Automatic Low Tire Pressure Detector

US Patent:
6571481, Jun 3, 2003
Filed:
May 16, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/514457
Inventors:
Jeffrey N. Weiss - Parkland FL 33067
International Classification:
G01B 520
US Classification:
33203, 33336, 33600, 340442, 340689
Abstract:
A device for automatically detecting a change in inclination beyond a threshold level is provided. Preferably the change in inclination results from a reduction of pressure for a tire associated with a vehicle. In the preferred embodiment mercury tilt switches are preferably placed at right angles to each other and are placed at least substantially parallel to the horizontal plane. The contacts of the tilt switch can be at least substantially vertically oriented to further reduce spurious activation. The tilt switches are preferably connected to a timing circuit such that only a preset time duration activation will result in a signal being sent to a notification device, such as a light, sound, or other indication member or device.

Eye Self-Test Device

US Patent:
6733131, May 11, 2004
Filed:
Feb 15, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/784370
Inventors:
Jeffrey N. Weiss - Parkland FL 33067
International Classification:
A61B 302
US Classification:
351223
Abstract:
The novel design of the eye self-test device increases patient compliance by reminding the patient to self-test and allows the patients doctor to monitor compliance with the testing regimen. The data may be recorded and the patient notified if a change in vision necessitates examination by the doctor. The test is robustly manufactured to withstand breakage and is lightweight and portable. Its preferred method of attachment is such that it is capable of adhering to any vertically visible surfaces such that the conspicuous location of the test should encourage an improvement in testing compliance. Patient information, including instructions for testing and the doctors name and telephone number for contacting in case of emergency may be provided internal or external to the device. In an alternative embodiment, an event reminder is provided which can also include an eye-self test.

Apparatus And Method For Cannulating Retinal Blood Vessels

US Patent:
6916000, Jul 12, 2005
Filed:
Sep 7, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/949071
Inventors:
Jeffrey N. Weiss - Parkland FL, US
International Classification:
F16M013/00
US Classification:
248558, 248 681, 2481251, 2482304, 2482306, 606130
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for safely cannulating a retinal blood vessel is described. The apparatus consists of a micropipette/microcannula, micromanipulator and positioner mounted to a base, which is attached to a wrist rest commonly used in eye surgery. The micropipette/microcannula is connected to tubing such that a medication may be injected through the micropipette/microcannula into the blood vessel or conversely, a small quantity of material may be removed from a blood vessel. Alternatively, a catheter, wire or stent may be placed through the micropipette/microcannula to treat or diagnose an area remote from the insertion site. The ability to cannulate a retinal blood vessel should be efficacious in the treatment of vein and artery occlusion, ocular tumors and other retinal, vascular and optic nerve disorders that would benefit from diagnosis and/or treatment.

Diabetes Detection Method

US Patent:
5025785, Jun 25, 1991
Filed:
Oct 6, 1989
Appl. No.:
7/418109
Inventors:
Jeffrey N. Weiss - Coconut Creek FL
International Classification:
A61B 600
US Classification:
128633
Abstract:
A noninvasive method for detecting the presence of diabetes mellitus and for monitoring physical changes caused by that disease is disclosed. In performing the method, a beam of light from a low powered laser is directed at a clear site in the lens of a patient's in vivo eye. The variations in intensity of the light back-scattered from the site are utilized to derive a measurement of the diffusion coefficient. Alternatively, or in addition to taking measurements from the lens, measurements may be taken from the conjunctiva, the cornea, or the retina of the vivo eye. It has been found that the diffusion coefficient decreases more rapidly versus age in persons having diabetes mellitus than in nondiabetic persons of comparable age. By relating the variations in intensity of back-scattered light with the patient's age and by comparison with corresponding measurements taken from nondiabetic persons of comparable age, the presence of diabetes mellitus can be determined. Measurement of the back-scattered light also permits the amount of damage caused by that disease and the efficacy of treatment to be assessed.

Diabetes Detection Method

US Patent:
4895159, Jan 23, 1990
Filed:
Nov 19, 1984
Appl. No.:
6/672717
Inventors:
Jeffrey N. Weiss - Coconut Creek FL
International Classification:
A61B 600, A61B 1000
US Classification:
128665
Abstract:
A method for detecting the presence of diabetes mellitus and for monitoring eye lens changes resulting from the disease is disclosed. The method involves ascertaining the diffusion coefficient of the lens of a patient's eye by directing a light beam from a low-power laser at a clear site in the lens of an in vivo eye and measuring the intensity of the back-scattered light. It has been found that the diffusion coefficient decreases more rapidly versus age in patients suffering from diabetes mellitus than for nondiabetic patients. Thus by comparing the intensity of back scattered light with the patient's age the presence of diabetes, the amount of damage caused by the disease and the efficacy of treatment can be detected.

Selective Telephone Blocker With Timer

US Patent:
7957515, Jun 7, 2011
Filed:
May 3, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/848753
Inventors:
Jeffrey N. Weiss - Parkland FL, US
International Classification:
H04M 3/42
US Classification:
37921002, 37937301
Abstract:
Disclosed is a selective telephone call blocker, preferably with timer. The user preferably sets the current time and one or more beginning and ending time periods during which the call block feature is active. The user then selects, one or more codes, such as two letter or number code(s). During the period of time in which the call block feature is active the device will automatically ask the caller to enter the code in order for the call to be completed. If the correct code is entered within a preset time period the call will be transmitted to the telephone or answering machine. If an incorrect code or no code is entered, the invention preferably repeats the request for correct code entry. If within a next preset time period the correct code is not entered the call will be disconnected. Preferably, the call block feature is not operational if the receiving phone is in use.
