  • Patent number: 10494782
    Abstract: A set of components that can be used to construct a structurally sound dock are disclosed. The components can be extruded and the components are shaped such that interconnected components provide support for the other components thereby alleviating weak points due to welded only joints. A fascia channel provides additional strength by including structures that improve the vertical and horizontal strength of the fascia channel. HDPE plastic inserts and sheaves provide sound dampening for metal to metal contact points. Other components include a corner connector, a post system and a hinge system. The focus of this disclosure is the corner connector.

  • Publication number: 20130304129
    Abstract: A hook for attaching a surgical rod to a vertebra includes a rod-receiving portion, a base portion, and a tip portion. The rod-receiving portion includes a pair of side walls that form a channel for receiving the surgical rod. The base portion extends distally from the rod-receiving portion and includes a first flow path extending therethrough. The tip portion extends away from the rod-receiving portion to form a hook portion for attaching to the vertebrae. In other features, the hook includes a second flow path extending through the tip portion.
