US Patent:
7606002, Oct 20, 2009
Filed:
May 26, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/441966
Inventors:
Gary J. Berscheit - Watertown MN, US
Joel B. Douglas - Hutchinson MN, US
Shawn P. Henze - Delano MN, US
Ryan D. Kariniemi - Cokato MN, US
Mark M. Kiviahde - Buffalo MN, US
Duane A. Lundin - Litchfield MN, US
Assignee:
Hutchinson Technology Incorporated - Hutchinson MN
International Classification:
G11B 5/55
US Classification:
3602451, 360245
Abstract:
A disk drive head suspension, including a load beam formed from one or more layers of material, and a flexure mounted to the load beam. The load beam has an offset aperture and stiffening rails, and is characterized by a Z-height dimension between the one or more layers of material and the free end edges of the stiffening rails. The flexure has a slider-receiving region extending at least partially through the offset aperture and located within the Z-height dimension of the load beam. A load point structure is provided on the load beam and/or the flexure for restraining movement of the slider receiving region and for permitting slider-receiving region to pivot in under aerodynamic forces.

Full-Rail Suspension With Shearing Fracture Detab

View page
US Patent:
8146233, Apr 3, 2012
Filed:
Aug 27, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/199322
Inventors:
Ryan D. Kariniemi - Cokato MN, US
Patrick R. LaLonde - Waite Park MN, US
Ryan B. Sefkow - Spring Park MN, US
Assignee:
Hutchinson Technology Incorporated - Hutchinson MN
International Classification:
B23P 21/00
US Classification:
29469
Abstract:
A multi-piece head suspension assembly is manufactured from a semi-finished suspension product. The semi-finished suspension product includes a load beam having two side edges, a distal end, and a proximal end opposite the distal end. The semi-finished suspension product also includes a beam carrier strip connected to the proximal end by one or more tabs. Each tab includes a detaching region that has a lower shear strength than other regions of the tab. Rails are formed on the side edges of the load beam, and the semi-finished suspension product is attached to a hinge assembly at the proximal end of the load beam. A shear load is applied to the one or more tabs to cause the one or more tabs to fracture at the detaching region.

Multi-Layer Device With Gap For Treating A Target Site And Associated Method

View page
US Patent:
20100106235, Apr 29, 2010
Filed:
Oct 27, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/258899
Inventors:
Ryan KARINIEMI - Cokato MN, US
Matthew C. HEIDNER - Maple Grove MN, US
John C. OSLUND - Blaine MN, US
International Classification:
A61F 2/86
A61F 2/84
US Classification:
623 111, 623 113
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide medical devices and methods for treating a target site within the body. For example, a medical device includes a multi-layered structure comprising an inner layer disposed within an outer layer, wherein each of the inner and outer layers has respective inner and outer surfaces. The multi-layered structure further comprises at least offset located between the inner and outer layers or formed in the inner and/or outer layers to define at least one gap therebetween such that a majority of the outer surface of the inner layer is spaced apart from the inner surface of the outer layer. The multi-layered structure is configured to be deployed within a lumen such that at least a portion of the outer layer is configured to engage the lumen and the at least one gap is configured to promote thrombosis between the inner and outer layers.

Asymmetrical Medical Devices For Treating A Target Site And Associated Method

View page
US Patent:
20100121370, May 13, 2010
Filed:
Nov 11, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/268756
Inventors:
RYAN KARINIEMI - Cokato MN, US
International Classification:
A61M 29/00
B29C 53/60
US Classification:
606191, 156189
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide medical devices and methods for treating a target site within the body, such as for treating vascular abnormalities. For example, one embodiment provides medical device including a first tubular member that includes a first portion, a second portion, and a central portion disposed between the first portion and the second portion. Each of the first and second portions have a radius that is larger than that of the central portion, and the second portion has a preset, relaxed configuration in which a portion of the second portion has a partial discoid shape defined by an inversion of a portion of a discoid into itself.

Medical Device With Stiffener Wire For Occluding Vascular Defects

View page
US Patent:
20100211046, Aug 19, 2010
Filed:
Feb 18, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/372854
Inventors:
Daniel O. Adams - Long Lake MN, US
Ryan Kariniemi - Cokato MN, US
Brooke Ren - Maple Grove MN, US
Matthew C. Heidner - Maple Grove MN, US
International Classification:
A61M 25/00
US Classification:
604524
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide devices and methods for treating various target sites. For example, one exemplary device includes a tubular structure having proximal and distal ends and at least one layer of braided material configured to facilitate thrombosis. The tubular structure includes an end section at the proximal or distal end having a cross-sectional dimension that is larger than that of an opening of the target site. The device also includes a stiffener wire coupled to the tubular structure, wherein the wire is configured to extend at least partially through the opening and facilitate securing the end section over the opening. The tubular structure and stiffener wire include respective preset, expanded configurations and are configured to be constrained to respective reduced configurations for delivery to the target site and to at least partially return to their respective preset, expanded configurations at the target site when unconstrained.

Device And Method For Occluding A Septal Defect

View page
US Patent:
20120245623, Sep 27, 2012
Filed:
Mar 25, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/072337
Inventors:
Ryan Douglas Kariniemi - Cokato MN, US
Mathias C. Glimsdale - St. Michael MN, US
John Oslund - Blaine MN, US
Derek Randall Wise - New Brighton MN, US
International Classification:
A61B 17/00
US Classification:
606213
Abstract:
A device for occluding a septal defect is provided. In general, the occluding device has a contracted state that allows the occluding device to be received within a delivery device for deployment to the site of the defect and an expanded state that is achieved when the occluding device is deployed from the delivery device. The occluding device has a proximal portion, which may be substantially circular, a distal portion, which may be substantially ovaloid, and a connecting portion extending between the two. The distal portion may define first and second outer parts at opposite ends of the major axis, which may be bent or curved. The configuration of the proximal and distal portions allow the occluding device to securely engage the septal wall and be kept in position at the septal defect without causing substantial interference with the functioning of adjacent heart structures.

Device And Method For Delivering A Vascular Device

View page
US Patent:
20120245668, Sep 27, 2012
Filed:
Mar 25, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/072378
Inventors:
Ryan Douglas Kariniemi - Cokato MN, US
Mathias C. Glimsdale - St. Michael MN, US
International Classification:
A61F 2/84
US Classification:
623 111
Abstract:
A device and method for delivering a vascular device to a target site is provided that allows an orientation of the vascular device at the target site to be adjusted by a user. In general, the delivery device includes an outer tubular member, an intermediate tubular member within the outer tubular member, and an inner member that can move axially within the intermediate tubular member. Each of the members defines a proximal end and a distal end. The intermediate and outer tubular members are fixed at their respective proximal ends, but are not fixed at their proximal ends. Thus, a torque applied to the proximal end of the intermediate tubular member is at least partially transmitted to the distal end of the intermediate tubular member, allowing the user to rotate an attached vascular device by rotating the proximal end of the intermediate tubular member.
