  • Patent number: 10124110
    Abstract: A fluid injector for use with at least one syringe has at least one injector head with a front end configured to releasably receive the at least one syringe. The fluid injector further includes at least one pressure jacket releasably associated with the front end of the at least one injector head for securing the at least one syringe during an injection procedure. A connection mechanism releasably connects the at least one pressure jacket to the front end of the at least one injector head. The connection mechanism includes at least one magnet. The at least one injector head has the at least one magnet while the at least one pressure jacket has a ferromagnetic material configured for magnetically interacting with the at least one magnet.

  • Patent number: 8945051
    Abstract: A multi-fluid injector system and methods of operation thereof are presented. One embodiment of such a fluid injector system includes a powered injector, a pressure jacket support, a syringe pressure jacket, and a syringe. The pressure jacket support includes a front plate and a rear plate. The rear plate is connected to the injector and the front plate is spaced from the rear plate and defines a slot. The syringe pressure jacket has a proximal end pivotally connected to the rear plate so that a distal end of the pressure jacket pivots relative to the front plate. The syringe has a syringe body with a distally extending discharge conduit. With the syringe disposed in a barrel of the pressure jacket, pivotal movement of the pressure jacket results in the distal end thereof pivoting toward the front plate to place the discharge conduit within the slot in the front plate.

  • Publication number: 20140163365
    Abstract: A fluid delivery system is provided, including a fluid injector head, a hand controller electronically interfaced with the fluid injector head, and a hand controller support assembly for supporting the hand controller. The hand controller support assembly includes a first component having a base portion and two outward extending support arms to support the hand controller and a second component adapted for fixation to a surface. The first component may be rotationally connected to the second component such that the first component may automatically reposition relative to the second component under the force of gravity to maintain the hand controller in an upright position and supported by the support assembly.
