Patent number: 11090145Abstract: A device and method for delivering a synthetic mesh or graft for anatomical repair at a defect site. A plurality of flexible arms is connected to the synthetic mesh or graft. Grasping jaws are individually controlled at or near a proximal end of the device for connection of the graft and release of the graft at the surgical site. The flexible arms, with graft attached are positioned through a surgical incision to the defect site. An actuator positions the flexible arms to assume a radial array at the surgical site, unfolding and spreading the graft for attachment. The length of each flexible arm is individually adjustable to adapt to the size and shape of the graft selected for installation at the defect site to repair the defect.Type: GrantFiled: September 16, 2019Date of Patent: August 17, 2021Inventors: David D. Park, Ashley B. Hancock, Byron F. Smith, Tanner Hargens

Patent number: 10925638Abstract: A method for delivering a graft or synthetic mesh for anatomical repair to the repair site, with the graft or synthetic mesh in position for attachment to repair the defect. A plurality of spaced apart, flexible fingers is connected to the graft or synthetic mesh. The flexible fingers are initially in a position that is generally parallel to a direction of travel of the actuator. The actuator moves the plurality of flexible fingers from the initial to form a radial array, which opens or extends the graft or synthetic mesh. The graft or synthetic mesh may then be attached. A novel trocar is disclosed that is useful with the device. A measuring device including a measuring scale that is useful for determining the required size of the graft is also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2016Date of Patent: February 23, 2021Inventors: David D. Park, Rebecca DeLegge, Ashley Hancock

Patent number: 6520616Abstract: A printer system for and corresponding method of determining an arrangement of status objects forming a status tree structure used to represent hardware components contained within a printer and the status tree structure stored within a print engine of the printer. A change in operational condition of one of the hardware components are detected with a sensor. A state of a status object corresponding to the one of the hardware components is changed to have an active state. A name of the status object having the changed state is transmitted from the print engine to a controller. The status object having the changed state is queried for a root path of the status object with the controller.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2001Date of Patent: February 18, 2003Assignee: Hewlett-Packard CompanyInventors: David D Parks, Trung Vu Nguyen
