Abstract: The implantable textile anchor includes a collapsible member including a first end, a second end and a plurality of eyelets arranged between the first end and the second end, and at least one filament. The collapsible member is braided to form bifurcating and converging portions, which define the eyelets. The at least one filament is guided through eyelets of the collapsible member so that by pulling on the at least one filament the collapsible member collapses to a form with an increased lateral extension. The at least one filament is knotted to an eyelet and/or the at least one filament and at least a second filament are made integral with the collapsible member.

Abstract: A system of a reinforced structural element of motor vehicle include: structural element includes a first and second sheet, wherein the sheets are connected to one another at first and second joining points, wherein the sheets form elongate cavity in region between the joining points, and wherein second sheet has, in region between first and second joining points, a bulge with first leg arranged at first joining point and with second leg arranged at second joining point; a reinforcing element includes a first and second side walls connecting the wall arranged in cavity of structural element; and adhesive bonding reinforcing element to structural element; wherein first side wall of reinforcing element arranging the first joining point and second side wall of reinforcing element arranging the second leg of second sheet so larger portions of force acting on first joining point of reinforcing element transferring, to second leg of second sheet.

Abstract: The Implantable holding device for acting on bones, in particular for ligament reconstruction and/or stabilization of a joint, includes a flexible loop member having a first end, a second end and a plurality of eyelets, and a support member configured to lie against a bone and including an attachment element. The loop member being braided to form bifurcating and converging portions which define the eyelets. The support member has a first attachment location for attachment of the first end of the loop member and a second attachment location for attaching the loop member by passing a portion of the attachment element through an eyelet.

Abstract: In the case of an element for sealing or reinforcing a cavity of a structural element, in particular of a vehicle, the element comprises a base element a foamable part, and an opening for receiving a penetrating element. A wing is arranged on the base element, the opening is open at the side and an actuator which moves the wing when the penetrating element is introduced is arranged on the wing.
