Patent number: 12115362Abstract: A container for delivering a medicament to a target location includes a housing having a proximal end and a distal end, the housing including a cap locking tab at the distal end, and a vial containing the medicament. The container includes a plunger slidable within the vial from a proximal end to a distal end of the vial to dispel the medicament, an injection member associated with the distal end of the vial, such that the medicament dispelled from the vial passes through the injection member to the target location, and a slidable interaction member associated with the distal end of the vial configured to slide with the vial. An interaction between the slidable interaction member and the cap locking tab causes the cap locking tab to bias outward, and placement of a safety cap on the container after use locks the safety cap onto the container via an interaction with the cap locking tab. The container may further include a resistance feature to control movement of a plunger rod relative to the vial.Type: GrantFiled: May 6, 2019Date of Patent: October 15, 2024Assignee: NOBLE INTERNATIONAL, INC.Inventors: Jeff Baker, Francis Michael Siemer, Christopher Chung

Publication number: 20240324571Abstract: A fishing rod holder device (a gunnel gimbal) that is configured to allow for the free pivotal and/or rotational movement of a fishing rod while in use. In one embodiment, the gunnel gimbal includes a rod holder, an upper rotational plate, a lower rotational plate, and a mounting arm. The rod holder is pivotably coupled to the upper rotational plate, between two upright plates. The upper rotational plate is rotationally coupled to the lower rotational plate, and the lower rotational plate is fixedly coupled to the mounting arm. The mounting arm is configured to engage with a mounting structure, such as a built-in fishing rod tube within a gunnel of a boat. A pivotal location of the rod holder and a rotational position of the upper rotational plate are fixable by use of detent pins.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 25, 2024Publication date: October 3, 2024Inventor: Wayne Christopher Chung

Publication number: 20230151374Abstract: The present invention relates to the preparation of human basic fibroblast growth factor by using Bacillus subtilis and endonuclease. Specifically, the present invention provides a nucleic acid construct, which comprises an insert, and the insert comprises, from the 5? end to the 3? end, a polynucleotide sequence that encodes a short peptide affinity tag, a trans-splicing intein derived from Anabaena and an exogenous polypeptide; and wherein the short peptide affinity tag serves as an N-terminal extein of the trans-splicing intein, and the exogenous polypeptide serves as a C-terminal extein of the trans-splicing intein. The present invention further provides an expression vector and a host cell that comprise the construct, and a method for producing and purifying foreign proteins.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 23, 2022Publication date: May 18, 2023Inventors: Shu Kun Christopher CHUNG, Wai Yeung KWONG
