Patent number: 11639090Abstract: A car window and door guard has an upper or window portion configured to be mounted over the window frame surrounding the window of a car door, and a lower or door portion or cover configured to be lie over the door panel. The window portion has a front panel and a rear panel to form a sleeve. The window portion is generally see-through or transparent. The door includes an upper strip or section and a series of window tabs. Each window tab has a generally flat or planar portion extending from an elongated upper channel portion. The channel portion captures the door window slot or surround to prevent the window tab from being moved upward during the raising of the window. The door portion also has a lower section extending downwardly from the upper section that drapes over the car's door panel to protect the door panel.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 2021Date of Patent: May 2, 2023Assignee: Radio Systems CorporationInventor: Christopher Spater

Patent number: 11553692Abstract: A method is described that comprises receiving a filtered signal corresponding to an acoustic event, applying one or more tests to the filtered signal in a sequence, wherein each test of the one or more tests assesses the filtered signal for the presence of one or more characteristics, the determining the presence of the one or more characteristics comprising a failure to identify the acoustic event as a first event, terminating the applying the one or more tests when a test determines the presence of the one or more characteristics, and identifying the acoustic event as the first event upon an occurrence of completing all tests of the one or more tests, the completing all tests including each test in the sequence determining the absence of the one or more characteristics.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2018Date of Patent: January 17, 2023Assignee: Radio Systems CorporationInventors: Brent A. Goetzl, Matthew Richardson, Patrick Tyndall

Patent number: 11510392Abstract: A flow-controlled pet watering fountain and method of use, thereof, is disclosed. The watering fountain utilizes a pump to direct water up a lift pipe and into a reservoir, whereupon the drinking water falls gravitationally into a drinking basin. Further, the watering fountain allows for control of water flow by selectively opening and closing a flow control valve that is located above the pump and along the water lift pipe. In its open position, the flow control valve allows water to fall back into an interior basin by diverting the flow of water into a return pipe. This arrangement helps prevent premature failure of the pump by allowing the pump to run under substantially the same load and without reducing the total water cycles through the filters. The watering device also allows the water flow from the spout to be completely turned off.Type: GrantFiled: May 23, 2018Date of Patent: November 29, 2022Assignee: RADIO SYSTEMS CORPORATIONInventor: Kevin M. Sayers

Patent number: 11470813Abstract: A centrifugal pump pet water fountain is provided which includes a bowl defined by a peripheral wall extending upwardly from a floor. The bowl is configured to hold water. The housing divides the basin into a drinking basin and an interior basin. The housing includes an upright sidewall extending from a floor and a cap. The housing also defines an elevated water reservoir with a spout. A rotating cone is positioned within the housing and driven by a motor. The cone has a water inlet and a top opening adjacent the cone top opening. During operation, the rotation of the cone forces water to climb the interior surface of the cone through centrifugal force, where the water is deposited within the reservoir and returned to the drinking basin through the spout.Type: GrantFiled: September 5, 2019Date of Patent: October 18, 2022Assignee: Radio Systems CorporationInventors: Kevin Michael Sayers, Cody Lee Stricklin, Anita Rechelle White, Jonathan William Huber, Marc Edward Brush, Eric Alexander Ward, Grant Matthew Given

Patent number: 11470817Abstract: An pet spray training system is provided. The system includes a sound, vibration or motion sensor that is configured to generate electrical signals in response to an occurrence. The system may include a filter, which is tuned to recognize a dog barking event, and generate an electrical signal in response to recognizing an input signal indicative of a dog's bark. The system further includes a removably pressurized gas reservoir that holds a deterrent fluid under pressure. The system additionally comprises a motor module configured to rotate a shaft in response to the electrical signal from the filter. The canister has a spray nozzle for releasing fluid that affects the dog's senses. In response to rotating the shaft, the spray nozzle is depressed.Type: GrantFiled: November 23, 2020Date of Patent: October 18, 2022Assignee: Radio Systems CorporationInventors: Bai Weimin, Anthony J. Reinhart
