  • Patent number: 11989394
    Abstract: Devices, methods and graphical user interfaces for manipulating user interfaces based on fingerprint sensor inputs are provided. While a display of an electronic device with a fingerprint sensor displays a first user interface, the device may detect movement of a fingerprint on the fingerprint sensor. In accordance with a determination that the movement of the fingerprint is in a first direction, the device allows navigating through the first user interface, and in accordance with a determination that the movement of the fingerprint is in a second direction different from the first direction, the device allows displaying a second user interface different from the first user interface on the display.

  • Patent number: 5052184
    Abstract: A screened grid (1) is sized and shaped to fit inside of a cooler chest (4). Doors (9) in the screened grid (1) are provided for accessing sealed beverage containers (2) storable under the screen grid (1) in ice water, which cool the sealed containers (2) under the grid (1) and also cool and keep dry or unsealed food items positionable above the screen grid (1). Cubed ice is poured or packed around and on top of the food items, such as wrapped sandwiches. This allows everything to stay cool but not wet because the ice water drops below the grid and cools the sealed beverages and/or sealed food containers stored below the grid. The grid (1) can be constructed of materials which can be pre-cooled to aid cooling effect with a cooler chest (4).
