Patent number: 5854074Abstract: A sensor dispensing instrument is adapted to receive a generally circular sensor pack containing a plurality of blood glucose sensors. Each of the sensors are disposed in sensor cavities, each of which is in fluid communication with a corresponding desiccant cavity and has a support wall that assists in directing the sensor as its being ejected from the cavity. The sensor pack is loaded on an indexing disk in the instrument such that when a slide actuator on the instrument is moved toward a testing position, a feed mechanism engaged by the slide actuator moves a knife blade thereon toward one of the sensor cavities. The knife blade pierces a portion of a foil covering the sensor cavity and engages the sensor disposed in the cavity to thereby eject the sensor from the sensor cavity.Type: GrantFiled: January 17, 1997Date of Patent: December 29, 1998Assignee: Bayer CorporationInventors: Steven C. Charlton, Anne T. Miller, Joseph L. Moulton, Matthew A. Schumann, Dennis Slomski, Frank W. Wogoman
