  • Publication number: 20210093041
    Abstract: A process of making a family cell of homogenous inner bladders with varying elasticity includes a forming a plurality of inner bladders from a first material with a first elasticity. The inner bladders have interior surfaces during inner chambers and exterior surfaces exposed to an outside environment. The inner chambers are configured to store a fluid. A family cell is formed by fluidly connecting the inner bladders. One or more hybrid bladders are selected from the inner bladders and a second material having a second elasticity is applied to the hybrid bladders. The second elasticity is less than the first elasticity, such that the second material reduces the elastic qualities of the hybrid bladder.

  • Patent number: 9498020
    Abstract: Cell flow device and method provides a sequential linear flow of pressure resistance includes a family cell of two or more continuance cells. These continuance cells have the same or different size and shape. They also have different degrees of elastomeric capability and are in fluid connection with the advantage of a properly calibrated valve(s) and will transfer air, gas, liquid, or other substance or media, or mixture thereof by a sequential linear flow of pressure resistance from a reservoir or external source through different degrees of elastic potential energy, geometric advantages, or introduction of a force. Thereby, the family cell performs the predetermined function in any device that uses the technology for a wide array of uses for users and operators thereof.

  • Patent number: 8720473
    Abstract: Cell flow technology is a platform technology comprised of a family cell, or multiple familiar cells (matrix), in a homogeneous or heterogeneous group format, which includes primary and secondary active cells and passive cells. These continuance cells in a congruent or varying size and shape that have the same or different degrees of capabilities are interconnected and interactive with or without the advantage of a properly calibrated and variable continuance valve(s) and shall dynamically transfers air, gas, liquid, or other substance or media, or mixture thereof by a continuously variable, and renewable, continuance of pressure resistance autogeneously through elastomeric potential energy, geometric advantages, introduction of a force, or removal of a source of a force. Thereby, the family cell will perform the predetermined function in a present device that shall use the technology for a wide array of uses for any imaginable living being that shall operate the technology.

  • Publication number: 20130208937
    Abstract: A case that supports integrated personal audio speakers for easy and secure access for connection to an electronic device is provided. The case includes an extension and retraction mechanism to allow for extension of the personal audio speakers from within the case, and retraction of the same into the case in a manner that avoids tangling of the cord of the personal audio speakers. In one embodiment, the case is configured to store and protect the electronic device as well, and includes an extendable and retractable popper mechanism to electronically connect an audio plug supported by the case with an audio jack of the electronic device. The popper mechanism moves the plug between a retracted position supported within the case and out of engagement with the electronic device, an extended position where the plug extends from within the case, and an engaged position where the plug is operatively engaged with the jack of the electronic device.

  • Publication number: 20120298227
    Abstract: The cell flow technology is comprised of a family cell, which includes an active cell and passive cell (heterogeneous group family cell), or a primary passive cell and secondary passive cell (passive homogeneous group family cell) or a primary active cell and secondary active cell (active homogeneous group family cell), of which these pressure resistance continuance cells transfer a continuously variable, and renewable continuance of pressure resistance within themselves. The cell flow technology dynamically transfers air, gas, liquid, or other substance or media, or mixture thereof, within familiar cells, with the advantage of a properly calibrated, and variable, continuance valve(s), to perform the predetermined desired function, in a present device, that shall use the technology, for a wide array of uses and devices, and employ the technology.
