Balloon type liquid medicine injector
11504301 · 2022-11-22 ·

A balloon type liquid medicine injector for continuously injecting a small amount of liquid medicine into a body of a patient is disclosed as to be easily assembled and to prevent unnecessary dead space while being inflated after a liquid medicine is injected, so as to be miniaturized. When a tube body is provided outside a fixed pipe, both ends of the tube body are folded and inserted into both ends of the fixed tube, to remove the dead space while being inserted inside the case. In addition, in a state where the both ends of the tube body are folded and inserted into the both ends of the fixed tube, an injection mechanism for injecting the liquid medicine or a stopper mechanism are coupled while pressing the tube body folded inward, so that a separate packing is unnecessary and the airtightness is maintained.

Deformable drug reservoir for wearable drug delivery device

A drug delivery device has a housing with an adhesive pad associated with the lower surface of the housing and configured to removably attach to a human body surface. A deformable drug reservoir is positioned within the housing and includes an outlet, with a needle fluidically connected to the drug reservoir and configured to define at least a portion of a fluid flow path between the drug reservoir and said human body surface. A delivery assembly is associated with the drug reservoir and includes a roller and a drive assembly, with the drive assembly being controlled by the controller during a drug delivery routine to move the roller from a first position to a second position so as to cause the roller to contact and deform the reservoir, thereby conveying a drug from the reservoir via the outlet.

Patch-sized fluid delivery systems and methods

A patch-sized fluid delivery device may include a reusable portion and a disposable portion. The disposable portion may include components that come into contact with the fluid, while the reusable portion may include only components that do not come into contact with the fluid. Redundant systems, such as redundant controllers, power sources, motor actuators, and alarms, may be provided. Alternatively or additionally, certain components can be multi-functional, such a microphones and loudspeakers that may be used for both acoustic volume sensing and for other functions and a coil that may be used as both an inductive coupler for a battery recharger and an antenna for a wireless transceiver. Various types of network interfaces may be provided in order to allow for remote control and monitoring of the device.

PORTABLE INFUSION PUMP WITH NEGATIVE PRESSURE CONTROL
20230093674 · 2023-03-23 ·

A portable system and method for infusing fluid medicaments to a patient through an elastomeric fluid channel includes an airtight pressure shell for holding a collapsible bag of the fluid medicament to be infused. A pressure sensor connected to the pressure shell monitors decreases below ambient pressure inside the shell to determine when the ambient pressure becomes insufficient to continue assisting the withdrawal of fluid from the collapsible bag, to an external pinch/squeeze unit. At this point, an equilibrator operates to reestablish ambient pressure in the pressure shell for continued operation. In operation, the pinch/squeeze unit exerts radial forces on the elastomeric fluid channel. These forces act to sequentially push fluid medicament for infusion to the patient when the elastomeric fluid channel is occluded and stressed, and draw fluid medicament from the collapsible bag as the elastomeric fluid channel is unstressed.
