20090171434 | PROSTHESIS LOADING DELIVERY AND DEPLOYMENT APPARATUS - Prosthesis loading and deploying systems include a capturing device with a proximal stent-engaging member and an elongate pulling member extending distally from the stent-engaging member. With a prosthesis or stent in a relaxed or enlarged-radius state, the pulling member is guided distally through a delivery catheter, pulling the stent-engaging member and prosthesis into the catheter lumen to progressively radially compress the prosthesis to a reduced-radius state. Simultaneously the distal end region of an elongate control device is maintained within a proximal region of the prosthesis, so that the prosthesis is compressed about the control device distal end region as these components enter the catheter. When the prosthesis is compressed about the control device, it tends to follow axial movement of the control device, thus to afford reliable positional control of the prosthesis inside the catheter by manipulating the control device. | 07-02-2009 |
20140094895 | STENT DELIVERY SYSTEM - Delivery systems for polymeric tubular implants, kits that include such delivery systems, and methods of treating patients by implanting tubular implants using the delivery systems.

20110066515 | Automated electric plug-in station for charging electric and hybrid vehicles - Provided is an automated plug-in station for charging electric powered vehicles. The station includes a plug apparatus with a plug head that connects to an adapter on the electric powered vehicle and configured to pass electric charge to the battery of the electric powered vehicle. The plug apparatus extends automatically from a basin once proper alignment is established by a positioning system. Prior to charging, the plug apparatus is enclosed within the basin by a cover door which opens by an actuator when a vehicle enters the station; and when charging is complete, the plug automatically disconnects from the vehicle and withdraws back into the basin. The plug-in station also provides for receiving and processing payments at a payment system in the station. | 03-17-2011 |

20140088577 | DEVICES AND METHODS FOR LASER SURGERY - Small diameter tools are provided, and methods of use described, to facilitate less invasive surgical procedures employing laser beams. Such tools include distal tips that enhance the precise placement of optical waveguides, as well as enable cutting and dissecting procedures. A rotary coupler allows precise control of flexible conduits in which waveguides may be disposed. Waveguide tips with conical features protect waveguide ends and allow unobstructed propagation of the laser beam out of the waveguide. A preferentially bending jacket for waveguides may be used to control an orientation of a waveguide disposed therein. Surgical waveguide assemblies may include various combinations of these components. | 03-27-2014 |

20100114777 | Administration of Dual Component Financial Instruments - Methods and systems for administering a dual component financial instrument (DCFI) are described. The DCFI includes a revolving loan component and one or more installment loans. A holder of the DCFI account can use the revolving loan to pay for expenses, e.g., educational expenses. At predetermined intervals, e.g., annually on the anniversary date of the DCFI account, a new installment loan is automatically created on behalf of the account holder to pay off the revolving loan. Automatically creating an installment loan to pay off the revolving loan frees up the revolving loan for use by the borrower to pay for expenses during the next interval, e.g., the next school year, and allows the lender to quickly and efficiently securitize portions of the funds provided to the borrower. | 05-06-2010 |
