Abstract: A system for localizing and object is disclosed herein. The system includes a radio transmitter disposed in a first location, a radio receiver disposed in a second location, a processor operatively coupled to the radio transmitter and to the radio receiver, and a memory operatively coupled to the processor. The memory includes instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to send a first command to the radio transmitter to transmit a continuous radio wave, send a second command to the radio receiver to receive a reflected radio wave, receive from the radio receiver a signal indicating the reflected radio wave is within a spatial region of interest, and determining a three-dimensional location of the object within the spatial region of interest based on the reflected radio wave.

Abstract: A beverage maker comprises a heating cavity, a water input configured to be connected to an external water supply and to channel water from the external water supply towards the heating cavity, a water output configured to channel water away from the heating cavity and a means for heating water. The means for heating water is disposed external to the heating cavity and is configured to heat water within the heating cavity. The heating cavity is configured to receive a removable water container so as to form a fluid flowpath from the water input to the removable water container, and from the removable water container to the water output.

Abstract: An inflatable compression brace with hot and cold compresses has a brace body, an air bag, and an inflate-and-deflate valve. The brace body wraps around joints and muscles. The air bag is formed within the brace body. The inflate-and-deflate valve is mounted on the brace body and connected to the air bag. The inflate-and-deflate valve can optionally inflate or deflate the air bag. Thereby the inflated air bag can compress and immobilize the targeted area. Additionally, when inappropriate pressure is applied to the target area, the inflate-and-deflate valve is capable of adjusting the air pressure.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for the compensation of distortions on a substrate surface of a substrate, a method for bonding two substrates and a product.

Abstract: A beverage maker for a vehicle galley compartment, the beverage maker comprising: a housing comprising a dispensing region configured to receive a beverage container in a beverage receiving position; a latching mechanism configured to move relative to the housing between a first position and a second position; wherein, when in the first position the latching mechanism is configured to retain the beverage container in the beverage receiving position, and when in the second position the latching mechanism is configured to allow the beverage container to be placed in or removed from the beverage receiving position; and an electrical actuator configured to control movement of the latching mechanism relative to the housing from the second position to the first position.

Abstract: A frothing module for a hot beverage maker including: a reservoir with a bottom portion for storing a liquid and a frother. The frother has a suction tube arranged within the reservoir, extending from a top portion into the bottom portion of the reservoir to draw liquid from the bottom portion. The frother also has a steam inlet to connect to and receive steam from the hot beverage maker, an aerator to receive liquid from the suction tube and steam from the steam inlet to make a froth; and an outlet to discharge the froth. The reservoir includes at least one aperture to receive steam for cleaning external surfaces of the suction tube.

Abstract: A tray table for a passenger seat has a main body defining a table surface, and a first member configured to slide relative to the main body between a first position and a second, extended position, wherein in the second, extended position the first member is configured to define a first rest for supporting a first portion of an electronic device, and a second member configured to move relative to the main body between a first, stowed position and a second, extended position, wherein in the second position the second member protrudes upwardly from the table surface of the main body to define a second rest for supporting a second portion of an electronic device, and wherein the first member and the second member, when in their respective second, extended positions, thus cooperate to support and position an electronic device.

Abstract: A system and method relating to a liquid cooled cable arrangement includes a charging connector and a liquid cooled charging cable, wherein the liquid cooled charging cable comprises a plurality of conductors for supplying charging current and at least two fluid channels for supply and return liquid coolant, the charging connector comprises a plurality of bus bars and a plurality of contacts, and the charging connector comprises a second part made from a thermally conductive and electrically insulating material to which the bus bars are attached and to which the fluid channels are thermally connected such that heat generated in the contacts during charging can be removed by the liquid coolant, and/or the bus bars may include bus bar fluid channels to which the fluid channels are thermally connected such that heat generated in the contacts during charging can be removed by the liquid coolant.
