Abstract: The invention is a security bracket for a retail display. The security bracket has guide pins extending laterally outwardly from each side of a base member. Sliding blocks are mounted to each pair of guide pins. The sliding block also carries a vertical arm that may be adjusted upwardly or downwardly. Adjustment of the sliding blocks relative to a hand-held allows the security bracket to be used for mounting hand-helds with different footprints to a retail display.
Abstract: A flex-mount sensor has an electrical contact portion that is at least partly surrounded by a lower housing. The lower housing has a central portion. A flexible adhesive strip has an opening that is placed over the upper portion. An upper housing serves as a cap that sandwiches the flexible material between the upper and lower housings. Lateral portions of the flexible material are used to join the sensor to an article for theft-deterrent purposes.
Abstract: A flexible magnetic pad for therapeutic use having single pole magnetic surfaces includes a mixture of a flexible synthetic material and magnetic particles having a high magnetic retentivity with a residual induction of at least 0.8 Tesla. Preferably, the synthetic material is silicone rubber and the magnetic particles are Neodymium-Iron-Boron. Sealing layers of flexible synthetic material surround the mixture to prevent disengagement of the particles. The pad is form-fitting to the contours of the body and has an elasticity enabling 200% elongation.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for the reduction of the intensity of magnetic field emissions from display devices and other magnetic field emitters comprising an active magnetic field bucking system and a passive magnetic shield, for use either singularly or in combination. Various circuits are disclosed for generating a bucking current necessary to buck the emitted magnetic field. The magnetic shield comprises a material selected from the group consisting of manganese or aluminum doped yttrium aluminum or yttrium iron garnet, iron doped glass, iron based thin films, ferrous fluoride, ferrous borate, and combinations thereof.
Abstract: Method and apparatus for the reduction of the intensity of magnetic field emissions from video display units (VDU) in the vicinity of the user comprising a wire coil shaped to mimic the shape of conventional VDU deflection coils draped over a VDU to produce a cancelling magnetic field synchronous with the magnetic field produced by the unit's deflection coil. The cancellation coil is driven by a signature sensor disposed forward of the deflection coil that senses the characteristics of the magnetic field produced by the deflection coil. The gain of the cancellation coil is adjusted to maximize the cancellation coil's cancellation effect in the vicinity of the VDU user.
