  • Patent number: 9539921
    Abstract: A head support for a pushchair comprises a support section, a seat connection section and a back support. The support section forms a U-shape and comprises an armature, comprising sides, that provides stiffness to the support section. The seat connection section is coupled to the support section and is for connecting to the pushchair. The back support is connected to the support section or connectable to the support section and configured such that, when connected to the support section, it prevents the sides of the armature from dropping relative to the back support in use.

  • Patent number: 7270252
    Abstract: A garment hanger has a body 1 with a longitudinal axis. A movable first arm 2 is slidably mounted on the body for free movement with respect to the body substantially along the longitudinal axis. A constant or decreasing force spring 4 applies a resilient force to the first arm to urge the first arm outwards of the body so that the first arm is able to move between a retracted position and an extended position relative to the body. The resilient force exerted by the garment hanger remains substantially constant or increases between a fully retracted position and a fully extended position.

  • Publication number: 20050031202
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of segmenting an image of a structure stored as a set of spatially related data points representing variations in a predetermined parameter, said method comprising the steps of selecting a seed point within the structure to be segmented, assigning to each of the data points a value of connectivity indicative of the confidence that respective areas of the data points are part of the same structure as said see point, said value of connectivity including a function of the distance of the respective point from said seed point, establishing a threshold value for said level of connectivity and selecting for display data points meeting said threshold value.
