Abstract: A vegetation wall system includes an irrigation tank, a vegetation mounting unit with a vegetation holding unit, a pump feeding water from the tank to the holding unit, a programmable logic control unit including a central processing unit and a sensor, wherein the central processing unit monitors an aspect in the wall system by measuring, by the sensor, a component of the aspect as a first component measurement, waiting a predetermined period of time and then measuring, by the sensor, the component of the aspect as a second component measurement, determining, by the central processing unit, a change in the aspect based on the first and second measurements and the predetermined period of time, determining whether the change is outside a threshold range, in response to determining that the change is outside the threshold range, determining that an anomalous condition exists, and generating an alert when the anomalous condition exists.

Abstract: A hair trimmer is provided, including a trimmer housing having a drive end, a drive shaft projecting from the drive end, a support bracket associated with the drive end, and a cutting workhead connectable to the drive shaft and being supported on the trimmer by the support bracket. The cutting workhead is removable from operational engagement with the trimmer housing without the use of tools.

Abstract: A lighting fixture includes a housing with a first end and a second end. The lighting fixture further includes a first plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs) configured to illuminate a main lens of the housing between the first end and the second end. The lighting fixture further includes an end cap disposed at the first end. The end cap includes an end cap lens and a second plurality of LEDs configured to illuminate the end cap lens independently from the first plurality of LEDs. The end cap further includes a wall configured to substantially prevent light emitted from the second plurality of LEDs from being emitted through the main lens of the housing.

Abstract: A method of monitoring at least one aspect in a vegetation wall system and an apparatus for doing the same. The method comprising measuring, by a sensor, a first component and a second component in the vegetation wall system; determining, by a processor, a change in the at least one aspect based on: the first component, the second component, and an amount of time between the measurement of the first component and the second component; determining whether the change in at least one aspect is outside a threshold range; and in response to determining the change in the at least one aspect is outside the threshold range, determining an anomalous condition exists.

Abstract: A dental floss insertion device for inserting an end of a length of dental floss into an enclosed oral space. The device may include a body and a tip attached to the body and cooperating with the body to define a floss guide path. A first roller may be positioned on a first side of the guide path and a second roller may be positioned on a second side of the guide path. The second roller may be moveable toward and away from the first roller to open and close a nip that receives the length of floss, thereby allowing a user to apply a compressive force on a piece of floss located between the first and second rollers while simultaneously rolling the second roller to advance the end of the length of floss along the guide path, through the distal orifice, and into an enclosed oral space. The body may include a removable carriage member that defines the floss guide path and supports the first and second rollers.

Abstract: An adjustable, dual speaker element earphone. One of the speaker elements is sized to fit into the cavum concha of the listeners ear and the other element is not. A hinged joint may allow the larger speaker element may be rotated about a vertical axis of the hinged joint so that the larger speaker element can be rotated towards or away from the listener's ear. The speaker elements may be connected such that sounds produced by both speaker elements emanate from different respective sound openings defined in a surface of the smaller speaker element. Also, one or both of the speaker elements may be operably connected to a hanger bar that is sized and configured to rest on an upper portion of the listener's ear.

Abstract: A foldable headphone set in which the earphones of the headphone set may rotate between a folded (or closed) position and an unfolded (or open) position due to a torsion- or spring-loaded hinge associated with each earphone. The headphone set may be held in the folded position by way of a magnetic latch. Also, the user may adjust the amount of rotation by the respective hinges so that the earphones rotate to the user-defined limit position. The user could set the user-defined limit position to a comfortable position for the user. That way, the earphones will unfold to the user-defined limit position every time (until the user-defined limit is readjusted). In addition, a friction grommet in the hinge may provide for a slow, controlled, smooth opening of the hinge. In at least one embodiment, a hinge is provided for use in a variety of applications.
