Implant delivery with modified detachment feature and pull wire engagement
Abstract:
An embolic implant includes a detachment feature configured to engage and be released from a delivery member's engagement system. The engagement system can include a loop wire extending through an opening of the detachment feature a pull wire extending through the loop wire to secure the detachment feature to a delivery tube of the delivery member. The detachment feature can include a distal extension configured to engage a distal end of the pull wire to inhibit the pull wire from moving distally into the implant. The detachment feature can also include a sleeve to align the pull wire to the distal extension and/or provide a friction force against the pull wire to inhibit longitudinal movement of the distal end of the pull wire.
