Abstract: A seat belt system for a vehicle comprises a first seat belt buckle mounted at a first location, a second seat belt buckle mounted at a second location and a seat belt retractor mounted at a third location, a seat belt and a circuit. The third location is spaced along a seat for an occupant from the second location. The seat belt is extendable from the seat belt retractor and has a tongue. The seat belt is extendable to connect the tongue to the first seat belt buckle or the second seat belt buckle. The circuit interconnects the first seat belt buckle, the second seat belt buckle and the seat belt retractor. The circuit is configured to change an operating mode of the seat belt retractor when (1) the seat belt tongue is removed from the first seat belt buckle and/or (2) the seat belt tongue is removed from the second seat belt buckle. An optional indicator can be provided to indicate to the vehicle operator that the operating mode of the retractor has been changed.

Abstract: Some embodiments include a flow regulator with a main body dimensioned to be received within a flow passageway that includes an inlet and an outer surface, and an inner volume positioned within the main body and extending from the inlet along at least a partial length of the main body. Some embodiments includes two separate spiral structures positioned spiraled around the main body where one spiral extends further from the outer surface than the other. Some embodiments include a fluid flow space extending between the spirals. Based on a fluid pressure, the spirals can expand and contract to control the fluid flow space and affect downstream, fluid flow rate as a function of upstream fluid pressure.

Abstract: A touchless activation system comprising an infrared detector configured to detect an object within a target range, wherein an initial reading is measured by the infrared detector. A second sensor operatively connected to the infrared detector, wherein the second sensor is turned on when the initial reading is measured. The infrared detector measures whether the object is within the target range by comparing the initial reading with an object initiated reflection and determining if a predetermined threshold is exceeded, wherein the second sensor is configured to receive a system activation request. An activator mechanism configured to process the system request and cause the touchless activation system to execute an action associated with the system request. The system is configured to flush a toilet or other plumbing fixture, wherein the system request causes the activator mechanism to flush a toilet.
