Abstract: Systems and methods described herein provide for pressure relief valve detection and monitoring. A valve assembly includes a striker and an indicator assembly separated by a diaphragm. The diaphragm may be elastically or permanently deformable. The striker may be connected to a relieve valve disk that releases in response to high fluid pressure at the valve. Movement of the striker may be detected by contact with the diaphragm or by sensors near the diaphragm, which may trigger the indicator assembly to provide an external indication of a valve opening.

Abstract: In at least one embodiment, a weight-bearing health equipment system for use with a user, the user being within the middle 90th percentile of dimensions of a user class. The weight-bearing health equipment system includes a fitness equipment base having a plate having a periphery and extending from a front end to a back end. The weight-bearing health equipment system further includes a framework connected to the plate including a first pair of elongated members, a second pair of elongated members, and a third pair of elongated members connected to the first and second pair of elongated members. The first pair elongated members are adapted to prevent contact with the user when the user enters, exits, or engages the system. The third pair elongated members are adapted to be outside the ergonomic sweep of the user's arms.

Abstract: In at least one embodiment, a component for use with a weight-bearing health equipment system having a user, the user being within the middle 90th percentile of dimensions of a user class includes a fitness equipment base having a back end and a plate having a periphery. The component includes a framework connected to the plate including a first pair of elongated members, a second pair of elongated members, and a third pair of elongated members connected to the first and second pair. The pair of first elongated members are configured such that the second ends are disposed closer to one another than the first ends. The first elongated member is adapted to prevent contact with the user when the user enters, exits, or engages the system. The longitudinal axis of the third elongated member is adapted to be outside the ergonomic sweep of the user's arms.
