| 20080209648 | Vibrating hair brush having isolator support system for controlled vibratory movement - A vibrating hair brush provides enhanced detangling of user's hair. The brush has a bristle pad comprising a plurality of bristles disposed in a brush head. The bristle pad is supported within the brush head by a vibrating motor and isolator assembly disposed for directing a vibratory movement of the motor to a bristle pad movement in a plane generally parallel to a user's scalp. The motor and isolator assembly effectively translate a circular vibratory movement of the offset weight into an elliptical movement of the bristle pad while insulating the vibration caused by the movement of the weight from a handle of the brush. | 09-04-2008 |
| 20080210252 | Vibrating hair brush with curvilinear planar movement for enhanced detangling of hair - A vibrating hair brush provides enhanced detangling of hair including a head portion having a motor assembly for operating a vibrating actuator and a plurality of bristles depending from a bristle pad. The actuator is disposed for generating a vibrating movement of the bristles in a curvilinear direction within a plane generally parallel to the bristle pad and tangential to the user's scalp. The vibrating actuator comprises an offset weight rotating in a plane generally parallel to the bristle pad. | 09-04-2008 |
| 20080217361 | BEVERAGE DISPENSING ASSEMBLY - A beverage dispensing assembly that is capable of dispensing controlled or metered portions of a beverage charged with a gas fits onto a shelf in a conventional household refrigerator. The beverage dispensing assembly includes a sealed disposable container assembly that contains the beverage and a dispensing assembly that cooperates with the container assembly to selectively unseal the container assembly and dispense controlled portions of the beverage from the container assembly. | 09-11-2008 |
| 20080217362 | Beverage dispensing assembly - A beverage dispensing assembly that is capable of dispensing controlled or metered portions of a beverage charged with a gas fits onto a shelf in a conventional household refrigerator. The beverage dispensing assembly includes a sealed disposable container assembly that contains the beverage and a dispensing assembly that cooperates with the container assembly to selectively unseal the container assembly and dispense controlled portions of the beverage from the container assembly. | 09-11-2008 |
| 20080217363 | BEVERAGE DISPENSING ASSEMBLY - A beverage dispensing assembly that is capable of dispensing controlled or metered portions of a beverage charged with a gas fits onto a shelf in a conventional household refrigerator. The beverage dispensing assembly includes a sealed disposable container assembly that contains the beverage and a dispensing assembly that cooperates with the container assembly to selectively unseal the container assembly and dispense controlled portions of the beverage from the container assembly. | 09-11-2008 |
| 20080296912 | REMOTE DOOR ACCESS DEVICE - A remotely activated door lock and unlocking device adapted to convert doorknobs and/or deadbolt access locks to remote door access. The device is engageable over the existing doorknob and/or deadbolt lock to allow for remote rotation activation to unlock and open the door. A gear drive motor rotates the doorknob and/or deadbolt. The device can include visual and/or audio indicators related to door actuation and lock status from a remote location. | 12-04-2008 |
| 20090038164 | BATTERY POWERED KNIFE - A battery powered dual blade knife that includes a handle having an interior cavity for containing one or more batteries. The batteries can be removably positioned at the rear portion of the handle. The cavity of the handle includes an electric motor that is generally positioned in the front region of the handle. A pair of blades is connected to the front portion of the handle and is designed to be moved relative to one another by the electric motor. The handle can be designed to waterproof one or more internal components of the knife to protect the one or more internal components from water damage. The knife can include a blade stabilization arrangement for the knife blades and/or mounts for the knife blades to facilitate in the movement of the knife blades and/or mounts for the knife blades when the motor causes the knife blades and/or mounts for the knife blades to move relative to one another. The knife can include an enhanced motor configuration in improve the operation of the knife. | 02-12-2009 |
| 20090050673 | Soldering Apparatus and Solder Tip - The present application discloses a fixture-free, hands-free soldering apparatus having a base support assembly and a solder assembly. The base support assembly has a base member supporting a power supply and an electronic temperature, time and speed control system, and an actuator for remotely actuating the solder assembly without the use of the operator's hands or fixtures. The solder assembly is supported on the base member by vertically movable support arms. A main body supports a spool of solder, a solder feed mechanism operated by the actuator and a solder mechanism having adjustable operating temperature, speed and position. The main body and adjustable solder mechanism of the solder assembly adjust the angle and position of the solder being fed by the solder feed mechanism and an adjustable solder head supporting a concave solder tip. In addition to vertical movement, the main body is rotatable by about 60 degrees with respect to a central horizontal plane along the main body. The adjustable solder head of the solder assembly is also rotatable by over 100 degrees with respect to a central vertical plane along the main body. A pressure or motion sensor positioned on the adjustable soldering mechanism may be used to signal the contact to the mechanism by work pieces, and delays solder from being fed by the solder feed mechanism, until the desired time has elapsed for the pieces to reach a minimum desired temperature. A fume removal system removes soldering fumes from the work area during operation of the solder apparatus. | 02-26-2009 |
| 20100126533 | STEAM MOP - A steam mop that includes a handle, an extension member, a base mount, a steam generator, and a mop head. The steam generator includes a body that at least partially contains a fluid tank, fluid pump and a heating element used to at least partially vaporize fluid. The body of the steam generator is designed to be releasably connected to the base mount such that the steam generator can be used as a steam producing device for the steam mop or can be disconnected from the base mount and be used as a stand alone steam producing device. | 05-27-2010 |
