Publication number: 20160187981Abstract: A dynamic tactile interface includes a dynamic tactile layer and a manual fluid actuator. The manual fluid actuator includes a displacement device including a bladder, a platen adjacent the bladder, an elongated member coupled to the platen, and a rotary actuator, the elongated member and the rotary actuator translating rotation of the rotary actuator into translation of the platen, the platen compressing the bladder in response to rotation of the rotary actuator in a first direction and expanding the bladder in response to rotation of the rotary actuator in a second direction opposite the first direction.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 23, 2015Publication date: June 30, 2016Inventors: Curtis A.

Publication number: 20040069346Abstract: A sprinkler winterization and drainage device and method for use in new and existing sprinkler systems that is capable of operation completely from the outside of a building. The devices and methods of the present invention may be used for sprinkler systems in residential homes, commercial or residential rentals, parks, schools and any other application where the main water supply conduit and main sprinkler supply line is located within the interior of a building. The device and method include a valve assembly including a valve located inside a building for shutting off the main sprinkler supply line from outside the building, while also providing for drainage of residual water in the valve assembly to the outside of the building. The device and methods of the present invention completely eliminate the necessity of entry into a building in order to perform sprinkler winterization.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 4, 2002Publication date: April 15, 2004Inventor: Robert Adrian
