Joseph S. Power - Fraser MI
Frederick B. Ruszala - Sterling Heights MI

Assignee:

The Valeron Corporation - Troy MI

International Classification:

G06G 748

US Classification:

364801

Abstract:

A device for testing the operability of a blood pressure monitor. The device includes a signal generator for generating a plurality of different output signals simulating a variety of static blood pressure levels. A plurality of display devices are included, each device corresponding to one of the given static blood pressure levels. Control circuitry coupled to a single push button switch simultaneously selects a different blood pressure level to be generated and energizes its corresponding display device upon each sequential activation of the switch.

Kenneth J. Cook - Troy MI

International Classification:

H01H 4702
B27F 702

US Classification:

361179

Abstract:

A circuit and method for controlling the application of a fastener to a surface and a support, for use with a support sensor and an automatic fastener applying device. In the circuit, a comparator receives a primary signal from the sensor and generates an intermediate signal when a preselected condition is satisfied between the primary signal and the predetermined value. A controller generates a control signal in response to receipt of a secondary signal from the sensor and the intermediate signal. An actuator operates the automatic fastener applying device to apply the fastener to the surface and support in response to the control signal. The method includes comparing the primary signal from the sensor to the predetermined value, generating the intermediate signal when a preselected condition is satisfied, generating the control signal in response to the secondary signal from the sensor and the intermediate signal, and actuating the automatic fastener applying device in response to the control signal to apply the fastener to the surface and support.
