Title: Cartridge assembly for a lyophilized compound forming a disposable portion of an injector pen and method for same
Inventor: HARRIS DALE C
IPC: A61J1/20
Filed: 1994-03-15
Abstract: A cartridge assembly for holding a lyophilized product, forming a disposable portion of a pen injector includes a cylindrical glass cartridge adapted to receive the product, a closure cap, a cartridge case, and a plunger mechanism. The closure cap is adapted to retain an elastomeric disc seal during lyophilization and includes diametrically opposed ledges. The closure cap and seal are adapted to cover a neck portion of the ampule, the neck portion having on its end a radially extending circumferential flange. The ledges of the closure cap and the flange of the neck portion allow the closure cap to remain open during lyophilization, oxygen purge and nitrogen overlay. An oval-shaped indentation formed on the inside of the closure cap aids in snapping the closure cap about the flange without crimping to retain the closure cap underneath the flange. Reconstitution of the lyophilized drug is accomplished without foaming by use of an obliquely angled connector which causes the diluent to indirectly impinge on the drug. The injection pen and cartridge assembly cooperate such that the length of travel of the plunger rod during retraction is less than the axial length of a recess in the rod tip.

The sheet has a plurality of can receiving locations (13), each location having an inner opening (23) and an outer opening (24), respectively, each one of the openings being defined by a series of cuts (23, 24), respectively, in the paperboard sheet. The cuts define first, second, and third covering portions (20, 21, 22), respectively, which are joined together by a plurality of tabs (25, 26), respectively, which allow the respective covering portions to move into different planes relative to one another when the separating sheet is sandwiched between two stacked cans. In use, the third portion of the separating sheets rests on a top rim of a lower can (11), the second portion of the paperboard sheet sits between the top rim of the can and a recessed panel in which a can opening device is formed, and the first portion of the paperboard sheet covers the can opening device. So constructed, the paperboard sheet allows an upper can to rest upon a lower can without metal-to-metal contact between the cans.

Abstract: 1,266,132. Drilling machine. A. P. L. THOMAS. 12 March, 1969 [12 Dec., 1967], No. 56308/67. Heading B3C. [Also in Division F2] A self-contained machining head comprising a threaded spindle 14 drivable by motor M and axially movable by a lead nut 11 drivable by motor F, the spindle and lead nut being rotatable in the same direction, is provided with a master switch which, in one embodiment (as shown), upon actuation, connects the motor F to a current supply, and two further switches subsequently operated in succession in response to changes in the axial position of the spindle, respectively to connect the motor M and one of the motors via manually adjustable thyristors or equivalent electronic devices to the supply, and disconnect the motor F from the supply. In a second embodiment (not shown), the hand of the threads of the lead nut and spindle are opposite to those of the first embodiment, the master switch connects motor M to the current supply, and the two further switches respectively operate to connect motor F and disconnect motor M. The motors may be mounted coaxially (Fig. 1) or side-by-side (Fig. 2). The spindle 14, which is splined to the rotor 6 of motor M is connected through a gear-box 17 to one or more guide bars 15 axially movable with the spindle, the two further switches being located adjacent one guide bar for actuation thereby. The positions of the switches are adjustable relative to the guide bar. The motor which is first disconnected from the supply may, at such time, be connected to a D.C. supply to stop it instantaneously. Means may be provided for inching each motor independently to permit correct positioning of the three switches relative to the guide bar 15. The gear-box may include one or more toolcarrying spindles 18. A clutch may be provided to cause simultaneous rotation of the spindle and lead nut at the same speed; the clutch engaging after disconnection of the one motor and before disconnection of the other. As shown in Fig. 2 the clutch comprises a part 37 secured to the lead nut and a part 36 rotatable with the spindle. Where the motors are arranged side-by-side, the motor offset from the axis of the spindle may be connected by toothed belt 32 either to the lead nut or to the spindle. When both motors are running the speeds are such that the spindle is fed axially slowly toward the work. A third switch can be provided for disconnecting the second-actuated motor from the supply.

Title: Separation of components of a fluid mixture
Inventor: SMISSON BERNARD
IPC: B04C5/103
Filed: 1987-05-27
Granted: 1988-08-17
Abstract: A separator comprises a vessel having an outer wall (2) and an end wall (3). A body (14) adjacent the end wall (3) defines with the end wall (3) an annular opening (15). In use, a mixture of, for example water and solid material is introduced into the vessel through a first inlet (4). A circulating motion takes place in the vessel and the solid material falls to the end wall (3) and is removed through the opening (15) to an outlet (6) while clean water flows from the top of the vessel through an outlet (8). In order to increase the energy in the lower region of the vessel so as to assist removal of the solid material, water from the outlet (8) is passed through a pump (P) and reintroduced as energising fluid to the vessel through a recirculating port (44). Energising fluid may be taken from sources other than the outlet (8). Various alternative forms of separator are disclosed.

Inventor: TSUMURA KIYOAKI
IPC: H01L21/603
Filed: 1990-05-09
Granted: 1994-07-06
Abstract: A semiconductor device in accordance with the present invention includes a semiconductor chip 1 which is bonded to a die pad 3 by using a solder 17 having a liquidus line temperature of 370 DEG C or less which avoids cracking a glass layer 6. A copper ball formed by flaming out one end of a copper wire 8 is moved downward to an Al electrode pad 5 on the semiconductor chip and brought into contact for less than 150 ms also avoiding cracking the glasslayer. Plastic deformation then occurs so that the copper ball is pressed to the aluminum electrode pad in such a manner that the height of the copper ball is 25 gm or less. A silver plating 2 is utilized on the die pad and an Au-metallized layer 16 on the rear side of the semiconductor chip. The method also decreases the work hardening property of the Cu ball and prevent Al exclusion when the Cu ball is bonded to the Al electrode pad. <IMAGE>

Title: Radio frequency switch
Inventor: STEVENS RODERICK LEONARD WALLA
IPC: H03K17/56
Filed: 1998-04-14
Granted: 2002-07-17
Abstract: A diode 30 is forward-biased by the complementary outputs of an ECL bistable 22 so that RF signals may pass between terminals 26 and 28. Rapid switching is possible because there are no biasing inductors. When the bistable outputs toggle, the diode is reverse-biased and the RF signal is blocked. A diode bridge (figure 3) comprising two diode pairs in separate packages may be used instead of a single diode to improve isolation between ports 26 and 28 when the switch is off.
