Patent number: 11904135Abstract: A cannula insertion device is disclosed. The device includes a needle carriage, a rail device on which the needle carriage is slidable, a yoke having a channel, a linkage connected to the needle carriage and extending into the channel, a torsion spring with one end connected to the linkage, and locking device for locking the torsion spring in tension and maintaining the needle carriage and the linkage in a locked position prior to activation. Upon release of the locking device, the tension of the torsion spring is released, which causes the linkage to move in the channel and slide the needle carriage along the rail device. A catheter carriage may also be provided for actuation by the linkage.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2021Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: Becton, Dickinson and CompanyInventors: Russell Cole, Alyssa Jackson

Patent number: 10493201Abstract: An insulin infusion device (1A) is disclosed. The device includes a body (3A), cannula (70) housed in the body (1A), a cannula insertion device (10, 20, 23) and a cannula retraction device (20, 23, 30). When the cannula insertion device is activated, the cannula (70) extends at least partly out of the body (1A) and into an infusion site and when the cannula retraction device is activated after the cannula insertion device has been activated, the cannula (70) retracts into the body (1A).Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2015Date of Patent: December 3, 2019Assignee: Becton, Dickinson and CompanyInventors: Russell Cole, Michael Creighton, Shuichi Amano, Gary Reuther, Arthur Klotz, Alyssa Jackson

Patent number: 10265466Abstract: A fluid infusion device is provided with a cannula spring which functions as an introducer needle, a retraction return spring, and a fluid path. A hollow cannula tubing is wound, bent and sharpened into a shape which allows it to operate as an introducer needle, retraction spring and fluid path in an infusion device. A button is used to insert the introducer needle portion of the cannula spring and a soft catheter, and once the introducer needle portion and catheter have been fully inserted, an engagement between the button and post of the base of the infusion device releases the cannula spring such that the introducer needle portion of the cannula spring automatically retracts, leaving the catheter in the body. An end of the introducer needle portion of the cannula spring remains in fluid communication with the catheter in the body to provide an uninterrupted fluid path.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2015Date of Patent: April 23, 2019Assignee: Becton, Dickinson and CompanyInventors: Russell Cole, Michael Creighton, Alyssa Jackson, Arthur Klotz
