Patent number: 11939254Abstract: An installation for quenching a glass hollow body includes a plurality of external nozzles and an axial nozzle. The plurality of external nozzles are positioned around a main axis. Each of the plurality of external nozzles includes an axial slot configured to direct an air jet towards the main axis. The axial nozzle is aligned along the main axis and includes a shape configured to form an internal air jet forming a ring with an opening at a center thereof in a plane transverse to the main axis. The axial nozzle forming the internal air jet positioned substantially external to and above the bore.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 2023Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: CROSSJECTInventors: Christophe Auriel, Xavier Vigot

Patent number: 11738151Abstract: A needleless injection device is provided that includes a body forming a housing, a gas generator, a tubular reservoir that contains an active ingredient, and a T-shaped elastically deformable membrane having a tubular portion. The reservoir extends axially in the housing from an upper end to a lower end and the tubular portion is configured to extend and lie axially in the reservoir under an effect of a pressure generated by the gas generator. An injection nozzle is arranged at the lower end of the reservoir. The tubular portion is funnel shaped and includes at least an upper segment that decreases along an axial elongation direction of the member and a lower segment that increases along the axial elongation direction. The axial length of the upper segment is greater than that of the lower segment.Type: GrantFiled: August 14, 2018Date of Patent: August 29, 2023Assignee: CROSSJECTInventors: Xavier Vigot, Christophe Auriel

Patent number: 11654230Abstract: A tray intended to hold injection device tubes includes a collar at each end of a body. In order to carry out operations of preparing the injection device tubes, the tray includes bores and each bore is configured to receive a body of an injection device tube. Also, each bore of the tray includes a holding portion for holding the upper collar of the tube and the holding portion extends laterally from an introduction portion enabling the passage of the lower collar.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 2019Date of Patent: May 23, 2023Assignee: CROSSJECTInventors: Gilles Vivien, Xavier Vigot, Magalie Labrot

Patent number: 11643353Abstract: A method for air quenching a glass hollow body elongated along a main axis, including a wall having an external surface, and an internal surface formed by a bore extending in height along the main axis, is provided. The method includes simultaneously blasting air jets towards the surfaces of the glass hollow body using air blast nozzles directed towards the surfaces. External nozzles distribute air jets over the external surface of the glass hollow body and a nozzle above the bore of the glass hollow body and aligned along the main axis distributes an internal air jet over the internal surface of the glass hollow body. In a transverse plane to the main axis the internal air jet is in the form of a crown having a recess at the center.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2017Date of Patent: May 9, 2023Assignee: CROSSJECTInventors: Christophe Auriel, Xavier Vigot

Patent number: 10835679Abstract: A needleless injector includes a cap, an injection system, a body, a gas generator, and a percussion device. The body is covered by the cap and is mounted to slide relative to the cap. The percussion device includes a striker that is slidingly mounted along a sliding axis between a rest position and a percussion position and a lock mechanism. The lock mechanism includes a lug and a retention tab. The lug projects from a peripheral face of the striker along an axis that is perpendicular to the sliding axis and has a first support ramp. The retention tab is attached to the cap, and has a second support ramp. The ramps are configured to move the retention tab radially when pushed by the striker from a retaining position to a release position and the retention tab is moved aside to release the striker.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2017Date of Patent: November 17, 2020Assignee: CROSSJECTInventors: Gilles Vivien, Xavier Vigot

Patent number: 10799638Abstract: The present disclosure is directed towards a needleless injection device that includes a body, a gas generator, an injection system that extends axially along an injection axis and includes at least one plunger, an active ingredient reservoir, an injection nozzle that delimits at least one injection channel, a cover that houses the body of the device, a removable cap that protects a lower downstream end of the injection nozzle, a stopper that houses the cap, and a blocking element. The stopper is pivotally mounted about the injection axis between a closed position in which the stopper is locked on the injection device and an open position in which the stopper is unlocked from the injection device. The blocking element is radially interposed between the cap and the stopper, and is configured to block, by friction, the relative pivoting of the cap and of the stopper, about the injection axis.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2017Date of Patent: October 13, 2020Assignee: CROSSJECTInventors: Gilles Vivien, Xavier Vigot

Patent number: 10653839Abstract: The present disclosure concerns a needleless injection device including a body forming a housing, a gas generator, a tubular reservoir which contains an active ingredient to be injected, and a generally T-shaped elastically deformable membrane. The membrane includes a tubular portion which extends axially in the reservoir and is designed to lie axially in the reservoir under the effect of the pressure generated by the gas generator. A nozzle for injecting the active ingredient is arranged at the lower end of the reservoir. The device further includes a sock which wraps the tubular portion of the membrane, at least partially. The sock is adapted to limit the friction between the tubular portion of the membrane and the reservoir.Type: GrantFiled: August 14, 2018Date of Patent: May 19, 2020Assignee: CROSSJECTInventors: Xavier Vigot, Christophe Auriel
