  • Patent number: 11291757
    Abstract: A flow control system may include an inner nosecone having an inner nosecone distal end and an inner nosecone proximal end, an outer nosecone having an outer nosecone distal end and an outer nosecone proximal end, an aperture of the outer nosecone, a gasket having a gasket distal end and a gasket proximal end, a gasket aperture of the gasket, a gasket seal of the gasket, a flow control mechanism having a flow control mechanism distal end and a flow control mechanism proximal end, and a control aperture of the flow control mechanism. A rotation of the flow control mechanism about the gasket may be configured to decrease an aspiration flow rate. A rotation of the flow control mechanism about the gasket may be configured to increase an aspiration flow rate.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11191885
    Abstract: A flow control system for an ultrasonic aspirator handpiece having an aspiration pathway having an inner nosecone operatively connected to the handpiece. A flow control mechanism is disposed over the inner nosecone defining a flow control channel therebetween. The flow control channel is operatively connected to the aspiration pathway. A control aperture of the flow control mechanism is configured for variable engagement by a digit of an operator between an open position and a closed position for corresponding variable adjustment of an aspiration flow rate.
