  • Publication number: 20240138754
    Abstract: A method of assessing gut health in a subject is provided. The method involves placing a device on or near the subject's skin and measuring a level of hydrogen gas emanating through the subject's skin. The device includes an electrochemical sensor capable of detecting hydrogen gas and a means of connecting the device to an apparatus having a central processing unit (CPU).

  • Patent number: 11957246
    Abstract: A chair with a transom, a seat support, a back portion, and a combined rock and recline mechanism. The combined rock and recline mechanism has front and rear rocking arrangements configured to enable the seat support and back portion to together rock generally forward and rearward from a neutral position relative to the transom, and a recline arrangement that is configured such that the seat support is in a first at-rest position relative to the back portion when the back portion is in an upright position, and such that reclining the back portion rearwardly from the upright position toward a reclined position moves the seat support upward and rearward from the first at-rest position.

  • Publication number: 20230384140
    Abstract: A system and method for detecting and analyzing fluid flow. The system includes a turbine that rotates in response to a fluid flow; a sensor that senses positional information of the turbine; a flow detector coupled to the sensor that: periodically captures and stores a value indicative of a position of the turbine; compares the value with a previously collected value; and detects flow if the value and previously collected value differ; and a flow analysis system coupled to the sensor that activates in response to a detected flow, wherein the flow analysis system collects and analyzes sensor data from the sensor.

  • Publication number: 20230309696
    Abstract: An arm assembly for a chair having a post, a first member, and an armrest. The first member is angularly adjustable relative to the post about a first axis between first angular movement limits, with a non-finite number of angular adjustment positions of the first member relative to the post. The armrest is operatively connected to the first member to translationally slide generally forward and rearward relative to the first member between first translational movement limits, with a non-finite number of translational adjustment positions of the armrest relative to the first member. The armrest is angularly adjustable relative to the first member about a second substantially upright axis between second angular movement limits, with a non-finite number of angular adjustment positions of the armrest relative to the first member.

  • Publication number: 20230274664
    Abstract: A method for making labels comprising providing a plastic substrate layer and a paper substrate layer. The paper substrate layer comprises a printed display information sheet, wherein the printed display information sheet comprises a plurality of display information tags arranged in an array. The plastic substrate layer is coupled to each of the rows of display information tags within a first portion of the display information tags to form a composite substrate row. A first line of perforations is cut into a width of the composite substrate at one or more first spaced intervals, a length of the first spaced intervals being defined by a length of the display information tags. A second line of perforations is cut into a width of the composite substrate at one or more second spaced intervals, a length of the second spaced intervals being defined by a height of the display information tags.

  • Patent number: 11536707
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for analyzing small volumes of fluidic samples, as a non-limiting example, less than twenty microliters are provided. The devices are configured to make a first sample reading, for example, measure an energy property of the fluid sample, for example, osmolality, make a second sample reading, for example, detecting the presence or concentration of one or more analytes in the fluid sample, or make both the first sample reading and the second sample reading, for example, measuring the energy property of the fluid sample as well as detecting the presence or concentration of one or more analytes in the fluid sample.

  • Patent number: 10522002
    Abstract: Systems and methods described herein are for use with a gaming table including an opening, below which is located a drop box, and that is covered by a door when the door is in a closed position. A camera is positioned relative to the door to capture an image of tokens resting on the door. A camera trigger detects when the door is being moved from a closed position to an open position, and selectively triggers the camera to capture an image of tokens resting on the door before they drop into the drop box. Processor(s) analyze images, stored in memory, of the tokens resting on the door to determine a value of each of the tokens, calculate a total value of the tokens dropped into the drop box, and attribute to dealers a subtotal of the total value of the tokens dropped into the drop box by the dealer.
