Filed:

Jul 14, 2006

Appl. No.:

11/487174

Inventors:

William A. Barrow - Beaverton OR, US
Maria E. Crouser - Portland OR, US
Wayne Patrick Gentry - Portland OR, US
Andrew Mitchell Robinson - Fairview OR, US

Assignee:

Via Optronics, LLC - Hillsboro OR

International Classification:

G02F 1/13

US Classification:

349192, 349 74, 349117, 349119, 349187, 349193

Abstract:

A tool for use in affixing an optical component, such as glass, to a liquid crystal display (LCD) using a silicone gel mixture includes, in one embodiment, a unitary metallic platen that is shaped to define a central window. A narrow shelf is defined around the central window to support the optical component during the application of the silicone gel thereon. A upwardly extending partition is formed onto the top surface of the platen around the shelf to retain the optical component fixed in place on the platen during the assembly process. A plurality of identical, spaced apart, upwardly extending standoffs are formed onto the free end of the partition to support the LCD a fixed distance away from the optical component. In this manner, the standoffs ensure that the layer of silicone gel deposited between the optical component and the LCD is uniform in thickness to optimize performance.

US Classification:

1562755, 156329, 427289, 428343, 428355 R

Abstract:

Embodiments of methods and systems to generate an enhanced layered display system are described herein. In one embodiment, a method of generating an enhanced layered display system is provided including dispensing an optical bonding liquid onto a first substrate; forming an adhesive preform unit by curing the optical bonding liquid on the first substrate; and laminating the adhesive preform unit to a second substrate to form the enhanced layered display system, where one of the first substrate and the second substrate is a display.

US Classification:

349192

Abstract:

A tool for use in affixing an optical component, such as glass, to a liquid crystal display (LCD) using a silicone gel mixture of dimethyl siloxane and a vinyl terminated dimethyl polymer includes, in one embodiment, a unitary metallic platen that is shaped to define a central window. A narrow shelf is defined around the outer periphery of the central window, the shelf serving to support the optical component during the application of the silicone gel thereon. A upwardly extending partition is formed onto the top surface of the platen around the shelf, the partition serving, among other things, to retain the optical component fixed in place on the platen during the assembly process. A plurality of identical, spaced apart, upwardly extending standoffs are formed onto the free end of the partition and are designed to support the LCD a fixed distance away from the optical component. In this manner, it is to be understood that the plurality of standoffs ensure that the layer of silicone gel deposited between the optical component and the LCD is uniform in thickness to optimize performance.

G16H 40/63
G16H 50/20

Abstract:

A patient fall detection system includes a computer and multiple transceivers mounted at fixed locations in a healthcare facility. The transceivers are electronically coupled to the computer. A patient identification tag is worn by a patient and includes a tag transceiver. The high-accuracy locating system monitors a location of the patient ID tag via signals from the tag transceiver to determine whether a patient has entered a bathroom. The computer monitors at least one of an elevation of the patient ID tag in the bathroom, an elevation drop of the patient ID tag in the bathroom, or a time that the patient ID tag has been in the bathroom to determine whether the patient has fallen.
