  • Publication number: 20210371235
    Abstract: The present invention provides a contactless elevator control system and method. The system comprises an infrared touch sensor, a relay control device and an elevator button control device, wherein: the infrared touch sensor emits an array of multiple infrared beams, receives reflected infrared beams, calculates a vertical and lateral displacement, determines a corresponding coordinate information, calculates a corresponding elevator button, and sends a corresponding control; the relay control device drives the corresponding relay contacts to close. The solution uses the infrared touch sensor to achieve contactless control of elevator buttons, reducing the risk of spreading bacteria and viruses when touching the elevator buttons.

  • Patent number: 9125525
    Abstract: An apparatus for grinding a mineral includes a head operable to be attached to a bottle. The head includes a radial slider for controlling the coarseness of the grind. The apparatus further includes an inner grinding element, an outer grinding element, a shaft, and a neck sleeve. The inner grinding element is in communication with the head. The outer grinding element is also in communication with the head, wherein the outer grinding element and the inner grinding element are operable to rotate relative to each other. The shaft extends through the inner grinding element and the outer grinding element. The shaft couples with the inner grinding element and has a blunt end. The shaft also extends through the neck sleeve, which acts as a spacer between the inner grinding element and the blunt end.

  • Patent number: 7854550
    Abstract: A thermometer includes an illuminated display, which may act as an intelligent indicator of the change and level of temperature. The thermometer includes memory unit accommodating multiple users and their past records respectively. When a new temperature reading is obtained, the thermometer compares the new temperature against the immediate preceding record of the same user. The thermometer further includes a display module indicating the change of temperature reading and the fever status of the user.

  • Publication number: 20090177129
    Abstract: The present invention is a wrist massager particularly applying to the wrist part of human being adopting acupressure theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in order to circumvent wrist musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). It comprises a wrist band operably engaged a control panel 4 and a motorised cushion housing 2 with protruding massage means3. The wrist band added with size-adjustable mechanism is designed for users to fit their wrist into the massager comfortably and firmly. It contains a motor/motors to produce vibration and deliver reciprocating and/or rotary massaging effect via the massage means3. Alternatively, the wrist massager is a plate 8 with planar bottom and a housing placed on the surface of the plate 8. A detachable massaging means protrudes from the surface of the said housing.
