Abstract: A door chime assembly with a transformer assembly mounted within an electrical box and proximately to a chime. The transformer assembly including a transformer operably coupled to a bracket. The transformer being insertable into the electrical box such that the bracket and electrical box cooperate to electrically isolate the transformer from the chime. The electrical box having mounting features for securing the door chime assembly in existing and/or new construction.

Abstract: A grille having a frame defining a grille opening and for receiving a plurality of first louvers and a plurality of second louvers. The first plane and second plane are separated by a predetermined offset depth to define a gap between adjacent first louvers and second louvers along an axis perpendicular to the plane of the frame. The first louvers can be spaced apart to define a first gap between adjacent first louvers. A second louver can be positioned at the second plane to align with the horizontal gap between adjacent first louvers such that the first and second louvers cooperate to obscure viewing through the grille at least along the axis perpendicular to the plane of the frame.

Abstract: A lighting module having at least a semitransparent cover and at least one light emitting diode oriented to emit light through the semitransparent cover. Each light emitting diode is positioned a minimum distance from an inner surface of the semitransparent cover.

Abstract: A ventilation assembly having a main housing and a removable cartridge assembly that can be positioned within the main assembly. The main housing can be mounted within an aperture in a wall or ceiling and, in certain examples, can be connected to ductwork and electrical wiring within the wall or ceiling. The cartridge assembly can include a retention feature that can be releasably engaged to the main housing to retain the cartridge assembly within the main housing. The cartridge assembly can include ventilation components such as the motor, fan wheel, capacitor, controller and various combinations thereof. The cartridge assembly can be removed from the main housing by disengaging the retention feature and replaced with a new cartridge assembly or modified elsewhere before being reinserted into the main housing, thereby permitting repairing or upgrading of the ventilation assembly without removing the main housing from the wall or ceiling.

Abstract: A process for forming a free standing antiperspirant or deodorant solid stick product using particulate and fluid materials that are combined by means of amalgamation, homogenization, compaction and extrusion at a temperature below the melting temperature of said product and extruded by mechanically working the particulate and fluid materials.

Abstract: A low residue antiperspirant and/or deodorant composition in the form of an anhydrous, surfactant-free and antiseptic alcohol-free suspension exhibiting a syneresis of less than 8% which is made by combining selected amounts of: (a) a cyclomethicone (and) dimethicone crosspolymer made with an ?Si—H containing polysiloxane and an alpha, omega-diene of formula CH2?CH(CH2)xCH?CH2 which crosspolymer has a viscosity in the range of 50,000–3,000,000 centipoise, preferably with a nonvolatiles content of 10–14% in cyclomethicone; (b) polyethylene beads having a density in the range of 0.91–0.98 grams/cm3 and a particle size in the range of 5–40 microns; (c) a volatile silicone; (d) an emollient (or a mixture of two or more emollients) which may include a non-volatile silicone and an additional amount of a volatile silicone; and (e) an effective amount of an antiperspirant active material in an amount sufficient to have an antiperspirant and/or a deodorant effect.

Abstract: A low residue antiperspirant and/or deodorant composition in the form of an anhydrous, surfactant-free and antiseptic alcohol-free suspension exhibiting a syneresis of less than 8% is disclosed which comprises: (a) a dimethicone/vinyldimethicone crosspolymer composition made by reacting a polymethylhydrogensiloxane with an alpha, omega-divinylpolydimethyl siloxane for which the dimethicone/vinyldimethicone crosspolymer composition is used at a concentration of 0.5–10% in cyclomethicone; (b) polyethylene beads having a density in the range of 0.91–0.98 grams/cm3 and a particle size in the range of 5–40 microns, wherein the polyethylene beads are used in an amount of at least 2% by weight based on the total weight of the composition; (c) a volatile silicone; (d) an emollient or mixture of two or more emollients; and (e) an effective amount of an antiperspirant active material.

Abstract: In one general aspect, a system to control and monitor an electrical system includes a switchgear housing unit connected to the electrical system that includes a switchgear mechanism for controlling a connection within the electrical system and electronic controls for monitoring and controlling the switchgear mechanism, where the electronic controls are embedded within the switchgear housing unit to form a single, self-contained unit.
