Hip implant registration in computer assisted surgery
ActiveUS20100261998A1Shorten the time to eliminateHigh precisionSurgical navigation systemsJoint implantsArray data structureCoxal joint
A computer assisted surgical navigation system and method is disclosed for registering the position of prosthetic hip joint components. Elements are applied to the pelvis and femur, generating a three-dimensional array. These two arrays combine to derive a reference point representing the native joint. A tracking device with a pre-determined shape and dimensions that precisely articulate with an acetabular cup component generates a third three-dimensional array. The device has a further shape and dimensions that independently articulate precisely with a neck portion of a femoral component, which represents a prosthetic joint center that is independently registered in the system. The tracking device concurrently registers the three dimensional positions of the femoral and acetabular prosthetic components, along with the prosthetic joint center and the native joint center, respectively enabling alterations in three dimensional location of the leg length and offset prior to reduction of the prosthetic joint.

InactiveUS7033473B2Improves analyte recovery efficiencyReduces and eliminates “ relaxation time ”Sludge treatmentElectrostatic separatorsElectricityAnalyte
Methods and apparatuses for discriminating matter utilizing dielectrophoresis combined with magnetophoresis. A sample having one or more constituents is injected into an inlet port of a chamber. A carrier medium flow is initiated at the inlet port to establish a flow within the chamber. A dielectrophoretic force is generated to act on the constituents of the sample. A magnetophoretic force is generated to act on the constituents of the sample. The dielectrophoretic force and magnetophoretic forces are balanced to position the constituents within the chamber. The constituents are then collected at one or more outlet ports of the chamber according to the dielectric and magnetic characteristics of the constituents. The constituents may be collected as a function of time-of-exit from the chamber and / or position within the chamber.

A valve control device corrects a change rate of an opening degree of a valve in accordance with engine rotation speed when deposit elimination operation is performed. The valve control device corrects an inclination between a positive maximum opening degree and a negative maximum opening degree of the valve in accordance with the engine rotation speed when the deposit elimination operation is performed. Thus, when the engine rotation speed is low and a noise accompanying the deposit elimination operation becomes more audible, the change rate of the opening degree of the valve is reduced. As a result, the noise accompanying the deposit elimination operation is reduced and annoyance for vehicle occupants is reduced.

A continuously reinforced composite mandrel is molded by creating an excess of material through a tapered cone and pressing a male thread profile on the exterior of the mandrel at the excess. To form the female thread, an integral component can be used as a separate component in the mandrel to mold the shape of the threads. The integral component is a sufficiently thin shell to transfer mechanical loads to the composite mandrel (i.e. the integral component does not carry significant mechanical loads). Alternatively, to form female threads, a coil is wrapped with the composite material when the mandrel is formed, and the coil is compressed or twisted to an expanded width to form the female threads inside the mandrel. When the coil is relieved, it can be removed from the formed threads.
