Abstract: Devices associated with on-body analyte sensor units are disclosed. These devices include any of packaging and/or loading systems, applicators and elements of the on-body sensor units themselves. Also, various approaches to connecting electrochemical analyte sensors to and/or within associated on-body analyte sensor units are disclosed. The connector approaches variously involve the use of unique sensor and ancillary element arrangements to facilitate assembly of separate electronics assemblies and sensor elements that are kept apart until the end user brings them together.

Abstract: A toy recycling truck that shapes and extrudes formable material is described. A formable material is fed into a first opening, or door, on the top of the truck and is extruded out of a second opening at the back of the truck. The formable material is fed into a molding extruder having a molding device and an expeller. The molding device includes a first cylindrical roller and a second cylindrical roller with inset molds that are adjacent and that turn toward each other so that the formable material fills the molds with pushed into the molding device. A three dimensional figure is released from the molds and synchronized to be extruded by an expeller. The expeller includes a paddle wheel with one or more paddles that extrudes the three dimensional shape molded from the formable material.

Abstract: A multi-directional tower fan includes a base for supporting the fan on a surface, a first housing attached to the base, a second housing rotatably attached to the first housing, a single elongate rotating blower extending within both the first and second housing and a motor for rotating the blower. The first and second housings both have an inlet opening, an outlet opening and an interior chamber. The interior chambers of the housings are axially aligned with each other and the blower extends from the interior chamber of the first housing to the interior chamber of the second housing to simultaneously force air out through the outlet openings of the first and second housings. By rotating the second housing with respect to the first housing, the air being forced out of the outlet opening of the first housing may be directed in a different direction than the air being forced out of the outlet opening of the second housing.
