Abstract
Description


FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an expandable exoskeleton for a balloon catheter showing our new design, with the expandable exoskeleton in an unexpanded state, the expandable exoskeleton capable of placement over a balloon of a balloon catheter;



FIG. 2 is a first side elevational view of the expandable exoskeleton for a balloon catheter in the unexpanded state;



FIG. 3 is a second side elevational view of the expandable exoskeleton for a balloon catheter in the unexpanded state;



FIG. 4 is a third side elevational view of the expandable exoskeleton for a balloon catheter in the unexpanded state;



FIG. 5 is a fourth side elevational view of the expandable exoskeleton for a balloon catheter in the unexpanded state;



FIG. 6 is a distal end view of the expandable exoskeleton for a balloon catheter in the unexpanded state;



FIG. 7 is a proximal end view of the expandable exoskeleton for a balloon catheter in the unexpanded state;



FIG. 8 is first side elevational view showing our new design, with the expandable exoskeleton for a balloon catheter in an expanded state;



FIG. 9 is a second side elevational view of the expandable exoskeleton for a balloon catheter in the expanded state;



FIG. 10 is a third side elevational view of the expandable exoskeleton for a balloon catheter in the expanded state;



FIG. 11 is a fourth side elevational view of the expandable exoskeleton for a balloon catheter in the expanded state;



FIG. 12 is a distal end view of the expandable exoskeleton for a balloon catheter in the expanded state; and,



FIG. 13 is a proximal end view of the expandable exoskeleton for a balloon catheter in the expanded state.


The broken lines illustrate unclaimed portions and form no part of the claimed design.
