Publication number: 20240335290Abstract: A pump is connected between penile cylinder(s) and a reservoir of a prosthesis. A squeezing pressure applied to the penile cylinder moves a first liquid volume out of the cylinder and into a first chamber of the pump, which displaces a piston inside of the pump. Displacement of the piston creates a vacuum space (a second chamber) between the piston and the housing of the pump, and a second liquid volume is drawn out of the reservoir and into the vacuum space. A return spring pushes the piston back to its starting position, which pushes both the first liquid volume and the second liquid volume out of the pump and into the penile cylinders.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 14, 2024Publication date: October 10, 2024Inventors: Frederick William Hamlin, Anna Christina Miller, John J. Allen

Patent number: 12023448Abstract: A connection device allows connection of an anesthetic container (400) to an anesthetic vaporizer (300) in a fluid-tight manner. A port section (1000) of the anesthetic vaporizer can be detachably connected to an adapter (1100) of the port section. With the adapter connected to the port section, a vaporizer-side channel section and a container-side channel section together form a continuous channel for anesthetic. The area of the surface of the port section that points towards the adapter is formed by a vaporizer-side contact profile (K.1, K.8), and the area of the surface of the adapter that points towards the port section is formed by a container-side contact profile (K.25, 28, 31). One contact profile has a projection (1), and the other contact profile has a corresponding recess (25) that contact with one another without an intermediate space. The projection positive-lockingly meshes with the recess.Type: GrantFiled: July 19, 2019Date of Patent: July 2, 2024Assignee: DRÄGERWERK AG & CO.

Patent number: 11819412Abstract: A penile prosthesis has an energy assembly coupled to a proximal end of a tubular body. The energy assembly has a housing enclosing a piston, a heating element, and a liquid phase change material (PCM) sealed between an interior surface of the housing and the piston. When the heating element heats the liquid PCM to a gaseous state, the piston moves in a distal direction to increase pressure in the tubular body and provide the prosthesis with erection.Type: GrantFiled: February 3, 2021Date of Patent: November 21, 2023Assignee: Coloplast A/SInventors: Frederick William Hamlin, John J. Allen, Rahul Dilip Sathe, Neal Poucher, Kellie J. Giese

Publication number: 20230052782Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an injection device, in particular a micro dose injection device such as, for example, an ophthalmic injection device. An example device comprises a rotatable plunger; a solution receptacle having a first end configured to slidably receive the rotatable plunger and a second end configured to dispense solution contained in the solution receptacle; a first stop member configured to prevent the rotatable plunger from being slidably displaced to a second position while the rotatable plunger is at a first position and in a first orientation; and a second stop member configured to prevent the rotatable plunger from rotating in a first direction about the first axis while the rotatable plunger is at the first position and in the first orientation, wherein slidably displacing the rotatable plunger from the first position to the second position dispenses a quantity of the solution contained in the solution receptacle.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 11, 2020Publication date: February 16, 2023Inventors: Frederick William HAMLIN, Anthony Jonathan BEDFORD, Duncan Aleck BISHOP, Andrew Murray GOW, David Stuart HARRIS, Nicholas Lee HAWSON, Jean-Paul KLEEVEN, Dominic LLOYD-LUCAS, David MUCIENTES, Martin Joseph MURPHY, Stephen PABOOJIAN
