Abstract: An apparatus, system and method of cooling sensitive electronics in a heated environment. The apparatus, system and method include the sensitive electronics adjacent to a heating chamber, and within an electronics chamber; a flow separator axially extending through the electronics chamber; and an air intake that flows air external to the heating chamber and electronics chamber into the electronics chamber axially to the flow separator, such that the flow forms a thermal break zone adjacent the heating chamber on one side of the flow separator, and a cooling zone on an other side of the flow separator about the sensitive electronics.

Abstract: A laundry appliance includes a cabinet. A door is coupled to the cabinet. The door is operable between a closed position and an opened position. A microphone assembly is coupled to the door. The microphone assembly is configured to receive a voice command. A microcontroller is coupled to the door. The microcontroller is operably coupled to the microphone assembly and the microcontroller. A proximity sensor is coupled to the microphone assembly. The proximity sensor defines a sensor field that extends outward from the door.

Abstract: Described herein are concepts, systems, circuits and techniques for a docking station configured to couple to an enteral feeding pump or other medical device. In one embodiment, the docking station includes a wireless transmitter for communicating data, such as operating parameters and/or status, to a remote monitor over a wireless communication link, to permit remote monitoring of certain pump diagnostics. In some embodiments, the docking station may utilize the wireless communication link to permit control and/or data exchange with the feeding pump. This may be in addition to or in place of the remote monitoring. The pump may also contain a receiver for receiving data such as operating parameter instructions, general operating instructions, and/or commands.
