International Classification:

H04B001/38

US Classification:

455090300, 455575100

Abstract:

According to one embodiment of the invention, a method of operation involves concurrently receiving spread-spectrum wireless signals from a plurality of sources by a listening device for a hearing-impaired user. These spread-spectrum wireless signals comprise audio in a digital format. The audio is filtered so as to retain audio within a specified audible frequency range set by the hearing-impaired user. The filtered audio is converted into an analog format, and thereafter, is subsequently output for perception by the user. This provides a cost-effective solution for the hearing-impaired in order to avoid unwanted ambient noise normally amplifier by conventional hearing aids.

International Classification:

H05B 37/02

US Classification:

315291000

Abstract:

According to one embodiment of the invention, a candle emulation device comprises a light source, a light source controller and an optional fragrance-release mechanism. The light source controller is coupled to the light source and is adapted to control the light source in order to produce a lighting effect that emulates lighting from a candle flame. The fragrance-release mechanism is adapted to release a fragrance into air surrounding the candle emulation device.

Filed:

Jun 17, 1997

Appl. No.:

8/877615

Inventors:

Bradley C. Davis - Irvine CA
Michael K. Boone - Laguna Beach CA

Assignee:

Boone International, Inc. - Corona CA

International Classification:

B32B 900

US Classification:

428100

Abstract:

A multi-purpose hook for a message board having an edge along its front surface, the hook including a substantially flat extension member having first and second ends, a retaining grip extending from the first end, and a curved hook extending from the second end. The hook generally curves in a plane oriented substantially perpendicular to a plane defined by the extension member, thereby preferably defining a portion of a cylinder, preferably defining a substantially half-cylindrical cross-sectional shape. The retaining grip includes a substantially flat portion extending between front and rear portions of the retaining grip, and preferably extends substantially perpendicularly from the first end of the extension member. The retaining grip is attachable to an edge of a fixed member, such as a frame of a message board, the retaining grip including a tip extension and a lip on the front and rear portions, respectively, for engaging similarly shaped front and rear channels in the edge of the fixed member.

Assignee:

Boone International, Inc. - Corona CA

International Classification:

B32B 302

US Classification:

428 81

Abstract:

A mail holder for a message board having a retaining grip, an elongate rear portion extending from the retaining grip, a bottom portion extending substantially perpendicularly from the elongate rear portion, and an elongate front portion extending substantially perpendicularly from the bottom portion towards the retaining grip, the rear, bottom, and front portions defining a cavity for retaining one or more planar objects therein. The front portion may be biased to provide a slight clamping force towards the rear portion to retain the planar objects between the front and rear portions. The rear portion may be substantially flat and the front portion curved towards the rear portion as it extends away from the bottom portion. The bottom portion may have waves formed therein extending generally parallel to the front and rear portions. The retaining grip has a substantially "C" shape, including a substantially flat portion extending between front and rear portions.
