Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an assembly for a pump, a pump and a pumping system which includes a disposable flexible bladder and disposable conduits with the pump through which the fluid to be pumped is passed in a manner such that the pump components are never exposed to the fluid.SOLUTION: The pump is provided having the disposable bladder and the disposable conduits together with check valves that control a fluid flow through the bladder and conduits when the bladder is alternately compressed and expanded. The use of disposable conduits and bladder eliminates the need for hygienically regenerating the pump between uses. The pump can be utilized in a fluid delivery system such as tangential flow filtration.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a connector that steam sterilizes a mating point of the connector to a system, and can be disposed of after use.SOLUTION: The present invention relates to a sterile transfer device. The device is comprised of a body having a bore formed through at least a part of its interior. Preferably, it is a central bore formed through the entire length of the body. Contained within the bore is a movable plunger. The body has a first and a second end. The first end contains a face designed to be attached to the upstream component. The second end is connected to a downstream component such as a filter, pipeline, sample bag and the like. The plunger has corresponding first and second ends. The first end of the plunger, when in the closed position, is in alignment with the face of the body, and they are combined to form a steamable surface and a sterile barrier against the environment to the rest of the interior of the body, the plunger and downstream components.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a connector which steam-sterilizes a joint of the connector of a system and at the same time can dispose of it after use. SOLUTION: A sterile fluid transfer device is composed of a body which includes a bore formed through at least a portion of interior of the body. It is preferable to be a central bore formed through the entire length of the body. A movable plunger is contained in the interior of the bore. The body includes a first end and a second end. The first end contains surface designed to be attached to an upstream component. The second end is connected to a downstream component such as a filter, a pipe line, a sample bag or the like. The plunger includes first and second corresponding ends. The first end of the plunger is in alignment with the face of the body when being in closed position and they are formed in one piece. Thus, the device forms steam-treatable surface and a sterile barrier against the environment to the rest of the interior of the body, the plunger and the downstream component.

Abstract:
A disposable container, such as a deformable bag, for a fluid, having one or more inlets and one or more outlets and an impeller assembly within the container to cause mixing, dispersing, homogenizing and/or circulation of one or more ingredients contained or added to the container. The impeller assembly has a protective hood surrounding at least a portion of the moveable blades or vanes of the impeller assembly and being above at least a portion of the blades or vanes. The hood surrounds the blades or vanes and arcs over the height of the blades or vanes. The hood is shaped in a dome shape or semi-spherical shape that is around and above the impeller blades and acts as a protector for the container surface against the impeller assembly both during shipping and storage as well as when in use, particularly at lower liquid levels.
Abstract:
Un dispositivo de abrazadera para un miembro de púas que tiene una región de púas para disponer dentro de un extremo de un tubo flexible que tiene una superficie exterior. El dispositivo de sujeción incluye un miembro flexible que incluye un cuerpo que tiene una pluralidad de dedos comprimibles entre una primera posición de reposo y una segunda posición de sujeción; al menos uno de los miembros de dedo flexibles que tiene un diente que se extiende radialmente hacia adentro; teniendo el cuerpo un orificio pasante y una superficie exterior que comprende roscas; siendo el miembro flexible deslizable sobre la región dentada y la superficie exterior del tubo flexible; un miembro de compresión que tiene un cuerpo que tiene un orificio pasante y una superficie interior que incluye roscas; siendo el miembro de compresión deslizable sobre el miembro flexible; en el que, al acoplar a rosca el elemento de compresión con el elemento flexible, el elemento de compresión comprime el elemento de dedo contra el elemento de lengüeta.
