Abstract: A medical injection device including a housing having a distal end and a proximal end, a brake tower having a proximal end portion, a distal end portion, and a sidewall therebetween defining a longitudinal axis, and a cartridge received within the housing distally of the brake tower and holding a composition therein. The device further a piston rod coaxially positioned within the brake tower and capable of axial travel within the brake tower and the cartridge along the longitudinal axis. A biasing component is positioned between the proximal end portion of the cartridge and the distal end portion of the brake tower, where the biasing component surrounds a portion of the piston rod.

Abstract: Provided herein is a brake tower for a medical injection device, the brake tower having a proximal end, a distal end having a distal face, and a sidewall therebetween defining a longitudinal axis, and one or more protrusions arranged on and extending distally from the sidewall and/or the distal face. Also provided herein is a medical injection device including a brake tower.

Abstract: A medicament delivery system, including a medicament container and a delay mechanism that is activated prior to completion of medicament delivery from the medicament container. The delay mechanism automatically activates a subsystem or initiates an operation subsequent to completion of medicament delivery.

Abstract: A medicament delivery system, including a medicament container and a delay mechanism that is activated prior to completion of medicament delivery from the medicament container. The delay mechanism automatically activates a subsystem or initiates an operation subsequent to completion of medicament delivery.

Abstract: Accordingly, it is an aspect of the present invention to provide a medicament delivery system with a delay mechanism to ensure dose completion prior to activation of at least one subsystem or operation. The foregoing and/or other aspects of the present invention are achieved by providing a medicament delivery system, including a medicament container and a delay mechanism that is activated prior to completion of medicament delivery from the medicament container. The delay mechanism automatically activates a subsystem or initiates an operation subsequent to completion of medicament delivery. The foregoing and/or other aspects of the present invention are also achieved by providing a method of delivering a medicament, the method including receiving an activation command, and in response to receiving the activation command, releasing an ejection mechanism to eject medicament from a container.

Abstract: A spark knock detection system is disclosed which has a vibration detector connected in proximity to the engine for converting a vibration into an electrical output signal representative of the vibration. A sampler which is connected to the vibration detector samples the electrical output signal and converts the electrical output signal into a numerical data pattern corresponding to the electrical output signal. A feature extractor which is connected to the sampler converts the numerical data pattern into frequency domain signal portions which have a magnitude. A classifier which is connected to the feature extractor receives the frequency domain signal portions. The classifier has predetermined coefficients for classifying the frequency domain signal portions to indicate the presence of spark knock.
