Abstract: A dispensing unit for personal care products and personal protective equipment includes one or more dispensing assemblies contained within a single housing. The dispensing unit may contain dispensing assemblies that independently dispense two different types of products. Each dispensing assembly includes an actuator that mechanically injects a time delay between dispensings. Products are bundled together with support structures that are removed when the bundles are placed into a dispensing assembly.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to integrated systems, methods and apparatuses for assisting individuals in managing acute life-threatening conditions. A system in accordance with the current disclosure may comprise an electronic circuit configured to be attached to a container of a medication and one or more devices in communication with the electronic circuit in a private network. In an aspect, the one or more devices may work in concert to determine the safety level of an individual based on predetermined usage settings. In some aspects, the system may be configured to determine whether a medication would expire before its manufactured expiry date. In another aspect, the system may assist an individual in locating a medication. In a further aspect, the system may determine whether an individual is having an anaphylactic reaction. In some aspects, the system may detect a known allergen and alert the individual.

Abstract: System and associated method for capturing, preserving, and transporting a bodily fluid, including a collection jar having a base body, a lid body, and a cartridge having a plunger therein and disposed in the lid body, the cartridge housing a preservative when the plunger is in a first plunger position and permitting a release of the preservative into an internal cavity of the collection jar when the plunger is in a second plunger position, and a transportation packaging having an outer container, at least one insulation foam support, at least one phase change material bottle, and at least one collection jar holding tray, where the phase change material bottle has an indented portion corresponding to an indented portion of the collection jar holding tray, and where the collection jar is configured for placement in the at least one collection jar holding tray during transportation.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a foldable vehicle and to several exemplary components thereof, which may comprise a hinge cassette and a rear wheel brake assembly among other components. In some examples, the vehicle has a folded configuration and an unfolded configuration, where in the folded configuration, the at least one rear wheel nests within the at least one opening.

Abstract: System and associated method for capturing, preserving, and transporting a bodily fluid, including a collection jar having a base body, a lid body, and a plunger, the plunger housing a preservative when in a first plunger position and permitting a release of the preservative into an internal cavity of the collection jar when in a second plunger position, where the plunger moves from the first plunger position to the second plunger position by pushing the plunger into the internal cavity, and a transportation packaging having an outer container, at least one vacuum insulated panel, at least one phase change material bottle, and at least one collection jar holding tray, where the phase change material bottle has an indented portion corresponding to an indented portion of the collection jar holding tray, where the collection jar is configured for placement in the at least one collection jar holding tray during transportation.

Abstract: An interchangeable electronic lock mechanism provides selective access to a motor controlled latching system including a motorized pin to lock and unlock a knob assembly. The lock mechanism may be used to replace key operated locking cores, on the exterior of a storage unit, with a plug and optional adapter inserted into a remaining shell housing, and a driver to control access to a storage unit. Manual rotation of the knob activates the drive assembly to control access to the storage unit. An optional break away security feature in the knob inhibits unauthorized unlatching of the lock. When the lock is unlatched, the knob rotates the drive assembly including the plug and adapter within the shell housing, and in turn, activates the driver to operate the lock assembly in the storage unit. An optional modular chassis assembly includes a removable array of components for testing, maintenance and repair.

Abstract: A portable liquid dispensing device which includes a liquid cartridge containing a prefilled desired liquid supported within the dispensing device. A dispensing mechanism is positioned within the device for engagement with the liquid cartridge for dispensing a desired amount of liquid from the liquid cartridge to an outlet exiting the device. An actuator button is also provided for actuating the dispensing mechanism and dispensing the desired amount of liquid through the outlet of the dispensing device. The dispensing mechanism includes a central shaft with a first end engaged with the actuator button, a second end is positioned adjacent the outlet, and a plunger assembly is supported on the central shaft intermediate the first and second ends for substantially sealed engagement with an internal surface of the liquid cartridge and central shaft to move the plunger assembly and liquid toward the outlet upon actuation of the actuator button.

Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed of a radiator temperature control apparatus for controlling the heat output of a radiator. The radiator temperature control apparatus may include an airtight enclosure around the air outlet of the radiator air vent, an adjustable opening in the airtight enclosure controlled by an actuator, and a controller connected to the actuator. In operation, the controller can be configured to open the adjustable opening in the airtight enclosure allowing air in the radiator to be expelled through the adjustable opening, thereby allowing steam to enter the radiator, and heat the room. The controller can be configured to close the adjustable opening, stopping air from being expelled from the radiator, thereby stopping additional steam from entering the radiator.
