Patent number: 12035695Abstract: A pet feeding device (10) for supplying and opening filled containers (12) has at least one stamp for indenting and/or bending an edge (46) of the container (12). In a method for supplying and opening filled containers an edge of the container is indented and/or bent before opening about at least one substantially horizontal axis.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2020Date of Patent: July 16, 2024Assignee: SMARTPETCARE AGInventors: Markus Dachs, Stefan Stalder, Lorenz Klauser

Publication number: 20240148149Abstract: A locking mechanism for a smart automated chair is provided. The chair is operable to move a seat between a horizontal seating position and a vertical downward standing position. When moving to the horizontal seating position, in some instances a user may sit on the seat before it has reached a locked horizontal position, this can increase a risk of the seat slipping or otherwise releasing to a downward vertical position, causing risk of inconvenience to a user, the locking mechanism herein addresses this issue.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 7, 2023Publication date: May 9, 2024Inventors: Mark Kapij, Jose Chavarria, Lorenz Klauser, Stefan Stalder

Patent number: 11554045Abstract: For processing eye tissue using a pulsed laser beam (L), an ophthalmological device includes a projection optical unit for the focused projection of the laser beam (L) into the eye tissue, and a scanner system upstream of the projection optical unit for the beam-deflecting scanning of the eye tissue with the laser beam (L) in a scanning movement (s?) performed over a scanning angle along a scanning line(s). The projection optical unit is tilted about an axis of rotation (q) running perpendicularly to a plane defined by the scanning line(s) and the optical axis (o) of the projection optical unit, the tilting of the projection optical unit tilting the scanning line (s) in said plane. Tilting of the scanning line(s) enables a displacement—dependent on the scanning angle—of the focus of the laser pulses projected into the eye tissue without vertical displacement of the projection optical unit.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 2020Date of Patent: January 17, 2023Assignee: SIE AG Surgical Instrument EngineeringInventors: Christian Rathjen, Hartmut Kanngiesser, Vincent Ducry, Lorenz Klauser
