Abstract:
An overhead battery charger is disclosed. The overhead battery charger includes a source of electric power, for example an electrical outlet, as well as a power cord connected to the source of electric power. At least one battery connection device, such as alligator clamps, is attached to the power cord, and a controller adapted to adjust voltage, current, or both, is available at the battery connection device. In addition, a remote device, such as a smart phone, tablet, or computer, runs an app and sends signals to direct the adjustments made by the controller.
Abstract:
There is disclosed a power drop assembly which includes a housing and a reel positioned and rotatable within it. Preferably, the device determines, not only whether power is available, but how much power is available. Preferably, the power drop assembly also contains a processor and non-transitory storage medium, so that user settings and profiles as well as settings and profiles for the power drop assembly can be stored and run. Additionally, the power drop assembly preferably contains a wireless transceiver which connects to a home Wi-Fi network and then to a cloud account, user profiles and settings, and settings and profiles for the power drop assembly can be saved on the cloud account. In this way multiple users can use the power drop assembly without contradicting instructions or resetting the power drop assembly every time it is used.
Abstract:
The invention is a method for intelligent current limiting enabling chaining of electrical appliances. Different embodiments apply to alternating current (AC) appliances, direct current (DC) appliances, and a combination of each. In each embodiment, current limits control the number of appliances that can be connected in the chain. If current limits are exceeded, current-limiting devices cut power to one or more of the appliances. Each appliance in the system has conductors with the capacity to carry a current load at least as large as the overall current limit. Preferably, the appliances in the system are garage appliances that are mounted to an overhead track system in a garage, where electrical outlets are scarce.
Abstract:
A process for combining domain restriction and remote authentication may include receiving a token from a plug-in application to conduct a transaction associated with a user of a communicating device. The process may include sending an authentication request to a remote access control sever to authenticate the user, and receiving, from the remote access control server, an authentication tracking value that the remote access control server used in generation of an authentication cryptogram. The process may also include generating, using the authentication tracking value, a domain restriction cryptogram that is used for domain restriction of the token, and sending, to the plug-in application, the domain restriction cryptogram.
Abstract:
A driver for driving a spindle of a drug delivery device is provided. Said driver comprises a first component and a second component rotationally coupled to said first component. During resetting of said drug delivery device, said first component is rotationally decoupled from said second component.
Abstract:
A medicament delivery device comprises a housing, a telescopic piston rod assembly for driving a bung of a medicament container, and a drive mechanism for the telescopic piston rod assembly. The telescopic piston rod assembly comprises a plunger for driving a bung, a key for allowing predominantly axial movement between the plunger and the housing and an input drive telescopically coupled to the plunger and supported for rotational and axial movement relative the housing. The drive mechanism additionally comprises a transfer drive that operates to rotate the input drive. As the input drive rotates, it moves axially relative to the housing, expanding telescopically relative to the plunger.
Abstract:
A computerized electro-mechanical drug delivery device configured to deliver at least one dose of two or more medicaments. The device comprises a control unit. An electro-mechanical drive unit is operably coupled to the control unit and a primary reservoir for a first medicament and a secondary reservoir for a fluid agent, e.g. a second medicament. An operator interface is in communication with the control unit. A single dispense assembly is configured for fluid communication with the primary and the secondary reservoir. Activation of the operator panel sets a first dose from the primary reservoir and based on the first dose and a therapeutic dose profile, the control unit is configured to determine a dose or range of the fluid agent. Alternatively, the control unit determines or calculates a dose or range of a third medicament. Further, a dispense interface for use with a drug delivery device is disclosed.
Abstract:
A magnetometer includes a sensor housing having an internal bore formed therethrough and a magnetic field sensor disposed within the internal bore of the sensor housing. The magnetic field sensor is fixedly mounted within the internal bore of the sensor housing. A magnetic flux concentrating block is disposed proximate to an end of the at least one magnetic field sensor. An electronics unit is disposed within the internal bore of the sensor housing and is operatively and communicatively connected to the magnetic field sensor. The electronics unit is configured to receive a signal from the magnetic field sensor.
Abstract:
A first input member and a second input member are arranged along a first axis and coupled in such a manner that a movement of the first input member along the first axis is converted into a rotational movement of the second input member with respect to the body . A first output member and a second output member are arranged along a second axis and coupled in such a manner that a rotational movement of the first output member is converted into a movement of the second output member along the second axis with respect to the body. The second input member and the first output member are releasably rotationally coupled.
