Patent number: 8870903Abstract: A device for sampling and/or analyzing blood or other body fluid of a subject. A housing contains a plurality of lancets and optionally includes test elements to take up a sample of blood, an evaluation system and a display. A complete system that can be handled as a single device, for example in the form of a wristwatch, includes a multiplicity of test elements and lancets, which can be brought successively to a working position to perform multiple measurements. A cassette or carrier includes multiple lancets and/or test elements, for insertion into the device.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2006Date of Patent: October 28, 2014Assignee: Facet Technologies, LLCInventors: Richard W.

Patent number: 7713371Abstract: The invention relates to a method for applying flat material web sections (28) to a first flat web of material (6) which is displaced in the direction of the machine having a first web speed during the production of hygiene articles or medical articles. The dimensions of the flat material web sections (28), in the direction of the machine, are smaller than the measurements of the articles which are to be produced. The flat material web sections (28) of an endless web (8) are separated in the cut-and-place method and are arranged on the first flat material web (6). The endless web (8) is fed at a second web speed to a second cutting station in the direction of a cutting roller (18). According to the inventive method, a front section (26) of the endless web (8) is applied against a surface section (24) of an anvil roller (22) which co-operates with the cutting roller (18), the surface section being curved less than the periphery (34) of the anvil roller (22).Type: GrantFiled: December 8, 2004Date of Patent: May 11, 2010Assignee: Paul Hartmann AGInventors: Armin Lohrengel, Ralf Sprick, Bernd Frank

Publication number: 20060178600Abstract: The invention relates to a blood analyzer (2) that comprises a device (6) for taking a blood sample, equipped with pricking elements (8, 114, 122, 232), and test means (10) for receiving a minimum amount of blood. Said test means (10) and the pricking elements (8, 114, 122, 232) are disposed on a support (50) which can be rotated with respect to the housing base (4) and can be inserted in the analyzer along with said support. The test means (10) and the pricking elements (8, 114, 122, 232) can be brought into working positions (32, 34) relative to the housing base that are different from one another by rotating the support (50).Type: ApplicationFiled: February 20, 2003Publication date: August 10, 2006Inventors: Gwenn Kennedy, Christopher Ruf, Avi Robbins, Richard LeVaughn, Jason Heath, Stephanie Campbell, Wolfgang Ostertag, Armin Lohrengel, Herbert Stohr

Patent number: 7044133Abstract: The invention relates to a folded medical cover (30) for use in operation rooms, especially for instrument tables (2) or operation tables or for the extremities of a patient. The cover comprises a tubular section (36) with at least one first open end (32) for putting the cover onto the table (2) or the extremity, and has a second, preferably closed end (34). The tubular section (36) is folded at least once transverse to its longitudinal direction (16) and the second end (34) functions as a stop (53) when the cover is pulled over the table or the extremity. The aim of the invention is to simplify handling of such a cover.Type: GrantFiled: January 18, 2002Date of Patent: May 16, 2006Assignee: Paul Hartmann AGInventors: Armin Lohrengel, Theresia Knecht, Ralf Sprick
