Methods And Devices For Soft Tissue Dissection

US Patent:
2013031, Nov 21, 2013
Filed:
Apr 29, 2013
Appl. No.:
13/872766
Inventors:
Charles Anthony Pell - Durham NC, US
Eric Torr Espenhahn - Cary NC, US
Ryan Moody - Durham NC, US
Assignee:
Physcient, Inc. - Durham NC
International Classification:
A61B 17/00, A61B 17/02
US Classification:
606190
Abstract:
A differential dissecting instrument for differentially dissecting complex tissue is disclosed. The differential dissecting instrument comprises a handle and an elongate member having a first end and a second end, wherein the first end is connected to the handle. The differential dissecting instrument comprises a differential dissecting member configured to be rotatably attached to the second end and further comprises at least one tissue engaging surface. The differential dissecting instrument comprises a mechanism configured to mechanically rotate the differential dissecting member around an axis of rotation, thereby causing the at least one tissue engaging surface to move in at least one direction against the complex tissue. The at least one tissue engaging surface is configured to selectively engage the complex tissue such that the at least one tissue engaging surface disrupts at least one soft tissue in the complex tissue, but does not disrupt firm tissue in the complex tissue.

Underwater Assemblies With Flooded Actuators And Methods For Using Same

US Patent:
2009017, Jul 9, 2009
Filed:
Jan 6, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/348956
Inventors:
Ryan Moody - Durham NC, US
International Classification:
B63G 8/08, B63G 8/00
US Classification:
114338, 114312
Abstract:
An underwater assembly includes: a hull having an internal cavity that is in fluid communication with the external environment; an inductive actuator mounted within the cavity of the hull; a current source mounted in the hull and electrically connected to the actuator; and a movable member connected with the actuator and positioned external of the hull. Provision of current to the actuator causes the movable member to move relative to the hull.

Systems And Methods For Providing Connectivity In An Underwater Environment

US Patent:
2007029, Dec 27, 2007
Filed:
Dec 5, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/566899
Inventors:
Frederick Vosburgh - Durham NC, US
Ryan Moody - Durham NC, US
Mathieu Kemp - Durham NC, US
International Classification:
H04B 11/00
US Classification:
367131000
Abstract:
A system for providing connectivity in an underwater environment includes a linking system, a target and a linking member. The linking system includes a first base and an unmanned, submersible mobile unit. The target is remote from the first base. The linking member is connected to one of the first base and the target. The mobile unit is operative to autonomously convey the linking member through the underwater environment from the first base to the target and/or from the target to the first base to interconnect the first base and the target via the linking member. According to some embodiments, the linking member is a flexible connecting line.

Submersible Vehicles And Methods For Transiting The Same In A Body Of Liquid

US Patent:
8127704, Mar 6, 2012
Filed:
Mar 20, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/408177
Inventors:
Frederick Vosburgh - Durham NC, US
Ryan Moody - Durham NC, US
Assignee:
iRobot Corporation - Bedford MA
International Classification:
B63G 8/14
US Classification:
114245
Abstract:
A submersible vehicle for use in a body of liquid includes a vehicle body, a pair of fins coupled to the vehicle body on opposed sides thereof, and a dihedral angle control system. The dihedral angle control is system operative to vary a fin dihedral angle of each of the fins.

Submersible Vehicles And Methods For Transiting The Same In A Body Of Liquid

US Patent:
2012018, Jul 19, 2012
Filed:
Jan 31, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/363011
Inventors:
Frederick Vosburgh - Durham NC, US
Ryan Moody - Durham NC, US
International Classification:
B63G 8/14, B63G 8/08, B63B 21/66
US Classification:
114330
Abstract:
A submersible vehicle for use in a body of liquid includes a vehicle body, a pair of fins coupled to the vehicle body on-opposed sides thereof, and a dihedral angle control system. The dihedral angle control is system operative to vary a fin dihedral angle of each of the fins.
