63 results about "Reverse shoulder" patented technology

Surgical procedures, tools and implants are disclosed for both conventional and reverse shoulder implant surgeries. The improved procedures, tools and implants relate to humeral head resurfacing, humeral head resection for standard implants, humeral head resection for reverse shoulder implants, glenoid resurfacing for standard shoulder implants and glenoid resurfacing for reverse shoulder implants. 3D scans and x-rays are used to develop virtual models of the patient anatomy, identify patient specific landmarks for anchoring guide wire installation blocks, templates and drill guides. 3D scans are also used to design patient specific tools and implants for the shoulder implant procedures and to pre-operatively determine the appropriate inclination and retroversion angles.

An expandable shoulder trial for a reverse shoulder system is described. The trial includes a rotatably adjustable insert housed within a humeral cup. The insert has a proximal end and a distal end, the proximal end having a concave recess therein adapted to receive a glenosphere prosthesis. The distal end of the insert includes a shaft, the shaft having a helical groove disposed on at least a portion thereof. A distal end of the humeral cup is inserted in a humeral stem. The humeral cup has a proximal end including a recess therein, the recess defined by a circular wall. A guide pin protrudes from the circular wall and is adapted to engage the helical groove of the shaft of the insert. The proximal end of the insert may rotate along an axis toward the proximal end of the humeral cup and along the same axis away from the proximal end of the humeral cup.

The insert has a proximal end and a distal end, the proximal end having a concave recess therein adapted to receive a glenosphere prosthesis. The distal end of the insert includes a shaft, the shaft is substantially housed within the confines of the humeral cup. A distal end of the humeral cup is inserted in a humeral stem.

A prosthesis assembly is provided that includes a base member that has a helical structure and a cylindrical member opposite the helical structure. The cylindrical member is configured for direct connection with a reverse insert of a reverse shoulder assembly. The cylindrical member is configured for direct connection with a reverse insert spacer in some embodiments. The reverse insert can be inserted into a space defined at least in part by a wall of the cylindrical member and an inferior wall of the of the base member. The helical structure extends between a first end and a second end. The base member also can include one or more pathways. The pathway(s) is accessible from the second end and is directed toward the first end through the helical structure. The pathway is located inward of an outer periphery of the helical structure, e.g., adjacent to an inner periphery of the helical structure. The pathway extends in a space between successive portions of the helical structure. The prosthesis assembly can include a locking device that has a support member and an arm that projects away from the support member. The arm is configured to be disposed in the pathway when the support member is disposed adjacent to the second end of the base member. The arm is disposed through bone in the space between successive portions of the helical structure when the prosthesis assembly is implanted.

The invention discloses a bionic running four-leg robot, comprising legs, a front shoulder beam, a rear shoulder beam and a spine, wherein two ends of the spine are respectively fixed in the middles of the front shoulder beam and the rear shoulder beam, and the legs are respectively connected with the front shoulder beam and the rear shoulder beam; the lower part of the front shoulder part is fixedly connected with one end of a support plate located at the lower part of the spine, the other end of the support plate is suspended and is in cantilever beam shape, an electric motor is fixedly arranged on the support plate, the output shaft of the electric motor is fixedly connected with one end of a second connecting rod, the other end of the second connecting rod is hinged with one end of a first connecting rod, the other end of the first connecting rod is hinged with a waist sliding block fixed on the spine, and the waist sliding block passes through a vertically-arranged cylindrical guide rail with lower end fixed on the support plate; the electric motor drives the second connecting rod to rotate so as to drive the first connecting rod to rotate and further pull the waist sliding block to vertically slide along the cylindrical guide rail; and since the waist sliding block is fixedly connected with the spine, and the middle of the spine is in a lamina form and has flexibility, the vertical sliding of the waist sliding block drives the spine to vertically and synchronously bend along the vertical direction.

Embodiments of the present invention include a convertible prosthesis that is capable of conversion from a humeral head replacement to a reverse reconstruction without any removal of parts integrated into the patient's bony anatomy (e.g. implant stems). A desired overall implant inclination angle may be achieved by matching various implant stems with various reverse inserts, thus permitting a resection surface to be matched with an implant stem selection while also permitting a desired overall implant inclination angle to be achieved through the selection of an appropriate insert.

The invention discloses a bionic quadruped robot which comprises leg parts, a front shoulder beam, a back shoulder beam, a front spine and a back spine, wherein the front spine and the back spine form a spine; the leg parts comprise front and back two pairs of legs; the two pairs of legs are respectively connected with the front shoulder beam and the back shoulder beam by hip joints which are provided with pitching and side-sway two freedom degrees; one end, in a shape of a cantilever beam, of the front spine is horizontally fixed at the middle part of the front shoulder beam; the other end of the front spine is movably connected with the back spine; the back spine is fixed on the back shoulder beam; each leg is of an integral structure of a thigh and a shank; each thigh is a rigid plate; each knee and shank are formed by elastic steel plates; the back end of the front spine is in a shape of relatively wide rectangle; a through hole is formed in the center of the rectangle; a rubber ring is arranged in the through hole; the back end of the front spine is connected with the back spine by a long pin roll passing through the though hole and a nut; a gap is formed between the long pin roll and the rubber ring; the back end of the front spine is respectively fixed with upper, lower, left and right pins which freely and outwardly penetrate out of the frame of the back spine; each spin is sleeved by a spring.

The women's clothing of the present invention is preferably a sports brassiere to be worn in athletic activities. This brassiere comprises a front fabric portion for covering the chest section including the right and left breasts of a wearer, a back fabric portion which elastically stretches in the horizontal direction in a state of tension produced when wearing the brassiere, and a back shoulder fabric portion connected to the front fabric portion at the right and left shoulder portions of the wearer. The front fabric portion is constituted by layering two pieces of fabric and interposing a breasts protective fabric material therebetween. In the back shoulder fabric portion, the right and left shoulder portions are united in the rear center of the back shoulder fabric portion so as to be narrower than the space between the right and left shoulder portions. Also the back shoulder fabric portion has the Y-like shape, T-like shape, or X-like shape; but the shape of the back fabric portion is made such that its width becomes narrower at the middle, thus the disadvantage of “riding up” is not produced in the rear center.
