Publication number: 20240050209Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods of the present disclosure are generally directed to facilitating user control of high-pressure flow of liquid for oral irrigation carried out as part of personal dental care. Such control over high-pressure flow may reduce the likelihood of errant spray of liquid outside of the user's mouth (e.g., onto mirrors, countertop surfaces, or the user's clothes). Such improved control over errant spraying may reduce the potential for frustration and, thus, may promote maintaining oral irrigation as part of a personal dental care routine. Further, or instead, through facilitating user control of high-pressure flow of liquid, the devices, systems, and methods of the present disclosure may improve the effectiveness and efficiency of self-administered oral irrigation in promoting a user's oral hygiene.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 14, 2023Publication date: February 15, 2024Inventors: Jonathan Henry FRATTI, Eric Glenn HARSH, Steffany V. TRAN, Nathan A. HERRMANN, Simon J. M. ENEVER, William MAY, Sean James WILSON, James C. KRAUSE, Maxwell R. WOOD-LEE, Paul B. KOH, Jonathan Pradeep AUSTIN

Patent number: 11780105Abstract: A razor handle. The razor handle can have a main body and a pivoting head pivotally coupled with the main body about a first axis of rotation. A severable benefit delivery member can extend from a main body connection on the main body to a pivoting head connection on the pivoting head, the benefit delivery member providing a first biasing torque on the pivoting head to affect an angular deflection about the first axis of rotation of the pivoting head relative to the main body. A spring member can extend from a spring-main-body connection on the main body to a spring-pivoting-head connection on the pivoting head, the spring member applying a second biasing torque to affect an angular deflection about the first axis of rotation of the pivoting head relative to the main body.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 2021Date of Patent: October 10, 2023Assignee: The Gillette Company LLCInventors: Ashok Bakul Patel, Steven Francis Quigley, Jin Kyung Kim, Eric Glenn Siegmann, Zachary Oliver Veugen, Regan Marie Fiascone, Steven Michael Bourque, Matthew Frank Murgida

Patent number: 11239038Abstract: Disclosed herein are efficient mechanical fuse devices that are capable of functioning at high current levels. These devices comprise mechanical features configured such that the fuse devices have a non-triggered state, which allows current to flow through the device, and a triggered state, which does not allow current to flow through the device. In some embodiments, the devices are configured such that a certain pre-determined current level flowing through the device will generate a sufficient electromagnetic field to cause the mechanical elements to transition the fuse device into the triggered state and thus interrupt a connected electrical circuit, device or system. In some embodiments, these devices can also comprise hermetically sealed components. In some embodiments, the fuse devices can comprise pyrotechnic features.Type: GrantFiled: February 6, 2018Date of Patent: February 1, 2022Assignee: Gigavac, LLCInventors: Murray Stephan McTigue, Bernard Victor Bush, Eric Glenn Hufstedler, Brent James Swartzentruber, Michael Henry Molyneux, Daniel Sullivan

Patent number: 11215686Abstract: Electrochemical devices with metal casings have been considered incompatible with nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy because the oscillating magnetic fields (“rf fields”) responsible for excitation and detection of NMR active nuclei do not penetrate metals. According to the present invention, rf fields can still efficiently penetrate into nonmetallic layers of electrochemical cells (such as a coin cell battery configuration) provided the magnetic field is oriented tangentially to the electrochemical cell electrodes in a “skimming” orientation. As an example, noninvasive high field in situ 7Li and 19F NMR of an unmodified commercial off-the-shelf rechargeable coin cell was demonstrated using a traditional external NMR coil setup. The in operando NMR measurements revealed that irreversible physical changes accumulate at the anode during electrochemical cycling.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 2021Date of Patent: January 4, 2022Assignees: National Technology & Engineering Solutions of Sandia, LLC, ABQMR, Inc.Inventors: Eric Glenn Sorte, Mark S.
