20130196733 | Systems and Methods for Integrated Game Play Through the Use of Proximity-Based Communication on Smart Phones and Hand Held Devices - A user device in a system for selling gaming products receives a game play request from a user. The user device detects being tapped to an external proximity-based communication enabled device using a communication interface that communicates over a proximity-based communication connection. Upon detecting that the user device has been tapped to the external proximity-based communication enabled device, the user device sends a gaming request associated with the game play request over a wireless network. The proximity-based communication protocols ensure that the gaming transaction occurs in a geographical location that is within the jurisdiction of the appropriate gaming authority. | 08-01-2013 |
20140066194 | Systems and Methods for Integrated Game Play Through the Use of Barcodes on Smart Phones and Hand Held Devices - A user device in a system for selling gaming products receives a game play request from a user. Barcode information associated with a barcode at a location is obtained. The user device sends a gaming request associated with the game play request over a wireless network. The barcode information provides for verification that the gaming transaction occurs in a geographical location that is within the jurisdiction of the appropriate gaming authority. | 03-06-2014 |
20140274314 | Systems and Methods for Integrated Game Play at Payment-Enabled Terminals - A game play system and methods for facilitating game play purchases through a payment-enabled terminal store a plurality of records of game play number sets associated with respective payment card numbers. The association of game play number sets with respective payment card numbers allows for substantially “ticketless” lottery wagers, draws, scratch tickets, branded games, and second change games, access to game play purchases beyond the traditional manned lottery authority terminals, automatic redemption by associating a winning game play with a payment card number, and purchase of game plays using payment cards (e.g., debit or credit cards) instead of cash. | 09-18-2014 |

20080243062 | INFUSION SET KIT - An infusion set kit includes an infusion set and a cannula insertion device. The infusion set has an infuser base configured for adhesive attachment to an infusion site on a user's skin, a cannula cartridge configured for operative engagement with the infuser base, and a hub configured for user-controlled 360 degree (360°) rotary engagement with the infuser base. | 10-02-2008 |
20080243083 | INFUSION SET WITH USER-CONTROLLED 360-DEGREE ROTARY MOTION HUB - An infusion set includes an infuser base, a cannula cartridge and a hub. The infuser base includes an adhesive pad configured for removably adhering the infuser base to an infusion site, a barb, and an infuser base opening. The cannula cartridge includes a cannula for subcutaneous insertion into the infusion site and a cannula cartridge self-sealing septum. The hub is configured for removable and user-controlled three hundred and sixty degree (360°) rotateable engagement with the barb. The hub includes a hub needle for piercing the self-sealing septum, thereby creating a fluid pathway from the hub needle to the cannula of the cannula cartridge. The hub also includes a flexible tube in fluid communication with the hub needle. The cannula cartridge of is configured for insertion into the infuser base opening with the cannula being subcutaneously inserted into the infusion site. | 10-02-2008 |
20080249505 | METHOD FOR MOUNTING AN INFUSION SET WITH USER-CONTROLLED 360-DEGREE ROTARY MOTION HUB TO AN INFUSION SITE - A method for mounting an infusion set to an infusion site includes adhering an infuser base of the insertion set to an infusion site on a user's skin and inserting a cannula cartridge of the infusion set into an opening of the infuser base such that a cannula of the cannula cartridge is subcutaneously inserted into the infusion site. Subsequently, the method includes removeably attaching a hub of the infusion set to a barb of the infuser base such that a hub needle of the hub pierces a self-sealing septum of the cannula cartridge, thereby creating a fluid pathway from the hub needle to the cannula. In the method, the attachment of the hub to the barb is such that user-controlled three-hundred and sixty (360°) rotatable motion between the hub and the barb is provided. | 10-09-2008 |
20120022568 | Instrument for Use in Bone and Method of Use - Instrument for creating voids and channels in bone; and for obtaining samples of bone tissue. The instruments are suitable for reducing fractures in bone and for compacting the bone to create a barrier for leakage upon material injection. The instruments may also be used for bone biopsy and for obtaining samples of bone tissue. Methods for using these instruments are also disclosed. | 01-26-2012 |
20130204229 | PALM ACTIVATED DRUG DELIVERY DEVICE - A device configured to administer a medication can comprise a lower housing that includes a housing latch. The device can further comprise a needle guard that is movable relative to the lower housing along a first direction from a first position to a second position so as to expose a needle, and an upper housing supported relative to the lower housing. The upper housing can be configured to move with respect to the lower housing along a second direction from a pre-use position to a dispensed position. The housing latch can releasably interfere with the upper housing when the upper housing is in the pre-use position so as to prevent the upper housing from moving toward the dispensed position, and the movement of the needle guard toward the second position, causes the interference to be removed, thereby allowing the upper housing to move toward the second position. | 08-08-2013 |
