  • Patent number: 12366420
    Abstract: A radiator joint is provided that include a first component, a second component and a weld seam, that together define a bird beak joint. The first component has generally circular cross-sectional profile. At an end of the first body there is a bird beak cut section that forms a first mating surface. The second component can function as a manifold. It has a generally rectangular cross sectional profile and an aperture. The aperture extends along at least two sides of the second component. The weld seam is disposed at the first mating surface and couples the first component to the second component. A fluidic seal is thereby formed between the hollow interior and the exterior while defining a fluid flow path through the first and second components.

  • Patent number: 11850444
    Abstract: A medical apparatus and method of operating a medical apparatus are disclosed. The apparatus includes a radiation source for emitting radiation towards an area to be treated of a patient; a mount element arranged to be worn by the patient for positioning the radiation source in a predetermined position relative to the area to be treated; a sensor element arranged to provide a signal indicative of whether the apparatus is being worn by the patient; and at least one controller arranged to receive the signal from the sensor, and to determine whether the apparatus is being worn by the patient, and to determine duration data indicative of the duration for which the radiation source emits radiation whilst the apparatus is being worn by the patient.
