  • Publication number: 20230350188
    Abstract: An adapter may be used to couple an imaging device, such as a smartphone, to an optical device such as a telescope. The adapter may have an optical device mounting feature that mounts the adapter to the optical device, an imaging device mounting feature that mounts the imaging device to the adapter, and a positioning mechanism that adjustably positions the imaging device mounting feature relative to the optical device mounting feature. The adapter may also have a joint, distinct from the positioning mechanism, configured to move the optical device mounting feature between a stowed (e.g., “folded”) configuration, in which the optical device mounting feature is positioned alongside the imaging device support surface, and a deployed (e.g., “unfolded”) configuration, in which a camera of the imaging device is positionable, using positioning mechanism, in alignment with the optical device mounting feature with the imaging device mounted on the imaging device mounting feature.

  • Publication number: 20230082726
    Abstract: A deadbolt control and security system for preventing rotation of a deadbolt manual egress handle of a deadbolt lock is described herein. The system preferably includes a deadbolt interface unit and at least one actuator unit. The deadbolt interface unit has a manual mode (the deadbolt interface unit manual egress handle controlling locking and unlocking the deadbolt lock) and a remote mode (the at least one actuator unit controlling locking and unlocking the deadbolt lock). The deadbolt interface unit includes: a deadbolt interface unit manual egress handle; a gear train having a shaft coordinated with the deadbolt interface unit manual egress handle; a unit-handle coupler that interfaces between the deadbolt manual egress handle and the deadbolt interface unit manual egress handle via the shaft; and a clutch. Preferred systems prevent the deadbolt lock from being unlocked using keys and/or other bypass tools.

  • Patent number: 10861300
    Abstract: The invention disclosed here is a display system for managing power and security for a plurality of hand-held electronic devices sold to consumers in a retail location. The display includes features that allow power to be supplied to individual devices and security sensors without continuous hard wiring or multi-conductor retractor cables. The display also allows for individual security alarms to be triggered when a theft occurs. Security alarm conditions are preferably triggered via wireless signals.

  • Patent number: 10795146
    Abstract: An adapter may be used to couple an imaging device, such as a smartphone, to an optical device such as a telescope. The adapter may have an optical device mounting feature that mounts the adapter to the optical device, an imaging device mounting feature that mounts the imaging device to the adapter, and a positioning mechanism that adjustably positions the imaging device mounting feature relative to the optical device mounting feature. The optical device mounting feature may have a first arm, a second arm that is movable relative to the first arm to clamp a portion of the optical device between the first arm and the second arm, and a lock that can be actuated to restrict motion of the second arm away from the first arm. The positioning mechanism may be actuatable to move the imaging device, relative to the optical device, along three orthogonal axes.

  • Patent number: 9632305
    Abstract: An optical device such as a telescope may be connected to a camera through the use of a camera that acts as a lens cap for the optical system. The optical device may have an eyepiece and a housing within which a lens is retained. The adapter may have a cover portion, a housing attachment feature, an eyepiece attachment feature, and one or more camera attachment features. The cover portion may cover an end of the housing, and may have an imaging aperture. The housing attachment feature may be positioned at a periphery of the cover portion, and may attach the cover portion to the housing. The eyepiece attachment feature may be positioned proximate the imaging aperture to attach the cover portion to the eyepiece. The camera attachment features may facilitate attachment of a camera to the cover portion in alignment with the imaging aperture.
