A construction apparatus for forming modular construction components is disclosed. The construction apparatus comprises a first shell piece and a second shell piece that define an interior chamber defining a space for receiving a moldable material. The construction apparatus further comprises a separation device to move the first shell piece and the second shell piece from a closed configuration to an open configuration. The construction apparatus further comprises one or more cores within the interior chamber, one or more pins extending within the interior chamber, and one or more retaining plates for retaining the pins on the first shell piece. The interior chamber may be filled with the moldable material in the closed configuration and the moldable material may be cured. The construction apparatus may be shifted to the open configuration by the separation device and the pins and retaining plates may be used to extract the molded block from the first shell piece and/or second shell piece.

Construction apparatuses and methods of use thereof

A medical container loading system includes a medical container loading device and a fill station. The fill station is located proximate to the medical container loading device and includes a mounting plate and a holding assembly. The holding assembly is connected to the mounting plate for supporting a medical fluid container adapted for fluid communication with a medical container, such as a syringe, used in the medical container loading device. The holding assembly may include a fixed support and a movable support, which maintain the medical fluid container in the holding assembly. The fixed support may be funnel-shaped with a smooth or stepped inner wall. The fixed support may also be rectangular shaped and have an inclined inner wall or support for supporting the body of the medical fluid container. The movable support may be a resiliently biased support arm or an adjustable strap.

Medical container loading system and method for use with fluid containers, syringes and medical injectors

A syringe interface for attaching syringes to a drive mechanism which includes a drive member to impart motion to a syringe plunger includes a plurality of syringe mount apertures having different dimensions to attach each of a plurality of syringes to the syringe interface. Each of the syringes for attachment to the syringe interface includes at least one mounting flange, and each of the plurality of syringes has a different mounting flange dimension. Each of the plurality of syringe mount apertures is in general alignment with an axis of the drive member. A syringe drive mechanism includes a syringe interface as described above. The syringe drive mechanism can further include a sensing system to sense which size of the plurality of syringes is mounted on the syringe interface. The syringe drive mechanism can also include a processor and a memory which are in operative communication with the drive member. The memory includes a control program stored therein. The processor is in communication with the sensing system so that the control program controls the drive member according to the syringe sensed to be attached to the syringe interface. A powered injector includes a drive member and a drive to deliver power to the drive member. A processor of the powered injector is in communication with the drive and with a memory in which at least one control program is stored. The control program includes instructions for control of the drive. The powered injector further includes a syringe interface as described above for attaching syringes to the powered injector so that the drive member can impart motion to a plunger slidably positioned within each of the syringes. The powered injector further includes a sensing system to detect which of the syringes is attached to the syringe interface. The sensing system is in communication with the processor so that the control program controls the drive in a manner determined by the syringe detected to be attached to the syringe interface.
