Publication number: 20240014614Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe a flexible connector mechanism that may be used to form an electrical connection and/or a communication link between one or more devices. The flexible connector mechanism may comprise one or more interface components that may each comprise one or more contact portions. The interface components may be configured to be selectively coupled to one or more corresponding components of a coupleable object. The flexible connector mechanism may also comprise a flexible portion that enables the interface components to be manipulated along one or more planes or axes. The flexibility of the flexible portion may enable the interface components of the flexible connector mechanism to be adjusted into, and maintained in, an optimal (or operable) position when coupled to a coupleable object in motion.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 14, 2023Publication date: January 11, 2024Inventors: Nick FOLEY, Andrew Titus, Shai Schechter

Patent number: 11602599Abstract: An accessory for an injection device having a needle cap. The accessory comprises a body portion comprising a recess adapted to receive the injection device and a cover coupled to the body portion. The cover is pivotally moveable between an open position in which the recess is exposed to receive the injection device, and a closed position in which the cover at least partially closes the recess to hold the injection device in the body portion. The accessory further comprises a cap remover comprising a grip adapted to hold the needle cap. The cap remover is moveable with respect to the body portion.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2019Date of Patent: March 14, 2023Assignee: Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc.Inventors: James D.

Publication number: 20220395636Abstract: Various training devices and methods for simulating intranasal drug delivery are described. In one exemplary embodiment, a training device can include an outer sleeve, a locking sleeve coupled to the outer sleeve, a core sleeve coupled to the locking sleeve, and a plunger operatively coupled to the core sleeve. The plunger can be configured to selectively translate the core sleeve from an initial position to a first actuated position that indicates the release of a first simulated dose of a drug, and from the first actuated position to a second actuated position that indicates the release of a second simulated dose of the drug, in which the device does not contain the drug. The plunger can also be configured to rotate relative to the outer sleeve to reset the core sleeve to the initial position such that the core sleeve can be translated back to the first and second actuated positions.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 30, 2020Publication date: December 15, 2022Inventors: William DAVIES, Ian SCRIMGEOUR, Nick FOLEY, Jimmy MOWER, Monica A.
