Abstract: An bottle warming apparatus may be provided. The apparatus may include a bottle for storing food and fluids. The bottle may include a recessed portion and indentations positioned on opposite sides of the bottle. Additionally, the apparatus may include a bottle housing configured to receive the bottle. The apparatus may also include a heating element that is positionable into the recessed portion of the bottle. Furthermore, the apparatus may include a pressure-sensitive switch that activates the apparatus when the bottle exerts enough pressure against the switch as the bottle is positioned into the bottle housing. Heat may be generated by the heating element when the apparatus is activated and be utilized to warm the bottle. The apparatus may further include a temperature sensor for measuring a temperature of the bottle. A signal may be transmitted to instruct the apparatus to deactivate when an optimal temperature is reached.

Abstract: A solid-state lighting device for illuminating a predetermined area having a width and length includes a reflector having at least one cavity. At least one edge emitting solid-state light-emitting device is positioned relative to the cavity of the reflector. The cavity includes an inner curved surface terminating at an edge proximate the solid-state light-emitting device. The inner curved surface has a curvature such that a light intensity of the device has a sharp drop-off in intensity at a boundary of the width and a slowly attenuating light at a boundary of the length.
