  • Deployment handle for delivery of implants
    Patent number: 11957609
    Abstract: A delivery device for controllably delivering multiple implants (e.g., intravascular implants) is described herein. The delivery device may include a lockout mechanism to prevent against inadvertent implant deployment prior to initial use. The delivery device may also include a re-sheath mechanism to allow for re-sheathing of an inner core assembly prior to removal of the delivery device from an initial deployment site. The delivery device may also further include a mechanism configured to prevent against re-sheathing of a partially-deployed implant.

  • Truck bed assembly with integral partial sliding deck with pivoting inclined towers for raising and lowering a sliding deck
    Patent number: 7635248
    Abstract: A sliding deck for carrying loads in transit and both lifting or lowering the loads includes a spaced pair of pivoting outer tubular tower members having hydraulically operated cylinders interior to a pair of telescoping tubular inner members located interior to the outer tubular tower member in which the pivoting of the tower members is controlled about a pivot by a supporting hydraulically-operated cylinder. A friction-relieving feature for accommodating movement of the interior telescoping member may include a Teflon brand wear pad fixed on the inner surface of the fixed outer tubular tower member. Together, the fixed outer tubular member and the sliding interior tubular member form a pivoting tower-like support member at an incline relative to the truck bed.
