| 20090078846 | Force sensing clevis insert - A sensor includes a clevis insert for reception within a first bore of a clevis. The clevis insert is configured to accommodate a latch pin. A strain sensing element is operatively associated with the clevis insert for detecting mechanical strain imparted to the clevis insert when a force acts on the clevis insert through the pin. The invention also provides a method of retrofitting a cowl latch assembly. | 03-26-2009 |
| 20130187022 | LOCKING COUNTERBALANCE FOR A CMM - An articulated arm CMM comprises a plurality of transfer members, a plurality of articulation members connecting at least two transfer members to each other, a coordinate acquisition member at a distal end, and a base at a proximal end. The articulated arm CMM also comprises (1) a ratchet lock for restricting the motion of at least one transfer member in at least one direction of rotation and (2) a clutch mechanism for allowing limited rotation of the at least one transfer member upon application of a high amount of force upon at least one transfer member. | 07-25-2013 |
| 20150041615 | EXTRA CORPOREAL LIFE SUPPORT LEVELLING PLATFORM - The present invention provides a leveling platform for an i LA®/external lung device which can be patient adjusted. The platform includes upper and lower planar support members pivotally attached to each other along one side of each member and the opposed side includes an adjustment mechanism for pivoting the top support member with respect to the bottom support members to provide a level adjustment. The top support member includes a retaining mechanism for holding an i LA® ECLS device and level indicators to indicate whether or not the top support member is level. The bottom support member rests on a surface such as a bed or chair to which the platform can be secured. Once the ECLS device is connected to the patient and supported in the ECLS device is mounted on the top surface of the leveling platform and if required, the adjustment mechanism is engaged by the clinician or patient to level the ECLS device. The leveling platform safely secures an i LA®/ECLS device to a bed, chair, wheelchair, table, pole, walker or cart. The leveling platform disclosed herein addresses the current clinical requirements and safety issues associated with the i LA®/ECLS devices. | 02-12-2015 |
