Publication number: 20240108842Abstract: A headgear assembly for retaining a respiratory mask on a user's face includes arrangements or components that allow for variation in a size of the headgear assembly. In some configurations, the headgear assembly includes one or more hubs, each of which are configured to connect a top and rear strap together. The size of the headgear assembly can be determined by the size or configuration of the hub. In other configurations, the headgear assembly comprises one or more spacer elements within one or more straps of the headgear. The size of the headgear assembly can be determined by the size of the spacer element or a relative position between the strap and the spacer element.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 6, 2023Publication date: April 4, 2024Inventors: Paul Mathew Freestone, Melissa Catherine Bornholdt, Matthew Roger Stephenson, Jake Baker Hocking, Bruce Michael Walls, Chris Onin Limpin Hipolito, Jonathan Tong Lok Sng, Abby Rebecca Farrow

Patent number: 11923807Abstract: Circuits and methods for improving IC yield during automated test equipment (ATE) calibration of circuit designs which require IDD calibration and use a closed feedback bias circuit, such as amplifier circuits. The circuit designs include bias branch/active circuit architectures where the active circuit includes one or more active devices. An example first embodiment uses an on-chip calibration switch between the on-chip grounds of a bias network and an active circuit comprising an amplifier. During calibration of the active circuit by the ATE, the calibration switch is closed, and after completion of calibration, the calibration switch is opened. An example second embodiment utilizes an active on-chip feedback loop calibration circuit to equalize voltages between the on-chip grounds of a bias network and an active circuit comprising an amplifier during calibration of the active circuit.Type: GrantFiled: May 26, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: pSemi CorporationInventors: Parvez H. Daruwalla, Yucheng Tong, Jonathan James Klaren

Publication number: 20230181855Abstract: A nasal mask having a seal housing and a flexible nasal seal connected or connectable to the seal housing to define a mask cavity. The nasal seal extends between a face-contacting side and an outer side. The nasal seal has a contacting surface having an edge that defines a nose-receiving opening into the mask cavity and which is configured to seal about the user's nose. The nasal seal also has an under-nose support fixedly connected into the seal and which is configured to extend within the mask cavity and having a contact surface that is oriented to contact at least a portion of the under-nose surface of the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 17, 2022Publication date: June 15, 2023Inventors: Tony William SPEAR, Melissa Catherine BORNHOLDT, Jake Baker HOCKING, Jonathan Tong Lok SNG, Jeremy Owen YOUNG, Arvin San Jose GARDIOLA, Stephen Francis HEFFERNAN, Christine Marie LYNCH, Wen Dong HUANG

Publication number: 20220296841Abstract: A headgear for a respiratory interface on the head of a user includes a first strap, a second strap, and a junction between the ends of the first strap the second strap. The straps are constructed as a tubular knitted structure having a front side configured to be positioned toward the user and a rear side configured to be positioned away from the user. The junction is constructed as a knitted structure having a front side and a rear side. In at least a portion of the junction, the front side and the rear side are joined to one another. The junction can comprise a gusset that spaces the straps apart from one another.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 16, 2020Publication date: September 22, 2022Inventors: Jonathan Tong Lok SNG, Nigel TRINIDADE, Matthew Roger STEPHENSON, Tony William SPEAR, Jeremy Owen YOUNG

Patent number: 11313999Abstract: An optical system is disclosed that can include a focal plane. The optical system can also include a primary mirror located in front of the focal plane and having a hole operable to allow light to pass through the primary mirror. The optical system can further include a secondary mirror located in front of the primary mirror and operable to direct light through the hole to the focal plane. The optical system can still further include an intermediate field baffle located at least partially in front of the focal plane. In addition, the optical system can include a shutter mechanism located in front of the baffle. An integrated baffle and shutter device is also disclosed that can include a shutter mechanism having a paddle and an actuator operable to selectively move the paddle between an open position that allows light past the shutter mechanism and a closed position that blocks light.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 2019Date of Patent: April 26, 2022Assignee: Raytheon CompanyInventors: Keith Carrigan, Robert L.

Publication number: 20200230343Abstract: A respiratory mask system includes a mask interface and a headgear assembly. The headgear assembly is adjustable and comprised of an elastic portion, a non-elastic portion and a restriction mechanism configured to provide a force resisting movement of the non-elastic portion when the elastic portion is extended. There is a support beam coupled to the non-elastic portion and extending along a portion of the headgear that is curved along its longitudinal extent. In this way particular seal modules can be comfortably fitted to a user and any blow off force is mitigated. A particular example of the respiratory mask system includes provision for removable attachment between the seal and a mask frame, the mask frame and a yoke of the headgear; and between a conduit and the mask frame.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 26, 2018Publication date: July 23, 2020Inventors: Christopher Gareth SIMS, Fadi Karim Moh'd MASHAL, Vitaly KAPELEVICH, Mark Arvind MCLAREN, Silas Sao Jin SIEW, Jonathan Mark DOWNEY, Christopher Michael WONG, Matthew Aaron BRADLEY, Janine Elizabeth COLLINS, Dillan PATEL, Steve THOMAS, Chris Onin Limpin HIPOLITO, Priyanka Ferdinand PEREIRA, Matthew Robert Geoff SLIGHT, David Monroy FELIX, Xin Yue ZHU, Jonathan Tong Lok SNG, Arvin San Jose GARDIOLA, Stephen Francis HEFFERNAN, Christine Marie LYNCH, Wen Dong HUANG, Bruce Michael WALLS, Jeremy Owen YOUNG, Tony William SPEAR, Jake Baker HOCKING, Melissa Catherine BORNHOLDT
