  • Patent number: 10702391
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a vertebral implant, in particular for corpectomy, to a device for attaching a vertebral implant and to implantation instrumentation, the implant including at least one first body (2) and at least one second body (3) each having at least one face having shapes and dimensions mating those of at least one face of another body (3, 2) and forming mutual fitting means, in order to allow assembling of said bodies (2, 3) by sliding along a sliding axis and, on the other hand, at least one locking means (4) retained in at least one of the bodies (2, 3) and at least one abutment portion of which is laid out for passing from a so-called open position, allowing sliding for the assembling of said bodies (2, 3), to a so-called closed position, locking said bodies (2, 3) assembled together by the contact between at least said abutment portion and at least one abutment (42, 43) of at least one of said bodies (2, 3), said abutment (42, 43) being oriented not parallel to the sliding axis and s

  • Patent number: 10478310
    Abstract: This disclosure provides various vertebral implants, devices for attaching a vertebral implant and implantation instrumentations. In some embodiments, the implant includes a first body and a second body, each having a face with shapes and dimensions mating that of the other body and forming mutual fitting means, thus allowing assembly of the bodies by sliding along a sliding axis. In some embodiments, a locking means is retained in one of the bodies and an abutment portion may move from an open position allowing sliding for the assembling of the bodies to a closed position locking the bodies in assembly by the contact between the abutment portion, by contact with an abutment of the other body, the abutment being oriented angularly to the sliding axis and the abutment portion passing from the open position to the closed position elastically by flexure or torsion.

  • Patent number: 6783831
    Abstract: This place is made of cellulosic material with a top and bottom planar surface and a peripheral edge. Approximately 75% of the bottom surface is covered with adhesive to keep small children from pulling the placemat off the surface it is adhering The top surface is liquid-resistant to keep it from functioning due to tears in the paper. The placemat is uniquely folded to ensure the operational side remains unexposed to the elements and to avoid using release tape for the adhesive. The placemat is also disposable making it convenient to use. The placemat is folded to be an individual package making it convenient to carry and distribute. The placemat is easy to place onto a surface and remove. The placemat is essential to keep young children from eating off of unsanitary surfaces and moving existing placemats with ease.
