Patent number: 8277513Abstract: A joint prosthesis may include a tibial tray, a tibial base, a tibial articular member, and a femoral articular member. A coupler may engage the tray, and optionally the base, with an interference fit. An interference fit may be engaged using a mating surface with a constant non-tapering cross-sectional geometry.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2010Date of Patent: October 2, 2012Assignee: OMNI life science, Inc.Inventors: George Cipolletti, Edward J. Cheal, James H. Henry

Patent number: 7572297Abstract: A joint prosthesis may include a modular head member, a modular body member, and a stem member. The stem member may be so tapered as to be engageable by taper press-fit into the medullary cavity of a bone. The body member may be engageable in the stem member by friction-tight press-fit at a zone of diametrical interference.Type: GrantFiled: October 8, 2004Date of Patent: August 11, 2009Assignee: OMNI life science, Inc.Inventors: Edward J. Cheal, George B. Cipolletti
