  • Expandable fixation assemblies
    Patent number: 9750552
    Abstract: Expandable fixation assemblies, expandable cranial fixation assemblies, and expandable intervertebral implant assemblies are provided for securing structures to bone and for securing bones and/or bone segments with respect to each other. An expansion member can be moved through at least a portion of an expandable fixation body, thereby causing expansion of the expandable fixation body, such that bone engagement features of the expandable fixation body engage surrounding structure, such as bone.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 6, 2015
    Date of Patent: September 5, 2017
    Assignee: DePuy Synthes Products, Inc.

  • Motor stator assembly mounting features for radial mounting to a shroud and assembly method
    Patent number: 7868498
    Abstract: A motor case assembly 20 a permanent magnet D.C. electric motor includes a motor case 24 having a generally cylindrical wall 25, a closed end 21, and an open end 23 opposite the closed end, defining an interior 27. Permanent magnet structure 26 is mounted to the wall 25 in the interior 27. A surface defines at least one hole 22 through the wall 25. The hole 22 is constructed and arranged to be employed in mounting the case 20 to a shroud to obtain a mass balance distribution of a motor shroud assembly.
