Patent number: 9205025Abstract: A system for mixing the contents of a first container with the contents of a second container. The second container has a port assembly for receiving the first container. The port assembly has an actuator that is constructed to access the cavity of the first container during activation of the system and to allow fluid communication between the first container and the second container. The port assembly further includes a movable plug that provides a seal for the second container. The plug is configured to move axially relative to the actuator during activation of the system, thereby opening the seal of the second container and providing fluid communication between the first container and the second container.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2013Date of Patent: December 8, 2015Assignee: Hospira, Inc.Inventors: Yei F. Moy, Stanley F. Pytel, John S. Ziegler, Jesse C. Darley, Douglas S. Rodenkirch

Patent number: 9205026Abstract: A medicament container having an opening that provides access to a cavity defined by the medicament container. A stopper is sealingly positioned within the opening of the medicament container and configured to be forced into the cavity to open the medicament container. The medicament container also includes a mating member configured to mate with a complementary receiver associated with a second container to connect the medicament container to a second container. The medicament container further includes a radial seal configured to engage and seal against an interior seal wall associated with a second container prior to the stopper being forced into the cavity defined by the medicament container. A system is also provided for establishing fluid communication between a first container and a second container. The system includes a first container (e.g., a medicament container) having a radial seal, a second container, and a port assembly.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2013Date of Patent: December 8, 2015Assignee: Hospira, Inc.Inventors: Yei F. Moy, Stanley F. Pytel, John S. Ziegler, Jesse C. Darley, Douglas S. Rodenkirch

Patent number: 9198832Abstract: A port assembly for enabling contents of a first container to be mixed with contents of a second container. The port assembly has a port housing that is configured to receive a first container. The port assembly further includes an actuator axially fixed within a cavity of the port housing. The actuator is configured to open a first container by forcing a stopper sealing an opening of a first container into a cavity of a first container during activation.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2013Date of Patent: December 1, 2015Assignee: Hospira, Inc.Inventors: Yei F. Moy, Stanley F. Pytel, John S. Ziegler, Jesse C. Darley, Douglas S. Rodenkirch

Patent number: 8801689Abstract: A system for mixing or reconstituting a drug contained in a first container with a diluent or fluid contained in a second container. The second container has a port docking assembly for engaging the first container. The first container is rotatable and axially slidable within the port docking assembly. The port docking assembly has an actuator to urge a stopper fluidly sealing the first container into the interior of the first container. The port docking assembly further includes a movable plug constructed to fluidly seal the second container in a first, docked position and to provide access to the interior of the second container in a second, activated position, whereby fluid communication between the first and second containers is provided when the first and second containers are in the second, activated position.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2008Date of Patent: August 12, 2014Assignee: Hospira, Inc.Inventors: Yei F. Moy, Stanley F. Pytel, John S. Ziegler, Jesse C. Darley, Douglas S. Rodenkirch

Patent number: 8591491Abstract: A fluid delivery device such as a cassette removably disposed in a medical pump to control fluid flow in the medical pump. The fluid delivery device has an elongated main body including an inlet, an outlet, and a fluid passage extending from the inlet to the outlet. A flow stop is pivotally mounted to the main body for selectively allowing and stopping fluid flow from the fluid passage to the outlet. The fluid delivery device can have various features including the flow stop having grooved sections, a T-shaped collar on the main body inlet or a flange on the main body to prevent inadvertent engagement of the flow stop during removal of the fluid delivery device from the medical pump.Type: GrantFiled: July 2, 2012Date of Patent: November 26, 2013Assignee: Hospira, Inc.Inventors: Yei F.
