Publication number: 20240025017Abstract: Knife sharpener systems and methods are provided. In one exemplary embodiment, a knife sharpening system can include a support structure configured to hold a knife having a handle and a blade extending therefrom, and a carriage assembly mounted on the support structure. The carriage assembly can have a sharpening element that is configured to sharpen a cutting edge of the blade. The carriage assembly can be movable relative to the knife blade to cause the sharpening element to apply a force to the cutting edge of the knife blade.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 3, 2023Publication date: January 25, 2024Inventors: Eric Arthur Miller, JR., Nathaniel R. Lavins, Joshua D. Anthony, Orlando Soto, Ross Richardson

Patent number: 11806839Abstract: Knife sharpener systems and methods are provided. In one exemplary embodiment, a knife sharpening system can include a housing configured to receive a knife blade at a proximal end thereof and a sharpening element movably mounted to the housing and configured to sharpen a cutting edge of a knife blade by moving relative to the housing along and against a cutting edge of a knife blade disposed in the housing. The knife sharpening system can include an access door pivotally coupled to a distal end of the housing and configured to allow access to the sharpening element to allow removal of at least a portion of the sharpening element.Type: GrantFiled: August 4, 2021Date of Patent: November 7, 2023Assignee: SharkNinja Operating LLCInventors: Eric Arthur Miller, Jr., Nathaniel R. Lavins, Joshua D. Anthony, Orlando Soto, Ross Richardson

Publication number: 20230241299Abstract: A medicament preparation system includes a disposable cartridge with a flow path. Various sensors may be placed on the cartridge to measure qualities of the fluid flowing through the flow path. The sensors are placed in precise locations using various approaches that make manufacturing of the cartridge efficient and repeatable. A drain line that is susceptible to fouling may be preattached and various approaches are used to remove or reduce the fouling. An elastomeric contact can also be present in the medical preparation system and used in a conductivity measurement subsystem.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 7, 2023Publication date: August 3, 2023Applicant: NxStage Medical, Inc.Inventors: James M. Brugger, Jeffrey H. Burbank, Goetz Friederichs, Scott W. Newell, William J. Schnell, Orlando Soto
