Publication number: 20240085143Abstract: A crossbow having an energy storage system configured for storing energy when a bowstring is cocked at full-draw and releasing at least a portion of the stored energy when a trigger is pulled releasing the bowstring. The stored energy is defined by an area under a power-curve or draw-curve of the crossbow. The power-curve is defined by the force required to draw the bowstring from an un-cocked position to the cocked position. Between the un-cocked position and an intermediate position, the force required to draw the bowstring is substantially proportional to the draw distance. Between the intermediate position and the cocked position, the force required to draw the bowstring is substantially constant. When the cocked bowstring is released, at least a portion of the stored energy is transferred in the form of kinetic energy of an arrow or bolt nocked on the cocked bowstring.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 7, 2020Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Mark W. Beck, Matthew Peter Haas, Benjamin D. Blosser

Publication number: 20240019601Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to testing apparatus and methods for measuring forces between objects. The apparatus and methods are used to detect a change in the local gravitational constant resulting from non-Newtonian effects of General Relativity and/or a novel radial dilation influence. Detection is facilitated by measuring a force difference between a stationary state and a spinning state of attractive forces between objects. The apparatus and methods are used to detect a change in electromechanical influence of forces due to the Barnett affect and other anomalous electromagnetic force contributors. A testing apparatus includes a central target arrangement. The central target arrangement includes a pair of masses, and a target coupled to the pair of masses. The testing apparatus includes a detector configured to recognize the target, and a first rotatable mass. The first rotatable mass is supported independently of the target and the pair of target masses.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 13, 2022Publication date: January 18, 2024Inventors: Phillip Scott LENTZ, Benjamin PETERS, Kevin STEPHENS, Evan LASKE

Patent number: 11857726Abstract: Apparatus and methods automate selection of patient interface(s) according to their size, such as with processing in a processor(s) or in a server(s). Image data captured by an image sensor may be received. The captured image data may contain facial feature(s) of an intended user of the patient interface. The facial features may be captured in association with a predetermined reference feature of known dimension(s). The user's facial feature(s) and the reference feature may be detected in the captured image data. Image pixel data of the image may be processed to measure an aspect of the detected facial feature(s) based on the reference feature. A patient interface size may be detected from standard patient interface sizes based on a comparison between the measured aspect of the facial feature(s) and a data record relating sizing information of the standard patient interface sizes and the measured aspect of the facial feature(s).Type: GrantFiled: March 9, 2021Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Inventors: Timothy Tsun-Fai Fu, Denis Butyletskiy, Michiel Kooij, Benjamin Peter Johnston, Robert James Hudson
