  • Publication number: 20230317240
    Abstract: Methods and systems for treatment of feeding disorders in individuals by a multidisciplinary team comprising medical, behavioral, nutritional, and oral-motor skill professionals and/or specialists. For example, in one embodiment, a subject may go through treatment that comprises four phases/process: screening, assessment, intervention, and discharge. The screening process may determine the subject’s eligibility for the treatment. The assessment process may establish a baseline from which the specific treatment is determined. The intervention process generally implements the treatment through daily “doses” of treatment meal sessions. The discharge process may ensure that the treatment gains made during the intervention phase are carried into the subject’s daily life.

  • Patent number: 4544865
    Abstract: A window operating system includes a motor control circuit for controlling the operation of direct current permanent magnet motors mounted on window operators associated with each window. Each of the motors on each of the windows is connected to the control circuit only by a pair of wires which both power the motor and provide information to the control circuit as to the status of motor operation. The status of motor operation is determined by monitoring the back electromagnetic force expressed by the motors. To help differentiate back electromagnetic force from supply voltage supplied to the motors, the motors are supplied with full rectified alternating current power, rather than simple direct current, so that the presence or absence of zero voltage between half waves of the voltage expressed across the motors can be monitored to determine the absence or presence of back electromotive force during those time periods.
