Anti-Drawback Medical Valve

View page
US Patent:
6755391, Jun 29, 2004
Filed:
Oct 22, 2001
Appl. No.:
10/007377
Inventors:
Brian L. Newton - Woonsocket RI
Charles F. Ganem - Cape Neddick ME
Scott Castanon - York Beach ME
Assignee:
Nypro Inc. - Clinton MA
International Classification:
F16K 5100
US Classification:
2511496, 2511491, 604249, 604905
Abstract:
A medical valve has a translating member that enlarges the volume of the interior of the valve when the valve is in an open mode (permitting fluid flow), and decreases the volume of the interior when the valve is in a closed mode (preventing fluid flow). This varying volume should substantially eliminate drawback into the valve. To that end, the valve includes a housing having an inlet and an outlet, and a fluid channel extending between the inlet and the outlet. The fluid channel includes a variable volume region. The valve further includes the above noted translating member, which is secured to the housing and at least partly bounds the variable volume region. The translating member has at least a portion that moves distally when the valve transitions from the closed mode to the open mode. The distal movement of the translating member enlarges the volume on the variable volume region.

Apparatus For Reducing Fluid Drawback Through A Medical Valve

US Patent:
6883778, Apr 26, 2005
Filed:
Jan 6, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/479327
Inventors:
Brian L. Newton - Woonsocket RI, US
Charles F. Ganem - Cape Neddick ME, US
Assignee:
Nypro Inc. - Clinton MA
International Classification:
A61M005/00
US Classification:
2511491, 604256, 604905
Abstract:
A medical valve for valving fluid includes a housing defining a chamber having an inlet, an outlet, and an interior wall, a compressible member within the chamber, and a fluid channel defined by the interior wall. The fluid channel directs fluid received from the inlet toward the outlet.

US Patent:
7014169, Mar 21, 2006
Filed:

US Patent:
7753892, Jul 13, 2010
Filed:
Feb 15, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/058381
Inventors:
Brian L. Newton - Woonsocket RI, US
Charles F. Ganem - Cape Neddick ME, US
Assignee:
Nypro Inc. - Clinton MA
International Classification:
A61M 5/315
A61M 5/00
A61M 25/00
E03B 1/00
F17D 1/00
F17D 3/00
F16L 37/32
US Classification:
604236, 604246, 604523, 13761404, 137 1
Abstract:
A medical valve has an interior flow path having a volume that is substantially the same when in either the closed mode (when the valve is closed) or the open mode (when the valve is open). To those ends, the medical valve has a housing forming an interior, and a valve mechanism (within the interior) having a substantially rigid translating member with a bore. The interior of the housing has a flow path that includes at least a portion of the bore of the translating member. As noted above, the open mode volume is substantially equal to the closed mode volume.

US Patent:
7837658, Nov 23, 2010
Filed:
May 16, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/435313
Inventors:
Brian L. Newton - Woonsocket RI, US
Charles F. Ganem - Cape Neddick ME, US
Assignee:
Nypro Inc. - Clinton MA
International Classification:
A61M 5/315
US Classification:
604236, 2511496
Abstract:
A medical valve includes a housing having an interior forming an inlet and an outlet. A longitudinally movable member is secured within the interior of the housing. External to the movable member and within the interior is a fluid path. Movement of the movable member controls fluid flow between the inlet and the outlet via the fluid path. The outlet produces no greater than a negligible drawback or positive push during withdrawal of a nozzle.

US Patent:
7914502, Mar 29, 2011
Filed:
Jul 21, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/895638
Inventors:
Brian L. Newton - Woonsocket RI, US
Charles F. Ganem - Cape Neddick ME, US
David B. Woyak - Carolina RI, US
Richard T. Boisjoly - Nashua NH, US
Assignee:
Nypro Inc. - Clinton MA
International Classification:
A61M 5/00
US Classification:
604247, 604246, 604256
Abstract:
A gland member within a medical valve is configured to have a substantially consistent or enlarging internal volume as the valve transitions from a closed mode to an open mode. To that end, the valve has a housing forming an interior containing a flow path, and a stationary post member within the interior. The post member has a lumen that is a part of the flow path. The lumen has an opening to the interior of the housing. The valve further includes a gland member circumscribing the post member to produce a variable volume region formed at least in part between the gland member itself and the post member. In addition, the variable volume region is a part of the flow path, while the gland member occludes the post lumen opening when in the closed mode. The variable volume region has an open volume (i. e. , when the valve is in the open mode) that is no less than its closed volume (i. e.
