Content
In the illustrative example of FIGS. 1-12, the suture locking member 160 is retained in the proximal member 104 by a retainer 180 having an outer surface engaging the axial through bore 156 of the proximal member in axial sliding relationship and an axial aperture 182 receiving the locking member 160 in axial sliding relationship. The retainer 180 is also arranged to engage the anchor body 102 in axial force transmitting relationship. In the illustrative example of FIGS. 1-12, the retainer 180 is generally cylindrical and the axial aperture 182 extends through the retainer 180 from a proximal end 183 to a distal end 184. The outer diameter of the distal end 184 of the retainer 180 is larger than the diameter of the passageway 114 in the implant body 102. The distal end of the retainer 180 is operable to engage the proximal end of the implant body 102. The retainer 180 includes opposed superior and inferior “U”-shaped slots 186, 188 opening distally and aligning with the superior and inferior “U”-shaped openings 158, 159 in the proximal member 104 when the retainer 180 is seated in the proximal member 104. The retainer 180 includes a distal facing shoulder 190 operable to engage a proximal facing shoulder 192 formed in the through bore 156 of the proximal member to prevent the retainer from being completely expelled distally from the proximal member 104.
