Patent number: 9184934Abstract: Certain embodiments of the invention can include systems and methods for enabling the operation of multiple control devices on the same network. Each control device on a network can be configured to monitor and receive input messages from multiple IO devices on the network. The control devices may also be configured to send output messages to one or more of the IO devices. According to certain embodiments, one control device may send output messages to certain IO devices while another IO device may send output messages to different IO devices. The input and output messages can both be sent via multicast according to certain embodiments.Type: GrantFiled: August 1, 2012Date of Patent: November 10, 2015Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Dennis Brian King, Andre DeMaurice, Harry Ridenour

Publication number: 20140083628Abstract: A spray drier system is provided for spray drying a liquid sample such as blood plasma. The spray drier system may include a spray drier device adapted to couple with a spray drier assembly. The assembly may include an enclosure mounted to a frame. The assembly may receive a flow of drying gas which is directed by the enclosure shape towards a spray drying head mounted within the enclosure to the frame. Flows of a liquid sample may be further received by the head, which aerosolizes the liquid sample. Aerosolized liquid sample and drying air may be mixed within a drying chamber of the enclosure to produce dried sample and humid air. The dried sample and humid air may also be separated in a collection chamber of the enclosure, with the humid air exhausted from the enclosure.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 29, 2013Publication date: March 27, 2014Inventors: Abdul Wahid Khan, Dennis Brian Hubbard, JR.

Publication number: 20140088768Abstract: A spray drier monitoring and control system is provided for a spray drier device adapted to spray dry a liquid sample such as blood plasma. The system may receive information regarding an operator of the device, the liquid sample, a spray drier assembly used by the device for spray drying, and spray drying process parameters. The spray drier system may also conduct a plurality of checks to ensure that traceability and conformance with attendant quality/safety standards are maintained throughout the spray drying process. The information may be output by the system to a remote computing device (e.g., a blood center computing system) that tracks the sample history. Beneficially, the spray drier system allows information regarding spray drying to be easily integrated with the sample information for enhanced tracking and quality control of the sample.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 29, 2013Publication date: March 27, 2014Inventors: Michael Haley, Dennis Brian Hubbard, JR., Samira Johnson, Abdul Wahid Khan

Publication number: 20140083627Abstract: A spray drier system is provided for spray drying a liquid sample such as blood plasma. The spray drier system may include a spray drier device and a spray drier assembly. The spray drier device may be configured to receive flows of an aerosolizing gas, a drying gas, and blood plasma from respective sources and couple with the spray drier assembly for transmission of the received aerosolizing gas, drying gas, and plasma to the spray drier assembly. Spray drying of the plasma is performed in the spray drier assembly under the control of the spray drier device.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 26, 2013Publication date: March 27, 2014Inventors: Abdul Wahid Khan, Molly Cronin, Michael Haley, Dennis Brian Hubbard, JR., George T. Perivolotis, John Charles Rosenfelder, Michael John Wilt

Patent number: 8601712Abstract: Described herein are devices and techniques for spray drying a fluid to produce a dried powder. Assemblies include a spray drying head attachable to a gas supplier and a liquid sample, such as a standard unit of blood product. The spray drying head can be adapted to provide an aerosolized flow of liquid sample exposed to a drying gas. The assembly also includes a drying chamber adapted to separate the aerosolized flow of liquid sample into a dried powder and humid air. The assembly can be disposable, provided in a sterilized kit and having simplified attachments allowing quick connect and disconnect from the gas and liquid sample. Separation of the powder from the humid air exiting the drying chamber occurs within a filtered collection bag. In some embodiments, one or more of the drying chamber and collection bag are formed form a thin-walled, collapsible material.Type: GrantFiled: October 25, 2012Date of Patent: December 10, 2013Assignee: Velico Medical, Inc.Inventors: Dennis Brian Hubbard, Jr., Michael Haley, John Charles Rosenfelder, George T.
