Title: Orally disintegrating dosage form for administration of avanafil, and associated methods of manufacture and use
Inventor: BROMAN CALVIN THEODORE
IPC: A61K47/10
Filed: 2015-05-15
Abstract: Formulations are provided for the oral administration of avanafil, a Type V phosphodiesterase inhibitor ("PDE V inhibitor"), and analogs thereof. The formulations are orally disintegrating tablets (ODTs) that rapidly dissolve or disintegrate in the oral cavity. The tablets contain an absorption enhancing composition that increases the duodenal absorption of the active agent, following transfer from the low pH environment of the stomach to the more basic pH of the duodenum. Methods for administering the active agent using the dosage forms are provided. The invention also encompasses a method of selecting components and compositions to incorporate in the formulations which will facilitate increased absorption of the active agent in the duodenum and thus serve as "absorption enhancing compositions" herein. Also provided are methods for manufacturing orally disintegrating tablets to optimize the physical properties of the dosage forms, particularly hardness and disintegration time.

Title: Method for attaching pumps to electric motors
Inventor: MEZA HUMBERTO V
IPC: F04B53/16
Filed: 2015-07-08
Abstract: A pump features a motor, a pump head (PH) and a locking pin (LP) that are uniquely coupled together. The motor has a front end bell (FEB) with a FEB coupling portion configured with twist lock style (TLS) connections with locking portions, and an outer surface with a detent. Each locking portion engages a respective corresponding locking portion when the FEB coupling portion, and the PH coupling portion is twisted together in relation to one another about the longitudinal axis of the pump. Each locking stop abuts against a respective locking portion to stop the FEB coupling portion and the PH coupling portion from twisting together, so the detent and the threaded orifice are aligned to receive the LP, and the motor and pump head are locked together and cannot be pulled apart.
