The fluid ducting assembly includes a base having a first member, a second member, and a third member for connection to and providing flow communication with the syringe, the vessel and the dispenser, respectively. The fluid ducting assembly further includes a flow controller within the base enabling any one of a flow path between the first member and the second member and a flow path between the first member and the third member. The flow controller has either a first operative position in which the flow path between the first member and the second member is enabled or a second operative position in which the flow path between the first member and the third member is enabled.

Abstract: A fluid transfer and mixing device for use in the aseptic intermixing of a powder component with a fluid component. The device is of a simple, compact construction that includes a first adapter that can be easily connected to a container containing the powder component and a second adapter that can be removably interconnected with the first adapter and can also be readily connected to a container containing a fluid such as a diluent so as to permit aseptic intermixing of the diluent with the powder. In use a conventional needleless syringe can be easily connected to the first adapter so that the mixture of the powder and diluent can be aseptically aspirated from the first container for subsequent delivery to the patient.

Abstract: The device for applying a flowable medium, in particular a tissue adhesive is provided with at least one reservoir (16) for the medium, wherein said reservoir (16) comprises an outlet (22) from which the medium exits when pressure is applied to the medium and/or said reservoir (16). A pressure-generating element (20) acts upon the medium and/or said reservoir (16) and is biased by a biasing means (34). Said biasing means (34) can be locked with the aid of a controllable locking means (58), wherein said locking means (58) comprises a movable fixing element (54) which, in at least one fixing position, locks the biasing element (34) against movements caused by the biasing process, and is movable out of the at least one fixing position to release said biasing element (34).

Abstract: A fluid control device adapted to mix a fluid contained in a first medicinal vessel with a powder contained in a second vessel to produce therein a drug that is then delivered to a syringe for dispensing the drug. The device includes a fluid control member which in one operative position intercouples the first and second vessels to cause the fluid to mix with the powder to produce the drug in the second vessel. In another operative position of the control member, the second vessel is coupled to the syringe to deliver the drug thereto.

Abstract: A fluid control device (10) for use with a syringe and at least one medicinal vessel (28). The fluid control device includes a first port (13), a second port (12) for receiving the syringe, a third port (17) including an adaptor (20) having a fluid conduit member (24) extending into the interior of the medicinal vessel (28) when attached thereto and a flow control member (20′) selectively disposable from a first flow control position enabling a flow path between a first pair of two ports (12, 17) and second flow control position enabling a flow path between a second pair of two ports (12, 13). The flow control member (20′) is coupled to one, of the ports for manipulation between its flow control positions.

Abstract: An apparatus for moving fluid from a first location to a second location comprises a housing containing a pump body having a central passageway with a fluid inlet and first and second fluid outlets in communication with the passageway. A shuttle having first and second fluid chambers is movable within the passageway of the body between first and second positions. First, second, third, and fourth generally annular shaped fluid passageways provided in the shuttle permit selective fluid communication between the first and second fluid chambers of the shuttle and the inlet and outlet ports of the pump body. First and second inlet passageways provided in the shuttle permits selective fluid communication between the inlet of the pump body and the first and second fluid chambers of the shuttle. A piston is reciprocally movable within the shuttle chambers by a uniquely configured operating mechanism, such as a cam ring.

Abstract: The applicator device comprises a plurality of supply containers (112), each of which is mechanically connected via fluid control device (148) to a common connecting headpiece (160). Each fluid control device (148) is provided with a first port (152) connected to said common connecting headpiece (160). A second port (150) of each fluid control device (148) is connected to a syringe body (114). Further, each fluid control device (148) comprises a third port adapted to have a medicinal vessel connected therethrough. Said third port is provided with an adaptor (154) for receiving said medicinal vessel and is further provided with a fluid conduit member which, when the vessel is received in the adaptor (154), extends into the interior of the vessel.
