Abstract: Drug delivery devices and related arrangements are disclosed. A drug delivery device may include a housing having an opening, a drug storage container including a delivery member with an insertion end configured to extend at least partially through the opening, and a plunger. A drive mechanism may be included for driving the plunger in a distal direction to expel a drug from the drug storage container through the delivery member upon activation. The drug delivery device may additionally include a guard moveably disposed adjacent to the opening and operably coupled to the drive mechanism for activation of the drive mechanism. A lock may be selectively engageable with the guard to limit movement of the guard in the proximal direction. An indicator may be coupled to the drive mechanism to generate an audible signal during drug delivery, and to cease generating the audible signal when drug delivery is complete.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for determining a temperature in a system having an object, an optical sensor, and a gas flow passing between the object and the optical sensor, sensing, with the optical sensor, a wavelength emitted from the object and indicative of an attenuation, sensing, with the optical sensor, a wavelength emitted from the object and indicative of a temperature of at least one of the object or the gas; and calculating a temperature of the gas using the wavelengths.

Abstract: An overpressure ventilation device for a gas mask air filter integrated into a case closed by a lid, formed of a caseless centrifugal ventilator connected before the filter, wherein it comprises a support integral with the filter lid enabling the motor and ventilator fan wheel to be centered on the longitudinal axis of the filter, such as to obtain the axial operation of the ventilator. The lid is provided with a well in which to receive the support, which comprises a first lateral wall cooperating with the connection means, a second lateral wall prolonging the first one and a bottom wall provided with apertures to let the air through.
