  • Publication number: 20250072811
    Abstract: Devices, systems, and techniques are disclosed for managing electrical stimulation therapy and/or sensing of physiological signals such as brain signals. For example, a system may assist a clinician in identifying one or more electrode combinations for sensing a brain signal. In another example, a user interface may display brain signal information and values of a stimulation parameter at least partially defining electrical stimulation delivered to a patient when the brain signal information was sensed.

  • Patent number: 7377495
    Abstract: A pressure regulator that regulates the pressure at which carbon dioxide is introduced to water in a carbonated beverage system based on the temperature of the water. The regulator may be capable of operating in a first mode in which the carbon dioxide pressure varies substantially linearly over a first water temperature range, and a second mode in which the carbon dioxide pressure is substantially constant over a second water temperature range. A first flow path having a relatively small gas flow capacity may serve as a pilot to control the gas flow through a second flow path having a larger gas flow capacity.

  • Patent number: 5559494
    Abstract: A method and apparatus as presented for monitoring the condition of oil in a transmission to present a service indicia prior to the time that the oil life has been spent. A thermosensor and a tachometer are associated with the transmission to present respective output signals correlated with operating temperature and transmission revolutions. The revolutions of the transmission are weighted as a function of the deviation of the temperature from a temperature standard. The resulting effective revolutions are then applied to a down counter which is initially loaded to the number of allowable effective revolutions when the transmission oil is changed or the transmission serviced. When the down counter has counted out, a message is displayed indicating the need for service.
