    摘要: A heated clothing item for a pet is provided that includes at least one heating element for heating the surface of the clothing contacting the pet wearing the clothing. The clothing can be heated evenly throughout the portions contacting the animal so that the animal is uniformly warmed. Alternatively, the heater element can be divided into multiple sections that can be selectively energized. Multiple sections can be useful to provide heat to only a selected area of an animal as when it has an arthritic hip or some other localized ailment.

    摘要: A fluid dispensing apparatus includes a pulse generator coupled to a pump that operates in discrete cycles. Each cycle includes a first part in which fluid is drawn into the pump through an inlet, and a second part in which fluid is expelled from the pump through an outlet. Each cycle results in a discrete, consistent volume of fluid being expelled. The pulse generator transmits discrete pulses to the pump, causing the pump to operate for a set number of cycles per pulse. The total number of cycles is a multiple of the number of pulses transmitted, so that the number of pulses determines the volume of fluid dispensed. Alternatively, the pump is driven through increments of the second part of the cycle, with the number of pulses supplied to the pump determining the proportion of the second part of the cycle completed, and therefore the volume of fluid dispensed.

    摘要: A system for monitoring contents of a tray located beneath a basket of a shopping cart as the latter is passed through an aisle adjacent a checkout station having a point of sale terminal capable of receiving a signal through a communications interface which signal prevents completion of a transaction unless overridden by operator input of one of a product and an override code. The system includes apparatus adjacent the aisle for detecting and signalling presence of the cart in the aisle, apparatus adjacent the aisle for scanning a space above the tray of the cart to detect and signal the presence of objects thereon, and apparatus responsive to signals from both said cart detection apparatus and the object detection apparatus to output said signal to the communications interface of the terminal, thereby forcing the operator to enter one of a product and an override code.

    摘要: An apparatus and method for dispensing a discrete volume of fluid. The apparatus includes a pump operable in discrete cycles, a power source connected to the pump, and a controller connected to at least one of the pump and the power source. The controller is configured to vary the power provided from the power source to the pump during at least a portion of each discrete cycle based on characteristics of the pump and the fluid. For example, the controller may vary power by controlling the duration of the provision of power, or by controlling the amplitude of the power. Varying the power is intended to improve the accuracy of the discrete volume of fluid dispensed. Correspondingly, the method of dispensing a discrete volume of fluid includes receiving information pertaining to the fluid to be dispensed, and adjusting a provision of power to a pump based on the information. The method may include adjusting the duration of the provision of power, or adjusting the amplitude of the provision of power.
