Patent number: 11964142Abstract: A syringe assembly includes a syringe and a tamper evident cap disposed over a Luer connection of the syringe, the tamper evident cap having a main body that defines a proximal end defining an opening, a distal end opposite the proximal end along the axial direction, an outer surface, and an inner surface opposite the outer surface that defines a passage to receive a tip cap and the Luer connection, where the tamper evident cap is spaced from the tip cap. The main body further defines a frangible connection between the proximal and distal ends of the main body. The frangible connection can break under a force applied to the distal end of the tamper evident cap such that the proximal end of the tamper evident cap remains engaged with the syringe when the frangible connection breaks.Type: GrantFiled: April 16, 2020Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: Fresenius Kabi USA, LLCInventors: Christopher J. Murray, Anthony Ferraro, Gang Ju, Robert Speek

Publication number: 20220417665Abstract: An audio transducer includes a frame, a magnet coupled to the frame, and a voice coil axially aligned with the magnet. The voice coil can be configured to receive a flow of electric signals from an amplifier, and, in response to the received flow of electric signals, correspondingly move a diaphragm toward or away from the magnet. The audio transducer can further include a collar coupled to the voice coil. The collar can have a flange extending radially outwardly from the voice coil. The audio transducer can further include a spider having a radially outer portion coupled to the frame and a radially inner portion coupled to the flange of the collar.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 22, 2022Publication date: December 29, 2022Inventors: Paul MacLean, Anthony Ferraro

Patent number: 9325363Abstract: Disclosed is a weatherproof bulkhead mount that includes a weatherproof bulkhead housing having a portion sized to pass through a surface of a waterproof, sealed enclosure to an inside space of the enclosure and a portion sized to remain on the surface. The mount has a connector in the housing that provides electrical connection for an active component and is accessible from the outdoor environment, a circuit board in electrical connection with the connector for providing electrical communication between the connector and the inside space, and a removable cap to provide access to the connector when removed and to provide a weatherproof seal for the connector when not removed. Preferably, the “active” component socket is a SIM socket. Preferably, the cap has a push/pull grip, an elastic tether and a tether retaining ring. The tether retaining ring can also function as a weatherproof bulkhead gasket against the weatherproof bulkhead.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 2014Date of Patent: April 26, 2016Assignee: ERICSSON INC.Inventor: Anthony Ferraro
