Publication number: 20200074840Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to methods, devices, and systems to monitor activity. One method to monitor activity includes monitoring activity of an individual including detecting a sensor activated by an individual during the individual's daily activities. The embodiment also includes comparing the sensor activation to a predetermined sensor activation timeframe, determining whether to initiate an alert based upon the comparison, and checking for at least one other sensor activation to confirm whether an alert should be initiated.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 8, 2019Publication date: March 5, 2020Applicant: GreatCall, Inc.Inventors: Brian J. Bischoff, Alan P. Shilepsky, Lina Long

Patent number: 10378558Abstract: A device for dispensing an air treatment chemical includes a housing having an inlet for permitting air to enter into an interior space of the housing and an outlet for permitting air mixed with air treatment chemical to exit the interior space of the housing. A substrate positioned within the housing bears the air treatment chemical. A power supply mounted within the housing powers a motor mounted within the housing. The motor is connected to an impeller mounted within the housing. The impeller moves air from the inlet adjacent the substrate to mix the air treatment chemical into the moving air and deliver the mixture of air and air treatment chemical through the outlet to outside of the housing. The housing includes a transitional body defining a convergent-divergent channel for compressing the mixture at the converging section and expanding the mixture at the diverging section.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2013Date of Patent: August 13, 2019Assignee: S.C. Johnson & Son, Inc.Inventors: Nitin Sharma, Deliang Shi, Gerald W. Cummings, Lina Long, Paul E. Furner

Publication number: 20130323292Abstract: Disclosed are pyrethrin-based insect control formulations which have been formulated to reduce wick clogging in dispensers which use heaters to drive an insect control active from the wick. Pyrethrum extract is mixed with an acetylenic compound, such as prallethrin or 3,5-dimethylhex-1-yn-3-ol, and a terminal diene compound such as myrcene or 1,3 hexadiene. Wick clogging side effects from using the pyrethrum are thereby suppressed.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 1, 2012Publication date: December 5, 2013Inventors: Lina Long, Brian W. Anderson, Gerald W.
