Abstract: An adjustable stand for an electronic device that is operable for stable movement in two directions with the use of a single hand of a user. An ergonomic design leverages a natural and intuitive movement of a user's hand to maintain an orientation of the electronic device throughout at least 180 degrees of movement.

Abstract: A tower opening apparatus is provided that is configured to simplify the opening of a multi-piece, hinged, hydroponic tower. The hydroponic tower opening apparatus utilizes a collection of static and continuously moving components (e.g., motor driven drive rollers, alignment rollers, stationary wedges, longitudinal ramps, etc.) to open a hydroponic tower as it passes through the apparatus. In particular, as the tower is driven through the opening apparatus, the fastener(s) holding the face plate(s) to the tower body is released by a wedge(s). After the fastener(s) is released, the face plate(s) is partially rotated about the tower body, thereby partially opening the tower cavity(s). Next a longitudinal ramp(s) continues to rotate the face plate(s) relative to the tower body, moving the face plate(s) to a fully open position.

Abstract: A docking station for a medical device is described. In some examples, the docking station includes a frame and a base plate coupled to the frame. At least a portion of the base plate is coupled to a lower portion of the frame. In some examples, an electronic connector of the docking station is configured to couple to the medical device and to provide power to the medical device when the medical device is docked to the docking station. In some examples, a docking mechanism is coupled to an upper portion of the frame and configured to retain the medical device.

Abstract: A dental floss dispenser. The dispenser includes a dispenser housing enclosing an interior portion and a dispensing portion. The dispensing portion is slidably positioned inside the interior portion of the dispenser housing. The dispensing portion has a stored position and a dispensing position. In the stored position, the dispensing portion is entirely disposed in the interior portion. In the dispensing position, the dispensing portion is partially disposed outside of the interior portion. The dispensing portion further includes a storage chamber for storing a wound string of dental floss and a floss dispensing cavity for holding at least a portion of the wound string of dental floss extracted from the storage chamber.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for attaching and positioning a personal computing device case to a folio. The folio includes magnetic connections, and the personal computing device case includes magnetic connections for attaching the case to the folio in any one of a plurality of positions. The magnetic connections of the folio include an upper magnet array and a lower magnet array for attachment of the magnetic case. The folio includes a hinge mechanism at a top edge of each of two sides of the folio. The case is attached to the folio using guided magnetic seating, and the case is repositionable by slidingly or rotationally changing the position of the case relative to the folio.

Abstract: An implantable therapy lead is disclosed herein. The lead includes an elongated lead body having a suture sleeve. The suture sleeve is supported on the lead body and has each of an outer surface and an inner surface radially inward of the outer surface. The inner surface defines a lumen through which the elongated lead body extends. The suture sleeve further includes a structure projecting radially inward and/or outward from the inner surface. The suture sleeve is compressible from a first state into a second state by applying a constrictive force to the outer surface of the suture sleeve such that, when in the second state, the structure contacts the elongated lead body, at least in part, to resist movement of the elongated lead body relative to the suture sleeve.

Abstract: A monolithic controlled release device (MCRD) for use with an implantable medical device includes a distal face, a proximal face opposite the distal face, and an outer circumferential surface extending between the distal face and the proximal face. A spline-shaped inner lumen extends between the distal face and the proximal face and radially inward from the outer circumferential surface. The MCRD is formed from a mixture including an active pharmaceutical ingredient.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an implantable medical device for implantation against cardiac tissue in the administration of electrotherapy to the cardiac tissue. The device includes a distal end and a monolithic controlled release device. The distal end includes a housing structure and a cavity within the housing structure. The cavity opens exterior the implantable medical device via a distal opening. The monolithic controlled release device is within the cavity and proximal the distal opening. The monolithic controlled release device includes a distal face, a proximal face opposite the distal face, an outer circumferential surface extending between the distal face and the proximal face, and a spline-shaped inner lumen extending between the distal face and the proximal face and radially inward from the outer circumferential surface. The monolithic controlled release device further includes an active pharmaceutical ingredient.
