The bottom end of the treatment area marker has the means for keeping the device in a substantially upright position. The method of triage includes establishing one or more treatment areas, and erecting one or more treatment area markers to identify the treatment area. | 04-28-2011 |
20120256758 | Dishwasher (Water, Electricity, Detergent) Conservation System - Invention was created for the conservation of water. An ecofriendly apparatus is specifically designed for Kitchen Dishwasher use. According to R. Waskom, Colorado State University & Director, Colorado Water Institute, June 2010 states: “Changing water use habits is easy, saves money, and offers a way for a family to work together on conservation. Furthermore, running the dishwasher only when it's full can save 1,000 gallons of water per month.” Hence, to ensure communication among family members or roommates, a dishwasher conservation system could be used for facilitating communication/coordination of dishwashing task: “Clean/Unload”, “Dirty”, or “Load/Start” in order to save thousands of gallons of water per year per household. In addition, energy and money can be saved at the same time. | 10-11-2012 |
20140266768 | VEHICLE RIM ALERT SYSTEM AND METHOD - There is disclosed an improved illuminating vehicle wheel cover system that remotely activates a plurality of lights about a vehicle wheel in either a solid or flashing pattern. The lights can be in multiple color pairs and used for aesthetics or to indicate an emergency situation. The remote can be synchronized to the key fob of the vehicle and/or wirelessly connect to a preset medical emergency facility or the nearest facility geographically. | 09-18-2014 |
20140292529 | PERSON SUPPORT APPARATUS - A person support apparatus with an extendable mattress, a night light message display system, a screen key pendant, egress handle siderails, and various other features. The extendable mattress includes hinged extensions along the sides of the extendable mattress that are moved from a nested position to the extension position. The screen key pendant includes a plurality of screen keys that can be pressed to cycle through various control modes for the person support apparatus.

20140333451 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MONITORING POWER CONSUMPTION OF ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A system for monitoring power consumption of an electronic device, includes a MCU, a processor, and an indicating unit. The MCU includes an inter-integrated circuit and an analog to digital converter. The inter-integrated circuit records a digital output current value and voltage value of each digital electronic component of the electronic device. The analog to digital converter tests an analog output current value and voltage value of each analog electronic component of the electronic device. The analog output current value and voltage value are converted into digital information. The processor processes the digital output current value and voltage value and the digital information to generate a monitoring result. | 11-13-2014 |
