Patent number: 11779727Abstract: A urinary catheter assembly includes a urinary catheter having a proximal part with an insertion tip, a distal part and a tubular shaft extending between the insertion tip and the distal part. A package having at least a first compartment with an opening is provided to enclose the proximal part and at least a part of the tubular shaft therein in a curved or curled state during storage. A protective sleeve arrangement is arranged around the distal part of the urinary catheter, and a distal end of the protective sleeve arrangement is connected to the urinary catheter, at or in the vicinity of a distal end of the catheter. The protective sleeve arrangement includes at least two sleeves that are telescopically displaceable in relation to each other, and the protective sleeve arrangement is transformable between a retracted position and an extended position.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2021Date of Patent: October 10, 2023Assignee: DENTSPLY IH ABInventors: Karsten Eriksson, Michael Sandberg, Niklas Dahlberg, Benny Svendsen

Patent number: 11344701Abstract: A urinary catheter assembly comprises: a urinary catheter, a tubular case and a sleeve fixedly arranged over at least a part of a non-insertable section of the urinary catheter. The sleeve includes two oppositely arranged openings and a body extending between the opening. In a first position, a storage position, the tubular case is arranged to enclose the insertable section of the urinary catheter and is removably connected to the sleeve and/or to the non-insertable section of the urinary catheter. The body portion of the sleeve is provided with a first engagement member, and the tubular case is provided with a second engagement member, thereby enabling the tubular case, when removed from the non-insertable part of the urinary catheter, to be releasably connected to the sleeve in a second disposition, the second disposition being different from the first disposition. A method for producing a urinary catheter assembly is also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: May 23, 2019Date of Patent: May 31, 2022Assignee: DENTSPLY IH ABInventors: Per Andersin, Karsten Eriksson, Isak Folenius, Michael Sandberg

Publication number: 20220001139Abstract: A medical device assembly comprises a medical device, such as a urinary catheter, comprising an insertable part and a non-insertable part. The insertable part comprises an elongate shaft provided with a hydrophilic coating or surface. The assembly further comprises a wetting fluid compartment arranged to encircle at least a part of the medical device, and preferably at least a part of the non-insertable part, and an aqueous fluid arranged in the wetting fluid compartment. At least one of the aqueous fluid and the hydrophilic coating or surface comprises at least one surfactant. The hydrophilic coating or surface is maintained essentially separated from the aqueous fluid, and arranged to become wetted by movement of the elongate shaft through the wetting fluid compartment.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 28, 2021Publication date: January 6, 2022Inventors: Karsten ERIKSSON, Michael SANDBERG, Åsa WESTLING, Frida ISELAU, Niklas DAHLBERG

Patent number: 6015043Abstract: A display package for a bottle is presented having a relatively short base section and a folded wrap-around section. The base section has a top with a hole adapted for receiving the bottom of the bottle. The wrap-around section extends from the back of the base section over the top of the bottle and down to the front of the base. The top of the wrap-around section is shorter in length than the largest diameter of the bottle displayed in the packaging. A window in the front of the wrap-around section allows the upper-front portion of the bottle to extend through the window. In addition, the wrap-around section leaves majority of the bottle exposed through the open sides of the tent-like structure formed by the wrap-around section.Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 1998Date of Patent: January 18, 2000Assignee: The Traveling Herbalist, Inc.Inventors: Thomas Michael Sandberg, George Webinger
