  • Patent number: 11316311
    Abstract: Functional modules of a modular system include a magnet and at least two conductors, at least one of which is movable into the functional module and at least one of which is formed of ferrous material. The movable conductor is biased against movement into the functional module and is positioned such that it contacts a power delivery conductor before the other conductor of the functional module contacts another power delivery conductor. The magnet provides attraction between the functional module and a power delivery module that assists in overcoming the bias against movement of the movable conductor into the functional module.

  • Publication number: 20220110822
    Abstract: A garment provides therapeutic pressure to the body of a wearer in response to a two-factor authentication system. The garment includes reversibly inflatable chambers configured to press against the body of a wearer. The garment includes a pump fluidly connected to the chambers and a controller. The controller sends an inflation signal to the pump to inflate the chambers and a deflation signal to the pump to deflate the chambers. The garment includes touch-sensitive fabric. In some implementations, the controller sends the inflation signal to the pump in response to one or more touches to the touch responsive fabric. In some implementations, the controller sends the inflation signal to the pump in response to biometric data.

  • Patent number: 11070035
    Abstract: Functional modules of a modular system include two or more ferrous conductors, each conductor having a separate magnet associated therewith that is electrically isolated from other conductors and magnets. Circuitry within functional modules is electrically connected to the ferrous conductors. The ferrous conductors of the functional modules are configured to be magnetically attracted to, contact, and receive power from ferrous conductors of a power delivery module.

  • Publication number: 20090212131
    Abstract: A fuel injector includes a solenoid, an armature, and an axially displaceable valve part which is enclosed by a plastic extrusion coat, an RFID chip being irreversibly attached to the plastic extrusion coat at an advantageous position. This RFID chip initially has no data content. During the production process specific data are written on the RFID chip, and later in the production process the specific data are read and evaluated by a writing and reading unit. Specific steps are carried out during the production process, based on the evaluated specific data.
