  • Publication number: 20240090564
    Abstract: Features relating to a vaporizer body are provided. The vaporizer body may include an outer shell that includes an inner region defined by an outer shell sidewall. A support structure is configured to fit within the inner region of the outer shell. The support structure includes a storage region defined by a top support structure, a bottom support structure, a bottom cap, and a gasket. An integrated board assembly is configured to fit within the storage region of the support structure. The integrated board assembly may include a printed circuit board assembly formed of multiple layers that form a rigid structure and that include an inner, flexible layer. A first antenna is integrated at a proximal end of the flexible layer, and a second antenna is integrated at a distal end of the flexible layer.

  • Patent number: 5174051
    Abstract: A sport shoe, such as a ski boot, has a rear shaft part which can be pivoted backwards for putting on the ski boot. On this rear shaft part a tensioning device for a band is arranged, which band is anchored by means of its two ends on a front shaft part. The tensioning device has a take-up drum for the band which is connected to a drive shaft via a shiftable splined coupling. To rotate the drive shaft, a tensioning lever which can be pivoted to and fro, is connected to the drive shaft by a grip-roller freewheel coupling. A return rotation of the drive shaft is prevented by means of a return lock. The drive shaft and the return lock are accommodated in a housing which is displaceable, in its longitudinal direction, in relation to the rear shaft part. To release the take-up drum for the purpose of unwinding the band, the splined coupling is uncoupled by displacing the housing in relation to the take-up drum which is held in its position by a support bar.

  • Patent number: 5090139
    Abstract: On the shaft (14) of the ski boot (12), a spindle (40) is mounted in the heel area (10). The spindle runs parallel to the sole (16) and at right angles to the longitudinal direction (B) of the boot. On the spindle (40), two opposite-running threads (38, 38') are formed, on each of which a support member (32) is located. By means of rotation of the spindle (40) from outside the ski boot (12), the support members (32) are moved towards or away from one another. This relative movement of the support members (32) is transformed, via inclined surfaces (30) on support ribs (26) of the foot-bed (22), into a movement of the foot-bed (22) in the direction of the arrow (A). By means of an asymmetrical arrangement of the two support members (32) in relation to the longitudinal center plane of the boot, a transverse inclination of the foot-bed (22) can be set.
