  • Patent number: 9268311
    Abstract: A method for allowing a human subject having a mouth to time a predetermined duration, the method comprising: initiating a first oral sensation in the mouth of the human subject to indicate a beginning of the predetermined duration; and initiating a second oral sensation in the mouth of the human subject to indicate an end of the predetermined duration, the second oral sensation differing from the first oral sensation. Initiations of the first and second oral sensations are separated in time by substantially the predetermined duration. Also, an oral timer for performing the method and a kit including a plurality of the oral timers.

  • Patent number: 6683397
    Abstract: An electric machine includes a stator and a permanent magnet flux-concentrating rotor. The permanent magnet flux-concentrating rotor has permanent magnets and pole pieces. The permanent magnets are engaged between the pole pieces. The electric machine also has at least one magnetic-field detector that is mounted on the stator. The at least one-magnetic-field detector is mounted on the stator in such a manner as to detect a magnetic field of the permanent magnets in a location that overlaps a peripheral region of the rotor when the machine if observed on the axis of rotation of the rotor.
