Abstract: The present invention provides a portable holdable device, system and method for conducting a remote primary medical examination, the device comprising: at least one input means for collecting self generated measurements of at least one health characteristic of a patient; a wireless network connection for receiving and transferring at least one signal from the input means to a physician thereby, transferring physiological data of the patient. The wireless network connection communicates with a user interface platform (UIP); the UIP comprises a predetermined protocol comprising a plurality of medical characteristics and conditions selectable according to patient's current physical condition. The self generated measurements of the patient are collectable, storable and deliverable by said input means on demand by said physician.

Abstract: A wheeled object or vehicle, such as a hospital bed (10) comprises a main chassis or frame (12) supported by a plurality of supporting wheels or rollers (11), which define the vertices of a polygonal supporting surface (21). The bed, which is usually moved by a walking person, is provided with at least one motor driven driving device (15), including at least one driving wheel or roller (18), positioned within said polygonal supporting surface. The driving device is rotatable about a substantially vertical axis (14) in relation to the chassis or frame so as to change the angular position of the driving wheel (18) in relation to the chassis or frame. Biasing means, such as a compression spring or a pneumatic or hydraulic cylinder (22, 34) is provided for biasing the driving device (15) in a direction away from the main chassis or frame (12) and towards the supporting surface (21).

Abstract: A pressure relief device (100) for an inflatable tire comprises a body (102) having a chamber (116) therein and pressure relief mechanism for releasing air when the air pressure in the chamber exceeds a first predetermined pressure level. A conduit (108; 208) inter-connects an air inlet (110; 210) with an air outlet (112; 212). The conduit (108; 208) is provided in a pin (104; 204) arranged to slide axially in a passageway (106) in the body, the pin (104; 204) extending from the air inlet (110; 210) to the air outlet (112; 212) and being slidable between a first position in which it cannot release a stem of the tire, and a second position, in which it can release the stem.
