Publication number: 20210236183Abstract: The present invention relates to a series of orthopedic plates for use in repair of a bone. The plate has a Y-shaped profile or an X-shaped profile which includes an elongate central trunk with a complex contour and either one or two terminal pairs of arms that have a first arm and a second arm that form differing angles and lengths relative to the trunk portion of the plate. The arms include locking screw holes where the screws converge toward each other to provide for multiplanar fixation but which do not impinge.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 20, 2021Publication date: August 5, 2021Applicant: WRIGHT MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY, INC.Inventors: Dustin DUCHARME, Robert H. BELL, Bryan D. Den Hartog, Rebecca F. KOCHER, Anil K. DUTTA, Thomas Bradley EDWARDS, David B. KAY, Andrew J. LEITHER, Derek S. LEWIS, Lee A. STRNAD, G. Martin WYNKOOP

Patent number: 9149313Abstract: An orthopedic plate has a portion with a curved bottom surface that is designed to extend longitudinally along the bone and change the inferior curve as it advances proximally along the bone from a shallower to a sharper radius and further spirals downward as the plate advances. The plate includes a set of tabs, offset from the longitudinal axis of the plate to provide for better pullout values. The ears may be located at the terminal portion of the plate or somewhat more intermediate to the terminus of the plate, depending on the intended application. A point in the center of the central screw hole can be used to define the origin of the plate, and the angles of the screw and/or pegs holes can be referenced with Z, Y, and Z coordinates relative to this central hole.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2014Date of Patent: October 6, 2015Assignee: ORTHOHELIX SURGICAL DESIGNS, INC.Inventors: Lee Strnad, David B. Kay, Amanda Martin, G. Martin Wynkoop
