Publication number: 20170281467Abstract: A pill bottle cap provides access to authorized users using a biometric authentication feature. The pill bottle cap broadly includes: a shroud; a plurality of clamp members, each movably mounted to the shroud; a drive member interconnected with each of the clamp members to cause the clamp members to move in a first direction when the drive member is actuated in a first direction, and to cause the clamp members to move in a second direction when the drive member is actuated in a second direction; an actuator configured to actuate the drive member to selectively move in each of the first and second directions; and biometric identification module coupled to the actuator, and configured to activate the actuator to cause the selective movement upon identification of an authorized user. Each of the components are configured and positioned to minimize a height and a volume of the pill bottle cap.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 29, 2017Publication date: October 5, 2017Inventor: Brandon Solotoff

Publication number: 20170224027Abstract: An adjustable support brassiere comprises traditional bra elements—a bra band with closure; left and right breast cups; and respective shoulder straps. Adjustability may comprise left and right inner support cups having inner ends pivotally attached, respectively, to the left and right breast cups, and a respective support strap having a bottom end attached at a distal (outer) end of each inner support cup, with a top end of each support strap fixedly secured to a hook member. Each of the left and right hook members may be releasably secured to two or more different portions of the shoulder strap, to cause individual lifting and reconfiguring of the left and right inner support cups to produce a desired amount of lifting to each of the woman's breasts. Adjustments may be made by a woman throughout the day to alter her appearance as desired.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 26, 2017Publication date: August 10, 2017Inventor: Brandon Solotoff

Publication number: 20170095009Abstract: An adjustable support brassiere comprises traditional bra elements—a bra band with closure; breast cups; and respective shoulder straps. Adjustability may comprise inner support cups having opposite ends being selectively attached on each breast cup, and a respective support strap being secured to each inner support cup, with a distal end of the support strap secured to an adjustment clip, which may releasably secure a portion of the shoulder strap. Adjustably securing different portions of the shoulder strap causes lifting and reconfiguring of the inner support cup to produce a desired amount of substantially vertical lifting to the woman's breast(s) in one embodiment, which is generally healthier for breast tissue than the typical inward displacement. Adjustments may be made by a woman throughout the day to alter her appearance as desired. Alternative embodiments permit lifting as well as inward/outward displacement, and may therefore serve as a minimizer.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 19, 2016Publication date: April 6, 2017Inventor: Brandon Solotoff

Patent number: 9504281Abstract: An adjustable support brassiere comprises traditional bra elements—a bra band with closure; breast cups; and respective shoulder straps. Adjustability may comprise inner support cups having opposite ends being selectively attached on each breast cup, and a respective support strap being secured to each inner support cup, with a distal end of the support strap secured to an adjustment clip, which may releasably secure a portion of the shoulder strap. Adjustably securing different portions of the shoulder strap causes lifting and reconfiguring of the inner support cup to produce a desired amount of substantially vertical lifting to the woman's breast(s) in one embodiment, which is generally healthier for breast tissue than the typical inward displacement. Adjustments may be made by a woman throughout the day to alter her appearance as desired. Alternative embodiments permit lifting as well as inward/outward displacement, and may therefore serve as a minimizer.Type: GrantFiled: September 3, 2014Date of Patent: November 29, 2016Inventor: Brandon Solotoff

Patent number: 8668549Abstract: An adjustable support brassiere comprises the traditional bra elements of a bra band with closure; breast cups secured thereto; and respective shoulder straps. Adjustability may comprise mini support cups pivotally attached at a selective location on each breast cup. A respective support strap may be secured to a portion of each mini support cup, with a distal end adjustably securable to the shoulder strap to be moveable between at least first and second positions to cause pivoting of the mini support cup to produce directional support according to a desirable lifting vector. Adjustment of the support strap may produce a lifting vector to provide directional support comprising substantially vertical support and outward separating support to enhance the women's figure, which is healthier for breast tissue than the typical inward displacement of the woman's breasts. A second embodiment may utilize a translating mini support cup and a gathered elastic member.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 2011Date of Patent: March 11, 2014Inventor: Brandon Solotoff

Patent number: 8413266Abstract: A method for creating a series of size-proportioned trouser bottoms comprises each of the slack bottoms being approximated as a cylindrical surface transitioning into a circular conical surface. The back lower portion of the circular conical surface is trimmed along a cutting plane to produce a parabolic-shaped rear edge, to provide rear clearance above a shoe heel. The front lower portion of the circular conical surface is trimmed along second cutting plane producing a unique parabolic-shape front edge for clearance above a shoe throat. Trimming may be by a CNC fabric cutting machine, using the descriptive geometric definition of the circular conical surface, (x/?)2+(y/?)2(z/?)2=0, and using planar cuts for the parabolic edge trim defined by the equation, Ax+?z+?=0. The defined surface may be unwrapped and supplied to the CNC machine as a flat pattern.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2010Date of Patent: April 9, 2013Inventor: Brandon Solotoff

Publication number: 20120111381Abstract: An umbrella that offers improved performance in windy conditions is disclosed that includes an umbrella cover that has a plurality of gills positioned throughout its surface to allow for the release of air pressure caused by wind that impacts the umbrella cover. A flap portion may be positioned over each of the gills so that the flap is raised when wind gusts blow into the umbrella in order to permit the release of air from the umbrella. This reduces the risk that the umbrella could blow inside out or reverse itself. The flap is also preferably positioned over the slit in order to prevent water from going through the umbrella and wetting the umbrella's handler.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 7, 2011Publication date: May 10, 2012Inventor: Brandon Solotoff
