Patent number: 10493264Abstract: A TENS system is provided having an electrode element design accommodating improved motion mechanics and maneuverability while maintaining electrical contact. An electrode having a soft wing construction is provided such that a multi-planar flexibility is provided during operation. A range of motion hinge provides and positions at a central area of a winged configuration a housing such that both a rotational movement and an angular movement may occur while maintaining continuous, direct contact with the TENS electronics within the housing. A selected die-cut pattern of a number of designs may form a stepped-in wing configuration may further contribute to a lateral flexibility of the wings.Type: GrantFiled: February 6, 2017Date of Patent: December 3, 2019Inventor: Joshua A. Lefkovitz

Patent number: 10420361Abstract: An improved hand operated citrus press is provided in direct operational combination with a liquid drinking vessel. The citrus press is provided removably connected to, and in fluid communication with, the liquid drinking vessel. The fluid contained within the drinking vessel can be infused with the essences from the ground or comminuted fruit from the citrus press. The fluid communication between the comminuting volume of the citrus press grinder assembly and the container allows these all natural ingredients to steep directly with the beverage, creating refreshingly flavored drinks that are as rich and natural in nutrients as its ingredients.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2013Date of Patent: September 24, 2019Assignee: O2C GALACTIC, LLCInventor: Joshua A. Lefkovitz

Publication number: 20180192673Abstract: A bottle has a top opening, a bottom opening, and a removable bottom. The removable bottom is coupleable to the bottle to seal and unseal the bottom opening and has a stem projecting outward from the removable bottom. The removable bottom is configured to be removed from the bottle and inserted into a mold such that a frozen solid is formable about the stem. The removable bottom is further configured to be coupleable to the bottle such that the frozen solid and the stem are positioned within the bottle and the bottom opening is sealed.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 11, 2018Publication date: July 12, 2018Inventor: Joshua A.

Patent number: 9771194Abstract: A drinking vessel is provided with a nesting reservoir system for containing and dispensing metered amounts of liquid beverage enhancer. Multiple metered doses can be dispensed, with multiple refilling of the drinking vessel. The concentrated enhancer is metered by the rotation of a knob that rotates a plunger mechanism into a reservoir volume chamber, with one rotation being calibrated to deliver a single dosage of liquid enhancer. All parts can be easily removed, cleaned and then re-used.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2013Date of Patent: September 26, 2017Assignee: ZING ANYTHING LLCInventor: Joshua Lefkovitz

Patent number: 9763536Abstract: An improved portable essence extractor and liquid container combination is provided in which an essence extractor having a muddling assembly that is removably connected to, and in continuous fluid communication with, a liquid dispensing container. The essence extractor and muddling assembly comprises a handle and a muddling mechanism. The muddling assembly is designed to act as a lid or be incorporated into the lid of the container providing a leak proof and compact container. The muddling assembly further has a separating mechanism limiting the intrusion of pulp or solids into the user's drink. The muddling assembly further provides for extension or retraction with a mechanical linearly adjustment mechanism. The muddling assembly therein forms the lid or is integrated with a lid of the container.Type: GrantFiled: September 7, 2012Date of Patent: September 19, 2017Inventor: Joshua A. Lefkovitz

Patent number: 8613402Abstract: An improved portable essence extractor in combination with a liquid container for the direct blending of freshly extracted edible and aromatic oils and such is provided. A portable essence extractor and liquid container combination is provided in which an essence extraction assembly may be removably connected to, and in fluid communication with, a liquid dispensing container. The container is operatively connected to the essence extraction assembly such that it is removably connects to the liquid dispensing container, as well as in fluid communication with the liquid volume. Placement of the essence extraction assembly at the top, bottom, middle, or any specific orientation or configuration should be equivalent, given the fluid communication between the comminuted foodstuff and the liquid volume such that the extraction of edible and aromatic oils can directly blend with any liquid contents of the volume.Type: GrantFiled: December 7, 2010Date of Patent: December 24, 2013Assignee: Zing Anything, LLCInventor: Joshua A.

Publication number: 20100324626Abstract: An electrically conductive and compressive wrap is provided having at least a liner of fabric that electronically emits infrared heat therapy to aid electrotherapy into a patient. The conductive wrap emits a low-level pulsed electrical signal associated with the treatment of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. The low-level pulse is provided at low amplitude where is it not physically perceived by the user, but at a level that closely mimics the electrical signal that occurs in naturally healing cartilage. The conductive silver fabric serves as an electrode that delivers optimal distribution of current around anatomically adapted, interchangeable and wearable therapy pads for interchangeable use with the therapy system of the present invention. Each pad includes an electrical insulative liner that keeps current applied to the desired area, and a compression cover to simultaneously deliver a therapeutic amount of compressive force to the area.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 23, 2010Publication date: December 23, 2010Inventor: Joshua A.
