  • Patent number: 10022503
    Abstract: Exemplary embodiments provide a needle shield remover that reliably engages with a distal cap of an automatic injection device and with one or more needle shields coupled to a syringe of the device. When a user removes the distal cap, the needle shield remover reliably removes the needle shields (e.g., a soft needle shield and a rigid needle shield) from the syringe, thereby exposing the injection needle for performing an injection. In an exemplary assembly method, a needle shield remover is engaged to a needle shield coupled to a syringe, prior to insertion of the syringe and needle shield remover assembly into a housing of the device. This exemplary assembly method allows visual inspection, outside the housing of the device, to ensure that the needle shield remover is correctly and reliably engaged to the needle shield before the syringe and needle shield remover assembly is inserted into the housing.

  • Publication number: 20170242936
    Abstract: From a mathematical point of view, thermodynamic properties behave like multi-variable functions and can usually be differentiated and integrated. Many thermodynamic equations with similar function forms could be resolved into families. The members of a family with ‘patterned self-similarity’ can precisely be defined as symmetrical functions, which are left invariant not only in function form, but also in variable nature and relationship under symmetrical operations. The simplest and must evident symmetrical operations happen in the geometrical symmetry of a physical object. Therefore it is possible to employ geometry to reveal symmetry in thermodynamics, incorporate the symmetry to develop a coherent and complete structure (a diagram or model) of thermodynamic variables, and facilitate the subject with the symmetry.

  • Patent number: 9504298
    Abstract: Present invention relates to a tilting mechanism for an umbrella. The tilting mechanism includes: a base, a body, a sliding rod, and a winding device. The base has base pin holes and the body has body pin holes. The base and the body are joined by a pin through the base and body pin holes to form a joint. When umbrella is in upright and closed position, a user turns the crank clockwise, the cord is pulled downwards, a runner of the umbrella is moved upwards to open the umbrella until the runner is stopped by a runner stopper. When the umbrella is in open position, the user continues to turn the crank clockwise, the cord is pulled further down, the sliding rod is moved downwards pushing the wheel to travel along a wheel moving surface, and wheel axle grooves push wheel axle to tilt body around the pin.
