The present invention is directed to an inertial dampener for archery bows. The inertial dampener has a plurality of inertial pads disposed around a grip shaft and a plate contained within a riser beam and cavity therein. The plate is surrounded by inertial pads on both the posterior and anterior sides, so as to absorb longitudinal shock forces following release of the bow string. The shaft is surrounded by an inertia sleeve pad so as to absorb lateral and vertical forces following release of the bow string.

Inertial dampener riser for an archery bow

A femoral stem for use in hip replacement surgery, specifically hip replacement surgery in dogs and similar animals but also inclusive to implants used in humans. More particularly, the invention is directed to a femoral stem that includes a lateral bolt or post that protrudes through the cortex or wall of bone opposite the neck of the femoral stem. The lateral bolt or post reduces the occurrence of subsidence in implanted femoral stems. The lateral bolt or post provides an anchor point on the cortex or wall of bone as opposed to relying solely on the compression of the femoral stem against the wall of the bony canal of the femur being implanted.

Femoral stem and post system for hip prosthesis

A zero torque riser for an archery bow that provides an hemispherical pivoting connection between a hand grip and a riser body by using a ball and socket connection. A spherical head is variably mounted in a spherical socket on a hand grip. The spherical head is mounted on a variable position peg on the riser body.

A modular elbow prosthesis is disclosed, as well as a surgical approach and implantation technique, for using the prosthesis. The system is the first and only to allow for a, Biomechanically Anatomical, Nonconstrained, Compartmental (BANC) Elbow Arthroplasty. The modularity of the system allows it to be implanted as an unicompartmental or partial elbow replacement or a total elbow replacement. The modular elbow prosthesis for partial elbow replacement includes a cylindrical medial humeral component, a polyethylene ring thereon, and a semicircular medial ulnar component which mates with the polyethylene ring. Additionally, for total elbow replacement, the modular elbow prosthesis also includes a circular lateral humeral component, a polyethylene ring thereon, a semicircular lateral ulnar component, and a radial component. Implantation of the prosthesis is through a minimally invasive medial surgical approach with the aid of precision biomechanical guides. The application is well suited for canines, other quadrupeds, and people.
