20030045826, Mar 6, 2003

Filed:

Aug 28, 2002

Appl. No.:

10/230248

Inventors:

Nicholas Meyer - Plymouth MN, US

International Classification:

A61F013/00
A61F013/06

US Classification:

602/062000

Abstract:

The forearm support band with direct pressure monitoring provides a means by which patients may optimize treatment of medial or lateral epicondylitis (golfer's elbow or tennis elbow, respectively) with the use of optimal pressure application. Unlike previous forearm support bands, this band allows patients to directly read the pressure of application and appropriately adjust the band's tightness This results in the correct amount of pressure to the forearm musculature, thereby minimizing risks and gaining optimal therapeutic benefits.

International Classification:

H04L 12/24
H04W 24/04

Abstract:

Predictive wireless connectivity diagnostics for a wireless mesh network in a process control system includes generating predicted pinch points and potential pinch points in response to a connectivity condition. The connectivity condition is an anticipated failure of a communication ability within the wireless mesh network. The predicted pinch points are generated as a function of the failure of the communication ability and communication paths within the wireless mesh network. The potential pinch points are generated as a function of the failure of the communication ability and the number of neighbors in direct wireless communication for each wireless node. The potential pinch point is a wireless node that has less than a threshold number of neighboring wireless communication devices in direct wireless communication with the wireless node.

Inventors:

- Shakopee MN, US
Nicholas Edward Meyer - Chaska MN, US

International Classification:

G01L 19/06
G01L 9/00

Abstract:

A pressure sensor includes a base having at least one high-pressure contact portion and a diaphragm positioned over the base and having an external top surface facing away from the base and internal surfaces facing the base. The internal surfaces comprising a raised perimeter surrounding an interior, a raised central boss within the interior, and a raised boss arm contiguous with and extending from the raised perimeter toward the interior. At least one of the raised boss arm and raised central boss are aligned with and contact a high-pressure contact portion of the base during an over-pressure event.

Abstract:

An industrial service device fleet management system implements an organized and easy to use methodology to manage the digital content stored on each of a plurality of portable or stationary devices used in a plant, such as portable maintenance devices, to assure that each of the portable devices receives or implements only the content that it is supposed to have and is upgraded at the appropriate time to include new content, features, etc. The fleet management system includes a memory for storing information related to the fleet of portable or stationary devices including device identifications, device descriptions, end user names and privileges, the current content of each of the portable devices, and templates defining configuration parameters for the portable or stationary devices. The system also includes a content downloader that obtains, stores, and downloads content (such as software and firmware upgrades, additional features, applications, drivers, knowledge articles, etc.) for execution or display in various ones of the portable or stationary devices, includes a content decider module that analyzes when and if various ones of the portable or stationary devices should be provided additional or new content, and includes a notification system that notifies users of the portable or stationary devices of the need to upgrade or provide new content to the portable or stationary devices.

H04L 29/08
H04W 72/04
H04W 84/18

Abstract:

A system and method for configuring wireless process mesh networks is provided. The system includes a processor, user interface module, memory, and an analysis module. The user interface module is configured to generate a user interface to receive user-provided mesh network design parameters. Memory is coupled to the processor and stores information indicative of a plurality of wireless process mesh networks and associated wireless field devices. The analysis module is configured to analyze the information indicative of the plurality of wireless process mesh networks and generate an alternate wireless mesh network configuration based on the user-provided mesh network design parameters.

Inventors:

- Shakopee MN, US
Nicholas E. Meyer - Chaska MN, US

International Classification:

G01L 9/00

Abstract:

A sensor includes a diaphragm having a bonding portion and a main boss separated from the bonding portion by at least one channel, the main boss having a first side face, a second side face and a chamfered corner face connecting the first side face to the second side face. A base of the sensor has a first contact area aligned with the main boss and separated from the main boss, wherein the bonding portion of the diaphragm is bonded to the base. At least one sensing element senses movement of the diaphragm.
