  • Publication number: 20260123684
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a non-combustible aerosol provision system and consumables and aerosol generators for non-combustible aerosol provision systems. In various implementations, the non-combustible aerosol provision system comprises a control device that includes an outer housing defining a receiving chamber, a power source and a control component, an aerosol generator coupled to the control device, and an atomizer-free consumable that includes a substrate for engagement with the aerosol generator. The consumable is configured to be removably coupled with one or both of the control device and the aerosol generator. The aerosol generator defines a vaporization chamber and is configured to heat the substrate to generate an aerosol.

  • Patent number: 12421703
    Abstract: A sink divider is detachably attachable across a sink to form a first and second compartment of the sink. The sink divider has an expandable bladder that is pressurized by a pressurization apparatus to press the bladder against the wall of the sink to create the two compartments. The pressurization apparatus includes a plunger that plunges fluid from a pressure receptacle into the bladder. A pressure valve may be fluidly coupled with the interior of the bladder to release fluid when the pressure in the bladder exceeds a threshold pressure. The sink divider may also have a pair of retainer arms that are spring deployed to press a retainer stop against the wall of the sink to further stabilize and support the sink divider within the sink.

  • Patent number: 12342858
    Abstract: A security device for an aerosol generation device includes an engagement assembly configured to releasably engage a portion of the aerosol generation device and a locking assembly operably coupled to the engagement assembly. The locking assembly is configured to have a locked state in which the engagement assembly is affixed to the portion of the aerosol generation device, and an unlocked state in which the engagement assembly is released from being affixed to the portion of the aerosol generation device. The engagement assembly is further configured to perform a benefit denial function responsive to removal of the security device from the aerosol generation device.

  • Patent number: 12234774
    Abstract: An ignition and combustion assist system and method comprising a plasma igniter and electronic driver unit for use with gas turbine engines operating under low air densities, reduced voltage conditions and overall pressure ratios of 3:1 to 7:1. The plasma igniter has an inner chamber housing a centrally positioned and electrically isolated electrode attached to an electrical lead, driver unit, and AC or DC power supply. The electrode features a corner positioned near an outlet end of the igniter, where a plasma arc ignites a fuel-air mixture creating a flame extending into a primary burn region of a combustor of the gas turbine. The driver unit is in two embodiments and configured with low-cost microsecond voltage wave time periods or energy-efficient nano-second pulses. The method uses the plasma igniter and the electronic driver units described herein separately with other components or together.

  • Patent number: 11892955
    Abstract: System and method for analyzing CXL flits at read bypass detection logic to identify bypass memory read requests and transmitting the identified bypass memory read requests over a read request bypass path directly to a transaction/application layer of the CXL memory controller, wherein the read request bypass path does not include an arbitration/multiplexing layer and a link layer of the CXL memory controller, thereby reducing the latency inherent in a CXL memory controller.
