摘要:
A connector circuit assembly for use in an implantable medical device, and a method of making the assembly that includes a core portion formed of a thermoplastic material using either an injection molding process or a machining process. This core portion is adapted to be fitted with at least one electrically-conductive circuit component such as a connector member, a set-screw block, or a conductive jumper member. In one embodiment of the invention, the core portion includes multiple receptacles or other spaces that are adapted to be loaded with the various circuit components. The core assembly is positioned into a second-shot mold assembly, and a second thermoplastic material is injected into the mold so that the second thermoplastic material extends over and adheres to the core portion and the circuit component.

摘要:
A connector assembly for coupling to an implantable medical device includes a core element formed of a first thermoplastic material shaped to receive a connector member for receiving a lead. The connector assembly further includes a circuit member positioned adjacent to the core element. The circuit member includes a portion extending along the core element to the connector member and an antenna structure extending over a portion of the core element outer surface.
摘要:
A connector for clamping lead bodies into connector bores in implantable medical devices has several alternative embodiments. In each there is a handle that has a fixed relationship with an axle member that connects through the connector block perpendicular to the long axes of the connector bores for the leads. A large, manually operable flag or handle member clicks into position to lock the lead in by positioning a saddle portion against the lead body in the bore. The handle may be split into legs or the axle may be split into legs and the space between the legs filled with medical adhesive if desired. Likewise a soft material elastomer may surround the saddle portion to prevent rough contact with the lead body.
