Electrical Barrier And Moisture Seal For An Implanted Medical Device

View page
US Patent:
7942686, May 17, 2011
Filed:
Mar 19, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/727955
Inventors:
Garth W. Boyd - Ellington CT, US
Aaron Engel - Wethersfield CT, US
Dana Dubuc - Tarpon Springs FL, US
Michael E. Poppy - New Richmond WI, US
Michael E. Grant - Cambridge MN, US
Assignee:
Deringer-Ney, Inc. - Bloomfield CT
International Classification:
H01R 13/52
US Classification:
439271, 439909, 607 37
Abstract:
Multiple seals, internal to a connector block, provide for connecting an implantable medical device and an implanted cable or lead. The forces to engage sealing or releasing the seals are derived from a mechanism so they can be relaxed to permit ease of insertion or withdrawal of a lead, or can be increased to tightly seal against fluid migration, and to provide an electrical insulation between adjacent conductors of the lead and connector block. During implant of the medical device, the lead is inserted and a shaft is rotated with a tool to engage the seals. Later, the seals can be released by rotating the control shaft in the opposite direction to allow extraction of the lead from the connector block. The seals therefore are able to provide improved sealing without increasing the insertion or the extraction forces for the lead.

Electrical Connection Apparatus

US Patent:
8187015, May 29, 2012
Filed:
Feb 24, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/034044
Inventors:
Garth W. Boyd - Ellington CT, US
Aaron Engel - Wethersfield CT, US
Dana Dubuc - Tarpon Springs FL, US
Michael E. Poppy - New Richmond WI, US
Michael E. Grant - Cambridge MN, US
Assignee:
Deringer-Ney, Inc. - Bloomfield CT
International Classification:
H01R 13/15
US Classification:
439263, 439717, 439909, 607 37
Abstract:
An electrical connection apparatus includes an electrical connection contact and an adjustment component within an interior of the electrical connection apparatus. The electrical connection contact is operatively coupled to the adjustment component so that the electrical connection contact adjusts between an insertion position and a contact position in response to rotating the adjustment component. A slider movably arranged within the interior of the electrical connection apparatus causes the electrical connection contact to move in response to rotation of the adjustment component. The electrical connection apparatus includes one or more blocks, and the adjustment component, electrical contact and slider are arranged within an interior of the one or more blocks.

Electrical Connection System And Method For Implantable Medical Devices

US Patent:
8251731, Aug 28, 2012
Filed:
Sep 15, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/882460
Inventors:
Garth W. Boyd - Ellington CT, US
Michael Poppy - New Richmond WI, US
Michael Grant - Cambridge MN, US
Assignee:
Deringer-Ney, Inc. - Bloomfield CT
International Classification:
H01R 4/50
US Classification:
439347, 439281, 439359
Abstract:
A multiple contact connector interfaces between an implanted medical device and an implanted cable or lead. A connector connects between multiple implanted leads, each of which has multiple independent conductors. The connection system is a planar array of male connector pins on one portion, and a matching array of female connector receptacles on a second portion. Alignment via alignment features and pressing together the portions allows pins to engage with the receptacles providing a secure electrical connection. Sealing features on the connector apparatus seal out external fluids and isolate fluid present in the connector apparatus prior to mating, which electrically isolates each pin and its corresponding receptacle from other pin and receptacle pairs. Latching features retains the relative position of the pins, receptacle, and the positioning of the fluid seals, and is reversible for removal of the connector.

Visual Indicator Of Proper Interconnection For An Implanted Medical Device

US Patent:
8206175, Jun 26, 2012
Filed:
Aug 16, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/857236
Inventors:
Garth W. Boyd - Ellington CT, US
Aaron Engel - Wethersfield CT, US
Dana Dubuc - Tarpon Springs FL, US
Michael E. Poppy - New Richmond WI, US
Michael E. Grant - Cambridge MN, US
Assignee:
Deringer-Ney, Inc. - Bloomfield CT
International Classification:
H01R 3/00
US Classification:
439490, 439717, 439909
Abstract:
During implant of an implantable medical device, implanted cables or leads are inserted to a connector block. An insertion indicator provides the user with a visual indication the cables or leads have been correctly inserted into the connector block, which enables the implanted medical device to properly deliver treatment or receive signals via the implanted cables or leads. The insertion indicator may be provided by a mechanical indicator optically viewable once the lead has been correctly inserted, and/or may be provided by an electrically activated light indicator illuminated by a power source associated with the connector block or with a connector tool used to connect the lead or cable to the connector block upon correct insertion of the lead or cable. The insertion indicator may be permanently or removably disposed on the connector block, a connector tool, and/or a can associated with the connector block.

US Patent:
20080274651, Nov 6, 2008
Filed:
Apr 2, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/061246
Inventors:
Garth W. Boyd - Ellington CT, US
Aaron Engel - Wethersfield CT, US
Dana Dubuc - Tarpon Springs FL, US
Edward F. Smith - Madison CT, US
Michael E. Poppy - New Richmond WI, US
International Classification:
H01R 9/22
US Classification:
439717
Abstract:
An electrical connection apparatus includes at least one stackable block operably coupleable to another stackable block, at least one pin receiving portion defined by an inner wall within the stackable block, and at least one electrical connection contact having a C-shaped contact portion with elastic properties disposed within the pin receiving portion and a lead portion disposed at a location exterior to the stackable block. The electrical connection apparatus may further include an adjustment component and an adjustment component receiving portion defined by in inner wall within the stackable block. In addition, sliders may be arranged on the stackable block and may engage with tabs formed on the at least one electrical connection contact. The sliders may be moved to a raised or lowered position in order to move the at least one electrical connection contact between a contact and an insertion position.
