  1. Pressure Maintenance Device for Gastric Lap-Band John Huidekoper Mark Fritz Chris Schroeder David Mayhew Andrew Koivuniemi

  2. Background Information • Obesity in United States • Sources of help • Gastric Bypass • Lap-Band Source:http://www.sptimes.com/2003/10/14/Worldandnation/Number_of__extremely_.shtml

  3. Design Problem • Loss of Pressure • Port Source: Why Pressure by Thomas Rauth, http://www.lapsf.com/images/lapbandlarge.jpg

  4. Our part • We need device that will internally: • Measure pressure • Maintain pressure • Step up pressure

  5. Device Basics • Lap-Band • Catheter and Port • Motor • Fluid filled bag (connected to catheter) • To be squeezed • Pressure sensor • Electronics • To measure pressure and control motor • Rf antenna • Step up pressure every 2-3 days

  11. GUI Optimization 2.0 cm 1.2 cm 1.9 cm 2.2 cm

  12. Torque Still Too High Problem: max torque of the smaller motors is 50 mNm Solution: create a gear train to decrease the torque

  13. Gearing

  14. Motor and Battery Selection • Looking for ~40 mNm torque • Size range 3 cm- 5cm • Pricing/Optimizing • Power Requirements • Search for Battery
