Patent number: 12017102Abstract: A nozzle for dispensing a fluid having a barrel having a proximal end and a distal end, the barrel having a passage defined by a first internal surface extending between the distal end and the proximal end, and an orifice defined by a second internal surface at the distal end of the barrel, a stem located at least partially in the barrel, the barrel is movable in relation to the stem to switch between a low pressure mode and a high pressure mode, a shaper located around an outer surface of the distal end of the barrel, the shaper being movable in relation to the barrel to switch between a low pressure fog mode and a low pressure stream mode. The nozzle is configured to dispense the fluid in a straight stream or fog in both the low pressure mode and the ultra-high pressure mode. The orifice is also configured to provide flushing capability for the ultra-high pressure mode while operating in the low pressure mode.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2020Date of Patent: June 25, 2024Assignee: Alden Research Laboratory, Inc.Inventors: James B.

Patent number: 11564694Abstract: A smart tourniquet for self-administering a medication is provided. When a patient needs to inject themselves with a medication, intravenously, called an “infusion,” the patient wears the smart tourniquet around their arm and tightens the device. While the patient is using the smart tourniquet, the device automatically records the date and time of the infusion, called a “timestamp”. The patient can also use the device to record the dosage or “number of units” taken at the time of the infusion. The smart tourniquet can store the timestamp as well as other related information as a record. At a later time, the patient can recall prior records on the smart tourniquet itself. The smart tourniquet can also be synchronized with an application and the records can be downloaded for review by the patient, nurse or doctor to render accurate and timely care.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 2018Date of Patent: January 31, 2023Assignee: TAKEDA PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANY LIMITEDInventors: Danielle Bateman, Qi-Dong Dai, Qing Gu, Seok-Choon Toh

Publication number: 20150127404Abstract: System of matching algorithms for pairing parties wherein one party seeks and consumes knowledge and the other party provides knowledge by means of real-time knowledge transfer sessions conducted via video communications and multiple media. Knowledge can be transferred through collaborative problem solving, questions-and-answers, tutorials, structured sessions, and unstructured sessions. The transfer of knowledge can take place on a pay-for-service basis or by means of knowledge-gifting. The system can accommodate one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-one, and many-to-many assemblages of knowledge sharing participates. The system includes post-session ratings of each party by and of the other party, building cumulative ratings scores, supplemented with video and voice and text reviews with the resultant data woven into an algorithmic solution for matching participants in future sessions with optimally favorable outcomes, based on the quantifiably expressed feedback of all session participants.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 1, 2013Publication date: May 7, 2015Inventors: Frederick Hannon Laughter, Daniel Bateman

Publication number: 20070003350Abstract: A ribbon identification system detects a digitally encoded tract comprised of radially printed bands of dark and light areas positioned on a ribbon spool that fits on a media printing device. Each type and length of ribbon to be used is associated with a specific and unique digitally encoded tract. When the ribbon spool is positioned correctly on the printing device, the digitally encoded tract is detected, and the control program of the printing device sets the parameters associated with that ribbon automatically ensuring proper printing. Through the digitally encoded tract, the ribbon spool is uniquely identified so that once it has been determined by the printing device's control program that the ribbon has been depleted, that ribbon spool, if reinstalled on the same printing device at a later time, will be recognized as a depleted ribbon, and the printing device will not function.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 25, 2006Publication date: January 4, 2007Inventors: Daniel Bateman, Connie Bowen, Kevin Moore, Charles Ranson, Dennis White
