摘要： A magnetic tie clip is provided, which includes a first component that is fastened with a button on a shirt and a second component which is fastened on a tie. The second component includes a magnet which is magnetically coupled with the first component in order to secure the tie to the shirt. The first component further includes a button fastener which attaches with the button, a magnetic member which is magnetically coupled with the second component, and a connector which flexibly connects the button fastener and the magnetic member. The connector may be set to a length which provides for flexible movement of the magnetic member relative to the button fastener, such that the tie is secured close to the shirt but is permitted to move as the wearer moves.

摘要： In a power adapter having multiple power outputs, a first information handling system (IHS) is coupled to a first power output included by the multiple power outputs. A second IHS is coupled to a second power output included by the multiple power outputs. A controller is coupled to each IHS and each power output. In response to the first IHS being decoupled from the first power output, an amount of power that is supplied to the second power output is determined.

摘要： An improved mobility scooter comprising a frame, an adjustable seat, a plurality of wheels coupled to the frame, and handlebars coupled to the frame. The handlebars can be folded downward to provide a compact configuration of the apparatus for travel, storage or other space restrictions. In another aspect, the improved mobility scooter further comprises a locking mechanism in its wheel casters, thereby providing for the selective configuration of the wheels in a fixed position with respect to the frame. In yet another aspect, a method of assisted mobility for an operator is described.

摘要： A method for orally administering vitamin preparations is described which combine vitamin B12 (B12, cobalamin) and folic acid (folate), with and without pyridoxine (B6), for preventing and treating elevated serum homocysteine (HC), cystathionine (CT), methylmalonic acid (MMA), or 2-methylcitric acid (2-MCA) levels. These metabolites have been shown to be indicative of B12 and/or folic acid deficiencies. Further, it is likely that a B6 deficiency may be present with a B12 or folate deficiency. The method of the invention is also for use in lowering serum HC, CT, MMA, or 2-MCA in patients with or at risk for neuropsychiatric, vascular, renal or hematologic diseases. The method of the present invention eliminates the costly and time consuming steps of distinguishing between vitamin deficiencies once a deficiency is found by measurement of serum metabolite levels. The present invention is of particular benefit to the populations at risk for elevated serum metabolite levels, such as the people over the age of 65, and populations that have or are at risk for neuropsychiatric, vascular, renal and hematologic diseases.

摘要： An external power adapter prevents damage to contacts of power connectors by reducing current in-rush when the powered-up external power adapter is coupled to an information handling system. A control signal from the information handling system is used to initiate a voltage output of the external power adapter such that substantially no voltage is present on the contacts of the power connectors until the control signal is detected by the external power adapter. The external power adapter may determine the presence of an electrical load before applying the output voltage to the information handling system. The output voltage may be ramped from substantially no voltage to operating voltage over a period of time.

摘要翻译： 当外部电源适配器与信息处理系统耦合时，外部电源适配器可以通过减少电流冲击来防止电源连接器的触点损坏。 来自信息处理系统的控制信号用于启动外部电源适配器的电压输出，使得在外部电源适配器检测到控制信号之前，电源连接器的触点上基本上不存在电压。 外部电源适配器可以在将输出电压施加到信息处理系统之前确定电负载的存在。 输出电压可以在一段时间内从基本上没有电压斜坡到工作电压。
