Publication number: 20240122263Abstract: A system comprising an aerosol provision system and a computer. The aerosol provision system is configured to generate aerosol from an aerosol-generating material. The computer is configured to obtain user behaviour data relating to an amount of an ingredient delivered from the aerosol-generating material to a user of the aerosol provision system. The computer then determines default user behaviour with respect to the amount of the ingredient to be delivered on the basis of the obtained user behaviour data. The computer then identifies, based on the obtained user behaviour, under what conditions to deliver a notification to the user, the notification informing the user of the user's current behaviour.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 14, 2020Publication date: April 18, 2024Inventors: Nicholas ROSSER, Connor BRUTON, Charanjit NANDRA, David RUSHFORTH, Darryl BAKER, Robert KERSEY, Mark CROSIER

The computer is configured to obtain user behaviour data relating to an amount of an ingredient delivered from the aerosol-generating material to a user of the aerosol provision system. The computer then determines default user behaviour with respect to the amount of the ingredient to be delivered on the basis of the obtained user behaviour data. The computer then monitors a current interaction by the user with the aerosol provision system, and when the current user interaction deviates from the default user behaviour with respect to the amount of the ingredient delivered by a pre-determined amount, the computer provides a notification to the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 14, 2020Publication date: April 18, 2024Inventors: Nicholas ROSSER, Connor BRUTON, Charanjit NANDRA, David RUSHFORTH, Darryl BAKER, Robert KERSEY, Mark CROSIER

Patent number: 5496538Abstract: A sprayable cosmetic product is provided that includes a clear bottle capable of withstanding at least 10 psig fitted with a spray nozzle, and a clear, single-phase cosmetic composition. The cosmetic composition will contain a hydrocarbon propellant and a concentrate which may contain .alpha.-olefin sulphonate salts, alkyl polyglucosides and betaines as well as mixtures thereof. Upon activation of the spray nozzle, a thick, creamy mousse is expressed. The cosmetic compositions preferably will have a pH ranging from about 3.0 to 6.5. Best aesthetic appeal is achieved with a red dye which has been stabilized with a UV absorbing agent.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 1994Date of Patent: March 5, 1996Assignee: Chesebrough-Pond's USA Co., Division of Conopco, Inc.Inventors: Amy C.
