It's not every day that a guy gets his 25th patent for his inventions. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)
After awhile, it's one after another, but I decided that 25 is a good number to be happy with, and for some reason, I am.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) The number might be as high as 40 someday, but I know of several others with 50-60 patents.... All in all, U.S. Patent Number 7,455,208 to Wales et al. is for a surgical stapling device that articulates or bends in the body. It's not easy when you have a shaft that is the size of a finger, and the surgeons want to use it for an endo-crowbar that that can resist a coupla hundred pounds applied at the tip. Add a hundred pounds of firing force to that and you have to take the loads out verrry carefully.

Andy,
It's a company owned by a company that rhymes with hey and hey. They design the products in the US, and manufacture them out of the US. It looks like a lot of engineering is now being outsourced to India. Three attorneys and two consultants!!! I used to run the invention review process for the large core business of the company (2 Billion a year), wrote a big chunk of the patents , and managed to invent. Didn't help. I now work for a law firm and write and prosecute patents. Ken |
