  • Patent number: 10299983
    Abstract: Systems and methods for interactive treatments of female sexual disorders are presented. A programmable sexual stimulation device is provided, which transmits and receives data relating to the use and function of the device. The sexual stimulation device may be programmed to implement a particular combination of mechanical actions which have been customized by a user or a health care professional involved in the treatment or preference of the user. The device may also collect data on the type of mechanical actions input by the user and transmit the data to a remote location for viewing by the user or the healthcare professional. The device may also communicate with external devices which aid in the treatment programs, such as audio or image display devices which can coordinate the function of the sexual stimulation device with the presentation of audio or visual information to provide additional sources of sexual arousal to the user.

  • Publication number: 20180201433
    Abstract: A kit for dispensing disposable stethoscope covers is provided. The kit may include a cartridge and a dispenser for automatic touch-free dispensing of disposable stethoscope covers. The kit further includes a first spool having a roll of backing member with disposable stethoscope covers disposed thereon and a second spool for receiving the spent backing member after a disposable stethoscope cover has been removed, self-contained within the cartridge. The cartridge is inserted within the dispenser so that a user may insert a stethoscope head through a window of the dispenser to attach to a disposable stethoscope cover. The kit may further include a proximity sensor for detecting a user. Upon detection of the user, the first and second spools rotate to align a disposable stethoscope cover with the window of the dispenser in a ready-to dispense position.

  • Patent number: 9402422
    Abstract: An electronic cigarette adaptable to vaporize liquid or flower material further with exhale filter capability is disclosed herein. In a preferred embodiment, threads are provided to disassemble a flower and/or liquid cartridge so that they can be exchanged for either/or. The flower cartridge has a separate heat transfer element not desired in the liquid cartridge. An innovative diverter valve assembly also has threads to connect to the cartridges and provides an exhale filter function so that exhaled vapor will not be offensive to non-smokers in an enclosed environment. The electronic smoking device herein further has a mini/micro USB charging port on a side thereof for its rechargeable batteries. Also in a preferred embodiment, a mouthpiece is made of relatively soft elastomer material and is flavored for comfort and enjoyment of a user.
