Abstract: The assembly comprises two or more catheter tubes fused together to form a fused catheter bundle. Each tube has at least one lumen extending longitudinally through the catheter from its distal end to its proximal end and at least one of said tubes comprises a pressure resistant lumen. The tubes are fused together by use of heat & pressure generated by heat shrinkable tube slides positioned over a segment of the catheter tubes while mandrels are positioned within each tube lumen. After cooling, the heat shrinkable tube may be removed and the mandrels removed such that and the fused catheter bundle is formed. One or more of the tubes may be of a different hardness, material and/or color. A distal end of the fused catheter bundle can be split free floating, stepped or tapered tipped. A non fused portion may form catheter extension legs.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a catheter assembly and the method for forming the same. The catheter includes an elongated shaft having proximal and distal sections, and further includes an inflatable balloon on a portion of the distal shaft section and in surrounding relation thereto. The balloon has proximal and distal tapered regions and an intermediate region longitudinally disposed therebetween. The proximal and distal tapered regions each has a first end adjacent the intermediate region and a second end opposite the first end. The wall thickness of the proximal and distal tapered regions, may, increase from the first end to the second end. A fluid-tight bond is formed between the catheter shaft and at least a section of at least one of the proximal and distal tapered regions at the second end thereof. The bond is preferably a fusion bond. At least a portion of the either or both the proximal and distal tapered regions in the bond interface is at least partially crystalline. Preferably, the crystallinity at the interface is greater than the crystallinity of the starting material from which the balloon is formed.

Abstract: A structural connection is obtained between elements (21, 22) of the reinforcement texture to be assembled by using at least one blocking means (23). The latter is made of a fibrous texture that is compacted prior to being inserted in a corresponding lodging formed in at least one of the elements of the reinforcement texture in order to conform with the shape of the lodging. The blocking means (23) then locks itself into the lodging by relaxation of its fibrous texture, as a result of a removal of the prior compacting. The blocking means can be in the form of a dowel (23) inserted inside aligned lodgings formed in the elements (21, 22) of the reinforcement texture to be assembled, or may alternatively be part of one of the elements of reinforcement texture to be assembled.

Abstract: A balloon catheter which is assembled by a process of selectively concentrating laser energy along an annular fusion bond site at contiguous surface portions of a length of catheter tubing and a shaft or neck portion of a dilatation balloon. The laser energy wavelength, and the polymeric materials of the balloon and catheter, are matched for high absorption of the laser energy to minimize conductive heat transfer in axial directions away from the bond site. This minimizes crystallization and stiffening in regions near the bond site, permitting fusion bonds to be located close to the proximal and distal cones of the dilatation balloon while preserving the soft, pliant quality of the cones.
