Abstract: This utility model discloses a reinforced scooter folding device which comprises an extension pipe mechanism. Both ends of the extension pipe mechanism are articulated with the baseboard and the head pipe of the scooter, respectively; the baseboard is articulated with the head pipe so that the baseboard, the head pipe and the extension pipe mechanism form a triangle; a locating mechanism is arranged on the extension pipe mechanism, by which the fixed pipe and the extension pipe can be located to unfolded state and folded state, respectively. So, the scooter can be folded or unfolded correspondingly. It is convenient to carry. Besides, it is convenient and fast to unfold and fold the scooter. A safe locking device is also mounted on the extension pipe mechanism. When the ball components fail under the unfolded state, the safe locking device can make sure the scooter will not retract and fold immediately. Therefore, the folding device is safer and more reliable.

Abstract: The present invention relates to underwear for men. Information that it is good to maintain the underbody (genital organs) of men cool have been already been attested in scientific theses of foreign universities. It has been proved that the spermatogenic ability of men (genital organs) is further higher in an environment lower by 2 to 4 Celsius than body temperature. However, despite the above-mentioned scientific evidence, underwear for men up to now has been produced in the same simple shape for protection against the outside without distinction from underwear for women. The present invention relates to 21 century underwear for men which is different from conventional underwear for men and which causes improvement in skin health and reproductive ability in a sanitary and health manner. The 21 century underwear for men of the present invention was invented to accomplish the following two purposes: first, separating the genital organ area (testicles) of men from the groin area (thigh) so as to keep skin healthy from eczema and avoid the influence of body temperature, and second, forming ventilation openings at least in three directions under the genital organ (testicles) of men so as to keep the genital organ area further cool and to thus healthily and naturally (without chemicals) improve the reproductive ability of men. That is, the present invention is novel 21 century underwear for men which 1) prevents skin disease such as eczema which may be commonly caused between the groin and scrotum of men and separates the genital organ and the body (thigh) area so as to separate the genital organ from the body heat, and 2) forms ventilating openings in three or more directions to enable constant ventilation in the genital organ area and to maintain a more sanitary and cool environment, thus providing further good influences to the reproductive ability of men.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of de-icing wind turbines of a wind park. 
     At least a first wind turbine (WT1) and a second wind turbine (WT3) are assigned to the wind park (WP). The first wind turbine (WT1) produces a first electrical output power (Pout1), which exceeds a first power threshold value (PTV1). The second wind turbine (WT3) produces a second electrical output power (Pout3), which falls below a second power threshold value (PTV2). The first output power (Pout1) and the second output power (Pout3) are reported to a power controller (PC)of the wind park (WP). The power controller (PC) detects that the first electrical output (Pout1) power exceeds the first power threshold value (PTV1) and the power controller (PC) detects that the second electrical output power (Pout3) falls below the second power threshold value (PTV2). The power controller (PC) initiates a de-icing procedure being executed at the second wind turbine (WT3) until the second electrical output power (Pout3) exceeds the first threshold value (PTV1).

Abstract: The application relates to a hearing assistance device comprising an implanted part adapted for being implanted at a user's ear. The application further relates to a method of operating a hearing assistance device. The object of the present application is to improve identification and processing of recorded nerve response data in an implanted part of a hearing assistance device. The problem is solved in that the implanted part comprises a) A multitude of electrodes adapted for being located in the cochlea in proximity of an auditory nerve of the user; b) Stimulation circuitry electrically coupled to a stimulation electrode during a stimulation time period and configured for applying a stimulation signal to the stimulation electrode; c) Measurement circuitry electrically coupled to a recording electrode during a measurement time period and configured to measure a signal picked up by the recording electrode in response to said stimulation signal and providing a measured signal; d) A control unit configured to control the timing of the application of the stimulation signal in the stimulation time period and to control the measurement time period relative to the stimulation time period; and e) A processing unit configured to record the measured signal in the measurement time period and to identify a response from the auditory nerve based on said measured signal. This has the advantage of reducing the bandwidth requirement of a communication link to an external part during fitting. The invention may e.g. be used for cochlear implant type hearing aids, in particular during the fitting of such hearing aid to a particular user.
