Patent number: 11966261Abstract: In a display assistant device, a speaker is mounted in a waveguide structure which is at least partially disposed beneath a display screen. The waveguide structure is mounted in an exterior housing which includes speaker grills distributed on a plurality of surfaces of the exterior housing, permitting sound waves from the speaker to be projected outside the exterior housing. A cover structure is disposed on top of the waveguide structure to conceal the waveguide structure and speaker within the exterior housing. The cover structure has a tilted bottom surface configured to be suspended above the waveguide structure and to be separated by a first space. Sound waves projected from an upper portion of the speaker are reflected by the tilted bottom surface and are guided through the first space to exit the device from a speaker grill portion located on a rear side of the exterior housing.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2022Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: Google LLCInventors: James Nelson Castro, Carl Alexander Cepress, Liang Ching Tseng, Darren Torrie, Frances Maria Hui Hong Kwee, Rex Pinegar Price

Patent number: 11931017Abstract: A tool actuation connector includes a tool activation interface, a longitudinal lock interface and a rotation lock interface. The tool actuation connector includes a latching spring, an inner sleeve and an outer sleeve. The latching spring includes a plurality of spring hooks, for coupling with the tool activation interface. The inner sleeve is operable to longitudinally move relative to the latching spring. The inner sleeve couples the latching spring to the activation interface when the inner sleeve is located over the latching spring and releases the latching spring from the activation interface when the inner sleeve moves away from the latching spring toward the proximal direction. The outer sleeve is rotationally locked with the inner sleeve and is operable to longitudinally move relative to the inner sleeve. The outer sleeve is further operable to rotationally lock with the tool via the rotation lock interface.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 2019Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: VALUEBIOTECH ISRAEL LTD.Inventors: Nir Geffen, Avraham Rami Lore, Eldar Cohen, Alexander Mikler, Paul Price, Antonello Forgione, Renzo Zaltieri

Patent number: 4134577Abstract: A fly-tying vise has a vise portion for gripping a fly-tying hook supported by a vertical support post above a clamp portion for gripping the free edge of a tabletop. A jaw assembly of the vise portion has a pair of hook-clamping jaws opened and closed by a thumb screw. The jaw assembly cooperates with a spring-biased detent to allow rotation of the jaws without changing their closure setting through application of a combined axial and torsional pressure to the thumb screw. The clamp portion includes a sleeve slidably adjustable along the support post and a pair of clamping arms, one fixed to and the other slidable along the sleeve to adjust for different tabletop thicknesses. The slidable arm carries a thumb-screw-operated bearing disc which creates a bind between the slidable arm and sleeve to hold such arm in an adjusted position when the disc and fixed arm bear against opposed surfaces of a tabletop.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 1977Date of Patent: January 16, 1979Inventors: Alexander Price, Eric A.
