  • Patent number: 9950074
    Abstract: A vehicle composition in the form of a vesicular composition or a particular composition and, optionally, an active agent associated with the vesicle forming components or particles, and folate receptor alpha is used as a delivery system for the transport of components and/or active agents into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and/or brain and/or central nervous system and/or spinal cord. The composition is used for treating of CSF or brain pertaining diseases, disorders or conditions, such as preventing or treating neurological or neurodegenerative diseases, disorders or conditions.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9369794
    Abstract: To avoid undesirable electrostatic discharge events while maintaining low leakage currents, earbuds may be provided with controlled electrostatic discharge paths. The discharge paths may include discrete components such as resistors or more distributed resistive components such as resistive elastomers. A resistive elastomer may be incorporated into an interior portion of an earbud between an earbud housing structure and a ground path. A resistive elastomer may also be used in forming an ear bud tip.

  • Patent number: 8710376
    Abstract: Various systems of an electronic device and methods for manufacturing the same are provided. In some embodiments, a routing assembly is provided that may not only route a cable along a circuit board, but that may also shield an electronic component or secure an electronic component to the circuit board. In some other embodiments, there is provided a mechanism for electrically coupling two components of an electronic device that may also be visually appealing in the context of other portions of the electronic device.

  • Patent number: 7411134
    Abstract: Electrical mounting boards and methods for their fabrication and use are disclosed herein. In particular, such mounting boards embodiments utilize hybrid ground lines interconnected through a substrate core to form multilayer ground grids. Such hybrid ground lines include groups of substantially parallel ground lines configured such that the groups of ground lines are positioned in transverse arrangement with other groups of ground lines formed on the same level. Such implementations have many uses, including, but not limited to, the ability to more efficiently route signal lines and connect electrical components on a circuit board.
