  • Patent number: 11523682
    Abstract: Collapsible table assembly includes a top panel, a first side panel and a second side panel selectively, each engaged with the bottom facing surface of the top panel. A front panel pivotably connects with the top panel, the first side panel, and the second side panel. A latch carried by the front panel engages with a corresponding latch carried on the top panel when the top panel is pivotably rotated towards the front panel in a stowing position. The first side panel and second side panel are pivotable towards the front panel. In operation, the assembly is moved from an assembled position to the stowed position when the first side panel and second side panel are pivoted towards the front panel, and the top panel is pivoted until the corresponding latch on the top panel and front panel are engaged.

  • Publication number: 20140165884
    Abstract: A WorknStand is an apparatus which quickly unfolds and sits on an existing desk structure. It permits the user to stand while working. It folds perfectly flat, allowing easy transportation and shipping. Its hinge structure is designed in such a way that it will resist folding when open and can be leaned on with a sturdy feel. It also securely locks in both the folded and unfolded positions.

  • Patent number: 7574353
    Abstract: The present invention is a method and apparatus in a data processing system that includes a Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) communication system for improving transmit and receive data paths. The communication system includes a digital signal processing unit. The digital signal processing unit includes a mandatory coder/decoder (codec) that does not include an internal packet loss concealment (PLC) function, an internal voice activity detection (VAD) function, an internal comfort noise generation (CNG) function, or an internal discontinuous transmission generation (DTX) function. The digital signal processing unit also includes an enhanced codec that includes any combination of the following modules all internal to the enhanced codec: internal packet loss concealment (PLC) function, a voice activity detection (VAD) function, a comfort noise generation (CNG) function, and a discontinuous transmission generation (DTX) function.

  • Patent number: 4782677
    Abstract: The lock repair plate has threaded holes at the same locations as the holes in a standard mounting plate, the threaded holes being in registration with the holes in the bolt casing, which are traversed by machine screws for mounting the casing on the repair plate. The repair plate is further provided with a plurality of screw holes offset from the threaded holes and which are traversed by plate screws for mounting the repair plate on a door, the plate also being formed with an opening through which the tongue of the lock cylinder can extend, the opening being flanked by first and second pairs of apertures formed in the plate and being selectively in registration with the standard threaded bores of the cylinder which flank the tongue, one of the pair of apertures being traversed selectively by a pair of cylinder screws for securing the cylinder to the plate.

  • Patent number: 4765165
    Abstract: A supporting surface is formed with a cylinder hole, a cover plate is provided with a bulge having a keyhole formed in registration with the cylinder hole, in which there is disposed the noncircular outlined shank of a lock cylinder, the lock cylinder having a head disposed in the bulge. A holding plate formed with a noncircular opening in registration with the cylinder hole and complementary to the noncircular shank outline is in engagement therewith for preventing rotation of the lock cylinder, while a plurality of bores are formed in respective mutual alignment in the cover plate, supporting surface, and holding plate whereby, respective fastening means traverse the aligned bores for mounting the lock plate assembly on the supporting surface with at least the cover plate on the outer side thereof.
