Patent number: 11871952Abstract: Systems and methods discussed herein relate to surgical systems including tissue resecting devices where the handset has a disposable portion detachably coupled to a reusable portion. The reusable portion may be a housing where a motor and electronics are stored that may be used to drive a shaft inserted into the disposable portion. The shaft may be coupled to a fluid pathway through the disposable portion that is fluidly isolated from the reusable section. After use, the disposable section is detached from the reusable section and disposed, and the reusable section may be cleaned and sterilized, or may be cleaned only.Type: GrantFiled: April 28, 2020Date of Patent: January 16, 2024Assignee: Covidien LPInventors: Ashlie M. Brown, Tejas S. Inamdar, Bradley R. Heil, Subhrangshu Datta, Jeremy A. Van Hill, Sylvain B. Jamais, Martin J. Dinnage, Derek W. Henderson

Patent number: 8881660Abstract: A shelf assembly for an appliance includes a shelf panel comprising a generally planar support surface and a rear edge including a raised profile extending away from the support surface. A frame is configured to be mounted to an appliance to support the shelf panel with the support surface extending generally along a horizontal plane. The frame includes an elongated rear support member. A support channel extends at least partially into the rear support member, and is configured to removably receive and capture the rear edge of the shelf panel to inhibit removal of the shelf panel from the frame in the direction of the horizontal plane. The shelf panel is selectively removable from the support channel by tilting a front edge of the shelf panel upwards to a predetermined angle relative to the horizontal plane. A slide latch can selectively and lockingly engage corresponding support structure of an appliance.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2012Date of Patent: November 11, 2014Assignee: Electrolux Home Products, Inc.Inventors: Cory Dale Simpson, Nilton Carlos Bertolini, Jeremy Van Hill, Caleb Gossens, Justin Morgan, Paul Dubina
