Minimally invasive mitral valve repair method and apparatus
Owner:EDWARDS LIFESCIENCES CORP
Minimally invasive mitral valve repair method and apparatus
The present invention is directed to an apparatus and method for the stabilization and fastening of two pieces of tissue. A single device may be used to both stabilize and fasten the two pieces of tissue, or a separate stabilizing device may be used in conjunction with a fastening device. The stabilizing device may comprise a probe with vacuum ports and / or mechanical clamps disposed at the distal end to approximate the two pieces of tissue. After the pieces of tissue are stabilized, they are fastened together using sutures or clips. One exemplary embodiment of a suture-based fastener comprises a toggle and suture arrangement deployed by a needle, wherein the needle enters the front side of the tissue and exits the blind side. In a second exemplary embodiment, the suture-based fastener comprises a needle connected to a suture. The needle enters the blind side of the tissue and exits the front side. The suture is then tied in a knot to secure the pieces of tissue. One example of a clip-based fastener comprises a spring-loaded clip having two arms with tapered distal ends and barbs. The probe includes a deployment mechanism which causes the clip to pierce and lockingly secure the two pieces of tissue.

Blind fastener with high strength blind head and high clamp and high shear load resistance
A blind fastener with a pin having a pin shank which extends through a cylindrical main sleeve and expansion sleeve whereby it can be gripped and pulled by an installation tool with the pin having an enlarged pin head at the blind end of the pin shank. The expansion sleeve is located between the pin head and the inner end of the main sleeve and is adapted to move into the inner or blind end of the main sleeve to form a first tulip shaped blind head for clamping workpieces together in response to a relative axial force applied between the sleeves and pin by engagement of the pin head with the expansion sleeve. As the axial force is increased the pin head is moved into the expansion sleeve to form a second tulip head to further clamp the workpieces and to secure the pin, main sleeve and expansion sleeve together at that end and is moved closely adjacent the workpiece surface at the blind side to form a high strength blind head.

Sealed, blind fastener assembly
A sealed attachment fastener assembly with a receiving member and a cap that can be inserted into an opening in a work piece and fixed therein from only one side of the work piece. A portion of the fastener assembly on the blind side of the work piece is collapsible into a flange. In addition, another portion of the fastener assembly is contemporaneously radially expandable within the opening of the work piece to at least rotationally secure the fastener assembly with respect to the work piece. The radial expansion will result in a high interference fit of the fastener in the work piece, which may enhance the fatigue of the installation. A cap completes the fastener assembly to substantially prevent fluid from leaking through the fastener assembly opening. The cap can be assembled with the receiving member after the internal threads within the receiving member have been machined.

Blind rivet with extended adhesive reservoir
This invention provides a design of an adhesive encapsulated blind rivet for joining an assembly of overlying parts having an accessible side and an inaccessible side. The rivet comprises a rivet head and tubular rivet body. A mandrel is inserted through the open end of the tubular rivet body and through a mandrel hole in the rivet head. A mandrel head engages the end of the tubular body. The tubular body is filled with a mass of latent adhesive around the mandrel. The rivet body is longer than the thickness of the parts to be joined to accommodate a substantial amount of adhesive for expulsion through holes in the rivet body located within the thickness of the assembled parts. The portion of the rivet body extending beyond the blind side of the assembled parts is weakened in a pattern of corrugations or other bands for folding of the end of the tubular body in setting the blind side of the rivet and expelling the larger quantity of adhesive against and between the riveted parts.
