Publication number: 20240131271Abstract: A drive train for a wind-up injection device is described. The drive train includes a torsional energy storage adapted to be loaded or unloaded by a rotatable element, a rotatable user handle, a rotationally driveable expelling mechanism adapted to expel the liquid drug, and a clutch element coupled with the torsional energy storage via the rotatable element and including a ratchet for maintaining the rotatable element at one of a number of discrete angular positions against the torque of the torsional energy storage. The clutch element is adapted to transmit the torque from the user handle to the torsional energy storage, or alternatively from the torsional energy storage to the expelling mechanism. The ratchet is switchable from one position to an adjacent position by a torque transmitted from the user handle to the torsional energy storage. The drive train is adapted to dampen torque peaks visco-elastically and/or visco-frictionally.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 8, 2023Publication date: April 25, 2024Inventors: Michael Jugl, Stefan Blancke, Axel Teucher, Ralph Donald Quentin Collings, James Robert Coop, James Anthony West, Stephen Francis Gilmore, Daniel David Higgins, Mark Digby Teucher, Anthony Paul Morris, Matthew Meredith Jones, William Geoffrey Arthur Marsh, Samuel Keir Steel

Patent number: 11966568Abstract: The method receives a visual specification, which specifies a data source, visual variables, and data fields from the data source. Each visual variable is associated with data fields and each data field is either a dimension or a measure. From an object model of the data source, the method identifies a minimal subtree that includes all of the dimension data fields and constructs a query from the minimal subtree. The method executes the query against the data source to retrieve a set of tuples, each tuple comprising a unique ordered combination of data values for the dimension data fields. For each tuple, the method forms an extended tuple by appending aggregated data values corresponding to each measure data field. The method then builds and displays a data visualization according to the data fields in the extended tuples and according to the visual variables to which the data fields are associated.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2018Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: Tableau Software, Inc.Inventors: Justin Talbot, Roger Hau, Daniel Cory, Jiyoung Oh, Teresa Roberts

Patent number: 11938332Abstract: A method to provide feedback, coaching, and ECG analysis during a cardiac event. A rescuer would typically be attempting cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and/or administering an electrical shock from a defibrillator and/or collecting electrocardiogram (ECG) data. The method includes a step of providing a data-generation device (e.g., a camera) and computing components. The computer is used to calculate distances on the fly using data generated by the data-generation device, such as a camera, that may be in motion. The method uses the computer to calculate movement of the chest of a patient and to assess outcomes. When CPR contaminates an ECG, the computer removes the unwanted contamination so that proper guidance to the rescuer can be delivered during CPR.Type: GrantFiled: November 24, 2021Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: Altrix Medical, Inc.Inventors: Matthew Robert Shaker, Daniel Fleck
