Publication number: 20110282256Abstract: A system comprising a combination of orthopedic traction devices for limiting abduction of the arm and preventing impingement of the user's shoulder. The devices include a nighttime ipsilateral shoulder traction device with removable leg and wrist cuffs, an elastic connecting strap connecting the cuffs to apply impingement-reducing traction to the shoulder joint; and a daytime centrifugal exercise device with a weighted member rotated by a handle using the ipsilateral arm. The invention also includes a method for using the two devices in combination, and a series of exercises for the centrifugal exercise device that specifically complement the nighttime impingement reduction of the traction device. In the preferred form, the traction device includes removable leg and wrist cuffs secured to the lower leg and wrist, respectively, and a one-handed quick release mechanism that allows the user to release the cuffed arm with the cuffed hand.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 26, 2011Publication date: November 17, 2011Applicant: JOINT SMART LLCInventor: Michael F.

Patent number: 7591425Abstract: An autonomous and portable smartcard reader device incorporates a high level of embedded security countermeasures. Data transfers are encrypted with specific input devices, namely a light sensor/DTMF/infrared and PIN or other keyboard entry, and at the output through the use of a dual-tone encoder-decoder. The unit may be used alone or as a plug-in to another device such as a PDA, cell phone, or remote control. The reader may further be coupled to various biometric or plug-in devices to achieve at least five levels of authentication, namely, (1) the smartcard itself; (2) the smartcard reader; (2) the PIN; (3) private-key cryptography (PKI); and (5) the (optional) biometric device. These five levels account for an extremely strong authentication applicable to public networking on public/private computers, and even on TV (satellite, cable, DVD, CD AUDIO, software applications.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 2006Date of Patent: September 22, 2009Assignee: Brite Smart LLCInventors: Patrick Zuili, Serge Atlan

Publication number: 20080290065Abstract: A laser ice etching system (7) includes a laser (11) for producing a laser beam, a laser aiming system (13) adapted to aim and direct a laser beam produced by the laser (11) onto forming ice cubes and a controller (9) operatively coupled to the laser (11) and the laser aiming system (13). The controller (9) provides commands to the laser (11) to produce the laser beam and commands to the laser aiming system (13) to aim and direct the laser beam onto the forming ice cubes. The laser ice etching system (7) is positioned adjacent to a vertical cold plate (3) of an ice making machine (1) and forms an image in the center of an ice cube by aiming and directing the laser beam in a predetermined pattern over a portion of the ice cube.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 24, 2006Publication date: November 27, 2008Applicant: CK SMART, LLCInventors: Michael T. Jennison, Jeffrey Gibala

Patent number: 7438223Abstract: Enabling the providers of automated blood pressure readings, such as pharmacies, corporate work sites, health clubs and other customers, to charge a fee for the long-term use of a memory card to record non-invasive physiological test data and make the data available for health consultations. In an automated blood pressure system with one or more memory-card interface devices, a custom-formatted end-user memory card keeps track of the user's non-invasive physiological test data, and a recharge memory card controls the provider's recharging of the end-user memory card after the end-user memory card expires. The contents of the recharge memory card are updated in order to track its use by the provider of the readings.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 2006Date of Patent: October 21, 2008Assignee: Pharma-Smart LLCInventors: Fred Sarkis, Joseph O.

Patent number: 7427268Abstract: A closed blood pressure cuff including a ring-shaped inflatable bladder having an inner portion for making direct contact with a user's arm and an outer portion having a fixed circumference outside the inner portion. The bladder is formed of non-distensible material, preferably by joining a tubular starting element. The inner portion of the bladder is not constrained during inflation and thus can readily conform to a subject's limb, the outer portion accommodating an upper limit of arm circumference within the cuff. The cuff may include a stiffener attached to the outer portion of the bladder to automatically adjust the shape of the bladder during inflation. The stiffener may be in the form of a continuous layer or may comprise a plurality of axial ribs, allowing the cuff to be folded when not in use. The cuff may be generally cylindrical or may be tapered.Type: GrantFiled: July 26, 2004Date of Patent: September 23, 2008Assignee: Pharma-Smart, LLCInventors: Jack Millay, Paul Patterson

Patent number: 7249104Abstract: This invention improves upon existing pay-per-click arrangements periodically generating a code associated with the search-engine users. This code, preferably in the form of a serial number, is compared to the user of the website, such that by observing a metric like the number of clicks for a given period of time, be it a short time or a longer period, such as a day or a week, the system can automatically determine if certain clicks are illegitimate. This allows the pay-per-click company to more fairly invoice the merchants, thereby preventing fraudulent over use.Type: GrantFiled: February 7, 2003Date of Patent: July 24, 2007Assignee: Brite Smart, LLCInventor: Patrick Zuili
