Patent number: 12318588Abstract: An assembly for a drug delivery device comprises a housing, a dose member which is displaceable in a proximal direction with respect to the housing for setting of a dose of a drug, a clutch member which is displaced in the proximal direction with respect to the housing when setting the dose, and a stop member configured to define a clutch stop position. The clutch member and the dose member are configured to mechanically cooperate with one another when the clutch member is in the clutch stop position, thereby preventing further displacement of the dose member in the proximal direction with respect to the housing during setting of the dose.Type: GrantFiled: August 8, 2022Date of Patent: June 3, 2025Assignee: Sanofi-Aventis Deutschland GMBHInventors: Michael Strehl, Udo Leuschner, Norbert Besenhardt

Patent number: 11976668Abstract: A flow guiding device for use on a fan assembly with a motor-operated radial impeller rotating about an axis of rotation. The guiding device has an outer housing and an inner diffuser. A flow duct is formed between the outer housing and inner diffuser. The flow duct extends along an axial flow direction. The outer housing forms a receiving space for the integral holding of the radial impeller. The impeller borders, in the axial direction, on the inner diffuser. The impeller, during operation, takes in a flow axially and blows it out radially into the flow duct. The flow duct is adapted to deflect the flow from a radial direction into an axial direction.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2020Date of Patent: May 7, 2024Assignee: ebm-papst Mulfingen GmbH & Co. KGInventors: Michael Strehle, Björn Sudler, Daniel Conrad

Publication number: 20240024573Abstract: Apparatus and methods for introducing a solid or semi-solid intraocular drug-containing implant into the anterior chamber of an eye are described. The drug-containing implant can be a rod-shaped biodegradable implant that may provide for the extended release of the drug and may be effective for treating a medical condition of the eye. The apparatus is ergonomically designed in the shape or style of a pen with tactile surfaces for easy gripping, a needle-rotation knob to permit orientation of the needle bevel in relation to the eye, and a spring-actuated mechanism for consistent deployment of the implant.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 28, 2023Publication date: January 25, 2024Inventors: Zoran Novakovic, Rahul Bhagat, Shawn R.
