Portable, reusable dispensing assembly having multiple operating modes
A portable, reusable dispensing assembly having multiple operating modes is provided. The assembly includes a housing having a compartment which is refillable with an elongated medication strip having a plurality of dosage form packages spaced apart along a longitudinal axis of the strip. A bi-directional, electromechanical actuator advances a first end of the strip from the compartment to a dose-ready area in the housing in a dispensing mode of the assembly and loads the strip into the compartment in a loading mode of the assembly. An actuator controller is configured to receive power and direction command signals to controllably supply DC power of a desired polarity to the actuator to control the operating mode of the assembly.
Inductive sensor module assembly with a center signal processor
Embodiments of the present invention are directed to a novel inductive rotational position sensor that includes a sensor module having transmitting and receiving coils formed on a printed circuit board with a signal processor located in a center area enclosed by the transmitting and receiving coils.
