    摘要: A bone anchor has a central bore allowing for uniquely attaching a suture thereto. The bore is shaped so that it is wider at the bottom of the anchor than at the top of the anchor. A peg fits within the bore. The suture is looped around the peg and the peg is inserted into the bore. Friction between the bore, peg and suture holds the suture in place. A suture for use with the bone anchor may be formed by fusing together the ends of a plurality of fibers to form a loop.

    摘要: The invention reduces friction and wear in partial hip prosthesis by combining optimized geometry of the articulation and surface treatment of the prosthetic component. The acetabulum is reamed to the bone. One of the articulating surfaces - either that of the reamed acetabulum, or that of the femoral head prosthesis is a-spherical so that a fluid-filled gap is formed at the area of major load transfer. The fluid-filled gap is sealed by an annular area of contact, over which the concave and the convex components are congruent. The preferred surface treatment is by diamond-like coating, which results in very low coefficient of friction and high abrasion resistance against the bone. The prosthetic head is fixed to the femur by either a conventional stem, a perforated shell, or a femoral neck prosthesis screwed onto the femur so that it is partially covered by bone and partially exposed on the medial-inferior aspect, where it abuts the reamed cortex of the calcar region.

    摘要: The invention increases load capacity and stability of radial bearings by modifying the geometry of the bearing in the transverse cross section so as to split the conventional, single contact zone into two contact zones, each preferably offset by about 45 degrees from the load axis. Depending on the application, one or the other of the paired bearing components is axially asymmetric. The needed shape can be pre-machined into a bearing component, produced by permanent deformation of an axially symmetric component, or induced by assembly into/onto housing/shaft of the rotating members. Expected gain in load bearing capacity is about 40%; dynamic stability can also be significantly improved, which is of particular interest in fluid film lubricated journal bearings.
