  • Patent number: 11958058
    Abstract: A system for sorting metallic objects by magnetic separation has an electromagnetic core. The electronic core includes at least a first portion, a second portion, and a bottom. A sorting flap is arranged facing the electromagnetic core to fashion a circulation space for a conveyor of objects to be sorted from the first portion toward the second portion. The sorting flap includes a magnetic element arranged to form an air gap (E1) between the first portion and the sorting flap. The air gap forms a magnetic barrier opposing the passage of non-magnetic metallic objects, such that the objects are ejected from the conveyor. The second portion is arranged to ensure a return of the magnetic flux lines toward the first portion.

  • Publication number: 20240108819
    Abstract: A system is disclosed. The system includes a fill adapter device including a heat exchanger which includes a heating element and a fluid pathway, the fluid pathway fluidly connected to a filling needle input, whereby fluid enters the heat exchanger through the filling needle input and flows through the fluid pathway and whereby the fluid is heated by the heating element. The system also includes a reservoir including a plunger and a plunger rod and a filling needle configured to be removably attached to the reservoir, wherein the fill adapter is configured to be attached to a vial of fluid and wherein fluid from the vial flows through the fluid pathway and is heated and loaded into the reservoir through the filling needle.

  • Patent number: 11918503
    Abstract: A structure includes a first frame having a shape to fit around, or over, a body part, the first frame further comprising a first surface configured to dock with a docking surface of a second frame configured to receive and support the body part. The structure also includes a material attached to the first frame for fitting to the body part; and at least one attachment mechanism coupled to the first frame and configured to attach the first frame to the second frame when the first surface of the first frame is docked with the docking surface of the second frame, wherein the at least one attachment mechanism is configured to flex or pivot, relative to a lateral edge of the first frame, to attach the first frame to the second frame when the first surface of the first frame is docked with the docking surface of the second frame.
