Abstract: A power supply unit for use with one or more motorized architectural-structure coverings is disclosed. In one example of an embodiment, the power supply unit includes one or more features to simplify installation. For example, in one embodiment, the power supply unit does not require an installer to access an internal compartment of the power supply unit. In addition, and/or alternatively, in one embodiment, a cable extending between the power supply unit and the motorized architectural-structure covering include same gender connectors for facilitating easier installation and reducing installation errors. In one embodiment, the power supply unit includes a power connector accessible through an outer surface thereof for receiving line-voltage and a plurality of low-voltage connectors accessible through the outer surface for supplying low-voltage to a plurality of motorized architectural-structure coverings.

Abstract: A buckle closure assembly having a male part and a female part that snap-fittingly cooperate with one another. The male part and the female part selectively interact with one another along an operating direction to connect and disconnect alternate portions of a strap system. One or both of the male part and the female part include an offset or a standoff that extends from the respective part in a crossing direction relative to the operating direction to maintain a spacing between the buckle assembly and adjacent anatomy and/or clothing.

Abstract: Generally, the present invention relates to medical devices and more particularly to an computer controlled bottle system for example, for a preterm infant oral feeding. An embodiment of the invention is directed to a method for delivering nutritional fluids orally to a preterm infant comprising the steps of measuring the infant's inspired breath to breath amplitude, measuring the infant's intraoral sucking pressure, establishing threshold values for infant's inspired breath to breath amplitude and infant's intraoral sucking pressure, and delivering nutritional fluids to the infant only when the infant's inspired breath to breath amplitude and infant's intraoral sucking pressure both simultaneously satisfy their respective threshold values.
