adjustable dimension.Type: GrantFiled: January 8, 2018Date of Patent: March 3, 2020Assignee: Czarnowski Display Service, Inc.Inventors: Larry Ezzelle, Jay Pryor, Kirk Charles, Craig Cochran, Adam Ambrecht

Patent number: 10441436Abstract: A surgical tool and method used to extract an acetabular cup from an acetabulum with minimal or no bone damage even if there has been significant bone ingrowth prior to the extraction process. The tool is designed for use with a reverse hip prosthesis wherein the acetabular cup comprises a stem extending from its concave surface and an acetabular ball is affixed to the stem. The tool is rotated on the ball and a blade is thereby caused to rotate adjacent or in close proximity to a convex surface of the cup in a position between the acetabular bone and the cup, thereby separating the cup from the bone.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2016Date of Patent: October 15, 2019Assignee: HIP INNOVATION TECHNOLOGY, LLCInventors: Zafer Termanini, Brian Vanhiel, Adam Ambrecht
