Inventor: CHEN MIN-CHANG
IPC: A61B5/024
Filed: 2006-04-21
Abstract: A system adapted for use with an exercise machine for monitoring exercise performance includes: a pulse detecting unit adapted for detecting a pulse of a user;  a torque detecting unit adapted to detect a torque exerted by the user; a user interface unit for allowing user input of user-specific parameters and displaying data to the user; and a control unit electrically coupled to the other elements. The control unit determines a target exercise amount for the user with reference to the pulse, the torque,and the user-specific parameters.  The control unit further determines an actual exercise amount during exercise by the user with reference to the torque. The user interface unit displays the target exercise amount through an exercise indicating pattern that is selectively activated according to the actual exercise amount.

Title: Plug-in connections
Inventor: STRUETT ACHIM
IPC: B60D1/64
Filed: 2005-05-13
Abstract: Disclosed is a plug-in coupling system for joining cables between a tractor and a trailer. The invention also relates to the individual components, i.e. the semitrailer coupling and the plug-in connector on which the invention is implemented. The cables between the tractor and the trailer are usually plugged into each other by hand. Automatic systems have not been successful on the market so far. The aim of the invention is therefore to create a plug-in coupling system which allows the supply cables to be connected in a comfortable and operationally safe manner when the trailer is joined to and disconnected from the tractor. Said aim is achieved, among other things, by disposing the socket in a stationary manner below the insertion hole on the semitrailer coupling while arranging the contact points of the plug below the king pin on the plug-in connector.

Patent CA-2574813-A1 (CA)
Inventor: YONENO NORIYUKI
IPC: B60R25/24
Filed: 2005-03-25
Abstract: To solve problems such as contact failure by aging and malfunction by rain occurring in switches, including contact-type and capacitance-type switches, for detecting operation of a door handle. A piezoelectric sensor (4) has flexibility and can be installed in a door handle (3), and a small displacement of the door handle (3) can be detected at high sensitivity.  Consequently, even simply touching the door handle (3) provides a signal output with a sufficient level, enabling the touch to the door handle (3) to be detected. Further, it is not necessary to expose an electrode to the outside; therefore a door handle device is less likely to be affected by disturbance, dust adhering on it, rain, snow, etc. Further, since the piezoelectric sensor (4) is soft and deformable, it has less restriction conditions on the location of installation and requires less installation space.

Title: Cover for merchandising display bin of cold foodstuffs
Inventor: BICE JUSTIN
IPC: A47F3/04
Filed: 2007-10-29
Abstract: A fully collapsible cover encloses a merchandising display bin top with an ice tray on the bin top. The cover front panel is slanted rearward at an angle such that the front panel is approximately normal to the line of sight of the observing consumer to eliminate or minimize glare to the consumer's view.
