Patent number: 11918790Abstract: A drug injection device includes a last dose setting having a main drive pin, a drive wheel, a driven wheel, an abutment element fixedly coupled to, or integrally formed with, the driven wheel. The drive wheel has a rotation axis parallel to a longitudinal axis and is configured to be driven about the longitudinal axis by a knob and to be periodically driven in rotation about the rotation axis by the main drive pin, during a drug dose setting. The driven wheel has a second rotation axis parallel or coaxial to said longitudinal axis and is configured to be periodically driven about the longitudinal axis by the drive wheel. The abutment element is configured to prevent the rotation of the drive wheel about the longitudinal axis when the knob has made a predetermined number of full and/or partial rotations about the longitudinal axis correlated to the predetermined drug volume.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2022Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Stevanato Group S.P.A.Inventors: Oliver Taylor Harvey, Christopher John Hurlstone, Isobel Rachel Sands, Rhona Ann Sinclair

Patent number: 11920593Abstract: A compressor system is provided that includes a contact cooled compressor and a coolant separator. The coolant separator is used to remove coolant fluid from a compressed flow stream produced by the contact cooled compressor during its operation. The coolant separator routes the removed coolant fluid back to the contact cooled compressor for further use. In some forms the coolant fluid is cooled prior to delivery back to the compressor. A stop valve can be provided in the coolant fluid return line to halt the flow of the fluid. A pressure sensitive member can be disposed to sense pressure of the coolant fluid that has been routed past the stop valve. Operation of the compressor can be changed as a result of the sensed pressure from the pressure sensitive member. Information from a temperature sensitive member can also be used to change operation of the compressor.Type: GrantFiled: March 9, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Ingersoll-Rand Industrial U.S., Inc.Inventors: Michael Borkowski, Christopher Taylor, Eric M. Kaszuba
