  • Patent number: 12576268
    Abstract: Disclosed are highly compliant bioelectronic neural interface devices with hydrogel adhesion. Example devices include adhesion-promoting functional groups that facilitate enhanced electrical contact with the nerve without the need for continuous application of pressure. A transfer process may be used to fabricate the device using a sacrificial material (e.g., polyacrylic acid (PAA)) that has tunable solubility in aqueous media, helping avoid the need for harsher release chemicals that may affect the properties of the hydrogel. The transfer process also helps achieve electrode contacts that are flush with a surface of the device and facilitate more intimate contact with the nerve. A gradual change in Young's modulus from a stiff contact pad region to a more compliant electrode contact region may be achieved via a varied amount of an epoxy-based material (such as SU-8) and with silicone-based material (such as polydimethylsiloxame (PDMS)) to encapsulate the device cable.

  • Patent number: 12264697
    Abstract: A fastener structure and an assembly method thereof are introduced. The fastener structure includes a body and a fastener. The body has a limiting structure and is for assembling at a first object. The fastener and the body are movably assembled. The fastener has a limiting portion, which coordinates with the limiting structure to limit a movement stroke of the fastener, so as to engage or disengage the fastener with or from a second object. Thus, the body can be assembled with the first object and the fastener can be engaged with or disengaged from the second object so as to complete quick coupling and separation of two objects, further achieving effects of repeated quick coupling and separation.
