20080277920 | Banjo Joint Gasket with Bolt Retention Feature and Method of Preparing the Assembly - An assembly is provided for retaining a fluid coupling and fastener, and includes a deflectable gasket having upper and lower washers each with an annular opening and interconnected by a deflectable strap. When the strap is deflected, the fastener passes through the coupling and openings with minimal interference. The strap exerts a return force for engaging the washers with the fastener upon release. Tangs on the washers engage the fastener, and one of the washers forms a seal against an external surface. The openings have axially unaligned center points when the strap is undeflected. A method is also provided for preparing a fluid coupling subassembly for attachment to an external surface, including providing a gasket with deflectable portions, positioning a fluid coupling in the space therebetween, deflecting the portions sufficiently to insert a fastener into the coupling, and retaining the coupling on the fastener when the portions are not deflecting. | 11-13-2008 |
20150337912 | TEMPERATURE COMPENSATED TORQUE LIMITING VALVE - A flow limiting and temperature compensated orifice assembly includes a valve body having an orifice and a plurality of exterior bypass channels or openings. The valve body is disposed in a complementary cylindrical chamber in a housing in the fluid line which also receives a bi-metallic disc and a rubber washer. The bi-metallic disc is disposed adjacent one end of the body and defines a center opening which aligns with the orifice opening. In a first, higher temperature position or state, the bi-metallic disc engages the adjacent end face of the body and closes off flow through the exterior channels and allows fluid flow only through the flow limiting and thus torque controlling orifice. In a second, lower temperature position or state, the bi-metallic disc has flipped and moved away from the end face of the body and allows fluid flow through the exterior bypass channels as well as the orifice opening. | 11-26-2015 |

20130118612 | CLACK VALVE ASSEMBLY - A clack valve assembly comprising: a valve seat comprising an opening; a bearing comprising a recess with a base, a mouth, and a pair of side walls between the base and the mouth; a lid comprising a lid plate and a shaft, the shaft being received in the recess of the bearing; and a shaft retaining member which closes the mouth of the recess in the bearing, thus retaining the shaft within the recess. The shaft and the lid plate are integrally formed elements of a single part. The shaft can rotate within the recess to enable the lid to rotate from a closed position in which the lid engages the valve seat and covers the opening, to an open position in which the lid lifts away from the valve seat enabling fluid to flow through the opening in the valve seat. | 05-16-2013 |

20100234851 | TOOL FOR EXTRACTING A PIN - A tool for extracting a pin from a substrate comprises a first lever arm with a body part having a cavity in which the free end of a pin can be received, and a second lever arm which can pivot relative to the first lever arm. A jaw component is provided within the body part which can be actuated from an unlocked position in which a pin within the jaw component can slide freely past the jaw component, and a locked position in which the pin is gripped by engagement of the jaw component with the side wall of the pin, and a support is provided which can slide relative to the body part, in a direction towards the substrate from which the pin is to be extracted. Initial movement of the first lever arm relative to the second lever arm causes the jaw component to be actuated from its unlocked position to its locked position so that an inserted pin is gripped by the jaw component. Continued movement of the first lever arm relative to the second lever arm causes the support to slide relative to the body part, so that an inserted pin which is gripped by the jaw component is displaced relative to the substrate. | 09-16-2010 |

20130030539 | PATELLA ORTHOPAEDIC SURGICAL METHOD - A method of surgically preparing a patella for implantation of a patella prosthetic component is disclosed. | 01-31-2013 |
20130035693 | PATELLA RESECTION GUIDE WITH LOCATING FEATURES AND METHOD OF USING THE SAME - An orthopaedic surgical instrument that includes a patella resection guide is disclosed. The patella resection guide includes a body having a substantially planar upper surface that defines a patella cutting guide surface and a first jaw having a first tooth, and a second jaw positioned opposite the first jaw. The second jaw is movable relative to the first jaw and includes a second tooth extending toward the first tooth that defines an axis along which the second jaw is moveable relative to the first jaw. The patella cutting guide surface defines a resection plane that extends through a patient's patella when the patella is positioned between the first jaw and the second jaw. | 02-07-2013 |

20130079789 | PATELLA DRILLING SYSTEM - A patella drilling system includes a clamp and a patella drill guide. The clamp includes an arm with a pointed tip that is received in a dimple on the surface of the patella drill guide and another arm with a bone-gripping member spaced from the tip. The clamp is used to hold the patella drill guide firmly against the resected posterior surface of the patella while the surgeon drills into the patella to form holes for mounting pegs on the implant. The clamp may allow the patella drill guide to be pivoted while clamped so that the orientations of the guide bores may be optimized. The system includes an optional cap that may be used on the pointed tip of the clamp to hold the implant firmly in place while the bone cement sets. | 03-28-2013 |
20130184712 | PATELLA RESECTION ASSEMBLY - A patella resection assembly comprises a handle, slide member and two claw members. The slide member is movably mounted on the handle and includes two diverging arms. Inner edges of the diverging arms contact outer edges of the claw members so that distal movement of the slide member causes the claw members to move toward each other and close around a patella. The claw members and slide member have teeth for grasping the patella as the claw members move together. The claw members also have flat co-planar surfaces for guiding the path of a saw blade during resection of the patella. | 07-18-2013 |
