Patent number: 9579465Abstract: A simple method and device enabling a unit dose from a reservoir is provided. The dose is drawn into the reservoir and is then expelled from the device by depressing a plunger. The plunger has features which divide the dose into discrete intervals. As the plunger is moved during delivery, the features on the plunger and features connected to a barrel interact to provide for intermittent stops to the delivery. Other aspects of the device provide for reduced dead space, safety and selective interconnection with other devices. Thus, the device divides the dose.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 2015Date of Patent: February 28, 2017Assignee: Becton, Dickinson and CompanyInventors: Bruno Baney, Colin May, Patrick Dupuis, Frederic Perot

Patent number: 8062252Abstract: A medical device includes a syringe assembly and a shield system for delivering medicament to a patient. The syringe assembly includes a barrel defining a medicament reservoir, and a needle cannula coupled to the barrel and in fluid communication with the reservoir. The shield system has a hub coupled to the syringe barrel, a shield movably arranged on the hub, the shield being movable from a first position disposed from the needle cannula tip to a second position during insertion of the needle into a patient and movable from the second position to a third position covering the needle cannula tip after the needle cannula is removed from the patient. An urging member urges the shield to the third position upon removal of the needle cannula from the patient. A cover sleeve connected to the needle barrel surrounds the hub and the urging member.Type: GrantFiled: February 18, 2005Date of Patent: November 22, 2011Assignee: Becton, Dickinson and CompanyInventors: Tom Alheidt, Vu Phan, Laurent Barrelle, Bruno Baney

Publication number: 20050223747Abstract: A method of forming an alkali metal oxide-doped optical fiber by diffusing an alkali metal into a surface of a glass article is disclosed. The silica glass article may be in the form of a tube or a rod, or a collection of tubes or rods. The silica glass article containing the alkali metal, and impurities that may have been unintentionally diffused into the glass article, is etched to a depth sufficient to remove the impurities. The silica glass article may be further processed to form a complete optical fiber preform. The preform, when drawn into an optical fiber, exhibits a low attenuation.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 2, 2004Publication date: October 13, 2005Inventors: Laura Ball, Bruno Baney, Dana Bookbinder, Keith House, Rostislav Khrapko, Susan Schiefelbein, Lisa Moore
