Patent attributes
A spinal implant includes a chassis extending along a first axis and including a first thread. A first member extends along a second axis and is pivotably coupled to the chassis. A second member extends along a third axis between and is pivotably coupled to the chassis. A rack includes opposite top and bottom surfaces. A first spur is coupled to the first member such that the first spur engages the top surface. A second spur is coupled to the second member such that the second spur engages the bottom surface. An actuator includes second thread that engages the first thread such that rotation of the actuator move the implant between a first orientation in which the second and third axes extend parallel to the first axis and a second orientation in which the second and third axes extends at an acute angle relative to the first axis.
