Patent number: 9724030Abstract: A fluid handling device includes a receiving container with a piston arranged therein in a displaceable manner, such that the volume of a fluid receiving reservoir may be changed by a displacement of the piston. In addition, the fluid handling device includes an actuation mechanism configured to displace a carrier bearing upon actuation of the former. Finally, the fluid handling device includes a spring mechanism configured to transfer a force from the carrier bearing to the piston so as to effect, in response to displacement of the carrier bearing in a first direction, a displacement of the piston within the receiving container such that a volume of the fluid reservoir is increased.Type: GrantFiled: October 29, 2013Date of Patent: August 8, 2017Assignee: Smiths Medical Deutschland GmbHInventor: Joerg Weber

Publication number: 20060278293Abstract: The invention relates to a pressure measuring line, particularly for invasive blood pressure measurement, which presents a wall made of a flexible material, which surrounds a passageway. The wall consists particularly of at least one inner hose and an outer hose enveloping the former, where the material of the inner hose is harder than the material of the outer hose, and the wall thickness of the inner hose is less than the wall thickness of the outer hose. The inner side of the outer hose is in full-surface contact with the outer side of the inner hose.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 13, 2006Publication date: December 14, 2006Applicant: SMITHS MEDICAL DEUTSCHLAND GMBHInventors: Jorg Weber, Bernd Beck

Patent number: 6916010Abstract: The medical regulating valve for adjusting the flow in an infusion or transfusion procedure has a housing (2), and a valve chamber (21) into which an inlet connecting piece and an outlet connecting piece (22, 23) open. A rotating piece has a cylindrical valve plug (41) which can be inserted in the valve chamber (21) to form a seal between the plug and the chamber. The valve plug, has, on its outer periphery, at least one groove (42, 43) opposite the connecting pieces (22, 23) connecting the connecting pieces with one another in terms of flow and having a cross-section changing in the peripheral direction. An insert (3) having the shape of an annular disc overlaps the valve chamber (21) and has, on its side facing the rotating piece (4), a number of markings (35, 36, 37) lying on concentric circles. Provided on the rotating piece (4) are a number of windows (45, 46, 47) which are offset with respect to each other in the peripheral and radial directions, each being opposite one of the markings (35, 36, 37).Type: GrantFiled: October 29, 2003Date of Patent: July 12, 2005Assignee: Smiths Medical Deutschland GmbHInventors: Bernd Beck, Jörg Weber
