Patent number: 9039377Abstract: In general terms, embodiments of the present invention relate to fan assemblies and methods for installing the same. For example, some embodiments of the present invention include a fan assembly that includes: (a) a rotational member; (b) a connection member structured for connection to the rotational member and including a body portion and a head portion; and (c) a blade arm defining an opening therein, such that the opening includes an open end portion and a closed end portion. In some embodiments, the connection member and the blade arm are configured such that, (a) when the blade arm is positioned in a support state, the head portion of the connection member rests against the blade arm to support the blade arm relative to the rotational member, and (b) when the blade arm is positioned in a secure state, the head portion of the connection member at least partially bears against the blade arm adjacent to the opening defined in the blade arm.Type: GrantFiled: July 21, 2011Date of Patent: May 26, 2015Assignee: LOWE'S COMPANIES, INC.Inventors: Curtis Nolan Lagman, Jean Tuck McGregor, James Michael Broughman, John Caleb Dawson, Dominic Louis Sasso

Patent number: 8579979Abstract: An intervertebral spacer is inserted between vertebral members in a compact configuration and expanded post-insertion to contact the adjacent vertebral members. The intervertebral spacer comprises a first member and a second member movable with respect to the first member between retracted and extended positions.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2012Date of Patent: November 12, 2013Assignee: Warsaw Orthopedic, Inc.Inventors: Jason A. Edie, Lloyd Guyton Bowers Cooper, John Caleb Dawson, Don Byron Walker, II, Jerrod Bradley Windham

Patent number: 8480738Abstract: Vertebral implants that may be movable between collapsed and expanded orientations to space apart first and second vertebral members. The implants may include first and second contact surfaces to contact against the vertebral members. The implants may include nested struts. The implants may have a first height measured between the contact surfaces in the collapsed orientation with a first amount of overlap in the struts. The implants may have a second height in the expanded orientation with a lesser amount of overlap in the struts.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2010Date of Patent: July 9, 2013Assignee: Warsaw Orthopedic, Inc.Inventors: Jason A. Edie, Lloyd Guyton Bowers Cooper, Jerrod Bradley Windham, John Caleb Dawson, Don Byron Walker, II, Barry K. Patterson

Patent number: 7731752Abstract: The application is directed to implants that are adjustable between collapsed and expanded orientations. The collapsed orientation includes a smaller height to facilitate insertion into the patient. The expanded orientation includes a larger height for spacing and/or supporting the vertebral members. The implants generally include three or more separate sections that are nested together in the collapsed orientation. The sections move outward away from each other in the expanded orientation. An expansion means may be operatively connected to one or more of the sections to move the implants between the orientations. Methods of use are also included for moving the implants between the collapsed and expanded orientations.Type: GrantFiled: July 21, 2006Date of Patent: June 8, 2010Inventors: Jason A. Edie, Lloyd Guyton Bowers Cooper, Jerrod Bradley Windham, John Caleb Dawson, Don Byron Walker, II, Barry K. Patterson
