Patent number: 11992432Abstract: A thermal control unit for delivering temperature-controlled fluid to one or more patient therapy devices (e.g. pads, blankets, etc.) that are in contact with a patient is disclosed. The thermal control unit allows multiple patient therapy devices to be fluidly coupled thereto and to individually monitor the temperatures, flow rates, and/or connections/disconnections of the patient therapy devices. A user interface enables a user to designate outlet ports to the therapy devices as active or inactive, and the control unit provides notifications to the user if any of the active ports experience an undesired condition, or if a patient therapy device is connected to an inactive port. The user interface further allows the user to designate one of multiple patient temperature probes as a primary probe. The primary probe is used to control the temperature of the fluid circulating through the control unit.Type: GrantFiled: May 4, 2020Date of Patent: May 28, 2024Assignee: Stryker CorporationInventors: Christopher John Hopper, Brian Schultz, Roy E.

Patent number: 11995201Abstract: An audio device, such as a headphone, can create, maintain and use secure data. The secure data can include an amount of time that the user has used the audio device and/or an amount of time allocated to the user. When the amount of time the user has used the audio device exceeds the amount of time allocated to the user, the audio device can stop emitting the audio. The secure data can also include a hearing profile of the user, which can uniquely identify the user. The secure data associated with the headphone can be encrypted to prevent tampering.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 2021Date of Patent: May 28, 2024Assignee: Nura Holdings Pty LtdInventors: Luke John Campbell, Dragan Petrovic, David James Lawson

Patent number: 11910145Abstract: Introduced here is a wearable audio system including modular ear-cup and ear-bud that can be attached and detached to the user together, or independently of each other. Further, the modular ear-cup and ear-bud can operate together, or independently of each other. The wearable audio system can perform active noise cancellation by measuring noise inside the ear-cup and/or the ear-bud, computing the noise canceling sound, and forwarding the noise canceling sound to a speaker inside the ear-cup and/or the ear-bud. The wearable audio system can be wirelessly charged while operating, thus allowing the user to continuously listen to music more than previously possible. The wearable audio system can optimize power consumption by redistributing power intensive tasks to power sources with the highest amount of power. Further, the ambient sound outside the ear-cup can be measured and played by the speakers in the earbud allowing the user to hear the surrounding environment.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2021Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: NURA HOLDINGS PTY LTDInventors: Luke John Campbell, Dragan Petrovic
