  • Publication number: 20220346507
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes a multi-configuration jewelry piece. The multi-configuration jewelry piece has a band with a first end and a second end, a first housing, and a second housing. The first housing couples to the first end. The second housing couples to the second end. Each of the first housing and the second housing define a cavity. The cavity houses a first magnet and a second magnet. The first magnets and the second magnets are configured to join the first housing to the second housing. Each of the first magnet and the second magnet has a north pole and a south pole. The north pole of the first magnet and the south pole of the second magnet face a first direction. The south pole of the first magnet and the north pole of the second magnet face a second direction opposite the first direction.

  • Patent number: 11102624
    Abstract: Approaches provide for generating an introductory text message to be delivered to a recipient when a voice-enabled communications device is used to send a message to the recipient for a first time. For example, audio input data that includes an instruction to send a text message can be received and an application can analyze the audio input data to determine an instruction to send a text message, a message body, and an intended recipient of the text message. The application can determine whether a text message has previously been sent to the intended recipient using the voice-enabled communications device or another device associated with the customer's account. In the situation where a text message has been sent, a text message is generated that includes the message body and the application causes the text message to be sent to the intended recipient.

  • Patent number: 7439744
    Abstract: An apparatus for repeatably generating electrical arcs for testing an electrical switching device, such as an arc fault circuit interrupter, includes a stationary electrode and a movable electrode that is moved along a path of travel by an electromechanical device under the control of a controller that receives data from either a current measuring device or a voltage measuring device to detect the initiation of an arc. The movable electrode is caused to first make physical contact with the stationary electrode, and then is moved away from the stationary electrode until an arc is detected. Additionally, the movable electrode may be moved towards and away from the stationary electrode according to a test profile to control the magnitude of the randomness of the arc.
