Filed:

Jul 29, 1993

Appl. No.:

8/098857

Inventors:

Chih I. Lin - Diamond Bar CA

International Classification:

A61B 1756

US Classification:

606 61

Abstract:

An intervertebral locking device comprises one spiral elastic body, two bracing mounts and two sets of locking members. The two bracing mounts are fastened respectively to both ends of the spiral elastic body. The two sets of locking members are fastened respectively with the two bracing mounts such that each set of the locking members is anchored in one of the two vertebrae adjacent to a vertebra under treatment. The spiral elastic body and the vertebra under treatment evince similar elastic qualities, i. e. similar deflection characteristics. A plurality of bone grafts affinitive to the vertebra under treatment are deposited in the chambers of the spiral elastic body and in the spaces surrounding the spiral elastic body.

Abstract:

Multi-RET actuators include a plurality of shafts that have respective axially-drivable members mounted thereon. Each of axially-drivable member is mechanically linked to a respective one of a plurality of phase shifters. The multi-RET actuator further includes a motor having a drive shaft and a gear system that is configured to selectively couple the motor to the respective shafts. The gear system is configured so that rotation of the drive shaft in a first direction creates a mechanical linkage between the motor and a first of the shafts and rotation of the drive shaft in a second direction that is opposite the first direction rotates the first of the shafts.
