Patent number: 7131369Abstract: A drawer and latching mechanism for a beverage brewer, and preferably, a brewer that utilizes a pod of coffee grounds or another beverage component, has a housing of the brewer including a pivotable cover and a drawer for retaining a pod of a beverage component below the brew head. In an open position, the pivotable cover and brew head are pivoted away from the drawer to allow access to the pod, while in a closed position, the pivotable cover and brew head are pivoted toward and locked relative to the drawer to secure the pod below the brew head for brewing.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2005Date of Patent: November 7, 2006Assignee: Grindmaster CorporationInventors: Timothy D. Gantt, William A. Dahmen, William A. Reuss, Jr., Kenton J. Graviss, David Waynescott, Robert Lewis Mallory, Kwong Shing Wong, David Lee Vergara

Patent number: 7125414Abstract: An emboli filter for deployment in a body lumen to capture emboli entrained in a fluid flowing through the lumen includes a flexible elongated member sized to be passed through the lumen. A filter media is carried on and substantially surrounding the elongated member. The filter media has a first end secured to the elongated member adjacent the distal end. A second end of the filter media has a periphery movable toward and away from the elongated member. Opposing internal surfaces of the filter media define a volume into which emboli may flow through the second end when the periphery is moved away from the elongated member. The emboli are trapped within the volume when the periphery is moved toward the elongated member. An actuator moves the periphery toward and way from the elongated member. The actuator includes a plurality of elastic loops. The loops are biased to an open loop configuration with the loops urging the periphery away from the elongated member.Type: GrantFiled: January 2, 2003Date of Patent: October 24, 2006Assignee: ev3 Peripheral, Inc.Inventors: Victor R. Blackledge, Charles H. Whatley, Jr., Benjamin E. Morris, Todd A. Hall, William A. Reuss, Jr.

Patent number: 6695877Abstract: A bifurcated stent comprises a first stent section and a second stent section. Each stent section is expandable from a predeployed state to a deployed state independently from one another. The second stent section having an end engaged to a receiving region of the first stent section. In the deployed state the first stent section defines a primary flow path and the second stent section defines a secondary flow path in fluid communication with the first flow path. At least a portion of one or both the first stent section and second stent section is constructed from a wire member.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 2002Date of Patent: February 24, 2004Assignee: SciMed Life SystemsInventors: Gregory G. Brucker, Todd Hall, Enrique Malaret, David Byrd, Gerald Hubbs, Gregory Furnish, Josh Barber, Indaka Gunasekara, Benjamin Morris, Valerie Futral, Sava A. Chernomordik, William C.
