Abstract: An awning control system provides automatic retraction of an extended awning (100) upon detection of awning motion in multiple dimensions caused by windy conditions. The 5 awning control system includes a micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS)-based accelerometer for motion-based auto-retraction. A single, combined motion sensor/controller module (116) may be located in the motor head (108) and connected to switches (120) and a 12V power source (136) through wires routed along or within the awning framework. The control system operates by gauging the vertical, horizontal 0 (inward/outward), and lateral motion of the leading edge or lead rail of the awning when in a fully or partially extended position. When persistent motion or gust exceeds preset thresholds, the control system will automatically engage the motor (108) to retract the awning (100). The control system provides full automatic retraction of the awning (100) unless halted or interrupted by additional user input. Manual switching also controls the 5 extension and retraction of the awning (100). ,ON RETRAC 122 118a(3) 11 8a(2) 122. - 024 '8a(2) OFF EXTEND 124 FIGFB FIGI.C

Title: Personal carrier-mounted dog leash with distal stiffener
Inventor: LEON MICHAEL A
IPC: A01K27/00
Filed: 2010-08-05
Granted: 2015-04-02
Abstract: A dog leash having a stiffener and a mast, the latter connected to a clamp by a flexible coupling. Moored to the clamp by a cord, the stiffener protrudes outwardly from the mast's end distal from the clamp. Built up by encasing a cord segment and the base of a clip in a semi-rigid plastic sheath, the stiffener directly links the clip to the mast. Because, in use, the stiffener and the clip ride attached to the dog's collar without slapping or flopping around randomly so as to confuse the animal, the leash can transmit nonverbal communication free of extraneous signals from the user of a personal carrier to a tethered dog. The dog can be then trained quickly and easily controlled, making possible the leash's use not only on bicycles but also, once they have been retrofitted with a universal mounting bracket, on wheelchairs and other personal carriers.
