Automated Sample Preparation System For Diagnostic Testing Of Same

View page
US Patent:
20200319219, Oct 8, 2020
Filed:
Feb 17, 2017
Appl. No.:
16/077875
Inventors:
- Franklin Lakes NJ, US
Kevin Bailey - Cockeysville MD, US
Christopher John Tesluk - Baltimore MD, US
Dwight Livingston - Fallston MD, US
Steven C. Rotundo - Baltimore MD, US
Stephen Robert LaChance - Cockeysville MD, US
Michael J. Touma - Hudson NH, US
Brian James McKeen - Bow NH, US
Gerard Sevigny - Nashua NH, US
Assignee:
Becton Dickinson and Company - Franklin Lakes NJ
International Classification:
G01N 35/04
G01N 35/00
G16H 10/40
Abstract:
An automated pre-analytical processing method and an apparatus for pre-analytical processing of samples to be forwarded to an adjacent analyzer for analysis. Rack label information is read and communicated to a processor. From the rack label information, the processor determines where to route the rack. The pre-analytical system has a rack robot that conveys racks to discrete locations depending upon the routing information assigned to the rack by the processor. The pre-analytical system has an automated station that reads the labels of individual sample containers in the rack that are brought to the automated station on instructions from the processor. Depending on the type of sample container and the type of sample disposed therein, the samples are either prepared for analysis by the automated station or the sample containers are directly passed through the automated station. Prepared samples and passed through samples are passed individually to a batching rack.

Automated Diagnostic Analyzer And Method For Its Operation

US Patent:
20200319222, Oct 8, 2020
Filed:
Feb 17, 2017
Appl. No.:
16/088939
Inventors:
- Franklin Lakes NJ, US
Neil G. Terry - Baltimore MD, US
Brian Bell - Forest Hill MD, US
Steven C. Rotundo - Baltimore MD, US
Stephen Robert LaChance - Cockeysville MD, US
Alyssa Shedlosky - Reisterstown MD, US
Assignee:
Becton Dickinson and Company - Franklin Lakes NJ
International Classification:
G01N 35/10
G01N 35/02
G01N 35/00
B25J 9/02
B25J 15/00
B25J 19/00
B25J 15/08
B01L 9/06
B01L 3/00
Abstract:
An automated analyzer that receives samples prepared for analysis in an automated pre-analytical module and a method of operation of such automated analyzer. The automated analyzer includes a shuttle transfer station that receives a shuttle carrier from the automated pre-analytical system. The shuttle transfer station has a clamping assembly for the shuttle. The clamping assembly has jaws that advance engagement members into contact with a bottom portion of sample containers disposed in the shuttle. The clamping assembly secures the sample containers in the shuttle when sample is aspirated from the sample containers. The automated analyzer also has a multichannel puncture tool that is adapted to be carried by a robotic gripper mechanism. The multichannel puncture tool has multiple puncture members that each defines a channel. Each channel is in communication with a different trough in the consumable. A pipette can pass through the channel in the puncture tool.

Ladar For Military And Harsh Environment Use

View page
US Patent:
20200081102, Mar 12, 2020
Filed:
Sep 10, 2018
Appl. No.:
16/127001
Inventors:
- Gaithersburg MD, US
Karl Nicholas Murphy - Gaithersburg MD, US
Steven Charles Rotundo - Gaithersburg MD, US
International Classification:
G01S 7/481
G01S 7/48
G01S 17/89
G01S 17/58
Abstract:
The light detection and ranging (LADAR) for military and harsh environment use disclosed herein presents a solution to the shortcomings inherent in modern systems. The system manipulates emitted beams to reduce or reallocate the energy required for detection, and may selectively deactivate beams to minimize that chances of detection by wasted or unrequired beam emissions. The system may also alter the divergence and amplitude of emitted beams so as to more accurately detect higher priority objects within the environment. The system may also manipulate the frequency and waveform of emitted beams to reduce the chances of a bystander detecting the emissions.

Liquid Dispenser With Manifold Mount For Modular Independently-Actuated Pipette Channels

US Patent:
20200049727, Feb 13, 2020
Filed:
Oct 21, 2019
Appl. No.:
16/658835
Inventors:
- Franklin Lakes NJ, US
Alyssa Shedlosky - Reisterstown MD, US
Alexander Clark - Baltimore MD, US
Redeat Girma Alemu - Cockeysville MD, US
Craig Bark - Fallston MD, US
Steven Charles Rotundo - Baltimore MD, US
Michael T. Vansickler - Columbia MD, US
International Classification:
G01N 35/10
G01N 1/14
B01L 3/00
B01L 3/02
G01N 1/18
Abstract:
Automated pipetting systems and methods are disclosed for aspirating and dispensing fluids, particularly biological samples. In one aspect, a liquid dispenser includes a manifold and one or more pipette channels. The manifold includes a vacuum channel, a pressure channel, and a plurality of lanes. Each lane includes an electrical connector, a port to the pressure channel, and a port to the vacuum channel. The pipette channels can be modular. Each pipette channel includes a single dispense head and can be selectively and independently coupled to any one lane of the plurality of lanes. In some aspects, a valve in the pipette channel is in simultaneous fluid communication with a pressure port and a vacuum port of the manifold. The valve selectively diverts gas under pressure and gas under vacuum to the dispense head in response to control signals received through the electrical connector of the manifold.
