Intravenous Tube And Controller Therefor
US Patent:
4713063, Dec 15, 1987
Filed:
May 1, 1986
Appl. No.:
6/857974
Inventors:
John F. Krumme - Woodside CA
Assignee:
Beta Phase, Inc. - Menlo Park CA
International Classification:
A61M 500
US Classification:
604250
Abstract:
A tube for use in a flow controller of an intravenous or other slow flow control apparatus has a configuration somewhat like the opening defined by the open eyelids of the human eye whereby to provide relatively sharp corners and narrow width of the opening to reduce materially the force required to close relative to that required to close a round tube and to reduce the movement of the flow control element of the controller, which controller is configured to take advantage of the shape of the tube and employs a shape memory control element to adjust rate of flow of the fluid; the controller also including a brake element to lock the flow rate at a particular preselectable rate.

John W. Parissenti - San Jose CA, US
International Classification:
A61M 5/315, A61M 5/20, B23P 11/00
US Classification:
604143, 604218, 29428
Abstract:
An apparatus includes a tubular member and a spherical piston disposed within a lumen defined by the tubular member. The tubular member includes a distal end portion and a central portion. The distal end portion is configured to be coupled to a needle. At least the central portion of the tubular member is curved. The spherical piston is movably disposed with the lumen such that the lumen is divided into a first portion and a second portion. The first portion of the lumen configured to contain a medicament.
Autoregulating, Electrically Shielded Heater
US Patent:
4695713, Sep 22, 1987
Filed:
Oct 19, 1983
Appl. No.:
6/543443
Inventors:
John F. Krumme - Woodside CA
Assignee:
Metcal, Inc. - Menlo Park CA
International Classification:
H05B 310
US Classification:
219553
Abstract:
An autoregulating, electrically shielded heater employs a laminated structure having two magnetic alloy permeable materials of widely differing Curie point temperatures and preferably of differing resistivities. A constant current supply is connected across the laminate such that current flows in the laminae along parallel paths. Due to skin effect, the current is confined to a thin region of a first lamina which is located between the other lamina and the electrical return path. This first lamina has the lower Curie temperature and preferably the higher resistivity of the two laminae to produce heating proportional to I. sup. 2 R. sub. 1. When the Curie temperature of the first lamina is approached, the current spreads into the other lamina which may have a lower resistivity and higher Curie temperature and heating is obtained by I. sup. 2 R. sub. 2 where I. sup. 2 is a constant due to the constant current source and preferably R. sub. 2 <R. sub. 1.
