摘要:
A method of injecting a substance into an eye is disclosed. A connection between a disposable tip segment and a limited reuse assembly is recognized. A temperature control device is activated to alter the temperature of a substance contained in a dispensing chamber. Dosage information is read. In response to the dosage information, a mechanical linkage interface is advanced to advance a plunger to expel the substance from the dispensing chamber. The mechanical linkage interface is retracted without substantially retracting the plunger to prevent reflux of the substance. Reuse of the disposable tip segment is prevented. The removal of the disposable tip segment from the limited reuse assembly is recognized.
摘要:
An injection device has a dispensing chamber housing, a plunger, and a temperature control device. The dispensing chamber housing has a first part and a second part. The first part is thermally coupled to a needle. The second part is thermally coupled to the first part. The second part has an inner surface and an outer surface. The inner surface partially defines a dispensing chamber for holding a quantity of a substance. The plunger is engaged with an inner surface of the dispensing chamber housing, is capable of sliding in the dispensing chamber housing, and is fluidly sealed to the inner surface of the dispensing chamber housing. The temperature control device at least partially surrounds the dispensing chamber housing and is capable of altering a temperature of the substance in the dispensing chamber. The second part has a greater thermal coefficient than the first part.

An ophthalmic injection device has a dispensing chamber housing, a plunger, a needle fluidly coupled to a dispensing chamber, a temperature control device, a power source for providing power to the temperature control device, a controller for controlling the temperature control device, and a mechanical linkage mechanism. The interior surface of the dispensing chamber housing partially defines a dispensing chamber for holding a quantity of a substance. The plunger is engaged with the inner surface of the dispensing chamber housing, is capable of sliding in the dispensing chamber housing, and is fluidly sealed to the inner surface of the dispensing chamber housing. A plunger shaft is coupled to the plunger. The temperature control device can alter the temperature of the substance contained therein. The mechanical linkage mechanism has at least two pivots and at least two shafts and transfers force from a lever to the plunger.

An endoluminal prosthesis comprises a prosthetic trunk comprising a trunk lumen extending therethrough, a wall, and an anastomosis in the wall, wherein the prosthetic trunk has a circumference. The endoluminal prosthesis further comprises a prosthetic branch comprising a branch lumen extending therethrough. The branch lumen is in fluid communication with the trunk lumen through the anastomosis. The prosthetic branch is disposed longitudinally along and circumferentially about the prosthetic trunk.

The invention disclosed is a fire resistant inorganic coating composition which intumesces when subject to high temperatures to form a substantially continuous heat insulating structure and retains this structure for prolonged periods at temperatures up to 1000.degree. C. The coating composition comprises______________________________________ Parts by Weight ______________________________________ sodium silicate (aqueous solution) 40-70 potassium silicate (aqueous solution) 40-70 silicon carbide powder 3-15 ______________________________________ A composite fire-protective coating system is also disclosed which comprises a plurality of coatings sequentially applied to the substrate, typically aluminum, to be protected. Specifically, a first heat resistant, substantially air impermeable bonding layer and an inorganic intumescent layer as described above. An additional heat resistant air impermeable layer may be included as a top coat. Some applications may require an additional inorganic intumescent layer.

A disposable injection device has a dispensing chamber housing, a plunger, a needle, and a temperature control device. The dispensing chamber housing has an inner surface and an outer surface. The inner surface partially defines a dispensing chamber for receiving a quantity of a substance. The plunger is engaged with the inner surface of the dispensing chamber housing, is capable of sliding in the dispensing chamber housing, and is fluidly sealed to the inner surface of the dispensing chamber housing. The plunger has a plunger interface. The needle is fluidly coupled to the dispensing chamber. The temperature control device at least partially surrounds the dispensing chamber housing and alters a temperature of the substance in the dispensing chamber. The substance is injected after the temperature of the substance is altered.
摘要:
A disposable drug delivery device has a dispensing needle, a plunger, a spring, a shaft, and a lock mechanism. The plunger is engaged with the inner surface of the dispensing needle, is capable of sliding in the cavity of the dispensing needle, and is fluidly sealed to the inner surface of the dispensing needle. The spring is connected to the plunger via a shaft. The lock mechanism holds the shaft in a first position such that the spring is in a compressed state. When the lock mechanism releases the shaft, the spring extends providing a force that moves the shaft and connected plunger in a direction toward the tapered end of the dispensing needle thereby expelling the drug from the dispensing needle into an eye. The spring also provides a retaining force so that the plunger is retained in an extended position against the tapered end of the dispensing needle.

A disposable injection device has a dispensing chamber housing and a plunger. The dispensing chamber housing has an inner surface and an outer surface. The inner surface partially defines a dispensing chamber for receiving a quantity of a substance. The plunger is engaged with the inner surface of the dispensing chamber housing, is capable of sliding in the dispensing chamber housing, and is fluidly sealed to the inner surface of the dispensing chamber housing. The plunger has a plunger interface. The plunger interface mates with a mating surface on a mechanical linkage interface such that force is transferred from the mechanical linkage interface to the plunger along a first direction towards the plunger when the plunger interface is in contact with the mating surface of the mechanical linkage interface, and force is not substantially transferred from the mechanical linkage interface to the plunger along a second direction away from the plunger.
摘要:
The invention provides a computer system and method for trading instruments using a data communications network which allows users to selectively view market depth information for the instruments in a plurality of different styles, each style corresponding to one of the plurality of available market depth views. The user can switch back and forth between the plurality of market depth views, as many times as he likes, by using an input device to activate a control on a trading panel to select from the plurality of available views. The system includes a network interface for receiving a set of orders for the instrument from the data communications network, a display device, and a view processor configured to display on the display device a trading panel comprising a market depth grid containing sizes and rates that are derived from the set of orders received from the data communications network. The sizes and rates displayed on the market depth grid are determined by the selected market depth view.
