摘要： A mobile device case includes a reel assembly, including a reel, a supporting plate, and a hub between the reel and the supporting plate. The hub includes a first cavity between the hub and the supporting plate for housing a spring, and a second cavity between the hub and the reel for housing a flat flexible cable (FFC). The spring is wound in a first direction, while the FFC is wound in a second direction. The FFC includes a first end for electrically coupling to a female jack connector of a device. A female connector is electrically coupled to a second end of the FFC for engaging a male jack connector of user-provided headphones. When the reel rotates in the first direction, the spring tightens and the FFC loosens. When the reel rotates in the second direction, the spring loosens and the FFC tightens.

摘要： A device for connecting a cable (17) to an electric component arranged in a housing (18) comprising a support (1) and at least one contact member (2, 3) retained therein. The contact member (2, 3) has a cutting area (6, 7) that cuts through the insulation of the cable (17) and contacts a conductor of the cable. The contact member (2, 3) further has a contact area (4, 5) that contacts a conductor arranged in the housing (18). The support (1) is received in an opening of the housing (18) and the cable (17) is retained between the support and the housing (18). A particular advantage of this solution is that the support which carries the contact members simultaneously fulfills the strain relief function by clamping the cable between itself and the housing.

摘要： A vibrating tampon apparatus to provide relief from feminine menstrual cramps comprises a vibration element, a housing unit, and a tampon member. The vibration element provides a source of vibrations and is contained within the housing unit. The tampon member is fabricated of an absorbent material and covers at least a portion of the housing unit, while being held in place by retaining elements on the exterior of the housing unit. Electric power is supplied to the vibration element by a remote electric power source. The electrical connection between the electric power source and the vibration element is controlled remotely by a control unit that allows the apparatus to operate either momentarily, in a testing situation, or continually for the lifetime of the electric power source, which is for normal usage and cannot be interrupted by the user.

摘要： An apparatus for dispensing material includes: a chamber for the material, the chamber sealed by a flexible seal; a nozzle coupled to the chamber and residing at a front end; and a pump, the pump comprising: a piston that moves in a tube, and an activator. When a user presses the activator, the piston moves toward or away from the front end, and a portion of the material is emitted onto the user's palm or fingers. The pump emits the portion of the material regardless of a direction of gravitational pull. In one embodiment, the piston emits the material by directly contacting the material in the chamber. In another embodiment, air is allowed into the chamber through a weep hole, which resides between the piston and the material. The air is used to expel the material through the one-way valve.

摘要： A bracelet to be worn on the wrist which includes a dispenser for dispensing liquid or powdered materials such as sunblocks or germicides. The dispenser on the palm side of the wrist and when the user presses an activator, the dispenser emits a portion of the material onto the user's palm. The dispenser is approximately the size of a wrist watch. A preferred embodiment of the dispenser employs a pump which will work at any orientation. The pump uses air pressure differences produced by the movement of a piston to pull the material into a chamber and expel it from the chamber through a one-way valve. The one-way valve in a preferred embodiment of the pump is made from a silicon diaphragm which opens when it flexes in response to pressure differences and a support for the diaphragm which permits it to flex in only one direction.

摘要： Methods and apparatuses for dynamically budgeting power usage in a data processing system. In one aspect, a data processing system, includes: one or more components including a first component; and a computing element, such as a microprocessor or a microcontroller, coupled to the first component to obtain one or more operating signals from the first component and to determine, based at least in part on the one or more operating signals, an estimate of a power consumption requirement of the one or more components for operating under the current condition. In one example, one or more sensors are used to determine information on actual power usage for a past period of time. A performance level setting of a second component, such as a CPU, a GPU, or a bus, is determined using the estimate and the information on the actual power usage, such as the operating voltage and frequency.
