Patent number: 10921021Abstract: A blood warmer (10) has a first heating plate (12) and a second heating plate (14) as well as an exchangeable conductor (18, 20, 22, 24) for blood, which is arranged between the first heating plate (12) and the second heating plate (14). The blood warmer (10) has an inlet (66) and an outlet (68) for blood to which the conductor (18, 20, 22, 24) is fluidically connected. Due to the roughness of the surface (46) of the conductor (18, 20, 22, 24), an intermediate space (50) remains between the first heating plate (12) and/or the second heating plate (14) and the conductor (18, 20, 22, 24). A medium (52), which has a higher thermal conductivity than air, is at least partially statically arranged in the intermediate space (50). The blood warmer (10) may also have an electromechanical oscillating circuit and/or a vibration motor.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2017Date of Patent: February 16, 2021Assignee: WWT Technischer Geraetebau GmbHInventors: Klaus Schmider, Axel Stihler, Wolfgang Theilacker-Beck, Matthias Theilacker

Patent number: 9435478Abstract: A fluid warmer (10) for temperature control of a medical fluid (14) guided in a fluid tube (12) and a method for operation thereof have a sensor (38), which determines a leakage current (40) via a functional grounding conductor (FE). Two supply connection conductors (22a; 22b) for a resistance heating element (18) as well as the functional grounding conductor (FE) are each equipped with a switch (30a; 30b; 30c) which can be controlled by a control device (32). The switches (30a; 30b; 30c) can be put into their open switching state jointly within a defined time interval by means of a control device (32) on occurrence of a leakage current (40) that is greater than or equal to a defined maximum threshold current magnitude (ITon, IToff).Type: GrantFiled: August 13, 2013Date of Patent: September 6, 2016Assignee: WWT Technischer Geraetebau GmbHInventors: Wolfgang Theilacker-Beck, Matthias Theilacker, Klaus Schmider

Patent number: 8567627Abstract: The invention is a small container for storing and discharging liquid and/or pasty materials. The container has a cylindrical tank with a cleaning portal mounted in the top-most portion thereof, and a base further comprising a discharge hopper. The base is configured with a wedge shape and is manufactured from material capable of being deep-drawn. The base is produced in one piece with the discharge hopper. The discharge hopper is shaped jointly with the base by means of a cupping procedure and is sloped at an angle of approximately 12°. An upper area of the base is molded with a first stroke of the cupping procedure and the drainage hopper, as an eccentric drainage cup, is molded with a second stroke. The container can have a stacking support assembly mounted on an upper portion of the container, and a stacking acceptance assembly mounted on a lower portion of the container.Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 2009Date of Patent: October 29, 2013Assignee: Ucon AG Containersysteme KGInventor: Klaus Schmider
