Abstract: In certain example embodiments, provided is a compact massager, comprising: (1) one or more massage head attachment portions; and (2) a massager body, wherein the massager body is configured to connect with the one or more massage head attachment portions at the front body side, the massager body further comprises: (i) a motor; (ii) a PCBA; (iii) a display; (iv) a power source; wherein the power source is configured to electrically connect with the motor, the PCBA and the display; (v) a Z-shaped, transmission crank, configured to translate rotary motion from the motor to reciprocating motion of the one or more massage head attachment portions; and (vi) a counterweight, having an eccentric cam, an input shaft and an output shaft, wherein the input shaft is disposed at one side of the cam and is operatively connected to the motor, and an output shaft is disposed at an opposing side of the cam and is operatively connected to the transmission crank.

Abstract: An artificial Christmas tree includes an elongated trunk extending between proximal and distal ends thereof. A base may support the trunk of the artificial tree in an upright position relative to floor. The proximal end of the trunk may be coupled to the base and the distal end of the trunk extending outwardly from the base. A plurality of frame sections may extend circumferentially around the trunk and being moveable in an axial direction relative to the trunk. Each frame section may extend longitudinally between axially spaced apart ends thereof and being connected with at least one other frame section, whereby axial movement of a given frame section along the trunk causes corresponding axial movement of each other frame section to which the given frame section is connected.

Abstract: A system and method for dispensing a beverage. The system includes a beverage cartridge that stores any liquid and has a spout for dispensing the stored liquid. The beverage cartridge may be inserted into a beverage press that includes a housing for receiving the beverage cartridge. The beverage press also includes a tap that engages the spout of the beverage cartridge, and a lifting assembly that exerts force on the beverage cartridge. Pressing the tap activates the spout of the beverage cartridge to dispense the stored liquid through the spout and out of the tap of the beverage press. a system for dispensing a beverage.

Abstract: One or more embodiments disclosed herein relate generally to flotation devices, and more specifically to modular flotation devices with a mechanism to removably attach to other modular devices. In one embodiments, an apparatus includes a first flotation module and a first connector coupled to the first flotation module. The first connector has a first end portion, a second end portion and a sidewall extended from the first end portion to the second end portion. The sidewall defines a plurality of circumferentially defined stepped portions configured to matingly engage a second connector of a second flotation module to couple the first flotation module to the second flotation module. The first connector is selectively operative as one of a female connector or a male connector with respect to the second connector.
