    Abstract: The present invention includes a system and device for aiding in the diagnosis of a physiological abnormality resulting in detectable, measurable variations in contents of breathed air. The system includes a handheld unit defining an airway, wherein the airway includes a plurality of sensors adapted to measure a plurality of parameters related to the presence of a physiological abnormality. The system further includes a control unit remotely connected to the handheld unit. The control unit includes a controller adapted to receive input signals from the handheld unit and remit output signals in response thereto. The output signals are usable by a user in determining the presence or absence of a physiological abnormality. The control unit further also can include a display adapted to display the output signals to a user thereby easing the determination of the physiological abnormality. The system further includes a mouthpiece selectively connectable to the handheld unit. The mouthpiece can include a filter adapted to substantially prohibit the passage of germs into the airway of the handheld unit.

    Abstract: A rotatable door latch for a door hingedly attached the housing of a device, which in some embodiments may be a medical device for handling fluids, such as a peritoneal dialysis cycler with pump cassette. In an embodiment, the door is configured to close over an installed cassette against a front panel of the housing, the door latch configured to capture the head of a post mounted to the housing. After capturing the head of the post and rotating the door latch, a slot in the latch flanked by a ramp or cam feature slides against the post head, the ramp increasing in thickness to progressively increase the closing force between the door and the post head. Upon full closure of the door latch, a detent at the end of the slot provides a maintenance closing force between the door and the post head. The thickness of at least a portion of the detent is less than the terminal thickness of the ramp, so that a release force needed to move the detent off the post head is greater than the maintenance force between the detent and the post head.

    Abstract translation: 用于门的可旋转门闩铰接地附接到装置的壳体,其在一些实施例中可以是用于处理流体的医疗装置,例如具有泵盒的腹膜透析循环仪。 在一个实施例中,门构造成将所安装的盒子靠在壳体的前面板上,该门闩锁构造成捕获安装到壳体上的柱的头部。 在捕获柱的头部并旋转门闩之后,侧面有斜面或凸轮特征的闩锁中的槽滑动抵靠柱头,斜面增加厚度以逐渐增加门和柱头之间的关闭力。 在门闩完全关闭时,槽的端部处的棘爪提供门和柱头之间的维护关闭力。 制动器的至少一部分的厚度小于斜坡的端部厚度,使得将止动件移出柱头所需的释放力大于制动器和柱头之间的维持力。
