Patent GB-2569235-A (GB)
Title: Tablet dispenser
Inventor: ROBERT ANTHONY FROST
IPC: B65D83/04
Filed: 2018-11-23
Abstract: A tablet dispenser 400 has a pivotal 410 arm that can hold a tablet magazine 411 and a mechanism to move a tablet from the magazine into a glass. The arm can pivot 120 degrees from an open position where the magazines open end is raised to a vertical position flush with the dispenser body where the open end is lowest so that denture cleaning tablets cannot fall out when changing the magazine but can during dispensing. Ideally the pivot axis is near the magazines open end and the dispenser has a slidable cover to selectively block the open end. The cover can be biased closed but open upon pivoting of the arm, or can be electrically actuated. The dispensing mechanism can include two plates, each with an aperture through which a tablet fits; with the upper one reciprocating due to a motor driven scotch yolk to move its aperture from the magazine open end to overlapping the aperture on the lower plate. A spring at the top of the arm could push the magazine against the dispensing mechanism. The dispenser can also have a cup stand, a diagonal chute and a screen to display dispensing info.

IPC: A47K5/16
Filed: 2018-11-30
Abstract: A foam dispensing apparatus comprises a liquid storage bottle 31, an air-liquid mixing pump 32, a sensor 33, a foam nozzle 34, a control circuit board 35 and a power supply device 36. The power device 36, the air-liquid mixing pump 32 and the sensor 33 are respectively and electrically connected with the control circuit board 35. The foam nozzle 34 is connected in communication with the air-liquid mixing pump 32, and the sensor 33 is arranged on one side of the foam nozzle 34. The liquid storage bottle 31 is connected in communication with the air-liquid mixing pump 32 through a pipe 37, and the pipe 37 is provided with a check valve 38. When sensor 3 is triggered, the air-liquid mixing pump 32 is actuated by the control circuit board 35. Air and a liquid for foaming in the liquid storage bottle 31 are introduced into and mixed in the air-liquid mixing pump 32, and are then squeezed out from the foam nozzle 34. The one-way valve 38 prevents the liquid for foaming from flowing backwards in the pipe as well as opening a channel for facilitating movement of the liquid therethrough. Later embodiments relate to a foam generating dispenser.

Inventor: BRYAN BARNARD
IPC: G01N23/2273
Filed: 2019-11-07
Abstract: Charged particles, received from an energy dispersive spectroscopic analyser 14 as a charged particle beam 12, are accelerated towards a detector 16. The accelerated charged particles are received at an array of detecting pixels, the array of detecting pixels forming the detector. The charged particles arriving at the detector have a spread in the energy dispersive direction. The apparatus includes an electrostatic lens element 18 to accelerate the particles and focus and magnify the beam. The invention enables low energy particles (<100eV) to be detected directly at a pixelated detector array without the use of an electron multiplier such as a microchannel plate (MCP) between the analyser and detector.

Inventor: CRAIG STEVEN WRIGHT
IPC: G07F17/32
Filed: 2019-11-27
Abstract: A computer-implemented method of pseudo-randomly selecting game elements for use in playing a game. An oracle obtains a set of seed data items comprising one or more user seed data items generated by a respective user; a sequence of public keys; and a list of game elements. A total number of public keys corresponds to a total number of game elements, such as playing cards. The oracle generates a first output of a game transaction. The first output comprises the sequence of public keys and a script configured to generate at least one pseudorandom number based on the set of seed data items. The script is configured to generate a list of the public keys based on the at least one pseudorandom number. An order of public keys in the list is different to the order of public keys in the sequence. The list of public keys can be used to represent shuffled playing cards for use in a game of poker. The output is preferably included in a blockchain, allowing for provably fair games to be conducted with players being able to check the fairness of the game rather than having to trust a conventional online casino operator.
