Application: Methods and systems for optical-based fluid control in a fluid delivery system (Patent ID: US20230414864A1)
The patent filed by Insulet Corp. describes systems and processes for an optical monitoring system used to monitor the dispensing of fluid from a fluid delivery device. The system includes a reservoir storing the fluid, a pump with a drive mechanism to force the fluid out, and an optical monitoring system with a light source emitting light on the drive mechanism and a sensor receiving the reflected light. The light source and sensor are positioned on the same side of the drive mechanism. The patent also details various embodiments of the fluid delivery device, such as a syringe-style pump, a lead screw within a drive tube, and the use of reflector elements to indicate distance traveled or fluid level in the reservoir.
Furthermore, the patent includes claims for an apparatus and a computer-implemented method that involve receiving optical information from the optical monitoring system, determining the position of the drive mechanism based on the received information, and calculating the fluid level in the reservoir. The method involves measuring light passing through a window in the drive tube to determine the rotation of the drive tube and sensing reflective gradients on the drive mechanism to determine its position. The characteristics of the reflected light, such as intensity, frequency, or wavelength, are also considered in the monitoring process. Overall, the patent outlines a comprehensive optical monitoring system for fluid delivery devices, offering innovative solutions for accurate monitoring and control of fluid dispensing processes.
