Patent number: 11957886Abstract: A system includes a tubing set and a drive assembly. The tubing set includes inlet tubing couplable to a source of fluid, a valve coupled to the inlet tubing, a syringe coupled to the inlet tubing via the valve, and outlet tubing coupled to the valve. The valve is configured to allow fluid to be drawn from the source of fluid via the inlet tubing into a syringe body of the syringe and to be expelled from the syringe body and through the outlet tubing, and to prevent fluid from being drawn from the outlet tubing into the syringe body and to prevent fluid expelled from the syringe body from flowing through the inlet tubing. The drive assembly is configured to reversibly receive the tubing set such that a drive mechanism is engaged with a plunger of the syringe to reciprocally translate the plunger relative to the syringe body.Type: GrantFiled: October 3, 2022Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: 410 Medical, Inc.Inventors: Mark D. Piehl, Galen C. Robertson, John Tyler Willis Hagler, Robert W. Titkemeyer, Frederic C. Feiler, Jr.

Publication number: 20230243445Abstract: An accessory positioning system for a cable manager includes a spine member, a first lateral member, an accessory rod, and a first cable management accessory. The spine member has an extruded construction and defines an x-axis of a three-dimensional cable management space. The first lateral member has an extruded construction and defines a y-axis of the three-dimensional cable management space. The spine member is slidably paired with the first lateral member to facilitate infinite adjustability of a location of the spine member along the x-axis of the three-dimensional cable management space within a range defined by a length of the first lateral member. The accessory rod has an extruded construction and define a z-axis of the three-dimensional cable management space.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 30, 2023Publication date: August 3, 2023Inventors: Preston Ellis HENNRICH, James I.
