  • Patent number: 7564684
    Abstract: A fan with supercharging device has a hub and fan blades. A hub has a shape similar to a cone with a tip end and a circumferential side. The fan blades extend radially from the circumferential side of the hub. Each of the fan blades has a joining end being attached to the circumferential side, a free end extending outward the hub and a front edge and a rear edge being between the joining end and the free end respectively. The rear edge of the respective fan blade is shielded by the front edge of another fan blade next to it. The unshielded portion of the respective fan blade has an area gradually increases from the joining end to the free end. A projection is disposed at the free end along a direction of fluid flow. Hence, fluid pressure is capable of increasing significantly while the fan is in operation.

  • Patent number: 7341078
    Abstract: An automatic bulk filling process for filling a large number of liquid containers (20) simultaneously which consists of placing the open-topped liquid containers upside down in a rack (22). The rack is then inserted into a vacuum chamber (28) and positioned directly above a tray (38) that contains a liquid medicinal product (40). The next step is to evacuate the chamber to a predetermined level below atmospheric pressure and then lowering the rack until the containers are partially immersed in the liquid product. Following that step, nitrogen is introduced into the vacuum chamber at a predetermined gradual rate, thereby quickly forcing the medicinal liquid product into the containers. The rack is then raised from the tray containing the liquid medicinal product and removed from the chamber as another rack full of containers is simultaneously inserted into the chamber from the other end.

  • Patent number: 7219816
    Abstract: A pre-filled disposable pipette (10) consisting of a hollow bulb (12) dimensioned to enclose a medicinal product. From a lower end (16) of the bulb (12) is attached sequentially a medicinal transfer tube (24) and a medication fill tube (32), from where the medicinal product is applied. Between a lower end (28) of the tube (24) and an upper end (34) of the tube (32) is formed a break-away notch (40). When the tube (24) or the tube (32) is rotated, the notch (40) is twisted and breaks-off, thus allowing the medicinal product to flow from the bulb (12) and be released from the tube (24). The pipette (10) includes a primary grasping tab (46) attached to an upper end (14) of the bulb (12); a secondary grasping tab (54) attached to each side of the tube (24); and a support tab (70) attached to each side of the tube (32). The invention also discloses several methods for sealing the lower tip (36) of the medication fill tube (32).

  • Publication number: 20070026030
    Abstract: Methods of mixing delivering biocompatible cement, paste, putty, or gel for bone and cartilage repair are described in this invention. Powder-like solid materials are loaded into a first syringe. Liquids are loaded into one or multiple syringes. The liquids are injected into the first syringe containing the solid materials. To force the liquids through the solid, prevent bubble formation and provide intimate intermixing, the liquids are injected in the very proximity of the plunger end of the syringe containing the solid materials. The first syringe is preferably held vertical with the tip facing up so as to avoid bubble formation that in turn could cause back-pressure build-up and plug the first syringe during injection. The described methods of mixing the liquids with the solids allows to form a rheological paste, cement, putty, or gel in the first syringe.
