The present disclosure relates to single tooth or full arch dental restoration. In cases where patients have insufficient bone stock for conventional root-form dental implants, current solutions often fail to restore function. The present disclosure describes a transalveolar dental implant for single tooth or full arch dental restoration. The transalveolar dental implant is comprised of a post and a bone plate, the bone plate having a contoured portion fabricated to match the topography of a bony surface of the facial skeleton. Through primary fixation of the contoured portion of the bone plate, the transalveolar dental implant improves function and outcomes in affected patients.

An electric actuator has a housing, an electric motor mounted on the housing, a speed reduction mechanism, and a ball screw mechanism that converts the rotational motion of the electric motor to axial linear motion of a drive shaft. An annular groove is formed on an open end of the blind bore of the housing. The sleeve is axially immovably secured by a annular stopper ring fit into the annular groove. The stopper ring has one notch and a recess formed on its inner circumference near each of its two ends of the stopper ring. A contour of each recess has a circular arc portion and a flat portion. The circular arc portion has a predetermined radius of curvature. The flat portion tangentially extends from the circular arc portion. A width of the opening of the recess is smaller than a diameter of the circular arc portion.

An enclosure for an implantable cardiac or neurostimulation device includes a bulk metallic glass alloy. In some arrangements, the enclosure is configured to house one or more components of an implantable pacemaker. In some arrangements, the enclosure is configured to house one or more components of an implantable defibrillator.

A method for gas atomization of a titanium alloy, nickel alloy, or other alumina (Al.sub.2O.sub.3)-forming alloy wherein the atomized particles are exposed as they solidify and cool in a very short time to multiple gaseous reactive agents for the in-situ formation of a passivation reaction film on the atomized particles wherein the reaction film retains a precursor halogen alloying element that is subsequently introduced into a microstructure formed by subsequent thermally processing of the atomized particles to improve oxidation resistance.

A piece of flexible porous metal foil is a sheet made of porous metal material using solid solution alloy, face-centered cubic metal simple substance or body-centered cubic metal simple substance as matrix phase. The thickness of the sheet is 5 to 200 micrometers, the average aperture thereof is 0.05 to 100 micrometers, the porosity thereof is 15-70%, and the sheet is made by sintering a homogeneous film. The preparation method for the flexible porous metal foil comprises: (1) preparing thick turbid liquid with raw material powder forming the metal porous material by using dispersing agent and binding agent; (2) injecting the turbid liquid into a mold cavity of a film manufacturing fixture, and drying the turbid liquid to form a piece of homogeneous film; (3) putting the film into a sintering manufacturing fixture matching with the film in shape, then sintering the film, and taking the film out after sintering and obtaining the flexible porous metal foil. The flexible porous metal foil made by the above method can be used in many fields, and have ideal performance in flexible and chemical stability.

A manufacturing method of a multilayer shell-core composite structural component comprises the following procedures: (1) respectively preparing feeding material for injection forming of a core layer, a buffer layer and a shell layer, wherein the powders of feeding material of the core layer and the shell layer are selected from one or more of metallic powder, ceramic powder or toughened ceramic powder, and are different from each other, and the powder of feeding material of the buffer layer is gradient composite material powder; (2) layer by layer producing the blank of multilayer shell-core composite structural component by powder injection molding; (3) degreasing the blank; and (4) sintering the blank to obtain the multilayer shell-core composite structural component. The multilayer shell-core composite structural component has the advantages of high surface hardness, abrasion resistance, uniform thickness of the shell layer, stable and persistent performance.

By melting a shaping material in which a metal powder and a binder are mixed and by carrying out injection molding (primary shaping) in an injection mold, an injection molded body, or an intermediate shaped body are produced. The injection molded body or the intermediate shaped body is placed by a transfer mold and is subjected to a gravity shaping (secondary shaping) with a transformation. A sintered body is manufactured by carrying out debindering and sintering to the injection molded body.
