  • Publication number: 20250149839
    Abstract: A connector assembly includes first and second connectors. Each connector has a plurality of terminals spatially distributed around an axis of a circularly symmetric surface. The second connector further includes diodes to control the direction of current flow between the terminals and an outflow point and an inflow point. The number of first terminals does not equal the number of second terminals such that, when the first and second surfaces are connected, regardless of the rotational orientation of the first surface with respect to the second surface, each pair of first terminals are electrically connected to the inflow and outflow points; and no pair of first terminals are electrically connected to the same second terminal.

  • Publication number: 20250144334
    Abstract: A liquid ventilation system includes a reservoir holding a perfluorochemical (“PFC”) fluid, and a suction pump connected to the reservoir to reduce pressure within the reservoir. A sensor is configured to measure an intra-lung pressure. An appliance is configured to be disposed within a patient. The appliance carries an injector to supply the PFC fluid through the appliance. An extraction valve is disposed on an extraction line between the appliance and the reservoir. The extraction valve is arrangeable between a first position enabling fluid communication from the appliance to the reservoir and a second position disabling fluid communication from the appliance to the reservoir.

  • Patent number: 12289130
    Abstract: Provided is a contactless connector that includes an antenna system and a wireless transceiver coupled to the antenna system and configured to simultaneously transmit a transmission signal and receive a received signal through the antenna system. The wireless transceiver includes a transformer, a wide-band phase shifter and a combiner. The transformer has a primary coil with a center tap to which the transmission signal is coupled and a first end that is coupled to the antenna system. The transmission signal also is coupled to an input of the wide-band phase shifter. The transformer also has a secondary coil, an output of the secondary coil is coupled to a first input of the combiner, an output of the wide-band phase shifter is coupled to a second input of a combiner, and an output of the combiner provides a self-interference-canceled version of the received signal.

  • Publication number: 20250114516
    Abstract: An intravenous line connector assembly has a first and second connectors, each having a lumen and an electrical terminal. When the first connector is connected to the second connector, the first lumen is connected to the second lumen to allow fluid communication between the first and second connectors, and the first terminals are connected with the second terminals to allow electrical signals to pass between the first and second connectors. These connectors allow an intravenous line network to be formed which carried both fluids and electrical signals. The electrical signals can then be used to communicate between components of the intravenous line network to help improve the care of the patient.

  • Patent number: 12204785
    Abstract: There is provided a data processing apparatus in which decode circuitry receives a memory copy instruction containing an indication of a source area of memory, an indication of a destination area of memory, and an indication of a remaining copy length. In response to receiving the memory copy instruction, the decode circuitry generates at least one active memory copy operation or a null memory copy operation. The active memory copy operation causes one or more execution units to perform a memory copy from part of the source area of memory to part of the destination area of memory and the null memory copy operation leaves the destination area of memory unmodified.
