Patent number: 8703476Abstract: The present invention relates to a cartridge for the detection of the presence, absence and/or amount of a target nucleotide sequence in a sample comprising one or more nucleic acid sequences. The cartridge comprises a first component and a second component being connectable to each other, the first component comprising at least a first fluid opening and a first sealing surface and the second component comprising at least a second fluid opening and a second sealing surface. Upon connection of the first and second component the first and second fluid opening are placeable in fluid communication and the first and second sealing surfaces are placeable against each other to seal the fluid communication between the first and second fluid opening. The invention is characterized in that the cartridge comprises biasing means for biasing the second sealing surface in the direction of the first sealing surface.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2006Date of Patent: April 22, 2014Assignee: Biocartis SAInventors: Ronald Cornelis De Gier, Danny Genius Aldegonda Schaefer, Adrianus Wilhelmus Dionisius Maria Van Den Bijgaart, Chris Van Haag, Michiel De Jong

Patent number: 6473918Abstract: Carriers for medical facilities, in particular patient tables, sometimes require a large range of displacement. This situation occurs, for example, in interventional MRI where a patient is to be transferred from an operating table to an MRI table which is situated at some distance therefrom. Components of the table may not form obstacles on the floor of the room and the stiffness and stability of the table construction must be maintained. A carrier for medical facilities includes two adjacent box-shaped spaces provided in the floor of the treatment room, said spaces being separated by a partition. One space accommodates only two rails which carry the pedestal of the table but no other components of the displacement mechanism for the table. The other space contains the further components of the displacement mechanism. A guide member protrudes through the partition, via a sealing device so as to guide the movement of the table.Type: GrantFiled: December 8, 2000Date of Patent: November 5, 2002Assignee: Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V.Inventor: Danny Genius Aldegonda Schaefer

Publication number: 20010003218Abstract: Carriers for medical facilities, in particular patient tables, sometimes require a large range of displacement. This situation occurs, for example, in interventional MRI where a patient is to be transferred from an operating table 14 to an MRI table 10 which is situated at some distance therefrom. Components of the table 14 may not form obstacles on the floor of the room and the stiffness and stability of the table construction must be maintained. According to the invention two adjacent box-shaped spaces 30, 38 are provided in the floor of the treatment room, said spaces being separated by a partition 42. One space 30 accommodates only rails 26a,b which carry the pedestal 20 of the table 14 but no other components of the displacement mechanism for the table. The other space 38 contains the further components of the displacement mechanism. A guide member 44 protrudes through the partition, via sealing means 56, so as to guide the movement of the table.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 8, 2000Publication date: June 14, 2001Inventor: Danny Genius Aldegonda Schaefer
