An adhesive layer applicator for a body-mountable device is disclosed. The applicator includes a housing defining a first opening through which a chamber is accessible, and a plurality of adhesive layers and a plurality of adhesive liners alternately stacked on a floor that is movable within the chamber. The size and shape of the opening corresponds to the size and shape of the body-mountable device. The housing is configured to receive at least a portion of the body-mountable device through the opening. A second opening is formed in each adhesive layer in the plurality of adhesive layers and a gel is accommodated within the second openings.

A cabinet for first aid supplies employs a pair of shell sections which are pivotal between a closed position and an opened position. A frontal shell section defines one or more openings which communicate with a respective dispenser receptacle disposed inside of and carried by the frontal shell section. A stack of items is disposed in each dispenser receptacle and is engaged by an integrated leaf spring. An item may be expeditiously removed from either dispenser receptacle through the opening while the cabinet is closed. The openings and springs are configured to provide ready access to selected first aid items while protecting the items in an orderly fashion.

The present invention is a spring loaded disposable glove box dispenser. The invention consists of a cylindrical shell which has two sections. The lower section has a flat plate with a compressed spring under said plate. Inside the cylindrical shell are flexible protrusions affixed to the sides of the cylindrical shell. These flexible protrusions are designed to allow the flat plate to pass them as said plate is pushed upward by the spring but do not allow the flat plate to be pressed downward to recompress the spring. A plurality of disposable gloves are stored above the flat plate. Gloves are removed from the device via an aperture at the top of the shell. As gloves are removed, the spring expands pushing the flat plate and the supply of gloves towards the top of the device.

A method is disclosed that includes removing an adhesive layer from a lower housing of a monitoring device; aligning the monitoring device with an opening of an adhesive applicator; coupling an uppermost adhesive layer that is positioned within the adhesive applicator with the lower housing; and removing the monitoring device from the opening of the adhesive applicator. A shape of the lower housing of the monitor corresponds to the shape of the opening of the adhesive applicator; and aligning the monitoring device with the opening of the adhesive applicator comprises matching the orientation of the lower housing to the orientation of the opening in the adhesive applicator. The method also includes the monitoring device selectively entering a battery preservation mode.

Devices, systems, and methods for detecting molecules of interest within a collected sample are described herein. In certain embodiments, self-contained sample analysis systems are disclosed, which include a reusable reader component, a disposable cartridge component, and a disposable sample collection component. The reader component may communicate with a remote computing device for the digital transmission of test protocols and test results. In various disclosed embodiments, the systems, components, and methods are configured to identify the presence, absence, and/or quantity of particular nucleic acids, proteins, or other analytes of interest, for example, in order to test for the presence of one or more pathogens or contaminants in a sample.

A dispenser includes a housing including an opening, a lid for covering the housing opening, a reservoir for holding items to be dispensed from the dispenser, and a dispensing opening on the lid providing access to the reservoir.

An article advancing assembly and various article advancers are provided for helping dispense articles from a container. In some forms, the article advancers are provided that can bias the contents of the containers towards the dispensing opening. This can, in some forms, provide extra friction within the container and/or at the dispensing opening to decrease extra contents from being dispensed and thus decrease waste.

The present disclosure is directed to a dispensing assembly for dispensing articles, such as disposable gloves, and methods of manufacturing same. The dispensing assembly includes a container having a plurality of exterior panels. The exterior panels define an internal chamber and an dispenser opening on the container. The dispensing assembly also includes an article dispensing component housed within the internal chamber. The article dispensing component includes a first panel and a second panel configured together to form an article storage area. The article storage area is configured to receive a plurality of articles. In addition, the first panel is stationary and the second panel is biased towards the first panel via one or more flexible members. Further, the first and second panels include one or more aligned recesses configured to receive the one or more flexible members. Thus, the second panel is configured to maintain the articles adjacent to the dispenser opening of the container as the articles are dispensed from the opening of the container.
