摘要:
A wearable cooling device to restore and/or maintain a user's thermal comfort is provided. The wearable cooling device is versatile and may cool various locations on a user's body, e.g., wrist, neck and ankle. The wearable cooling device utilizes a forced air device, e.g., a fan, that blows air onto a wetted piece of media which is in direct contact with a high thermally conductive element that is in contact with a user's skin or with a user's outer clothing. The wetted media is situated between the forced air device and the high thermally conductive element. When the forced air device is activated, the exhaust air passes onto/around the wetted media, which cools the high thermally conductive element, thereby cooling down the user. The wearable cooling device may be combined with watch functionality and the relative positioning of the wearable cooling device and watch functionality may be controlled for user benefit.

A low constant pressure injection molding machine forms molded parts by injecting molten thermoplastic material into a mold cavity at low constant pressures of 6,000 psi and lower. As a result, the low constant pressure injection molding machine includes a mold formed of easily machineable material that is less costly and faster to manufacture than typical injection molds.
摘要:
Disclosed herein is a method of injection molding at low, substantially constant melt pressures. Embodiments of the disclosed method now make possible a method of injection molding that is more energy—and cost—effective than conventional high-velocity injection molding processes. Embodiments of the disclosed method surprisingly allow for the filling of a mold cavity at low melt pressure without undesirable premature hardening of the thermoplastic material in the mold cavity and without the need for maintaining a constant temperature or heated mold cavity. Heretofore, it would not have been expected that a constant pressure method could be performed at low pressure without such premature hardening of the thermoplastic material when using an unheated mold cavity or cooled mold cavity.

A merchandising system, comprising: a consumer product. The merchandising system comprises at least one of the consumer product, packaging for the consumer product, and advertisement material pertaining to the consumer product. At least one merchandising system elements comprises indicia and/or an image that relates, or is analogous to, an attribute and/or targeted benefit of the consumer product. At least one merchandising system elements comprises a micro-optic structure capable of controlling the scatter of light impinging thereon so that the micro-optic structure reflects and/or transmits light in a field of view over which at least a portion of the indicia and/or image appears brighter relative to that outside the field of view.

The present invention provides for a method for producing a shaped tampon. The method includes the following steps: providing a mold having an inner surface, an outer surface, a first end, a second end, and an opening located in said second end; providing a tampon pledget; transferring said tampon pledget through said opening into said second end of said mold using a transfer member resulting in a tampon mold; self-sustaining said shaped tampon wherein said shaped tampon has an undercut; and removing said shaped tampon from said tampon mold.
摘要:
A tampon applicator for positioning a tampon inside a vaginal cavity. The tampon applicator includes an outer member, an inner member which is slidable within the outer member, and a tampon which is housed within the tampon applicator. The inner member has an effective length of less than about 58 mm.

Shaped tampons having varying perimeters are provided. Tampons disclosed comprise a mass of absorbent material formed into a self-sustaining shape comprising an insertion end, a withdrawal end, and a center region. The center region has at least one perimeter which is less than a largest insertion end perimeter and is less than a withdrawal end perimeter. The shaped tampons may also have varying average fiber density regions. The shaped tampons may be wrapped in tightly conforming wrappers which optionally aid in maintaining the self-sustaining shape prior to use. Optionally, the shaped tampons may utilize tampon applicators which enable a user to visually see the shape of the tampon prior to use.

Shaped tampons having varying volumes are provided. A tampon which is formed into a self-sustaining shape has an outer surface, which is substantially serpentine. The tampon also has continually changing volume. The shaped tampons may also have varying average fiber density regions. The shaped tampons may be wrapped in tightly conforming wrappers which optionally aid in maintaining the self-sustaining shape prior to use. Optionally, the shaped tampons may utilize tampon applicators which enable a user to visually see the shape of the tampon prior to use.
摘要:
An absorbent article having a main body portion, a pair of flaps joined to the main body portion, and an adhesive patch joined to each flap. Each adhesive patch comprises a first half and a second half releasably secured to the first half. The first half has adhesive zones and release zones, and the second half has adhesive zones and release zones which are removably securable to the release zones and adhesive zones of the first half.
