Patent number: 11717611Abstract: A medicament delivery device (100) for delivery of medicament from a cartridge (10) into an injection site, through a cannula (134). The cartridge has a medicament chamber (14) with an outlet (15), and a sealing element (16) for closing the outlet (15). The device has a housing (102) for receiving the cartridge (10), and a drive mechanism (200) to expel the medicament from the device upon activation of the drive mechanism (200). The device has a connection arrangement (199) comprising a hub (166) and spring means (184) for driving relative movement between the hub (166) and the cartridge (10) upon operation of an operating member (190). The operating member switches the connection arrangement (199) from an unconnected configuration to a connected configuration, in which the hub (166) cooperates with the cartridge (10) to open the outlet (15). When connected, fluid may flow between the chamber (14) and the cannula (134).Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 2017Date of Patent: August 8, 2023Assignee: Owen Mumford LimitedInventors: Toby Cowe, Colin Webb

Patent number: 9160365Abstract: A method of programming a tire pressure monitor sensor utilizes a programming tool that transmits LF data frames to the TPMS sensor that includes a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) code with each data frame. The starting point for the subsequent data frame will then start with the CRC code received from the previous frame and will end with a new CRC code. Accordingly, the CRC code received from the previous frame will be used to ensure that the next data frame matches that CRC code as the starting point for that frame. This will ensure that the data frames cannot get out of sequence and will allow the ability to quickly identify where the data frames have gone out of sync and allow the programming tool to quickly react.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2013Date of Patent: October 13, 2015Assignee: BARTEC USA LLCInventors: Michael John Gavin, Colin Webb, Steve Ascham, Charles W.
