Publication number: 20240269080Abstract: A process system and method for the making of articles, using an omnidirectional magnetic movement system with a transport surface and fabrication modules having a formation surface that can be transported omnidirectionally over the transport surface under the control of a movement controller. An article forming system provides process unit operations for forming articles onto the formation surface as the fabrication modules are moved asynchronously between a plurality of processing positions on the transport surface, and features a depositing device for placing a construction material onto the formation surface and one or more processing devices to form the construction material into the article.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 26, 2024Publication date: August 15, 2024Inventors: Thomas J.

Patent number: 8214031Abstract: A transdermal device such as a patch can include a drug source, a porator, and an energy storage device on-board the patch. The porator operates free of any concurrent connection to any external source of power. A switch can be used to make the selective electrical connection between the porator and the energy storage device. The switch can be arranged to respond to a manual user action after the patch has been adhered to skin, including separation of the porator from a remainder of the patch. Optionally, a series of switches can make electrical connections between the porator and respective individual energy storage devices.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2008Date of Patent: July 3, 2012Assignee: Purdue Pharma L.P.Inventor: Frederick A.

Publication number: 20120123335Abstract: A transdermal patch can include a drug source, a porator, and an energy storage device on-board the patch. Conductive contact terminals can extend from the energy storage device for connection to an external source of power. The porator operates free of any concurrent connection to any external source of power. A switch can be used to make the selective electrical connection between the porator and the energy storage device. The switch can be arranged to respond to a manual user action after the patch has been adhered to skin, including separation of the porator from a remainder of the patch. Optionally, a series of switches can make electrical connections between the porator and respective individual energy storage devices.
