735 results about "Radial surface" patented technology

As with the radial contour, certain features of the radial surface are simplified to ease the problem of registration. The angle between radials in a slice is kept constant, and slices themselves are evenly spaced. It is also assumed that each radial will intersect the surface only once.

Pedicle screw assembly and methods therefor

A method for stabilizing a spine includes providing a coupling element having upper and lower ends, a rod receiving opening adapted to receive an elongated stabilizing rod, a bore extending through the lower end and a conical-shaped seat surrounding the bore adjacent the lower end; providing a fastener having upper and lower ends, a head having a radial surface, and at least one anchoring element between the lower end of the fastener and the head; assembling the fastener with the coupling element so that the lower end of the fastener passes through the bore of the coupling element and the radial surface of the head engages the conical-shaped seat. The method also includes anchoring the fastener to bone; moving the coupling element relative to the fastener for capturing the elongated stabilizing rod in the rod receiving opening; and urging the captured stabilizing rod toward the head of the fastener so that the rod contacts the head and forces the radial surface of the head against the conical-shaped seat of the coupling element for locking the coupling element from further movement relative to the fastener.

Sliding body expanding broadhead

An expanding or expandable broadhead tip for arrows wherein a sliding body is provided to carry the blades of the arrow and allow for rotation of the blades to an expanded position. When in folded or inflight position, the rearmost ends of the blades rest on a radial surface of a stationary or positionable stop having a camming front surface and which are held in such position by a retainer. When the tip strikes an object, the sliding body moves rearwardly causing the ends of the blades to override the hold down force of the retainer and as rearward motion continues, the blades are cammed outwardly by the camming front of the stop.
