Patent number: 8707463Abstract: A garment to be positioned about one or more body portions of a person performing a physical activity comprises a garment region having a garment region elasticity and a training region having a training region elasticity, the garment region stretching a greater distance as the result of an applied force than the training region under the same applied force. The training region at least partially defines a tensioning system of a biofeedback device. The biofeedback device is configured to provide sensory cues (e.g., feedback forces) to the person performing a physical activity when the person's biomechanic position is sub-optimal, the sensory cues indicating to the person that their biomechanic position is sub-optimal and indicating to the person how to adjust their one or more body portions towards a more optimal biomechanic position. The garment may provide for training and help the person achieve optimal biomechanic motion.Type: GrantFiled: October 13, 2009Date of Patent: April 29, 2014Assignee: Samara Innovations, LLCInventor: Glennis J. Orloff

Patent number: 8191265Abstract: A multi-function razor cartridge that can be used for hair trimming and normal shaving has a housing including a retractable guard and at least one razor blade having a cutting edge. The razor cartridge also has a comb mounted to the housing that is movable by a user between a non-operable position and an operable position. When the comb is in the non-operable position the razor cartridge can be used for a normal shaving operation. As the comb is moved to the operable position for hair trimming, the guard is retracted so that it will not interfere with the passage of longer hairs between the teeth of the comb.Type: GrantFiled: May 19, 2011Date of Patent: June 5, 2012Assignee: Eveready Battery Company, Inc.Inventors: Gregg A Micinilio, Glennis J Orloff

Patent number: 7162800Abstract: A shaving assembly for simultaneously applying a shaving preparation and removing hair in a single step includes a base having an upper end, a lower end and a hollow space between the upper and lower ends, whereby the hollow space defines an opening at the upper end of the base. The shaving assembly includes a receiver for a razor, such as a cartridge receiver for a razor blade cartridge, that is connected with the base and that is disposed at the opening at the upper end of the base. The cartridge receiver has a perimeter and the opening at the upper end of the base completely surrounds the perimeter of the cartridge receiver. The hollow space of the base is adapted for containing a shaving preparation, such as a soap cake, a liquid soap, shaving cream or a body wash and may be combined with skin beneficial ingredients and/or scent.Type: GrantFiled: May 12, 2003Date of Patent: January 16, 2007Assignee: Eveready Battery Company, Inc.Inventors: Glennis J.

Patent number: 6708408Abstract: The present invention is directed to a shaving system having an indicator for indicating when the blades are becoming dull and in need of replacement. As razor blades dull, the user must exert greater force during shaving to achieve a satisfactory shave. Upon exertion of this extra force, a piston which is adjacent to the blades moves away from the blades in response to the increased forces encountered by the blades during shaving. Upon moving a sufficient distance, the piston activates a sensor, such as a potentiometer, which initiates a signal processing circuit which in turn activates an indicator, such as a light-emitting diode. The activation of the indicator is a signal to the user to replace the blades.Type: GrantFiled: August 14, 2002Date of Patent: March 23, 2004Assignee: Eveready Battery Company, Inc.Inventor: Glennis J.
