Publication number: 20250115411Abstract: A product dispensing clock includes a housing and a reservoir arranged in the housing. The reservoir holds a number of dispensable products. A dispenser is arranged in the housing adjacent the reservoir. The dispenser receives at least one of the dispensable products from the reservoir. A collection chamber is defined in the housing. The dispenser dispenses the dispensable products received from the reservoir to the collection chamber for a user to collect the dispensable products. A controller activates the dispenser at a predetermined time interval to dispense the dispensable products to the collection chamber for collection by the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 20, 2024Publication date: April 10, 2025Inventor: David Davidson

Patent number: 11879116Abstract: A method of analysing nucleic acid using apparatus comprising a reaction chamber and plurality of sensors located in the base of the chamber, with each sensor preferably located within a respective well. The method comprises flowing a fluid containing the nucleic acid or fragments thereof into the reaction chamber. While the chamber is fully or at least partially sealed, amplification of the nucleic acid or said fragments is performed within the chamber using an amplification primer or primers whilst detecting the generation of amplicons using said sensors. Sequencing or hybridisation is then performed on the amplicons, and sequencing or hybridisation is detected using said sensors.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 2022Date of Patent: January 23, 2024Assignee: DNAe Group Holdings LimitedInventors: Christofer Toumazou, David Davidson, Samuel Reed

Publication number: 20220125535Abstract: A surgical robotic arm (520) for use with an external vision system (512) includes onboard control and at least four degrees of articulation. The robotic arm (520) can position various tools (534) in the surgical theatre responsive to positional feedback from the vision system (512). Exemplary tools (534) include a handpiece (519) that includes a motorized burr or saw, a cutting guide (542) for a handheld saw, and a laser to actively define a resection area for a surgeon. The tool (534) or a reference point on the arm (520) relative to the tool (534) includes fiducial marks to register the position of the tool (534) with the vision system (512). Exemplary tools (534) are especially suited for knee and hip arthroplasty and can be moved under processor or manual control.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 11, 2020Publication date: April 28, 2022Inventors: Sied JANNA, Alisha BERGIN, David DAVIDSON, Dinendra RAMACHANDRAN, Kavya SURESH, Rishii Nandhan KONGANAPURAM, Constantinos NIKOU, Manogna GHALI, Riddhit MITRA, Brian W.

Publication number: 20100258107Abstract: The present invention relates to a transportable wood-fired oven trailer which is mountable to a towing vehicle, and can be modified in certain aspects between “transport” and “operational” modes. The trailer has increased manoeuvrability in particular when reversing and also increased stability due to the rearwardly offset wheel axle, and whose configuration also provides for increased storage and work space. It is envisaged that such trailers could be transported to public and social events and shows, and used to prepare wood-fired food.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 7, 2010Publication date: October 14, 2010Applicant: CHIMEX PTY LTDInventors: ANGUS DAVIDSON, Andrew David Davidson
