    Abstract: An aerosol generating device for generating an aerosol from aerosol-generating material. The device has a magnetic field generator with an inductor coil configured to generate a varying magnetic field. The device also has a heating element that is heatable by penetration with the varying magnetic field. The heating element defines a heating zone configured to receive at least a portion of an article including aerosol-generating material. The heating element is fixed relative to the inductor coil. The inductor coil encircles a first portion of the heating zone such that the first portion is heated at least predominantly by inductive heating. A second portion of the heating zone is free from being encircled by any inductor coil so that the second portion of the heating zone is heated predominantly by conductive heating.

  • Exercise machine arm with single-handed adjustment
    Patent number: 12239874
    Abstract: An exercise device includes a resistance unit having a connecting gear. It further includes a cable. It further includes an arm that routes the cable to an actuator. The arm is rotatable relative to the resistance unit about the connecting gear, the arm having a central axis. The arm includes a control that mechanically disengages a locking mechanism from the connecting gear. The control is activated by an activation force substantially directed either toward the central axis of the arm, along a length of the arm, or about the central axis. The activation force is mechanically converted into linear force along the arm that disengages the locking mechanism from the connecting gear.

  • SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR LANDING GEAR EXTENSION AND RETRACTION
    Publication number: 20250002141
    Abstract: An aircraft has a landing gear that can be extended and retracted and a landing gear control system that is configured so that it can cause extension/retraction of the landing gear of the aircraft in response to pilot operation of a landing gear lever. The control system is also configured such that in the scenario of pilot incapacitation, it can cause extension/retraction of the landing gear of the aircraft in response to an automated command for landing gear extension/retraction. A kit of parts including a relaying unit can be used for converting an existing aircraft to one that has this functionality. There is also a method of automatically extending/retracting landing gear, for example in the event of pilot incapacitation when performing single-pilot operation of the aircraft.

  • DYNAMIC USER AUTHENTICATION AND TRAFFIC STEERING
    Publication number: 20240146718
    Abstract: Techniques for dynamically establishing, pausing, and/or terminating secure communication sessions. The techniques may include, detecting an occurrence of an authentication trigger event on a computing device and causing a user of the computing device to be authenticated for access to a resource that is to be accessed via a secure communication session. Based at least in part on authenticating the user for access to the resource, a token may be stored in a location that is accessible to a headend appliance associated with the secure communication session. The token may indicate that the user of the computing device is authenticated for access to the resource. In this way, at least partially responsive to detecting an occurrence of a networking trigger event, the secure communication session may be established between the computing device and the headend appliance to provide the computing device with access to the resource.
