  • Publication number: 20260226726
    Abstract: A lavatory mirror de-fogging arrangement includes a fan positioned to blow air onto a front surface of a mirror. An environmental sensor may detect an environmental parameter (e.g., humidity and/or temperature) in a room in which the mirror is disposed. Illustratively, a controller is in electrical communication with the fan and with the environmental sensor. The controller may activate the fan in response to input from the environmental sensor.

  • Patent number: 12467244
    Abstract: A housing fluidly coupled to an inlet tube received within a faucet delivery spout. The housing receives a flow modifying device (e.g., an aerator or a stream straightener), and includes a first baffle and a second baffle to provide a desired water flow to the flow modifying device.

  • Patent number: 9089005
    Abstract: A control system for an oven including a plurality of heating elements positioned within the cooking cavity includes a temperature sensor configured to detect an air temperature within the cooking cavity, a user interface for receiving a desired temperature set point command, and a controller operatively coupled to the temperature sensor and user interface. The controller is configured to determine a power splitting ratio between the first and second heating elements based on user-specified cooking mode and/or type of food being cooked, determine a total power command signal based on a determined error value between the detected cavity air temperature and the desired temperature set point command, and adjust a power level of each of the first and second heating elements based on the total power command and the power splitting ratio.
