Publication number: 20230062830Abstract: A marine device assembly, such including a trolling motor and/or at least one sonar transducer, is provided for attachment to a watercraft. The trolling motor and/or sonar transducer is attached at an end of a shaft. The marine device assembly includes a position adjustment assembly comprising a plurality of rotatable drums surrounding the shaft that are configured to adjust the rotational and/or vertical position of the trolling motor and/or sonar transducer(s) in accordance with a position adjustment command. In various aspects, the drums are configured to independently rotate about the shaft in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction so as to cause the trolling motor and/or sonar transducer(s) to rotate about the central axis of the shaft and/or translate along the central axis of the shaft.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 1, 2021Publication date: March 2, 2023Inventors: Joseph Donald Frederick Raffills, Antony Michael Mackenzie

Publication number: 20190201216Abstract: An interlaminar fixation device (“ILFD”) and related tools for implanting and extracting the ILFD in surgical procedures to provide support for patients having degenerative spinal conditions. The ILFD comprises an implant body, a pair of fixation pin assemblies, and a locking plug. The body may be a boxlike structure made of a material such as polyetheretherketone (PEEK) or other material with similar beneficial properties. An implant-sizing tool is provided for determining the appropriately sized ILFD. An implant-grasper tool is provided for grasping the ILFD for insertion and positioning of the ILFD. A bone-punch tool is provided for creating openings aligned for insertion of fixation pins. A pin-inserter tool is provided for urging fixation pins into position. A locking-plug inserter tool is provided for inserting the locking plug into the body of the ILFD. A locking-plug extractor tool is provided for removing the locking plug.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 17, 2018Publication date: July 4, 2019Inventor: Donald Mackenzie
