Patent number: 11723483Abstract: Briefly, a drinking set is provided that has a cup and a flow control disk set fully inside the cup. The flow control disk is constructed for creating a tortured flow path for any fluid flowing out of the cup. In this way, spills are substantially reduced or minimized, and the user has a stable and predictable sipping experience, even when the cup is jostled or violently moved. Fluid moving from the cup first hits a set of steeply angled entry fins, which absorb or reflect energy in the fluid. The fluid passes through a set of small entry openings, and flow to a set of exit fins, where the fluid strikes a face of the exit fins and changes direction to a set of larger exit openings. This tortured fluid path causes the drinking fluid to have a controlled flow and reduced kinetic energy as it approaches the user's mouth, multiple changes in flow direction, and provides several obstacles for absorbing kinetic energy and thus slowing the flow of the fluid.Type: GrantFiled: September 21, 2020Date of Patent: August 15, 2023Inventors: David M Morelock, Joedin D Morelock, Richard C Yang

Publication number: 20210142912Abstract: Systems and methods disclosed provide ways for Health Care Professionals (HCPs) to be involved in initial patient system set up so that the data received is truly transformative, such that the patient not just understands what all the various numbers mean but also how the data can be used. For example, in one implementation, a CGM device is configured for use by a HCP, and includes a housing and a circuit configured to receive a signal from a transmitter coupled to an indwelling glucose sensor. A calibration module converts the received signal into clinical units. A user interface is provided that is configured to display a measured glucose concentration in the clinical units. The user interface is further configured to receive input data about a patient level, where the input data about the patient level causes the device to operate in a mode appropriate to the patient level.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 7, 2021Publication date: May 13, 2021Inventors: Scott M.
