  • Patent number: 11826104
    Abstract: A gonioscopic attachment can attach to a gonioscope and can include atraumatic retention elements that are configured to engage an eye to retain the gonioscope relative to the eye. The gonioscopic attachment can be configured to position the gonioscope so that at least a portion of the concave distal surface of the gonioscopic optical element is spaced apart from the eye, and/or so that the curvature of the distal surface is angularly offset from the curvature of the eye. The gonioscope can include a fixation point configured to be visible to the subject when the gonioscope is positioned on the eye. In some embodiments, the retention elements can be incorporated directly into the gonioscope. A coupling mechanism can couple the gonioscope to a lid speculum. The gonioscope can include a light pipe, which can be configured to directly light into the eye.

  • Patent number: 11732959
    Abstract: A refrigerator mirror weight monitor apparatus for weight loss assistance includes a frame and a plurality of mounting strips to selectively engage the frame with a refrigerator or pantry door. A mirror is coupled to the frame and a housing extends from the mirror to a frame top side. A display is coupled to the housing. A CPU is coupled within the housing and is in operational communication with the display. A memory, a receiver, and a battery are coupled within the housing and are in operational communication with the CPU. A sensor has a sensor housing, a weight monitor coupled within the sensor housing, and a transmitter coupled within the sensor housing. The transmitter is in operational communication with the weight monitor and in wireless communication with the receiver.

  • Patent number: 11372624
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for obtaining a content theme that includes a set of visual components and accessing control panels of a design system. The control panels are configured to provide control functions for adjusting attributes of the components. The control panels receive a selection of a first component that is linked to at least a second component in the set of visual components. An attribute of the first component is adjusted in response to detecting user interaction with a control panel. The user interaction causes adjustment of an attribute of a second component based on the adjusting of the attribute of the first component because of the second component being linked to the first component. Graphical content is created for output at a display based on the adjusted attributes of the first and second components.

  • Publication number: 20170268284
    Abstract: The spacer member being disposed at each of support points set at predetermined intervals on opposing faces of a pair of glass sheets opposing to each other when a gap formed between the pair of glass sheets is maintained under a depressurized state, wherein the spacer member includes: at least one contacting member having a first planar part on one side and a second planar part on the other side coming into contact with the respective opposing faces of the glass sheets, and a projecting piece extending integrally from the contacting member, and on the assumption that an imaginary column that circumscribes the spacer member with its height direction being vertical to the first planar part is provided, the total area of the first planar part or the total area of the second planar part is equal to or smaller than one half of a circular cross section of the column.
