  • Publication number: 20110004257
    Abstract: An implant structure is provided. The implant structure includes an implant body and a screw portion. The screw portion is coupled to a second surface of the implant body such that the implant structure can be implanted into an injured bone via the screw portion. Thus, the implant body partially replaces and thereby repairs the injured bone. Threads of the screw portion have at least a barb unit for preventing the implant structure from rotating in the loosening direction of the screw portion. The at least a barb unit also prevents the implant structure from loosening and displacement so that the service life of the implant structure can be extended.

  • Publication number: 20110004245
    Abstract: A spine fixation device is provided. The spine fixation device includes a bone screw, a fixation carrier, and a first locking member. The fixation carrier is rotatably coupled to a fixation unit of the bone screw. The first locking member conjugates the fixation carrier and the bone screw together. A screw unit of the bone screw is implanted into a vertebra. As the fixation carrier is rotatably coupled to the bone screw, the bone screw remains fastened to the vertebra while the fixation carrier is rotated. Through rotational adjustment of the fixation carrier, U-shaped openings of the fixation carrier are adjustable in direction. Thus, the disposition angle of a rod disposed in the U-shaped openings is easily adjustable by rotating the fixation carrier. As a result, the rod can fit an angle of the spine while surgical complexity is reduced.

  • Publication number: 20110004249
    Abstract: A flexible spinal fixation device and a rod thereof are provided. The flexible spinal fixation device includes at least two bone screws and a rod. The rod is fixedly coupled to the bone screws, and the bone screws are implanted into a patient's vertebrae. The rod has a flexible part and is thereby rendered flexible. After the flexible spinal fixation device is implanted into the patient's spine, the patient's spine can stoop as in a healthy condition. Moreover, vertebral stress around an injured vertebra and force between the bone screws and the rod can both be reduced. The flexible spinal fixation device also prevents premature vertebral aging and has an extended service life.

  • Patent number: 7843694
    Abstract: An electronic device having a heat-dissipating module includes a housing and an electronic component (e.g., a central processing unit) disposed within the housing. The heat-dissipating module is used for dissipating heat of the electronic component, and includes a two-phase flow heat-dissipating loop and a thermoelectric cooling component. The two-phase flow heat-dissipating loop can be a loop heat pipe (LHP) or a capillary pumped loop (CPL). The thermoelectric cooling component includes a cooling portion and a heat-generating portion respectively to cool or heat necessary portions of the two-phase flow heat-dissipating loop, or directly cool the electronic component through the cooling portion, thereby increasing the heat-dissipation effect of the two-phase flow heat-dissipating loop.
