  • Patent number: 11989839
    Abstract: A method including executing a logical computing element (LCE) on a server. Worker LCEs are executed on the server. A first electronic file comprising geometry data in a first data structure is received at the controller LCE. An available worker LCE is identified, by the controller LCE, as an in-use worker LCE from among the worker LCEs. The geometry data is imported by the in-use worker LCE. A job instance is established by the in-use worker LCE. A rendering engine is launched by the in-use worker LCE. The rendering engine generates, for the job instance and using the geometry data, a dataset file in a second data structure different than the first data structure. The dataset file is returned by the in-use worker LCE to the controller LCE. The dataset file is returned by the controller LCE to a remote computer.

  • Publication number: 20240108844
    Abstract: A humidification system can include a heater base, a humidification chamber, and a breathing circuit. A cartridge can be removably coupled to the heater base. The cartridge can include various sensors, probes, sensor wire connectors, heater wire connectors, and/or other features. The cartridge can include features configured to mate with corresponding features on the humidification chamber and the heater base. The cartridge includes a memory, such as an EEPROM, or other suitable storage device. When the cartridge is installed on the heater base, the memory is electrically connected to a processor and/or memory of the heater base. Various models of cartridges can be produced for use with different humidification chambers, breathing circuits, and/or therapies. A connector can be configured to couple an inspiratory conduit to an outlet port of the humidification chamber. The connector can provide a pneumatic connection to the outlet port and an electrical connection to the cartridge.

  • Publication number: 20240100316
    Abstract: A circuit connector for a humidification system, the system comprising a base unit configured to be engaged by a humidification chamber. The circuit connector comprises an inlet to fluidly connect to an outlet of the humidification chamber to receive humidified gases therefrom, an outlet to sealably connect to or integral with a conduit for directing the humidified gases to a user, and an electrical terminal for electrically coupling the circuit connector to an electrical terminal associated with the base unit. The circuit connector may be releasably and lockably connectable to the outlet of the humidification chamber and/or orientation features may control orientation of component parts of the system as they are assembled.

  • Patent number: 11116857
    Abstract: A sanitizer apparatus and method for touchless sanitation of handheld objects such as mobile devices using ultraviolet radiation is provided. The sanitizer is configured for touchless operation to prevent cross contamination from a user physically touching the sanitizer. The sanitizer includes one or more UV radiation sources for exposing all external surfaces of the object being sanitized to UV-C radiation. A platform moves the object to be sanitized past the UV radiation sources and the interior of the sanitizer is reflective to ensure all external surfaces of the object receive the requisite dosage of UV-C radiation to inactivate microorganisms. The sanitizer includes one or more doors for restricting access to the interior of the sanitizer and preventing UV radiation from escaping the interior when the doors are closed. The sanitizer includes safety features to prevent the UV radiation sources from being switched on while the doors are open.
