20090172807METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MANAGING MULTIPLE SECURITY PROTOCOLS AND USERS FOR IMAGING DEVICES - Methods and apparatus contemplate a system for securing imaging devices on a network by allowing a system administrator to apply different security protocols to specific functions of an imaging device. This allows a system administrator to customize the functions of the imaging device by restricting the particular functions to only those users who need them, as opposed to the global security policies currently required. The system uses a computer program product, including executable instructions, which can be stored on the imaging device itself, a network server, and/or some other device attached to the network. The computer program product can be installed directly from the manufacturer, through computer readable media, or by downloading. The product interfaces directly with the imaging device to determine what imaging functions are present and to set what security protocols are required to access those functions.07-02-2009

20090122358PORTABLE USER CONFIGURATION FOR IMAGING DEVICES - User configurations are stored on a portable storage device for reuse later on an imaging device. Methods and apparatus contemplate establishing an initial configuration of identity information about the user and then creating imaging preferences, such as duplexing, overlaying, and orienting options, for a to-be-imaged media. The initial configuration and the imaging preferences are stored on the portable storage device, such as a USB flash drive. Upon interfacing of the portable storage device with the imaging device, users are queried as to whether the stored imaging preferences are to be used in imaging the to-be-imaged media (such as by presentation of a dedicated icon). If so, a controller reads the stored imaging preferences from the portable storage device and images the media accordingly. In this manner, users are uniquely outfitted with configuration options to avoid generic settings of an imaging device generally configured at the time of device installation.05-14-2009

20100234858EPILATING DEVICE - An epilator (09-16-2010
20100274261Hybrid Epilator Device - The present invention is a hybrid epilator device comprising an epilation unit for gripping and plucking hairs from a skin surface and at least one razor blade edge to shave off hairs growing on the skin surface. The blade edge defines a use direction along which it is effectuated that hairs are shaved off when the razor blade is drawn over the skin surface during operation. The razor blade is arranged behind the epilation unit with respect to the use direction. The epilation unit and the razor blade are mounted for simultaneous contact with the skin surface, where during operation the epilation unit grips and plucks out hairs from the skin surface and subsequently the razor blade shaves off remaining hairs growing on the same skin surface in a single stroke.10-28-2010
20110130770Epilation Device - An epilation device is proposed that has a housing, a roll-like epilation implement mounted at the housing, which epilation implement has clamping units for successively clamping and plucking hairs, and the epilation device has further a powered motor operatively coupled to the epilation implement, and a motor control. The proposed epilation device is arranged to have at least a fast operation mode in which the motor is controlled by the motor control such that the clamping units move with a circumferential speed of more than 2.5 meters per second relative to the housing. This serves to e.g. achieve a gap-less clamping and plucking in a use direction (U) even if the epilation device is drawn over the skin with a relatively high speed.06-02-2011
20110276061EPILATOR WITH AN ATTACHMENT AND SUCH ATTACHMENT - The present invention is concerned with an epilator that comprises a housing, an epilation cylinder mounted at a head region of the housing for plucking hairs from the skin during operation, and an attachment detachably connected with the housing, which attachment comprises at least a shaving blade defining a use direction along which the shaving blade is to be drawn over the skin to shave off hairs. In the attached state the shaving blade is disposed behind the epilation cylinder with respect to the use direction so that during operation the epilation cylinder plucks hairs from the skin and the shaving blade contacts the skin to shave off hairs from the skin in successive order during a single stroke of the epilator over a skin area, wherein the attachment is connected with the housing in the head region such that the epilation cylinder is partially covered by the attachment and a non-covered part of the epilation cylinder extends into an aperture of the attachment.11-10-2011

Such an epilation device is specifically suited for plucking out terminal hairs while vellus hair, specifically present on facial skin areas, is plucked out due to its lower thickness that relates to the distance.12-15-2011
20120041452Hybrid Epilator Device - The present invention discloses a hybrid epilator device that comprises a razor blade having a sharp edge for cutting hairs, an epilation cylinder comprising at least a pair of clamping elements that during operation are actuated by an actuation system between an open position and a closed position so that hairs can feed into the gap between the pair of clamping elements in the open position and are gripped and plucked out from the skin surface when the pair of clamping elements is in the closed position, and a manually operable adjustment mechanism that has a least a first adjustment and a second adjustment such that in the first adjustment and the second adjustment the skin surface can be simultaneously contacted by the sharp edge of the razor blade and an circumferential area of the epilation cylinder. This allows switching between two different epilation efficiencies of the epilation cylinder.02-16-2012

20120078269Epilator - The invention is directed to an epilator apparatus for the removal of hair. The epilator apparatus comprises a tape, which adheres to the hairs as the apparatus is moved relative to the skin. The motion of the apparatus relative to the skin feeds the tape into the plucking zone where the tape with the hairs adhered thereto is redirected perpendicular to the skin. This redirection results in the hairs being plucked from the skin as the epilator apparatus is advanced.03-29-2012
