Fasteners having coordinated self-seeking conforming members for implanting into a cavity such as a hole, tube, or hard tissue defect are provided. An actuator mechanism translates applied force to conform members (60) of a plurality of members to the cavity. The fasteners may be used for implanting a prosthetic device into hard tissue of humans or animals, for anchoring a device while the device is being worked on, or for centering a device in a hole or tube, such as in well technology. The mechanism operates expanding members (60) so that they independently or dependently conform and apply a controlled and known pressure to surrounding materials.
L'invention concerne des dispositifs de fixation ayant des éléments s'adaptant d'une manière spontanée et cordonnée à un trou, une cavité tubulaire ou à un défaut d'un tissu dur. Un mécanisme d'actionnement transforme la force appliquée pour adapter une pluralité d'éléments à la cavité. Le dispositif de fixation peut être utilisé pour l'implantation d'une prothèse dans le tissu dur d'humains ou d'animaux, pour ancrer un dispositif pendant que celui-ci est transformé, ou pour centrer un dispositif dans un trou, un tube ou un puits. Le mécanisme actionne des éléments qui se détendent d'une manière interdépendante ou d'une manière dépendante et qui appliquent une pression connue et contrôlée sur le matériau qui les entoure.
