Appl. No.:

11/394071

Inventors:

Barry Carson - Highlands Ranch CO, US
David Carson - Larkspur CO, US
Kenneth Carson - Centennial CO, US

Assignee:

Xybix Systems, Inc. - Littleton CO

International Classification:

F16M 13/00

US Classification:

248429, 2482981, 248917, 248919, 248920, 248921, 211 26

Abstract:

An apparatus and method for mounting a plurality of display monitors is disclosed, wherein the apparatus is provided at a user's desk or workstation. The apparatus can be easily moved toward and away from the user such that all the monitors mounted on the apparatus move in unison in the direction indicated by the user. Accordingly, the apparatus accommodates the visual preferences of virtually all users of the desk or workstation so that eye and skeletal muscle fatigue are reduced.

International Classification:

B32B 41/00

US Classification:

156350, 156 64, 156245, 156250, 156256, 156353, 156362, 156363, 156364, 156378, 156379, 156510, 156517, 156527

Abstract:

An apparatus and process for use in an in-mold labeling application utilizes a rolled label sheet having a multiplicity of pre-printed non-adhesive labels and a pre-printed registration mark associated with each of the labels, a sensor for detecting each of the registration marks to enable alignment of the label sheet in a predetermined longitudinal position before labels are cut therefrom; a set of driven pinch rolls for moving it forward or backward; a circumferential die cutter for cutting one or more labels from the label sheet; a passive float roll following the die cutter for creating a controlled loop in the label sheet that permits the die cutter to operate independently of a vacuum conveyor that follows the float roll, the vacuum conveyor including a sensor to detect each of the registration marks for enabling alignment of the label sheet in a position of registration thereon; and a plurality of vacuum plenums along the vacuum conveyor for selectively receiving hold down vacuum from an external source for maintaining the label sheet in its position of registration during conveyance to a predetermined label removal position, the hold down vacuum then being released to permit removal, by an external pick and place device, of one or more of the previously-cut labels.

Inventors:

Barry Carson - Highlands Ranch CO, US
David Carson - Larkspur CO, US

International Classification:

G06F007/00
G06F017/00

US Classification:

700/090000, 707/104100

Abstract:

An ergonomic control system is disclosed for monitoring and/or controlling ergonomic settings of one or more adjustable furniture units at a user's worksite. The furniture units may include, e.g., a table, a chair, a worksite lighting mechanism, a thermostat, computer monitor, and computer keyboard, and a phone. The control system is distributed over a network, with a central administration subsystem receiving ergonomic current setting data regarding adjustable furniture units from worksites in use. Such current setting data is associated with the current worksite user and stored for subsequent comparison with preferred ergonomic settings thereby to identify users whose settings may be detrimental to their health.

Brian Goode - Winchester MA, US
David Carson - Roslindale MA, US

International Classification:

G06F 15/16

US Classification:

709218000

Abstract:

A system is disclosed for storing content received from a data communications network. The system includes at least one physical memory device for implementing a cache memory and a cache memory manager responsive to content received from at least two sources for associating an identifier with content stored in the at least one physical memory device that distinguishes content received from a first source from content received from a second source. The cache memory manager is further responsive to the identifiers for performing at least one cache management function differently for the content received from the first source than for the content received from the second source. In a mobile station embodiment that includes a HTTP browser the invention permits HTTP content received from a wireless network operator to be stored and managed separately from other received HTTP content.
