An operable implant adapted to be implanted in the body of a patient. The operable implant comprising an operation device and a body engaging portion, the operation device comprises an electrical motor comprising a static part comprising a plurality of coils and a movable part comprising a plurality of magnets, such that sequential energizing of said coils magnetically propels the magnets and thus propels the movable part. The operation device further comprises an enclosure adapted to hermetically enclose the coils of the static part, such that a seal is created between the static part and the propelled moving part with the included magnets, such that the coils of the static part are sealed from the bodily fluids, when implanted. |

1. An operable implant adapted to be implanted in a body of a patient, the operable implant comprising an operation device and a body engaging portion, the operation device comprises an electrical motor comprising a static part comprising a plurality of coils and a movable part comprising a plurality of magnets, such that sequential energizing of said coils magnetically propels the magnets and thus propels the movable part, wherein the operation device further comprises an enclosure adapted to hermetically enclose the coils of the static part, such that a seal is created between the static part and the propelled moving part with the included magnets, such that the coils of the static part are sealed from the bodily fluids, when implanted, wherein the operable implant further comprises a gear system adapted to receive mechanical work having a first force and velocity as input, from the movable part of the electrical motor, and output mechanical work having a different force and velocity, wherein the gear system comprises:
an operable element, a first gear having the shape of a hollow cylinder, comprising a first number of teeth, on the peripheral outside thereof, and a second gear having the shape of a hollow cylinder, comprising a greater number of teeth than the first gear, on the inside surface thereof, wherein the operable element is adapted to engage the inside of the first gear, such that the outside of the first gear is pressed against the inside of the second gear such that the teeth of the first gear are interengaged with the teeth of the second gear in at least one position interspaced by positions at which the teeth are not interengaged, and wherein the operation of the operable element advances the positions and thereby causes relative rotation between the first gear and the second gear. |
