Abstract: A spa tub includes a spa shell configured to contain a volume of water; a circulation system configured to create a flow of the water to and from the spa shell; and a testing system configured to acquire water samples from the volume of water and to perform water quality tests on the water samples. The testing system includes a housing; a circulation pump disposed within the housing configured to acquire the water samples from the volume of water; a replaceable reagent cartridge removably received within the housing; and a water test assembly disposed within the housing. The water test assembly is configured to receive the water samples acquired by the circulation pump and a reagent from the reagent cartridge. The water test assembly is configured to mix the water samples and the reagent and to perform the water quality tests on the mixed water samples and reagent.

Abstract: Disclose herein are embodiments related to a system made up of a lighting fixture and a radio frequency detection device. The lighting fixture having a secure housing and at least one power connection, and the radio frequency detection device being designed to operatively connect to the at least one power connection device within the lighting fixture.

Abstract: A projection system for projecting sewing patterns onto a surface comprises a vertical beam, a projector, and a cart. The vertical beam includes (a) a floor engaging portion at a bottom end and (b) a ceiling engaging portion at a top end, the ceiling engaging portion being vertically movable with respect to the floor engaging portion such that, when in use, the floor engaging portion and the ceiling engaging portion engage a floor and a ceiling, respectively, to anchor the projection system adjacent the surface. The projector is configured to receive data representing the sewing patterns and to project the sewing patterns. The cart is operably attached to the projector and slidably attached to the vertical beam, wherein sliding the cart vertically adjusts a height of the projector above the surface.

Abstract: An illuminated paver comprises a body including a top part having a decorative outer surface and a separate bottom part attached to the top part. The body houses a light source to be electrically connected to an associated external power source. An inner surface of at least one of the top part and the bottom part includes a plurality of strengthening ribs extending between the top and bottom parts of the body. The strengthening ribs are configured to reflect light emitted from the light source so as to randomly disperse light passing through the decorative outer surface. An electrical cord wrap is provided on an outer surface the bottom part and includes a plurality of cord receiving recesses.

Abstract: A swaging system includes a unique cartridge containing a nut and ferrule combination. The cartridge or cartridges are fed to a loading station where the nut and ferrules are removed from the cartridge, properly oriented or aligned on the tube end, and pre-swaged to the tube end. System also includes a kit that includes a tube bender, a cutting station, a deburring station, and a blower/vacuum chip collector.

Abstract: A pumping device is used with a pneumatic tire mounted on a tire rim to keep the pneumatic tire from becoming underinflated. The pumping device includes a housing attached to the tire rim, a dynamic mass mechanically confined to rotational movement relative to the housing and the tire rim, the dynamic mass moving in response to a minimum angular velocity of the tire rim and pumping ambient air into the housing, an intake port for ambient air to enter the housing, and an exhaust port for forcing pressurized air into a tire cavity of the pneumatic tire for restoring air loss from an inflation volume within the tire cavity.

Abstract: A pumping device is used with a pneumatic tire mounted on a tire rim to keep the pneumatic tire from becoming underinflated. The pumping device includes a housing attached to the tire rim, a dynamic mass mechanically confined to linear movement relative to the housing and the tire rim, the dynamic mass moving in response to shock loads transferred from the tire rim to the dynamic mass and pumping ambient air into the housing, an intake port for ambient air to enter the housing, and an exhaust port for forcing pressurized air into a tire cavity of the pneumatic tire for restoring air loss from an inflation volume within the tire cavity.

Abstract: A pumping device is used with a pneumatic tire mounted on a tire rim to keep the pneumatic tire from becoming underinflated. The pumping device includes a housing attached to the tire rim, a dynamic mass mechanically confined to radial movement relative to the housing and the tire rim, an intake port for ambient to enter the housing, and an exhaust port for forcing air into a tire cavity of the pneumatic tire for restoring air loss from an inflation volume within the tire cavity.
