Abstract: Various trash can assembly embodiments are disclosed. In some embodiments, the trash can assembly includes a body and a lid assembly. The lid assembly can include a lid, and a multicomponent trim ring. The lid assembly can be rotatably connected with the body via a hinge unit. In certain embodiments, a flange of the trim ring is guided into and/or received into the hinge unit. A translating pin of the hinge unit can engage into the flange, thereby providing a rotatable connection between the trim ring and the body. In various embodiments, the translating pin is coupled with a handle to facilitate movement of the pin by a user during engagement of the trim ring and the hinge unit. A positioner can help to position the trash can against or adjacent to a wall or other structure. The movement of both the trim ring and the lid can be dampened.

Abstract: The present invention is to provide a liposome composition, comprising: a liposome enclosed by a phospholipid bilayer, wherein the phospholipid bilayer defines a receiving space therein; nutrients provided in the receiving space, wherein the nutrients comprising glutamic acid, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and lecithin; and a targeting substance embedded in or bound to the liposome. The liposome composition disclosed herein has a phospholipid bilayer and a special targeting substance that can pass through the BBB of a living body and then release nutrients, including glutamic acid, to activate glial cells in the living body, in order for the glial cells to acquire calcium ions in the living body, the goal being to promote synaptogenesis and to modulate neuronal plasticity and synaptic transmission while enhancing the glutamic acid-glutamine cycle.

Abstract: Various embodiments of receptacle assemblies, such as trash cans, are disclosed. In some embodiments, the receptacle assembly includes a body portion with an interior space. The receptacle assembly can include a lid portion configured to move between an open position and a closed position. The receptacle assembly can include a pedal portion operably connected with the lid such that moving the pedal portion moves the lid portion between the open position and the closed position. The receptacle assembly can include a motion damper configured to dampen motion of the lid portion. The motion damper can be positioned near a front of the body portion and/or above a front portion of the pedal portion.

Abstract: Various trashcans, their coatings, and coatings for other household goods are disclosed. In certain implementations, the disclosed coatings are antimicrobial. Various methods for forming antimicrobial coatings for household goods are also disclosed. In some embodiments, the antimicrobial coating comprises a substrate and an antimicrobial agent. In certain implementations the coating can be applied to a household good where the coating leaves a substantially streak-free finish. Some embodiments pertain to protective films that can be removed from a coated household good without leaving residue.

Abstract: A memory module with power management system, and a method of operation of a memory module with power management system thereof, including: a base power plane; a power management circuit electrically connected to the base power plane; a managed power plane electrically connected to the base power plane only through the power management circuit; and a memory array electrically connected to the managed power plane.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is described for transmitting event codes from a base station to a remote location. In one embodiment, a method is described, executed by a processor within an event communication module, the method comprising receiving an encoded event code from a base station over an interface connection, selecting a first transmission method from two or more communication methods based on the received event code, encoding the event code based on the first communication method, and transmitting the encoded event code to remote location by a communication module configured to communicate using the first communication method.
