  • Patent number: 11939254
    Abstract: An installation for quenching a glass hollow body includes a plurality of external nozzles and an axial nozzle. The plurality of external nozzles are positioned around a main axis. Each of the plurality of external nozzles includes an axial slot configured to direct an air jet towards the main axis. The axial nozzle is aligned along the main axis and includes a shape configured to form an internal air jet forming a ring with an opening at a center thereof in a plane transverse to the main axis. The axial nozzle forming the internal air jet positioned substantially external to and above the bore.

  • Patent number: 11738151
    Abstract: A needleless injection device is provided that includes a body forming a housing, a gas generator, a tubular reservoir that contains an active ingredient, and a T-shaped elastically deformable membrane having a tubular portion. The reservoir extends axially in the housing from an upper end to a lower end and the tubular portion is configured to extend and lie axially in the reservoir under an effect of a pressure generated by the gas generator. An injection nozzle is arranged at the lower end of the reservoir. The tubular portion is funnel shaped and includes at least an upper segment that decreases along an axial elongation direction of the member and a lower segment that increases along the axial elongation direction. The axial length of the upper segment is greater than that of the lower segment.

  • Patent number: 11712521
    Abstract: An injection nozzle for a needleless injection device includes at least one outlet conduit extending parallel to an injection axis (B). The outlet conduit(s) include a first conduit portion having a first section, a second conduit portion having a second section, the first section being larger than the second section, and a connecting portion between the first conduit portion and the second conduit portion. The connecting portion is inclined at an angle between 70° and 90° with respect to the injection axis (B).

  • Patent number: 11643353
    Abstract: A method for air quenching a glass hollow body elongated along a main axis, including a wall having an external surface, and an internal surface formed by a bore extending in height along the main axis, is provided. The method includes simultaneously blasting air jets towards the surfaces of the glass hollow body using air blast nozzles directed towards the surfaces. External nozzles distribute air jets over the external surface of the glass hollow body and a nozzle above the bore of the glass hollow body and aligned along the main axis distributes an internal air jet over the internal surface of the glass hollow body. In a transverse plane to the main axis the internal air jet is in the form of a crown having a recess at the center.

  • Publication number: 20220196373
    Abstract: A method for filling a container with a pyrotechnic charge using a filling system, said method including, when the powder is conveyed, a step of regulating the powder flow rate in which at least one powder conveyor device is brought to vibrate according to a vibration frequency control sequence, the vibration frequency being inversely proportional to the filling ratio of the container of the pyrotechnic charge.

  • Publication number: 20210353864
    Abstract: A monitoring device for monitoring a pressure or an injection force of a plurality of jets generated by channels at an outlet of a nozzle of a needleless injection device. The monitoring device includes a plurality of measuring elements. Each measuring element is configured to measure a pressure or an injection force of a corresponding jet of the plurality of jets. Each measuring element includes a receiving face oriented to receive the corresponding jet.

  • Patent number: 10653839
    Abstract: The present disclosure concerns a needleless injection device including a body forming a housing, a gas generator, a tubular reservoir which contains an active ingredient to be injected, and a generally T-shaped elastically deformable membrane. The membrane includes a tubular portion which extends axially in the reservoir and is designed to lie axially in the reservoir under the effect of the pressure generated by the gas generator. A nozzle for injecting the active ingredient is arranged at the lower end of the reservoir. The device further includes a sock which wraps the tubular portion of the membrane, at least partially. The sock is adapted to limit the friction between the tubular portion of the membrane and the reservoir.
