  • Kinetic Seat Cushions for Vehicles
    Publication number: 20240131970
    Abstract: A kinetic seat cushion assembly that rotates based on a force applied on an occupant seated therein is provided. The kinetic seat cushion assembly includes a primary seat cushion frame, a secondary seat cushion frame, a seat cushion tilt mechanism coupling the secondary seat cushion frame to the primary seat cushion frame such that the secondary seat cushion frame is movable with respect to the primary seat cushion frame, and a front pivot mechanism that pivotally couples a front portion of the primary seat cushion frame to a front portion of the secondary seat cushion frame.

  • Branch circuit monitor power measurement
    Patent number: 9335352
    Abstract: In a digital branch circuit monitor, compensation for the phase error is accomplished by selecting a voltage sampled at a time temporally offset from the sampling time of the current by an interval quantifying the phase shift of the secondary current relative to the primary current that is characteristic of a current transformer.
