Appl. No.:

09/876313

Inventors:

James K Hudson - Dallas TX 75205

International Classification:

A47K 108

US Classification:

2483112, 248548, 224926, 206503, 206514, 206562

Abstract:

The present invention is a tray assembly comprising a holder, at least one tray, at least one securement device, and at least one support element. The holder is designed to fit into the cup holder in an automotive car console and accommodates one beverage container. The trays are joined to and extend outwardly from the holder and accommodate at least one food item. At least one tray is downwardly recessed to better accommodate the food items. The tray assembly is designed so that a plurality of the tray assemblies can be stacked together vertically. The arrangement of the trays is asymmetrical in such a way that a plurality of trays can be placed in closer proximity to a person or object, but do not upset the overall balance of the tray. The tray assembly contains at least one aperture in at least one tray, wherein the aperture acts as a receptacle for at least one container and maintains the containers in the vertical position. The securement devices are joined to the holder and allow the tray assembly to conform to the shape of the automotive cup holder.

International Classification:

B60Q 146

US Classification:

340 82

Abstract:

Sets of lamps arranged in adjacent opposed arrowhead configurations with each lamp energized by means of individual switching transistors having base drive voltages coupled through a multi-position switch to timing signals. The timing signals are generated by sequentially actuated flip-flops energized in response to impulses from a master clock and gating circuitry. Opposite directions are indicated by selectively energizing three sets of lamps forming three adjacent arrowheads, sequentially, in one direction, three similar sets in another direction, or by steadily illuminating one set of lamps forming an arrowhead while sequentially energizing lamps forming a shaft.

International Classification:

US Classification:

604246

Abstract:

Three embodiments of a metering unit (10, 140, 200) are provided for metering fluid from a container (14) for infusion into a patient. The first embodiment of the metering unit (10) includes a cassette (26) formed of halves (28, 30). The halves (28, 30) each have a concave reservoir portion (36) formed on the inner face (32) thereon. Entry and exit channels (38, 42) extend from the reservoir portions adjacent entry and exit orifices (40, 44). Entry and exit port portions (46, 50) are formed in each half (28, 30). Flexible entry and exit valves (58, 64, 86 and 88) are movable between an open position, permitting fluid to flow through the orifices, to a closed position, preventing fluid from flowing through the orifices. The halves are separated by a flexible diaphragm (70) which divides a reservoir (76) into first and second compartments (78, 80). One entry valve is opened to permit fluid from the entry port (82) to flow into one compartment, the fluid flowing into the compartment moving the flexible diaphragm to force the fluid in the other compartment out to the exit port (84).
