B62M 114

US Classification:

2802501, 2803041, 29742326, 297DIG 4

Abstract:

The foldable frame of the wheelchair has an opening at the lower rear part thereof for receiving a commode or a tray which supports a removable pail. The seat has front and side cutouts to provide under seat access dual density supporting foam. The seat also has laterally projecting wings at the front thereof to facilitate lateral transfer of a patient. The armrests at each side of the wheelchair pivot upwardly and rearwardly of the chair. Locking members are provided for locking each arm support in its lowered position; and a release lever can be pushed to unlock each arm support. A pair of footrest supports are each contoured so as not to have any sharp edges and are provided with non-slip surfaces and a drain hole. Each footrest support is pivoted to a split block which is slidable vertically along an arm. The block can be tightened and loosened by a lever.

A61G 7/018

US Classification:

5 861, 5 811 R, 5618, 5613

Abstract:

A prone cart for carrying a patient has a frame, a pair of independently powered and suspended drive wheels located centrally off the frame and an articuable body support having relatively moveable tray, chest support, abdominal support and leg support sections connected end to end for carrying a patient prone between a lowered position where the patient lies in a horizontal orientation to a raised position where the patient's head and chest are elevated with respect to the patient's abdomen and legs. Linkage mechanisms move the sections between the raised and lowered positions. A pair of independently suspended drive wheels mounted centrally of the frame is controllable so that each may each rotate independently in clockwise or counterclockwise sense so that the cart may be maneuvered in confined spaces with a zero turning radius.

International Classification:

F16L 11/15
A01G 20/47

Abstract:

An outlet tube includes a first rib, a second rib, and a channel positioned between the first rib and the second rib. The first rib extends from a surface of the tube. The first rib tapers between a first thickness and a second thickness. The second rib extends from the surface of the tube. The second rib tapers between the first thickness and the second thickness. The channel has a first width between adjacent first thicknesses and a second width between adjacent second thicknesses. The first width is greater than the second width.

International Classification:

B25F 5/00
B21D 39/04
B25F 5/02

Abstract:

An example hydraulic tool includes: a fluid reservoir; a pump; an electric motor; a cylinder; a piston; a first trigger button; a second trigger button; and a controller configured to perform operations comprising: receiving a first signal when the first trigger button is triggered, responsively, causing the electric motor to rotate in a first rotational direction, thereby: (i) causing the pump to provide fluid to the cylinder, and (ii) causing the piston to move in a first linear direction, thereafter, receiving a second signal when the second trigger button is triggered, and responsively to the second signal, causing the electric motor to rotate in a second rotational direction opposite the first rotational direction, thereby: (i) opening a fluid path from the cylinder to the fluid reservoir, and (ii) causing the piston to move in a second linear direction opposite the first linear direction.

Abstract:

A weather radar with an integrated flat plate slotted array antenna system mounted to a motorized, gimbaled platform. The integrated antenna system includes a substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) receiver/transmitter antenna integrated with other printed circuit board (PCB) layers. The PCB includes radar transmitter, receiver and processing circuits configured to communicate with weather radar display and controller units. A protective shield provides radio-frequency (RF) shielding and mechanical support for the integrated antenna system.

Inventors:

- Morristown NJ, US
Robert J. Jensen - Renton WA, US

International Classification:

G01S 13/95

Abstract:

Systems, methods, and devices for processing a radar return signal to estimate reflectivity values. An example weather radar system includes one or more antennas configured to transmit a radar signal generated by a transmitter and deliver a radar return signal to a receiver. The example weather radar system further includes one or more processors configured to sample the radar return signal, determine a first signal power measurement of the sampled radar return signal based on Doppler signal processing, determine a quality of the first signal power measurement, and estimate reflectivity values of the sampled radar return signal based on the first signal power measurement when the quality is above a threshold. The example weather radar system further includes memory configured to store the estimated reflectivity values.
