Publication number: 20210353850Abstract: A closed system for harvesting fat through liposuction, concentrating the aspirate so obtained, and then re-injecting the concentrated fat into a patient comprises as its main components a low pressure cannula having between about 7 to 12 side holes of about 1-2 mm by 2.0 to 4.0 mm, a spring loaded syringe holder with a constant force or coiled ribbon spring to apply a substantially constant pressure over the fill excursion of the plunger, and a preferably flexible collection bag which is also preferably graduated, cylindrical over most of its body and funnel shaped at its bottom, all of which are connected through flexible tubings to a multi-port valve. The multi-port valve has two flutter/duck bill valves which restrict the fluid flow to a one way direction which effectively allows the syringe to be used to pump fat out of a patient and into a collection bag in a continuous manner.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 30, 2021Publication date: November 18, 2021Applicant: Lipocosm, LLCInventors: Roger K.

Patent number: 8783665Abstract: An interchangeable bottletop aerator for controllably mixing air with a liquid contained in a bottle. The apparatus includes a receptacle and an interchangeable aerator module that is inserted into the receptacle. The receptacle engages and seals the bottle through a multi lumen cylinder that extends inside the narrow neck of the bottle. It has internal structures to adjust flow characteristics of the liquid and encapsulates the module. The module has multiple channels and sections to apply predetermined aeration and flow speed to the contained liquid. The inserted module can be replaced on demand with a different module to change the aeration parameters and adapt the aeration characteristics to various liquids. The interchangeable bottletop aerator presents a solution to the changing aeration requirements of different liquids like wine in a compact, easy to use, and easy to produce package by means of simply replacing and employing different modules inside the receptacle.Type: GrantFiled: October 25, 2012Date of Patent: July 22, 2014Inventors: Murat Kuru, Carlos V.

Publication number: 20020013516Abstract: A medical device includes a controller having a microcomputer and sensor for monitoring and collecting data relating to a patient's compliance with a recommended or prescribed regimen for use of the medical device. The controller is battery operated and is recharged by placing the controller into a cradle which has a wall plug for providing power to the cradle and the controller. The cradle also has a modem and phone connection so that as the controller rests in the cradle, compliance data contained within the controller is automatically transmitted by a modem over the phone line connection to a central location. The central location includes a data network for receiving the patient compliance data, processing and storing it in virtual patient files, and one or more web servers host a web site for displaying the patient data in its processed form. Access to the web site is secure and allows a patient to view her own data.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 16, 2001Publication date: January 31, 2002Applicant: Bio-mecanica, Inc.Inventors: Carlos V.
