Patent number: 11957921Abstract: Disclosed herein is a delivery system for delivering a leadless pacemaker. The delivery system may include a catheter, which may be a guide catheter. The catheter includes a distal end, a proximal end opposite the distal end, a lumen extending between the distal end and the proximal end, and a locking hub operably coupled to the proximal end. The locking hub includes a lumen segment of the lumen. In one implementation, self-biasing of the lumen segment places the lumen segment out of alignment with a rest of the lumen. Deflecting the lumen segment against the self-biasing of the lumen segment places the lumen segment in coaxial alignment with the rest of the lumen. In another implementation, self-biasing of the lumen segment reduces an inner diameter of the lumen segment and actuation of the locking hub expands the inner diameter.Type: GrantFiled: January 27, 2021Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: PACESETTER, INC.Inventors: Brett Hillukka, Thomas B. Eby, Christopher Alan Hubbard, Bernhard Arnar, Bradley Knippel, Jeremiah Blue, Jennifer Heisel, Rebecca Stufft, Adam Weber

Publication number: 20180066551Abstract: An assembly for draining fluid from a sump having a receiver. A plug is adapted for threaded engagement with the receiver, has a transverse outlet arranged for communication with the sump, and is rotatable between: sealed, where flow is inhibited across the outlet; and drain, where fluid from the sump flows across the outlet. A head is rotatably attached to the plug. A limiter between the head and plug operates in: lock, where the head and plug rotate concurrently in a first direction to move the plug from sealed to drain; slip, where the head rotates in a second direction independent of the plug in response to torque acting on the head exceeding a threshold; and limit, where the head and plug rotate concurrently in the second direction in response to torque acting on the head being less than the threshold to move the plug towards sealed.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 1, 2017Publication date: March 8, 2018Applicant: Montaplast of North America, Inc.Inventors: Christopher A.

Patent number: 8819889Abstract: A windshield wiper assembly including a wiping element adapted to contact a surface to be wiped. The wiping element includes at least one isolation pad formed thereon and wherein the isolation pad defines a portion of increased lateral width of the wiping element. A coupler assembly includes an adapter with at least one claw that corresponds to the isolation pad. The claw has a downwardly extending leg and an inwardly extending retainer portion that cooperates with the isolation pad to interconnect the adapter to the wiping element. The interaction of the isolation pad and the claw acts to securely mount the adapter to the wiping element in a cost-effective manner while reducing noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) associated with the operation of the wiper system.Type: GrantFiled: June 5, 2013Date of Patent: September 2, 2014Assignee: Trico Products CorporationInventor: Christopher A.
