Abstract: There is described a color-changing LED bulb in the LED bulb technical field. The bulb has light-emitting components, under which electrified components are mounted. The outer surface of the light-emitting component is covered by a lampshade. The light-emitting component includes a component loading board with a protective cover on the outer side. The power cord stretches out of the bottom of the loading board and is connected to electrified components. Capacitors are also mounted at the bottom of the loading board. This color changing LED bulb controls the power supply to the beads via a chip bridge rectifier, chip resistor, and IC chip. If the switch is flipped, the chip bridge rectifier detects if power is supplied. By connecting the 3 different IC chips—U1, U2 & U3, U1 chip controls the U2 & U3 IC chip to electrify the beads of different colors. Each time that the switch is operated (flipped), a different color is displayed.
Abstract: A voice-activated light system that includes a microphone for receiving one or more voice commands (which may be referred to as a “voice microphone”), one or more light sources (such as LEDs) coupled to a controller and a light driver. The light driver is for driving the light sources and the controller is for detecting a voice command in order to control the mode of operation of the one or more light sources. The controller can have multiple control commands each for selecting a different mode of operation of the light source(s). The modes can be controlled by a common voice input term followed by a second voice command corresponding to a mode of operation of the light source. The system may include a second microphone which may be referred to herein as a “music microphone”. The commands can include “light show,” “slow pulse,” “steady on,” “blinking,” or “off”.
Abstract: An expandable grip apparatus to assist in holding a handheld device includes a base member having a substantially flat contact surface for securing to a surface of the handheld device, a top member that is spaced from the base member, and an expandable center section that connects between the base member and the top member, the expandable center section comprised of a series of integral foldable pleats. The series of integral foldable pleats include adjacently disposed foldable pleats that define a living hinge between the adjacently disposed foldable pleats to enable the expandable center section to selectively nest onto each other. The base member can include an adhesive or a magnet for securing the grip apparatus to the handheld device.
Abstract: A cooling bracelet that is adapted to be worn by a user for the purpose of cooling the wrist area of the user so as to lower the users body temperature after a period of exercise. The cooling bracelet is adapted for use in combination with a cooling pack that is mounted in the cooling bracelet. The cooling bracelet includes a middle pad and separate elongated bracelet straps that extend from the middle pad. Respective securing members are disposed at free ends of each elongated bracelet strap. The respective securing members are for fastening the cooling bracelet about the wrist area of the user. The middle pad of the cooling bracelet has a recess for receiving the cooling pack therein, said recess positioned, when the cooling bracelet is fastened about the wrist area of the user, to face the wrist area of the user in order to provide a cooling effect from the cooling pack and against the wrist area of the user.
