20100052918Method and Device for Training Young Children to Fall Asleep - A sleep training device for assisting caregivers in training infants to sleep includes: a housing; a controller disposed within the housing; and an input device configured to be accessed from outside the housing and operationally coupled to the controller. The input device is provided for allowing a caregiver to input status information of an infant. The sleep training device also includes a storage device disposed within the housing and operationally coupled to the controller, the storage device provided to store training data regarding a sleep training regimen; and a display viewable from outside the housing and operationally coupled to the controller. The controller a) receives the status information from the input device and the training data from the storage device; b) based on the status information and the training data, calculates care instructions; and c) provides instructions to the display to present the care instructions to the caregiver.03-04-2010

20080211206STROLLER - Strollers are provided having one or more components which can be moved by a drive mechanism between two or more desired positions, such as baby strollers having one or more components which are automatically and easily movable by a drive mechanism between an operative position for use of the stroller and a collapsed position for compact storage and transport of the stroller. Various structures and operative embodiments for automatically moving one or more stroller components are provided.09-04-2008
20100045001Collapsible Stroller - A stroller includes at least one front leg rotationally coupled to a hub; at least one front wheel rotationally coupled to the at least one front leg; at least one rear leg rotationally coupled to the hub; and at least one rear wheel rotationally coupled to the at least one rear leg. The at least one front leg and the at least one rear leg are mechanically coupled such that the at least one front leg and the at least one rear leg rotate synchronously to a first position relative to the hub to configure the stroller in a collapsed position and to a second position relative to the hub to configure the stroller in an open position.02-25-2010
20100052376Variable Motion Infant Seat Utilizing Constant Motor Speed - A variable motion infant seat includes: a vertical reciprocating assembly comprising a first motor for providing vertical motion; a horizontal reciprocating assembly coupled to the vertical reciprocating assembly and comprising a second motor for providing horizontal motion; and a support device coupled to at least one of the vertical reciprocating assembly and the horizontal reciprocating assembly. The first motor and second motor are run at a substantially constant speed, thereby causing the vertical reciprocating assembly and horizontal reciprocating assembly to move the support device in at least one motion profile.03-04-2010
20100052387Infant Care Apparatus - An infant care apparatus includes a base; a drive mechanism disposed on the base; a controller electronically coupled to the drive mechanism; and a support device coupled to the drive mechanism. The support device is configured to be moved in both a horizontal and vertical direction relative to the base by the drive mechanism. The drive mechanism is controlled by the controller to move the support device in a plurality of motion profiles relative to the base.03-04-2010

20090217413PLANT GENETIC SEQUENCES ASSOCIATED WITH VACUOLAR PH AND USES THEREOF - The present invention relates generally to the field of plant molecular biology and agents useful in the manipulation of plant physiological or biochemical properties. More particularly, the present invention provides genetic and proteinaceous agents capable of modulating or altering the level of acidity or alkalinity in a cell, group of cells, organelle, part or reproductive portion of a plant. Even more particularly, the present invention contemplates methods and agents for modulating or altering pH levels in the vacuole of a cell, group of cells, organelle, part or reproductive portion of a plant. The present invention further provides genetically altered plants, plant parts, progeny, subsequent generations and reproductive material including flowers or flowering parts having cells exhibiting an altered vacuolar pH compared to a non-genetically altered plant. The present invention still further provides methods for modulating or altering flower color in a plant. Even more particularly, the present invention provides for down regulation of pH in a plant which results in a bluer color in the plant; especially in the flower08-27-2009
20090293144PLANT NUCLEIC ACIDS ASSOCIATED WITH CELLULAR pH AND USES THEREOF - The present invention relates generally to the field of plant molecular biology and agents useful in the manipulation of plant physiological or biochemical properties. More particularly, the present invention provides genetic and proteinaceous agents capable of modulating or altering the level of acidity or alkalinity in a cell, group of cells, organelle, part or reproductive portion of a plant. Genetically altered plants, plant parts, progeny, subsequent generations and reproductive material including flowers or flowering parts having cells exhibiting an altered cellular pH compared to a non-genetically altered plant are also provided.11-26-2009
20110008523GENETIC SEQUENCES HAVING METHYLTRANSFERASE ACTIVITY AND USES THEREFOR - The present invention relates generally to a genetic sequence encoding a polypeptide having methyltransferase activity and the use of the genetic sequence and/or the polypeptide to modify one or more phenotypic characteristics of a plant. More particularly, the methyltransferase of the present invention acts on flavonoids, preferably wherein the flavonoid is an anthocyanin. Even more particularly, the present invention relates to a polypeptide having S-adenosyl-L-methionine: anthocyanin 3′-O-methyltransferase or S-adenosyl-L-methionine: anthocyanin 3′, 5′-O-methyltransferase activity. The present invention still further provides a genetic sequence encoding a polypeptide having methyltransferase activity derived from 01-13-2011
