Abstract: A hair brushing or combing device, a nasal washing device, and a beverage ionizing device, comprising a metal anode being touched by the user; a cathode contacting with the liquid; an electronic circuit; and a switch operable to provide electrical potential to the metal anode, the switch also operable to cause activation of an ionic function.

Abstract: A method and system for managing of an apparatus comprising a plurality of series produced technical hardware components over a life-cycle are disclosed. The method comprises assigning first identification data to the apparatus, assigning individual second identification data to all, or almost all, of said technical hardware components, and storing the first and second identification data in at least one of an external database and in a data storage in one or several of said apparatus and the technical hardware components. The first and second identification data provide a unique identification for each of said apparatus and technical hardware components, and each of said first and second identification data also comprises a plurality of identification data items related to different identification dimensions. This identification data may then be used for post-production service, upgrade, replacement and/or repair operations related to the apparatus and/or the technical hardware components.

Abstract: A cleansing device includes a toothbrush body having a handle on a first end and brush bristles on a second end. The second end movable with respect to the first end. A vibrating device is enabled to vibrate the brush bristle end to produce sonic vibrations. A metal anode is the handle and exposed on an outside of the handle and an cathode is positioned near or at the brush bristle end. An electronic circuit substantially within the handle has a mode switch operable to provide electrical potential to the metal anode, the mode switch also operable to cause activation of the vibrating device. A user using the toothbrush completes an electrical circuit to enable ions to flow from the cathode.

Abstract: A razor for shaving hairs has an ionizing device that produces ions during a shaving operation of the razor powered by a single battery. The battery can be a 1.5 Volt button battery to provide power to an ion generator that boost the voltage to about 9 Volts.

Abstract: A clipping display device for use on hats, comprising a base and a clip for suspending the device along the brim of a hat. The device further comprises a top or billboard element attached to the base for displaying advertisement, logos, messages and other visual indicia. A neck element may be provided to connect the billboard element to said base. A front panel provided at a front end of the base balances the device and may also incorporate visual indicia. The device may optionally include interlocking elements for stringing multiple clips for forming a larger or more extensive message.

Abstract: A lid is disclosed that is configured to be mounted on a food container having a rim bounding an opening of the food container. The lid has a top cover wall with a through opening and an outer periphery, a one-piece eating utensil being located in the opening of the top cover wall and connected to the top cover wall by a plurality of discrete, spaced apart, frangible connecting elements. The one-piece utensil has a food engaging portion and an integral handle portion, the handle portion being configured to be gripped by a hand of a user. The length of the one-piece eating utensil, measured from an end of the food engaging portion to an opposite end of the handle portion, is less than a distance between opposite sides of the periphery of the top cover wall such that the one-piece eating utensil fits entirely within the periphery of the top cover wall. A side wall extends downwardly from the periphery of the top cover wall and is configured to engage the rim portion of the food container.
