Patent EP-3501580-A1 (EP)
Inventor: RUAN TIEMING
IPC: A61M5/32
Filed: 2009-08-17
Abstract: In one aspect, a safety pen needle assembly is provided herein which includes a hub with a needle fixed to the hub, the needle having a distal end, formed for insertion into a patient, and a proximal end. The assembly further includes a shield and a biasing member disposed between the hub and the shield configured to urge the shield distally. A protrusion extends from at least one of the hub and the shield with a channel being formed in at least the other of the hub and the shield. The channel is formed to accommodate the protrusion. The shield is movable from a first position to a second position. In the first position, the shield is spaced from the distal end of the needle such that the distal end of the needle is exposed. In the second position, the shield covers the distal end of the needle. The channel guides the protrusion as the shield moves from the first position to the second position. With this arrangement, a shield may be directed to move in a desired path with stability. In addition, the distal end of the needle may be initially exposed to permit visual confirmation of priming, while allowing the shield to cover a majority of the needle to minimize any needle-related anxiety.

Abstract: The invention relates to a battery powered device for communicating with an access point device (34) of a communication network (36), the device (10) comprising: a communication unit (12) for communicating with the access point device (34); a processing unit (14) for controlling the communication unit (12); wherein the communication unit (12) comprises an active mode and a low power mode; wherein the communication unit (12) is further configured to provide a lost registration signal (46) indicating that the communication unit (12) is not registered at the access point device (34); wherein the processing unit (14) is configured to receive the lost registration signal (46); wherein, upon reception of the lost registration signal (46), the processing unit (14) is further configured to provide a release signal (48) to the communication unit (12), wherein the release signal (48) forces the communication unit (12) to stop communication or to detach from the access point device (34); wherein, upon reception of the lost registration signal (46), the processing unit (14) is further configured to provide a low power mode signal (50), wherein the low power signal transfers the communication unit (12) into the low power mode, wherein the processing unit (14) is further configured to provide an attach signal to the communication unit (12) after a predefined waiting period (54), wherein the attach signal transfers the communication unit (12) to the active mode and which orders the communication unit (12) to get a registration or to establish a connection to the access point device (34). The access point device (34) will therefore grant the communication unit (12) a higher priority for establishing a connection than if the communication unit (12) was not registered or detached for just a short period. Thus, after the waiting period the communication unit (12) will likely require a smaller number of connection attempts than without the waiting period. Since each connection attempt consumes a certain amount of battery power, the communication unit (12) will consume less battery power than without the waiting period. Over the lifetime of the device (10), this will significantly increase the lifetime of the battery and the device (10).
