Patent number: 11872694Abstract: An apparatus for controlling an end-effector assembly is provided. The apparatus includes a elongated element configured to engage the end-effector assembly and a drive assembly. A first motion transfer mechanism is disposed at an end of the elongated element. The first motion transfer mechanism is configured to transfer a rotational motion of the elongated element to a motion of the end-effector assembly. A second motion transfer mechanism is disposed at the second end of the elongated element. The second motion transfer mechanism is configured to transfer a motion of the drive assembly to the rotational motion of the elongated element.Type: GrantFiled: February 3, 2023Date of Patent: January 16, 2024Assignee: Titan Medical Inc.Inventors: Eric Butt, Jeff Ransden, Alexander Shvartsberg, Reiza Rayman

Patent number: 11160962Abstract: A fluid delivery device and method is provided, comprising a handle, a plate, a foam applicator coupled to a bottom surface of the plate and impregnated with an antiseptic solution. A lid member protects the foam applicator from an external environment and defines at least one aperture therein, wherein the lid member is coupled to the plate to form a breakable seal between the plate and the lid member. A tray member, having a bottom surface and at least one sidewall to define a volume therein, contains the foam applicator. The foam applicator is hermetically sealed from the external environment by the lid member, plate and tray member. The lid member is detachable from both the plate and the tray to release the foam applicator from the fluid delivery device and is in a ready-to-use condition without further activation.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 2018Date of Patent: November 2, 2021Assignee: PROFESSIONAL DISPOSABLES INTERNATIONAL, INC.Inventors: Mark Follman, Alan Bachman, John Tanayan, Vincent Mata, Jeff Ransden

Patent number: 10299629Abstract: A blending system is shown and described herein. The blending system may include a base including a motor, a blade base assembly selectively and operably engaged with the base, where the motor drives a blade assembly of the blade base, and a blending container engageable with the blade base. The blade base may be configured to prevent driving of the blade assembly when the blending container is not engaged with the blade base assembly. The blade base may be engaged with the blending container and the blade assembly may mechanically engage with the motor.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2016Date of Patent: May 28, 2019Assignee: VITA-MIX MANAGEMENT CORPORATIONInventors: James P. Bascom, Scott C. Bly, Todd Cassidy, Brenton Krivos, Jeff Ransden, Ray Adams, Christian C. Stewart
