  • Publication number: 20240141879
    Abstract: A pulsation dampener includes: a centerbody assembly having: a chamber including a first opening bounded by a wall defining a first surface; an outlet port communicating with the chamber; an inlet port communicating with the chamber; a flexible first diaphragm, wherein a perimeter of the first diaphragm is bonded to the first surface forming a seal that blocks the passage of fluid; a first cap disposed adjacent the first diaphragm, defining a first cavity between the first cap and the first diaphragm; an inlet orifice formed in the first cap communicating with the first cavity; an exhaust orifice formed in the first cap communicating with the first cavity; and a valve seat disposed in the first cavity in fluid communication with the exhaust orifice. The first diaphragm is moveable between an open position spaced away from the valve seat, and a closed position sealed against the valve seat.

  • Publication number: 20230290479
    Abstract: A virtual reality therapy system is described. The virtual reality system includes a virtual reality headset, a garment, and an electronic device. The garment having at least one sensor, the at least one sensor configured to generate sensor data based upon movement. The electronic device is in communication with the virtual reality headset and receives the sensor data, or data based on the sensor data. The electronic device projects a virtual reality environment to the virtual reality headset based upon data generated by the at least one sensor of the garment.

  • Publication number: 20230140080
    Abstract: Provided is a wall power outlet extender that may be positioned or mounted on a wall and that may relocate the wall power outlet to a different position on the wall without requiring electrical work or professional installation and without cluttering adjacent surfaces. The wall power outlet extender may be positionable along a surface of a wall adjacent to a wall power outlet and may allow a user to semi-permanently relocate the wall power outlet. The wall power outlet extender may be made fixed and stationary at a particular position and relatively unmovable unless acted on or repositioned by a user. The wall power outlet extender may be selectively rotatable and/or telescopic, and include a spinning or ambidextrous plug, to be adaptable to the specific location and to provide a myriad of different positions in which the new outlet may be placed. The wall power outlet extender may feature multiple outlets, USB ports, and surge protection, as well as Bluetooth and wireless capabilities.

  • Publication number: 20210065448
    Abstract: The subject technology receives, at a client device, a selection of a selectable graphical item from a plurality of selectable graphical items, the selectable graphical item comprising an augmented reality content generator including a 3D effect. The subject technology captures image data using at least one camera of the client device. The subject technology generates depth data using a machine learning model based at least in part on the captured image data. The subject technology applies, to the image data and the depth data, the 3D effect based at least in part on the augmented reality content generator.

  • Patent number: 5269304
    Abstract: An electro-therapy apparatus includes at least two electrodes adapted to feed oscillating current to selected sites on or beneath the epidermal or mucous surface remote from a treatment site. A common return electrode is provided at the treatment site which is subjected to the sum of the currents from the two feed electrodes. The feed electrodes may be contact feed electrodes or capacitative feed electrodes. The feed electrodes may operate at different frequencies so that the treatment site is stimulated by the beat frequency. This may be at or about 80 or 130 Hz, if an anaesthetizing effect is required.
