A radially compressible stator lets an implant motor pass through narrow channels, then expand in place to avoid flexible shaft wear.
A radially compressible motor passes through narrow channels, then expands in place to deliver power without flexible-shaft wear.
An electromagnetically biased shaft structure lets a blood pump start more easily while reducing rotating shaft wear, friction, and pressure.
A shaft sleeve with a receiving cavity and shaft hole stabilizes the blood pump shaft, simplifying assembly while reducing friction and wear.
A reflux perfusion path flushes and recycles bearing coolant to keep particles out of vessels while stabilizing motor temperature.
A rotatable locking plug socket secures the blood pump connection while reducing cable torsion, contamination risk, and cleaning burden.
A spring-locked, rotatable blood pump plug secures electrical connection, eases release, and reduces cable torsion and contamination.
