Publication number: 20210322654Abstract: A breast pump (100) is provided comprising a vacuum pump (120) which is configured to be operated at different vacuum profile settings, a controller (140) configured to control an operation of the vacuum pump (120) based on the different vacuum profile settings, and a breast fullness estimator (150) configured to estimate a fullness of a breast based on a duration of a milk expression session. The controller (140) is configured to select a vacuum profile setting based on the breast fullness estimation of the breast fullness estimator (150). Hence, the efficiency of the breast pump is increased as the operation of the vacuum pump is adapted to the estimated breast fullness.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 10, 2019Publication date: October 21, 2021Inventors: Yannyk Parulian Julian BOURQUIN, Lili-Marjan BROCKHUIS, Lucja El?bieta SEGAAR, Nicole Petronella Martien HAEX

Patent number: 10653104Abstract: The invention provides a method of selecting the suitability of a lighting device (100) for use in cheese lighting, the method comprising (a) defining a normalization factor (k) for a spectral power distribution (SPD(?)) of lighting device light (101) of said lighting device (100) in a wavelength range of 380-780 nm, (b) defining the lighting device (100) suitable for use in cheese lighting when a cheese damage function value (CDFV) is equal to or below 2, wherein the cheese damage function value (CDFV) is defined as: (I) wherein: (II) wherein y (?) is a 2-degree color matching function, and wherein DF(?)=1 for 380 nm??<410, and wherein for 410???780: (III). CDFV = k × ? ? ? SPD ? ( ? ) · DF ? ( ? ) · ?? ( I ) k = 100 ? ? ? SPD ? ( ? ) · y _ ? ( ? ) · ?? ( II ) DF ? ( ? ) = 0.95 × e - ( ? - 410 22 ) 2 + 0.Type: GrantFiled: July 12, 2017Date of Patent: May 19, 2020Assignee: SIGNIFY HOLDING B.V.Inventors: Simone Helena Maria Poort, Anna Louise Bouwkamp-Wijnoltz, Franz Engelen, Nicole Petronella Martien Haex, Cornelis Teunissen

Publication number: 20150122131Abstract: In a method for grinding coffee beans (5), the beans (5) are ground off bit by bit by applying a device (1) comprising two tools (20; 40, 42), wherein one of the tools (20; 40, 42) is a grinding tool (20) having an abrasive surface (21), wherein the beans (5) and the abrasive surface (21) are made to contact each other and to perform a relative movement with respect to each other, and wherein another of the tools (20; 40, 42) is a bean delimiting tool (40, 42) having a surface (44) against which the beans (5) are retained during the time that they are in contact with the abrasive surface (21). By grinding off coffee beans (5) instead of crushing coffee beans (5) in a conventional manner, it is achieved that the grinding process can be performed at a relatively high speed and a relatively low torque.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 23, 2013Publication date: May 7, 2015Inventors: Mart Kornelis-Jan Te Velde, Jan Frederik Suijver, Job Lipsch, Johan Marra, Jeroen Alphons Pikkkemaat, Karel Johannes Adrianus Van Den Aker, Gerben Kooljman, Nicolaas Petrus Willard, Nicole Petronella Martien Haex, Jeroen Herman Lammers, Zhuangxiong Huang
