Publication number: 20240287714Abstract: A woven fabric material including an array of machine direction yarns and cross-machine direction yarns. The array includes larger denier yarns arranged in an alternating pattern with smaller denier yarns in both the machine direction and the cross-machine direction. The array of machine direction yarns and cross-machine direction yarns is arranged to allow water to pass freely through the woven fabric material.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 7, 2024Publication date: August 29, 2024Applicant: LUMITE, INC.Inventors: Alan SUTTON, Ron ROOKS, Greg HENDRIX

Publication number: 20240207220Abstract: Cannabidiol (CBD) is a cannabinoid designated chemically as 2-[(IR,6R)-3-Methyl-6-(1-methylethenyl)-2-cyclohexen-1-yl]-5-pentyl-1,3-benzenediol. Its empirical formula is C21H30O2 and its molecular weight is 314.46. CBD is a cannabinoid that naturally occurs in the Cannabis sativa L. plant. CBD is a white to pale yellow crystalline solid which is insoluble in water and soluble in organic solvents. The present invention encompasses the surprising recognition that certain CBD preparations which are prepared from a botanical origin are more effective in treating diseases or disorders than preparations of CBD which are synthetic or purified to the extent no other impurities in the form of other cannabinoids are present. Prior CBD compositions have been prepared such that no psychoactive components, e.g., tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), remain in the final CBD preparation. Surprisingly, the absence of such minor impurities reduces the efficacy of CBD treatment.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 8, 2023Publication date: June 27, 2024Inventors: Geoffrey GUY, Volker Knappertz, Benjamin Whalley, Marie Woolley-Roberts, James Brodie, Katarzyna Lach-Falcone, Alan Sutton, Royston Gray, Rohini Rajyalaxmi Rana

Patent number: 10302290Abstract: A light-up article includes a housing having an aperture at a bottom that receives a lighting device that extends outwardly therefrom. The lighting device includes a spring biased assembly for biasing a contact switch therein to an open position. When force is applied to the article downwardly, springs compress as housing members of the lighting device approach and the contact switch actuates. Actuation results in an electrical circuit outputting light from a light emitter at the top of the lighting device that is viewable through a translucent housing of the article.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2017Date of Patent: May 28, 2019Inventor: Alan Sutton

Publication number: 20190022538Abstract: An article includes a light emitting module that sequences multiple modes of operation for a light therein. The article is a toy that includes a generally transparent object having a molded part provided as a recess for a light emitting module. A fabric or skin covers the inflatable object and the light emitting module. In operation, the light emitting module projects light into the inflatable object and the light is emitted through the skin of the article generally about the entirety thereof. One operating mode provides steady illumination and a second mode provides flashing and/or multicolor effects. The article includes indicia, appendages or other distinctive features. The article is securable to footwear or other wearables.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 21, 2016Publication date: January 24, 2019Inventors: Alan Sutton, Michael Chi Hang Yeung

Publication number: 20170135178Abstract: A light emitting system for an article includes a switch that manually selects from multiple modes of operation for lights. The article may be a toy, slumber bed, backpack, wearable article, or light emitting system for receiving a container. One mode provides illumination and a second mode provides flashing and/or multicolor effects. Another lighting system includes a lighting module with a lighting circuit having a motion switch or other type of sensor, an electronic switch, a biasing circuit, and a plurality of multi-color lights that change color. An article has a recess for receiving the lighting module. The controller controls different lamps disposed in regions of the lighting module based on movement or other external factor or force detected by the sensor. The regions include indicia that provide changing facial expressions by operating different lamps when detection of motion occurs repeatedly within predetermined time periods.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 17, 2015Publication date: May 11, 2017Inventors: Alan Sutton, Michael Chi Hang Yeung
