Abstract: Disclosed herein are delivery systems and methods for delivering a prosthetic heart valve to a native heart valve of a heart. An exemplary delivery system may include a shaft portion having at least one shaft, at least one steering wire, and at least one pull wire. The system may further include a handle portion coupled to a proximal end of the shaft portion and a capsule portion coupled to a distal end of the shaft portion. The capsule portion may be configured to house the prosthetic heart valve. At least one portion of the delivery system may be configured to be engaged with the prosthetic heart valve when the prosthetic heart valve is implanted in the native heart valve of the heart.

Abstract: Described herein are prosthetic heart valves and methods for improving the functionality of native heart valves. An exemplary prosthetic heart valve may include one or more support structures, in which at least one support structure defines an elongate central passageway having a longitudinal. The prosthetic heart valve may include a plurality of leaflet elements attached to the at least one support structure and disposed within the elongate central passageway for control of blood flow through the elongate central passageway. The at least one support structure may be configured to biodynamically fix the prosthetic heart valve to native leaflets of a native heart valve of a heart.

Abstract: An air vent for a vehicle HVAC system includes a duct, a forward fin connected to an air outlet at a first end portion of the duct, and plurality of rear fins connected to an air inlet at a second end portion of the duct. The forward fin rotatable about a transverse direction of the duct is configured to adjust the direction of airflow in a vertical direction of the duct. The plurality of rear fins rotatable about the vertical direction is configured to adjust the direction of airflow in a longitudinal direction of the duct. A shut-off valve is rotatably connected to a central portion of the duct and positioned between the forward fin and the plurality of rear fins. The shut-off valve is directly connected to the forward fin and configured to rotate about the transverse direction via movement of the forward fin in the longitudinal direction.

Abstract: A center console for a vehicle includes a base, a storage compartment disposed within the base having an upwardly facing opening, and a cover hingedly connected to the base for selectively covering the opening of the storage compartment. The cover includes a first cover portion, a second cover portion, two rods positioned between the first cover portion and the second cover portion, and two reversible sections disposed around the rods. The reversible sections are axially rotatable about the rods between a first position and a second position. When in the first position, the reversible sections present an armrest, and in the second position, the reversible sections present a storage tray.

Abstract: A center console for a vehicle is disclosed that includes a base, a storage compartment disposed within the base having an upwardly facing opening, and a cover hingedly connected to the base for selectively covering the opening of the storage compartment. The cover includes an outer cover section and an adjustable center cover section disposed within the outer cover section. The adjustable center cover section is movable between a first position and a second position.
