  • Publication number: 20220193975
    Abstract: An extruder or other similar tool head of a three-dimensional printer is slidably mounted along a feedpath of build material so that the extruder can move into and out of contact with a build surface according to whether build material is being extruded. The extruder may be spring-biased against the forward feedpath so that the extruder remains above the build surface in the absence of applied forces, and then moves downward into a position for extrusion when build material is fed into the extruder. In another aspect, modular tool heads are disclosed that can be automatically coupled to and removed from the three-dimensional printer by a suitable robotics system. A tool crib may be provided to store multiple tool heads while not in use.

  • Patent number: 11336005
    Abstract: This document describes a dual-antenna system for a video-recording doorbell and associated devices and systems. The described antenna system may be implemented on an elongated printed circuit board and can be used for wideband and ultra-wideband applications. For low-cost devices, the dual-antenna system may implement diversity antennas by including first and second substantially orthogonal antennas connected to a chipset configured for single-input single-output (SISO) functionality. The dual-antenna system described herein achieves high antenna isolation and efficiency without a decoupling structure between the first and second antennas. Further, the dual-antenna system achieves high isolation while in proximity to a battery (e.g., a battery within a housing of a battery-powered, video-recording doorbell) and a metal plate for mounting the device to a wall or other structure.

  • Publication number: 20220143121
    Abstract: A therapeutic treatment for the treatment of COVID-19 disease, the treatment to be initiated soon after and preferably within approximately twenty four hours after the patient develops the first signs of symptoms comprising but not limited to individually or in combination thereof fever, headache, sore joints, cough, fatigue, chills. The treatment consists of the oral administration of the herb thyme, also know as common thyme (Thymus vulgaris). The treatment is thought to inhibit the replication and activity of the virus allowing the patient to regain normal health and assist in developing immunity to the virus. The treatment is not known to completely eliminate the virus from the patient therefore resulting in the patient possibly developing the same or different symptoms of the disease a second, or more times requiring additional treatments of the disclosed thyme therapeutic treatment.
