Abstract: A small tire changing device designed to easily change a small tire to enhance the efficiency for competitive go-karts, lawn mowers, tractors, and/or small vehicles. The device features a durable base, square steel tubing, and an integrated small tire changing portion. A tire bead breaker unit, equipped with an ergonomic handle and a specialized C-shaped or curvilinear bead breaker component is used for breaking the bead of a tire off the rim. The tire changing portion provides a platform for tire manipulation, and the device includes a convenient storage solution for an included pry bar. The device provides all the necessary tools for changing a small tire and does not require a user to bend or sit on their knees during the tire changing process.

Abstract: Aspects describe an in-ear audio output device. The in-ear audio output device includes an acoustic chamber defined by an earbud housing shaped to fit in the lower concha of an ear of a wearer of the in-ear audio output device, the earbud housing comprising: a resistive port located on a first side of the earbud housing creating an opening in a wall of the earbud housing and a first feedforward microphone located on a second side of the earbud housing, the second side substantially opposite the first side of the earbud housing; and a stability band. The stability band includes at least one attachment feature that couples the stability band to the earbud housing and a first side substantially opposite the attachment feature that only partially covers the resistive port when the in-ear audio output device is positioned in the ear of the wearer.

Abstract: Aspects describe air flow relief features in the cosmetic surface of the housing of an in-ear audio output device. Due to design constraints based, at least in part, on the limited space available in the acoustic chamber and ear geometry, ports coupling the acoustic chamber with an area outside the housing are susceptible to full blockage when placed in-ear. Air flow relief channels for ports, extending from the port aligned in the concha cymba, over the helix crus, to the cymba cavum minimize complete blockages of the port as compared to current designs.

Abstract: A safety-related signalling device for a motor vehicle including a light guide, a first light source capable of emitting a light beam that illuminates a lateral face of the light guide to allow the light beam to propagate in the light guide, and a reflective screen having a front face located at a distance and across from a rear face of the light guide. The light guide is translucent and light-coloured, and the reflective screen promotes diffuse reflection of the light from the light guide so as to homogenize and intensify, on a front face, the light emitted by the light guide.

Abstract: The invention relates to a lighting device for a signal light of a motor vehicle, generating increased light propagation in a light guide. To this end, the lighting device comprises a light guide defined by a front face, a light source illuminating a first end of the light guide, and a first mask which is positioned in front of the light source and a part of the front face of the light guide, such that the first mask hides the light source from an observer looking at the front face of the light guide. Advantageously, the front face of the light guide, facing the first mask, is at least partially covered by a separating layer reflecting the light emitted by the light source.

Abstract: The method generally has the steps of: measuring a measured liquid level value in a reservoir; generating a filtered liquid level value including applying a first noise filtration stage to the measured liquid level value to limit the change of the filtered liquid level value compared to previous liquid level value measurements; determining a variation of the generated filtered liquid level value over a given period of time; comparing the determined variation to a threshold value; when the determined variation is above the threshold value, entering a sloshing mode, the sloshing mode including generating an outputted liquid level value corresponding to a filtered liquid level value generated prior to entering the sloshing mode, the sloshing mode being maintained until the determined variation is below the threshold value; and when the determined variation is below the threshold value, generating an outputted liquid level value corresponding to the filtered liquid level value.

Abstract: A walking aid with irritant dispenser includes a shaft having upper and lower ends and defining a hollow chamber configured to contain an irritant. A compressed air cartridge is positioned in the shaft in fluid communication with the chamber. A trigger is operatively coupled to the air cartridge and configured to cause air to be released from the cartridge into the chamber when actuated. A piston situated in the chamber is movable between an upward configuration when the trigger is not actuated and a downward configuration when the trigger is actuated. The lower end of the shaft defines an outlet in fluid communication with the chamber through which the irritant is released when the piston is at the downward configuration. The chamber includes a predetermined amount of fluid pressure such that infusion of air from the compressed air cartridge increases the pressure and urges the piston toward the downward configuration.
