Publication number: 20240075856Abstract: Systems and methods define a stimulation pattern for a juvenile product utilizing a mobile device that executes a mobile application that is linked to the juvenile product. The method comprises the step of recognizing, by the mobile device when executing the mobile app, the user-defined stimulation pattern for the juvenile product. The stimulation pattern can be a vibration pattern or a motion pattern, and can be detected in a number of different ways by the mobile device. The method further comprises the step of determining control signals for the actuator(s) of the juvenile product based on the user-defined stimulation pattern that is recognized by the mobile device. The method further comprises the step of, in response to receiving a command to execute the user-defined stimulation pattern, controlling the actuator(s) of the juvenile product based on the stored control signals for the user-defined stimulation pattern.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 12, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Inventors: Erica Sandbothe, Kevin Dowling, Mary J. Koes, Arjit Arora, Suraj Joseph, Mara McFadden, Richard Juchniewicz

Patent number: 10042358Abstract: A mobile application runs on a mobile computing device and allows a user thereof to interact with a wheeled juvenile product, such as a stroller. The juvenile product may have a generator for generating electricity from rotation of its wheels. Through the mobile app, the user can enter a preference for how that generated electricity is used, including how much is allocated to charge the juvenile product's battery that power electronic components of the juvenile product, versus how much is allocated to a charging station that charges external electronic devices. Additionally, the juvenile product can include a memory that stores data about trips with the juvenile product, including the date and time of the trip, the duration, and the distance. Upon a request issued from the mobile app, that data can be uploaded to the mobile app so that the user can view the trip data on the user's mobile computing device. That trip data can also be uploaded to a remote server.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 2016Date of Patent: August 7, 2018Assignee: THORLEY INDUSTRIES LLCInventors: Erica Sandbothe, Kevin Dowling, Mary J.

Publication number: 20160304004Abstract: A child restraint system is disclosed. The child restraint system can include a control circuit in communication with an accident sensor system. The child restraint system can also include an actuator. The control circuit is configured to control the actuator based on input from the accident sensor system. The actuator can actuate a safety feature of the child restraint system within a reaction time window of the accident sensor system. The actuator can include a pyrotechnic initiator. The actuator can be a leveling actuator or a tensioning actuator, for example. The actuator can be an inflatable airbag or a deployable piston, for example.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 15, 2016Publication date: October 20, 2016Inventors: Erica Sandbothe, Arjit Arora, John Walker, Jacob A.
