Abstract: A foldable truss member suitable for commercial displays includes a plurality of side members that are adjacently hinged together. The side members include support members and bridging members having extensions. The side members are joined into a foldable structure with a hinge member between the support member and extensions of adjacent side members. The truss includes a locking frame that is removably attached to ends of the side members. A display structure can be formed by connecting a locking frame between two truss members.

Abstract: Disclosed is a configurable housing for a personal electronic device having multiple operating modes wherein the configuration of the housing determines the operating mode of the personal electronic device. Moreover, each configuration is well suited and easy to use for the selected operating mode.

Abstract: A connector for attachment of a breathing tube to a respirator. The connector includes a first conduit and a transition conduit that form a connector body. A cantilevered snap latch extends from the connector body. A connector assembly including a recessed receiving structure on a respirator helmet adapted for receiving the connector.

Abstract: A suspension system for a helmet comprising a crown support assembly having a center portion and a plurality of strap portions extending radially from the center portion. The suspension system further comprises a headband and a plurality of connectors, wherein at least one of the plurality of connectors comprises an anchor portion for attaching the suspension system to a helmet, a first support member extending from the anchor portion and attached to one of the plurality of strap portions, a second support member spaced from the first support member, extending from the anchor portion, and attached to the headband, and a spacing member extending from one of the first and second support members toward the other of the first and second support members. The connector may be a single piece, and may be a molded piece. The connector may also comprise at least one more spacing member extending from one of the first and second support members toward the other of the first and second support members.

Abstract: An apparatus for deflecting a catheter or lead, for example a deflectable stylet or guidewire. The device includes an outer tubular member, a tension member mounted within the outer tubular member and coupled to the outer member and a handle mounted at the proximal end of the tubular member. The handle includes a major handle portion which has a rotatable knob located at its distal end, surrounding a proximal portion of the outer tubular member and provided with inwardly directed threading and an inner slider member provided with outwardly directed threading engaging the inwardly directed threading of the knob. The slider is advanced or retracted longitudinally within the handle by rotation of the knob but is rotationally fixed with regard to the major handle portion.

Abstract: A cartridge device for packaging an endless, organic photoreceptor belt of an electrophotographic printer. The cartridge device is a closed loop support structure manufactured of a resilient material around which the endless belt extends. The resilient support structure has a belt loading configuration, that substantially duplicates the configuration of the endless belt when the belt is mounted onto support rollers of the electrophotographic printer. By replicating the configuration of the support rollers, loading of the belt onto the rollers is facilitated using the cartridge device. The resilient support structure also has a compact configuration that requires less volume than the belt loading configuration. The compact configuration of the cartridge device minimizes shipping volume and storage space requirements for replacement photoreceptor belts.

Abstract: A head mounted display includes a head suspension apparatus and a display coupled thereto. In a stationary state, the display is maintained in a desired position relative to the head suspension apparatus. Further, in a release state, the display is always freely movable both vertically and horizontally relative to the head suspension apparatus. In addition, the display may also always be freely rotatable about an axis of the display as well as vertically and horizontally. The coupling of the display to the head suspension apparatus may be attained using a slide bar and hinge mechanism that forms a rigid triangular structure when the display is in the stationary state. Further, the head suspension apparatus may include an adjustable temporal support element for positioning about the circumference of a user's head and an adjustable crown support connected to the temporal support with the crown support including channels for allowing electrical connection lines to move freely therein.
