Insertion device for an insertion set and method of using the same

An insertion device and insertion set. The insertion device for inserting at least a portion of at least one piercing member of an insertion set through the skin of a patient includes a device housing, a carrier body and a driver. The carrier body is slidably received within the device housing for movement between an advanced position and a retracted position. The carrier body also includes a receiving structure to support the insertion set in a position with the at least one piercing member oriented for insertion through the skin of the patient at a predetermined or variable angle relative to the skin of the patient upon movement of the carrier body from the retracted position to the advanced position. The driver is operatively coupled between the device housing and the carrier body to urge the carrier body from the retracted position toward the advanced position to place at least a portion of the at least one piercing member of the insertion set thorough the skin of the patient to install the insertion set to the patient. The receiving structure of the carrier body is removable from the insertion set while maintaining the installation of the insertion set to the patient.

Objective with pupil obscuration

An objective is configured with a first partial objective and a second partial objective. The first partial objective, which projects a first field plane onto an intermediate image, has a first, convex mirror and a second, concave mirror. The second partial objective, which projects the intermediate image onto a second field plane, has a third and a fourth mirror, both concave. All of the four mirrors have central mirror apertures. The axial distance between the first and second mirrors is in a ratio between 0.95 and 1.05 relative to the distance between the second mirror and the intermediate image. The axial distance ZM3-IM between the third mirror and the second field plane conforms to the relationship 0.03·DuM3+5.0⁢ ⁢mm<ZM3-IM<0.25·DuM3tan⁡(arcsin⁡(NA)).NA represents the numerical aperture NA in the second field plane, and DuM3 represents the diameter of the third mirror.

Safety catheter system and method

A catheter integral with a valved needle-free connector provides a safety catheter device configured to receive a blunt cannula and sharp needle forming an insertion mechanism. The sharp needle is mounted within a needle tube and a control handle is used to slide the sharp needle out of and into the protective needle tube. When the insertion mechanism is mounted to the connector and the control handle is used to slide the sharp needle out of the tube, a blunt cannula first moves into contact with and enters the bore of the valve mechanism of the connector opening it and protecting it from damage that may be caused by the sharp needle. The sharp needle is then extended through the connector and extends out the distal end of the catheter so that a venipuncture procedure may be performed to properly locate the catheter in the patient's circulatory system. Once located, the needle may be retracted into the insertion mechanism, the insertion mechanism disconnected from the connector, and discarded.

Gesture Controlled Adaptive Projected Information Handling System Input and Output Devices

Projected input and output devices adapt to a desktop environment by sensing objects at the desktop environment and altering projected light in response to the sensed objects. For instance, projection of input and output devices is altered to limit illumination against and end user's hands or other objects disposed at a projection surface. End user hand positions and motions are detected to provide gesture support for adapting a projection work space, and configurations of projected devices are stored so that an end user can rapidly recreate a projected desktop. A projector scan adjusts to limit traces across inactive portions of the display surface and to increase traces at predetermined areas, such as video windows.

Hand-heldt type projector

Modulated light (image light) which has been modulated by passing through a liquid crystal display panel passes through an apical angle variable prism (so-called, a vari-angle prism) and then is enlarged and projected by a projection lens. The apical angle variable prism is configured to change the prism apical angle with, for example, an electromagnetic actuator. The microcomputer calculates a projection optical axis correction value based on hand shake detection signals from a sensor and controls the aforementioned actuator based on the correction value. With this control, shakes of projected images due to hand shakes are prevented.

Fluid drop projecting head using taper-shaped chamber for generating a converging surface wave

InactiveUS6328421B1Easy to changeReadily varying drop sizePrintingPiezoelectric actuatorsEngineering
A fluid drop projecting apparatus which can fly, one by one, fluid drops far smaller than the opening bore from which the drops are projected, and moreover cay readily vary the size of the fluid drops, is provided. To this end, surface waves travelling toward a fluid drop projecting point are applied on the free surface of fluid in a fluid drop projecting chamber having an opening. The surface waves are generated by a surface wave generator including the fluid drop projecting chamber, a diaphragm and a piezo actuator. As the surface waves are generated by the surface wave generator at substantially equal distances from a fluid drop projecting point, the height of the surface waves gradually increases, amplified by their interference, and fluid drops are separated at and projected from the fluid drop projecting point.
