Abstract: A sanitizing device for sanitizing a chestpiece of a stethoscope connected to at least one earpiece by a tube, the sanitizing device being composed of: a housing composed of two housing halves and a hinge assembly connecting the housing halves together to permit relative pivotal movement between the housing halves between a closed state in which the housing halves enclose a closed space, and an open state; and a source of sanitizing radiation disposed to irradiate the closed space. The housing is provided with an opening for receiving the tube; the opening is composed of two opening portions each formed in a respective housing half; and the hinge assembly is composed of two hinge portions each forming part of a respective housing half, the hinge portions being separable from one another to allow the chestpiece to be placed in the closed space.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to recording and providing media files based on a location. Such systems and methods maybe transacted by a client application or a processor in communication with one or more electronic devices. The system can be accessed through a website or through mobile platform applications. Certain content can only be added through a mobile device in which GPS data and photo time stamping will be accessed. Content will be viewable by users in the form of a stack of media files (e.g. photos) with related comments in which this content is prioritized by time and algorithmic methods. Users will have the ability to communicate with other users through the system while advertising can be set up in the mobile application with payment occurring through in-app purchasing mechanism.

Abstract: A connector used with a cartridge for delivering fluid is provided. The cartridge can be used in a lotion application machine. The connector has a base and a locking section, which are operatively connected to each other and collectively define a passageway in fluid communication with the cartridge. The base has a bottom plate for attaching the connector to the cartridge. The locking section has a lower portion for connecting the base and an upper portion for connecting a fitting member used in the lotion application machine. The upper portion has a breakable protrusion. The breakable protrusion engages a locking element of the fitting member when the upper portion is connected to the fitting member, to temporarily lock the fitting member to the connector. The breakable protrusion can break away from the locking section when a predetermined force is applied to disconnect the fitting member from the connector.
