  • Publication number: 20160316865
    Abstract: There is provided a wristband of a wearable device comprising a link, a first arm, a second arm, and an axle assembly supported by the link. The link includes a first side and a second side located substantially opposite the first side, and the link has a transverse axis extending through the first and second sides. The first arm is positioned near a portion of the first side of the link, and the transverse axis extends through the portion of the first side. The second arm is positioned at a portion of the second side of the link, and the transverse axis extends through the portion of the second side. The axle assembly is coupled to the first and second arms. The axle assembly permits the first arm to adjust along the transverse axis relative to the first side of the link while maintaining the second arm adjacent to the second side of the link, and the axle assembly permits the first arm to rotate about the transverse axis relative to the second arm.

  • Patent number: 8541515
    Abstract: This invention relates to a composition and method of modifying the surface properties of polymers to produce a film or article with improved surface properties by utilizing an organo-modified polyslioxane additive. The improved surface properties for the polymer include a reduced coefficient of friction, which assists the slip and anti-blocking properties of the material, as well aiding in processing of the polymeric material. Additionally, the additive composition of this invention improves demolding and release of the polymer material from other polymeric surfaces or adhesives as well as metal molding surfaces, and allows the entire film or article formed of the polyolefin and additive to be recycled.
