Abstract
An electrode lead is provided having a distal side and a circumferential surface, the electrode lead comprising a plurality of interlocked filaments having a conductive core coated with a nonconductive coating and at least one 3D distinct conductive mass at the distal end, wherein the filaments in the conductive mass are having an exposed conductive core and wherein a portion of the filaments with the exposed conductive core are disposed on the circumferential surface. The 3d pattern of spaced-apart regions along or within the electrode lead, each one is a network of spaced-apart conductive segments determining together critical parameters of: directionality of the region and electrical property of the region.
Claims19
A method of producing an interlocked structure comprising:
- providing a machine capable of interlocking a plurality of filaments into said interlocked structure;
- providing a plurality of filaments, at least one of said filaments comprising a conductive core coated with a nonconductive coating;
- interlocking said plurality of filaments according to a premeditated program to form said interlocked structure;
- and
- inflicting an action onto at least a portion of at least one of said plurality of filaments during interlocking.
The method as claimed in claim 18, further comprising:
- a step of pulling the additional filaments from the hollow cylinder through the slot in a direction opposite to the direction of the interlocking of said plurality of filaments, and
- optionally cutting the additional filaments adjacent to the circumferential surface.
