Abstract: A wrist strap which comprises a first portion defining a first end of the wrist strap, and a second portion defining a second end of the wrist strap. The wrist strap further comprises an aperture located in the first portion, through which the second end of the strap is passable to define an overlapping region in which a part of the first portion and the second portion of the wrist strap overlap. A first L-shaped peg is located in one portion of the first and second portions, and a first hole in the strap located in the other portion of the first and second portions. A second L-shaped peg is located in the other portion of the first and second portions, and a second hole in the strap located in the one portion.

Abstract: A nicotine delivery system is disclosed. The nicotine delivery system comprises an actuating mechanism and a housing that has a longitudinal axis and defines a chamber that is configured to receive a plunger and has an outlet for the passage of formulation out of the chamber. The actuating mechanism comprises an actuator and an actuation member. The actuator cooperates with the actuation member such that when a plunger is received in the chamber the plunger and the chamber slide relative to each other in an axial direction by a predetermined incremental distance upon each operation of the actuator to displace a predetermined volume of formulation from the chamber through said outlet.

Abstract: A component for an inhalation device having a first end for connection to a body of an inhalation device and a second end is disclosed. A passage extends through the component from the first end to the second end for the flow of inhalant therethrough. The first end includes a blind cavity, separate to the passage and containing an organoleptic material. Also, an inhalation device comprising a body with a first end connected to such a component of the inhalation device and, a second end configured to receive an inhalant-generating component, is disclosed. A conduit extends through the body between the first and second ends.

Abstract: An inhalation device to hold an inhalant-generating component to generate an inhalant to be drawn through the device and inhaled by a user. The device has a body (10) having a first open end (11b) configured to receive an inhalant-generating component and, a second open end (11a) in fluid communication with the first end through which a user may draw inhalant from the inhalant-generating component. The body is configured to receive a flavour delivery component (63) having an organoleptic material to selectively allow or prevent addition of an organoleptic additive into an inhalant stream drawn through the device. The device includes a ventilation control mechanism (15) configured to selectively allow different amounts of ambient air into the body to mix with and dilute the inhalant stream as it is drawn through the device in use.

Abstract: A closure includes a body adapted to mount on a container having a discharge outlet and a cap configured to move relative to the body from a closed position covering the discharge outlet to an opened position uncovering the discharge outlet. The closure also includes frangible links coupled to the body and cap that break in response to first-time movement of the cap from the closed position to the opened position to alert an observer that the cap has been opened once before.

Abstract: Block copolymers can be prepared by reacting a polyester resin or a polyol with a hydroxyl or carboxyl functional mercaptan and subsequently reacting the mercapto-blocked polyester or polyol in the presence of peroxygen-type or azo-type catalyst, with selected alpha, beta-ethylenically unsaturated monomer(s), such as diacetone acrylamide, acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, ethyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, styrene, methyl methacrylate, methacrylonitrile and the like. Such block copolymers provide for coating compositions having physical properties which provide for useful protective and decorative films.
