Abstract: A fluid collection or infusion set is provided. The set includes flexible tubing
with a fitting attached to a proximal end and a needle assembly attached to the distal end. The
needle assembly includes a needle hub (36) and a needle cannula (34) secured in the hub. An actuator arm (60)
extends proximally and outwardly from the needle hub (36) and has an actuator button (64) at its free end.
The needle assembly is disposed in a barrel (20+22) and can move from a distal position where the needle
cannula (34) is exposed to a proximal position where the needle cannula is shielded. A spring (18) is
disposed in the barrel for propelling the needle assembly to the proximal position. The barrel

Patent EP-1406239-A1 (EP)
Inventor: WENDLING PHILIPPE
IPC: G09G3/20
Filed: 2002-10-02
Abstract: Original design manufacturers increasingly source standard components
from a variety of suppliers. Manufacturing tolerances often result in
the obtained components having different performances. In the case of a flat
panel display such as, for example, an LCD panel, these manufacturing
performance differences may manifest themselves in colour variations as
between LCD panels. This problem has been addressed in the past by
providing tailored firmware for each of the display devices that takes
into account the variations in the characteristics of the display
devices. This approach bears significant manufacturing and support
penalties. Suitably, embodiments of the present invention provide a
display unit having associated operational data that allows firmware to
take into account the specific characteristics of a flat panel display
of that unit when rendering video data or signals.
