Abstract: A method/system monitors and controls operational aspects of devices in a space, for example a living, office or other human-occupied space or storage space, in a building, such as turning lights on/off, raising/lowering blinds, maintaining or changing temperature, and other operational aspects. Sensors monitor energy usage of the devices in the space, and a controller/engine compares the monitored energy usage with reference energy usage to validate whether the devices are performing as expected. A temperate set-versus-anomaly detection technique may use temperature set point adjustments by a user (during a timeframe) to determine whether an anomaly exists that requires changes in the central plant of the building.

Abstract: A tank for a heat exchanger includes an extruded tank section having a generally constant extrusion profile extending in a longitudinal direction from a first tank end to a second tank end. A first planar end cap is joined to the extruded tank section near the first tank end, and a second planar end cap is joined to the extruded tank section near the second tank end. Together, the extruded tank section and first and second end caps can at least partially define an internal tank volume. The first and second planar end caps are both arranged at non-perpendicular angles to the longitudinal direction.

Abstract: An absorbent article having at least one disposal fastener. The disposal fastener includes a plurality of hook fasteners that are integral with a material of the absorbent article. The disposal fastener is configured to engage and hold a portion of the garment-facing surface of the absorbent article and secure the article in a compact configuration for disposal after the article has been used.

Abstract: An insect light trap generally including a housing, a lamp for attracting insects mounted in the housing, a first space for receiving a first insect trap, and a second space contained in the housing. The second space has received therein a module including a second insect trap. The second insect trap includes an advanceable adhesive surface for trapping the insects and a motor to advance the adhesive surface.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide an insect trap for trapping insects, the insect trap comprising one or more serviceable parts, the insect trap being movable between a first configuration for trapping insects, and a second configuration for servicing of the one or more serviceable parts. The insect trap is arranged so that the position of the one or more serviceable parts in the first configuration differs from the position of the one or more serviceable parts in the second configuration.

Abstract: A rodent trap comprising a trigger arranged to be triggered by a rodent, a kill mechanism arranged to kill a rodent in response to the trigger being triggered by the rodent, a trapdoor positioned adjacent to the kill mechanism, having a closed position and an open position, and a storage area positioned on the other side of the trapdoor to the kill mechanism. The rodent trap is arranged such that when a rodent is killed by the kill mechanism, the rodent corpse passes through the trapdoor into the storage area.

Abstract: The invention relates to environmentally stable organic pigment which is modified by a polymer and characterized by a change of Delta E (dE) of less than 5 after 2000 h simulated accelerated weathering measured according to DIN EN ISO 11341 in silicone paint.

Abstract: An apparatus for measuring the pressure of a two-wheeler tire comprises: an adapter component which comprises a joining mechanism to connect the apparatus to a valve of the two-wheeler tire; a valve opener to open the valve so that in a state connected to the valve pressurized air flows from the two-wheeler tire through the valve into the until the which can be connected to the adapter component; and a sensor component which can be connected to the adapter component. The sensor component comprises a pressure measurement device to measure the pressure in the apparatus and a transmitter to wirelessly transmit information corresponding to the measured pressure.
