Patent number: 11399601Abstract: A wristband locking mechanism for a wearable electronic device, a wristband, a wearable electronic device and a method of securing an article to a person. The wristband locking mechanism includes a clasp assembly with independently-operable spring-biased actuators such that the wristband locking mechanism cannot be unlocked using one hand. The use of sensors, processors, communication equipment and associated components within the wearable electronic device allows a caregiver to monitor one or more of location, environmental, physiological and activity data of a wearer of the device, while the requirement for two-handed operation for unlocking of the wristband locking mechanism provides a deterrent against intentional or unintentional removal of the attached article or wearable electronic device by the wearer.Type: GrantFiled: July 13, 2020Date of Patent: August 2, 2022Assignee: CareBand, Inc.Inventors: Adam G. Sobol, Jason R. Gebhardt, Joseph T. Kreidler, Brian A. Donlin, Jon G. Ledwith, Patrick J. McVey, Ross D. Moore, Peter Nanni, Dwayne D. Forsyth, Paul Sheldon, Todd Sobol, John D. Reed

Patent number: 9975673Abstract: A cap-locking assembly includes an inner cap having a ribbed outer surface and a locking cap. The locking cap includes opposing first and second engagement mechanisms, opposing first and second stabilizing ridges, and a plurality of ramped tabs, all of which are disposed on the interior surface of the locking cap. When the ramped tabs engage a lower edge of the inner cap they retain the inner cap inside the locking cap. Further, the opposing first and second stabilizing ridges coaxially align the inner cap and the locking cap. Finally, the opposing first and second engagement mechanisms engage with the ribbed outer surface of the inner cap upon application of an inward force to the locking cap.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2014Date of Patent: May 22, 2018Assignee: S.C. JOHNSON & SON, INC.Inventors: Rodney L. Prater, Joel E. Adair, Dirk K. Nickel, Jason R. Gebhardt

Patent number: 9498100Abstract: An apparatus to retain an article includes a housing, a first jaw, a second opposed jaw, a pivoting ratchet arm, and a lever. The housing is adapted to receive a handle. The first jaw is adapted to pivot with respect to the housing. The pivoting ratchet arm is dimensioned to engage ratchet teeth of the first jaw when in an actuated position. The lever is connected to the ratchet arm and actuating the lever causes the ratchet arm to move into the actuated position to incrementally pivot the first jaw toward the second jaw.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 2014Date of Patent: November 22, 2016Assignee: S.C. Johnson & Son, Inc.Inventors: Simon M. Conway, Linda J. Babinski, Kate Schreiber, Robert T. Wosewick, Stephen M. Oshgan, Jason R. Gebhardt

Patent number: 9104373Abstract: A computer tablet storage system. The system may have one or many main docks and one or many tablet holders. A computer tablet is retained within each tablet holder, and the tablet holder is insertable into and removable from an associated main dock. While inside the main dock, the computer tablet is protected against damage and unauthorized use. The main dock includes a door aperture and a tablet tray assembly movable toward and away from the bay door aperture and within the dock housing. The tablet holder (with tablet therein) is releasably engageable with the tray assembly. In the system, the tablet tray assembly is movable between a forward position in which a tablet is extended through the bay door for use, and a tray back position in which the tablet is retracted completely within the dock housing interior. A master control may regulate operation of the system.Type: GrantFiled: October 16, 2013Date of Patent: August 11, 2015Assignee: NOVA SOLUTIONS, INC.Inventors: John Lechman, Stephen M Oshgan, Paresh Shroff, Jason R Gebhardt, Patrick J McVey, Cornelio M Varilla
