  • Publication number: 20230218378
    Abstract: A device for controlling urinary flow comprises a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet. The device comprises a valve movable between an open position in which fluid can flow from the fluid inlet to the fluid outlet and a closed position in which fluid flow is blocked between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet, and an actuator operable to move the valve between the open position and the closed position. The actuator is positioned on a first side of the fluid inletand the fluid outlet is positioned on a second, opposite side of the fluid inlet.

  • Patent number: 10966012
    Abstract: A wireless earbud (100) for in-ear use has an earbud housing (110), a loudspeaker (130), a rechargeable battery (140), a first microphone (132) and a second microphone (134). The first microphone (132) is adapted to pick up sound internally from an ear canal of a user wearing the wireless earbud. The second microphone (134) is adapted to pick up sound externally from outside of the ear canal of the user wearing the wireless earbud. Disclosed is also a storage and charging capsule (200) for at least one wireless earbud (100a, 100b). The capsule has an elongate insert part (240) having an earbud chamber (246) adapted to receive the or each wireless earbud (100a, 100b). A cover part (260) slidably receives the elongate insert part (240) and is placeable in an open position in which the cover part is retracted from the elongate insert part to allow insertion/removal of the or each wireless earbud (100a, 100b) into/from the earbud chamber (246) of the elongate insert part (240).

  • Patent number: 10236741
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of adjusting a brush holder (41) of a slip ring and brush assembly comprising at least one slip ring (50) with a radius of curvature R. With the method a test tool (80) is used to simulate a brush in the brush holder with the important difference that the test tool is able to indicate to the operator whether full contact between the slip ring and the contact surface of the test tool is obtained.

  • Patent number: 9528697
    Abstract: An energy accumulation, a distribution system and an energy accumulator that accumulates waste energy. A first energy interface is adapted for receiving first waste energy to be accumulated from a braking power reserve. A second energy interface is adapted for receiving second waste energy to be accumulated from a power generation reserve. An energy store is adapted for accumulating said received first and second waste energy. A third energy interface is adapted for providing the accumulated waste energy to at least one of an auxiliary energy exchanger and a main steam line so as to distribute the accumulated energy. A corresponding method, computer program, and computer program product and are also provided.
