20140378946 | APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR COMPRESSING A WOMAN'S BREAST TO EXPRESS MILK IN A CONCEALABLE MANNER - Wearable breast pumps are provided which utilize compression to enhance milk expression. The breast milk expression systems herein can allow breastfeeding users to obtain milk discreetly and comfortably in the presence of others. These systems compress the breast at one or more locations, such as at a base of a breast and/or along inferior and lateral sides of a breast, to stimulate milk expression. Various components and methods for expressing milk can facilitate milk output. For example, vacuum can be used in conjunction with compression. For another example, one or more temperature sensitive components can be utilized to improve milk secretion. In some embodiments, milk can be collected in a sterile custom storage container located around or beneath the breasts to facilitate wearability. After expression is complete, a quick-release valve can be used to detach the storage container from the pump and can prevent leaks. | 12-25-2014 |

20110277225 | HEAD PROTECTION SYSTEM - An apparatus to prohibit user injury from sudden impact or rotational or whiplash movement. The apparatus includes a helmet, a body harness configured to secure to the user, a plurality of tethers and a plurality of spools. Each tether has one end attached to the helmet and an opposing end fixed relative to the body harness. Each spool is positioned with a tether in wound engagement with the spool. Each spool includes a locking mechanism moveable between an unlocked condition and a locked condition. Upon pre-determined movement of at least one of the tethers, the corresponding locking mechanism moves from the unlocked condition to the locked condition to prohibit additional movement of the tether. | 11-17-2011 |

20150375929 | THERMAL BOX AND TRANSPORT SYSTEM - This disclosure relates to a system and method for insulating a mill product during a transporting and storing process. The system includes a platform, an insulated enclosure, and an actuator system. The platform is capable of supporting the insulated enclosure and the mill product. The insulated enclosure includes a first clamshell enclosure member and a second clamshell enclosure member supported on the platform. Each enclosure member has an open position and a closed position. When each enclosure member is in the open position, the mill product supported on the platform within the enclosure may be accessed. When each enclosure member is in the closed position, the mill product is thermally insulated within the enclosure. The actuator system can move the clamshell enclosures between their open and closed positions. | 12-31-2015 |
