  • Patent number: 8785819
    Abstract: A heating device includes a housing, a thermally conductive receptacle, a cover, a heating element, a temperature sensor, a user interface and a power source. The thermally conductive receptacle is disposed within the housing and is accessible through an opening. The thermally conductive receptacle is sized to receive, completely contain and heat a container containing a product used in sexual activities. The cover is attached to the housing and is disposed over the opening to provide access to the thermally conductive receptacle and enclose the container containing the product. The heating element is disposed within the housing, and is connected to the thermally conductive receptacle. The temperature sensor is disposed within the housing and is connected to the heating element or the thermally conductive receptacle. The controller is disposed within the housing and is electrically connected to the heating element, the temperature sensor, and the user interface.

  • Patent number: 7070541
    Abstract: An educational apparatus is traversed horizontally for the purpose of increasing learning capabilities is pictured. The apparatus is in the design of a figure eight lying on its side longitudinally and laterally intersected at its center by a column and row of straight tracks 30. The apparatus is comprised of tracks, straight 30, arced 40, and curved 50, contiguously connected to one another and an octagon shaped distinct end coupler 96 used as a bridge to connect the non-contiguous ends of tracks, straight 30, arced 40, and curved 50. The distinct end coupler 96 is located in the center of the apparatus. The distinct end coupler 96 is not only a structure used to connect the non-contiguous ends of tracks but also a station from which a human receives instruction prior to traversing the apparatus and a portal used by a walking human to traverse from track to track in the proper direction and sequence, important for basic brain processing methods.
