  • Patent number: 12129163
    Abstract: A beverage dispenser maintains a profile queue with profile data of “close” consumer mobile computing devices. Each profile in the profile queue maintains one or more beverages previously selected by a consumer, such as favorite beverage(s), mixed or blended beverages, and/or past or future beverage order(s). Each profile in the profile queue is additionally associated with a profile identifier, such as a name, screen name, social media picture, avatar, alphanumeric identifier, other such text or graphics recognizable by a consumer to be associated with their corresponding profile. Upon navigation to an appropriate screen on the beverage dispenser, a display on the beverage dispenser shows the profile identifiers or one or more of the previously selected beverages in the profiles of “close” consumer mobile computing devices. In this way, a consumer is able to quickly access their previously selected beverages without actively manipulating their mobile device.

  • Publication number: 20240306975
    Abstract: Conduction block across a lesion in tissue can be assessed by applying a pacing signal to tissue on one side of the lesion and sensing electrophysiological activity in the tissue on the opposite side of the lesion. A signal processor, such as may be incorporated into an electroanatomical mapping system, analyzes the sensed electrophysiological activity for a response evoked by the pacing signal and outputs an indicator of conduction block status. More particularly, when a preset number of consecutive pacing pulses do not yield an evoked response, an indicator of block can be output; conversely, when a preset number of consecutive pacing pulses do yield an evoked response, an indicator of no block can be output.

  • Publication number: 20240300806
    Abstract: An MEMS diaphragm and an MEMS sensor. The MEMS diaphragm includes: a main diaphragm including a main body sensing portion and beam portions, and the beam portions are connected to an outer edge of the main body sensing portion; an additional material layer provided on the beam portions or provided on both an edge of the main body sensing portion and on the beam portions. The intrinsic tensile stress of the additional material layer is greater than an intrinsic tensile stress of the main body sensing portion. An additional material layer is provided, which mechanically reinforces the diaphragm region experiencing high stress during a pressure pulse, and the intrinsic tensile stress of the additional material layer is greater than the main body sensing portion, thereby ensuring the compliance of the main diaphragm.

  • Patent number: 12083599
    Abstract: The nozzles of a MHD liquid metal ejector/printhead can be clogged by contaminants in the liquid metal. Typically, these contaminants are in the form of small particles of aggregates of particles, such as metal oxides, that are insoluble in the liquid metal. Possible cleaning methods include mechanically removing the clogging material, such as by using a physical device to dislodge the clogging material and remove it; chemically removing the clogging material, such as by using selected chemicals/flux to chemically react with the clogging material; using ultrasound to break/remove the clogging material; and providing reversed and/or oscillating flow of material through the nozzle.
