    摘要: A relay device transfers information between a sensor system, which measures a physiological characteristic level of a user, and a fluid delivery system, which infuses a fluid into a user. The relay device includes a sensor system receiver for receiving communications from the sensor system in a sensor system format. The relay device also includes a processor for processing the communications from the sensor system and converting the communications for transmission in a delivery system format. The relay device further includes a delivery system transmitter for transmitting the converted communications in the delivery system format to the fluid delivery system. The sensor system and delivery system formats may utilize different frequencies and/or different communication protocols for communications transmitted between the sensor system and the fluid delivery system through the relay device.

    摘要: For an implantable medical devices, a system is provided for welding electrically conductive ribbon, typically stainless steel, to electrically conductive wire, typically platinum, the melting point of steel being substantially lower than that of platinum. An aperture is formed in the ribbon having an opening smaller than that of the wire. The ribbon is engaged with the wire such that the aperture is generally coextensive with the wire. Thereupon, a pulse laser beam is directed transversely of the ribbon through the aperture and onto the wire to simultaneously melt the wire and the ribbon and to create a homogeneous mix of the molten steel and platinum in the region surrounding the aperture. Thereafter, operation of the laser beam is discontinued to allow solidification and thereby achieve a welded connection between the ribbon and the wire.

    摘要: A method is presented of welding an electrically conductive termination component having first and second opposed surfaces to an electrically conductive elongate member extending to a terminal end. The method comprises the steps of forming a substantially circular aperture through the termination component and defined by a rim having a diameter substantially equivalent to the transverse dimension of the elongate member. The terminal end of the elongate member is positioned proximate the termination component overlying the rim of the aperture such that the longitudinal axis of the elongate member is generally coplanar with the center of the aperture. Then, a laser beam is directed transversely of the termination component through the aperture therein toward and onto the elongate member to simultaneously melt the elongate member and the termination component in the region of the aperture and create a mixture of the molten material of both the elongate member and the termination component within the aperture. Upon the cessation of operation of the laser beam, the mixture of the molten material solidifies within the aperture and between the termination component and the elongate member to thereby achieve a welded connection between the elongate member and the termination component. In a preferred embodiment, a ball member is formed at an end of the elongate member and the rim of the aperture in the termination component has a diameter smaller than that of the ball member and the ball member is positioned in engagement with the rim of the aperture.

    摘要: Particularly applicable to implantable stimulation devices, a system is provided for laser-welding an electrically conductive elongate member, typically a lead, or elongate member, interconnecting operating components of a stimulation device. A bore is formed in a termination component for the slidable reception of the elongate member. Also formed in the termination component is an aperture in communication with the bore and having an axis which extends in a direction transverse that of the axis of the bore. The elongate member is positioned so it extends through the bore in the termination component and is thereby coplanar with and intersects the axis of the aperture. Thereupon, a laser beam, which may be from a pulse laser, is directed transversely of the elongate member through the aperture in the termination component and onto the elongate member to simultaneously melt the elongate member and the termination component in the region of the aperture and create a homogeneous mix of the molten material of both the elongate member and the termination component within the aperture. Then, operation of the laser beam is discontinued to allow solidification of the homogeneous mix of the molten material within the aperture to thereby achieve a welded connection between the elongate member and the termination component. The aperture in the termination component must be large enough to allow the laser beam to pass therethrough yet small enough to allow the melt of the rim of the aperture and the elongate member simultaneously.

    摘要: A defibrillator patch lead having a connecting element interconnecting an electrical conductor and a wire mesh electrode pad. The connecting element includes a body portion which has a slot cut therein into which a portion of the wire mesh electrode is inserted and securely bonded, preferably by laser welding. The connecting element further includes a female connector portion which is designed to mate with a male core sleeve. The core sleeve includes a channel for receiving a first conductor therein, which is then electrically and mechanically connected (e.g., by either welding or crimping). The core sleeve also includes an orifice for receiving a second conductor, which is subsequently electrically and mechanically connected (e.g., by either welding or crimping) between the core sleeve and the connecting element. Advantageously, the combination of the core sleeve, two conductors, and the connecting element have superior pull strength over conventional methods of attachment. Furthermore, the use of two conductors provides additional redundancy in the event one conductor fails.
