Publication number: 20240065641Abstract: A monitor mount is configured to detachably secure a first monitor and/or a second monitor individually or concurrently. The first monitor is further configured to be detachably secured to the second monitor independently from either monitor being secured to the monitor mount. The second monitor includes a mounting area in which the first monitor is mounted, and the first monitor and the second monitor are configured such that the first monitor is interchangeably insertable into the mounting area from a first lateral direction and a second lateral direction that is opposite to the first lateral direction. Accordingly, the second monitor includes a dual-entry feature that enables the first monitor to be inserted from either lateral side of the second monitor.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 27, 2021Publication date: February 29, 2024Applicant: Drägerwerk AG & Co. KGaAInventors: Clifford M. Risher-Kelly, John C. Magill, Zachary Kurt Hennings, Thomas Swyst, Christopher Aiston, Andrew T. Provencher, Peter A. Lund, Joseph Fallon, Ricardo Luis FERNANDEZ

Publication number: 20240057947Abstract: A patient monitor system includes a monitor mount, a first monitor, and a second monitor adapted to provide for data and power transfer between the monitors and the mount. The monitor mount may detachably secure the second monitor, and the second monitor can detachably secure (or otherwise physically interface with) the first monitor. The first monitor may be first mounted or otherwise detachably secured to the second monitor to form an expanded monitor system, and the monitor system may be then detectably secured to the monitor mount. Alternatively, the second monitor may be first mounted or otherwise detachably secured to the monitor mount, and the first monitor may be subsequently inserted into or otherwise mounted within a mounting area defined by the second monitor, the monitor mount, or both the second monitor and the monitor mount.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 29, 2021Publication date: February 22, 2024Inventors: John C. Magill, Clifford Risher-Kelly, Joseph Fallon, Peter A. Lund

Patent number: 11793466Abstract: The present invention relates to a sensor device (100, 101, 102, 103) for sensing physiological information of a subject. To efficiently avoid or reduce ambient interference, the sensor device comprises a communication unit (7) for receiving, from an external source, context information indicating one or more of a modulation mode, settings of an interference reduction algorithm, and spectral information indicating an ambient light spectrum, said spectral information allowing the sensor device to determine the modulation mode and/or settings of an interference reduction algorithm, one or more light emitters (1, 2) for emitting modulated light onto the tissue of the subject, and a light detector (4) for detecting light which is transmitted through the tissue or/and which is reflected from the tissue.Type: GrantFiled: August 7, 2017Date of Patent: October 24, 2023Assignee: KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS N.V.Inventors: Ralph Wijshoff, Theodorus Jansen, Anthonius Janssen, Joseph Fallon

Patent number: 9827754Abstract: In an illustrative implementation of this invention, a 3D object comprises substrate layers infiltrated by a hardened material. The 3D object is fabricated by a method comprising the following steps: Position powder on all or part of a substrate layer. Repeat this step for the remaining substrate layers. Transform the powder into a substance that flows and subsequently hardens into the hardened material. The hardened material solidifies in a spatial pattern that infiltrates positive regions in the substrate layers and does not infiltrate negative regions in the substrate layers.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2012Date of Patent: November 28, 2017Assignee: Impossible Objects, LLCInventors: Robert Swartz, Buckley Crist, Joseph Fallon

Publication number: 20140180125Abstract: The invention generally relates to a rotational imaging apparatus and methods of use thereof. In certain aspects, the apparatus includes a hollow elongate body. The hollow body includes a proximal and a distal end, and the proximal end includes a connector. A rotatable drive member is disposed within the body, and a rotatable electrical signal transmission member is disposed within the drive cable. The drive member and the electrical signal transmission member are coupled to an imaging device within the body and a portion of the electrical signal transmission member is attached to the drive member distal to the connector.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 20, 2013Publication date: June 26, 2014Applicant: VOLCANO CORPORATIONInventors: Joseph Fallon, Lisa Fong

Patent number: 8756894Abstract: In an exemplary embodiment of this invention, corrugated board is folded into a building system. The building system comprises a plurality of blocks and connectors. The blocks are rectangular cuboid in shape. The bottom and top sides of the blocks have rectangular arrays of holes. The blocks may be releasably connected by aligning the top holes of one block with the bottom holes of another block, and then inserting connectors into the aligned pairs of holes, one connector per aligned paid of holes. The ends of the connectors that are inserted are circular or equiangular polygonal in shape. In some embodiments, compression is used to releasably hold the connectors in place.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2011Date of Patent: June 24, 2014Assignee: Impossible Objects LLCInventors: Robert Swartz, Joseph Fallon, Robert McClure

Patent number: 4083398Abstract: A system for recovering the waste heat normally exhausted into the atmosphere by chemical or other processing plants. The invented system comprises a substantially self-contained apparatus for receiving hot exhaust gases and extracting the waste heat therefrom for some beneficial use, such as pre-heating inlet air in an inlet plenum. The system may include temperature and pressure controls which enhance the safety and efficiency of the system's operation, and further may include flow controls in a multiple burner installation so that the desired fuel air ratios and heat distribution may be achieved. By building the present invention as a substantially self-contained and self-supporting assembly, on site installation time and the required alternation of pre-existing on site equipment may be minimized, thereby affecting substantial economic savings by minimizing the resulting down time of the processing plant.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 1975Date of Patent: April 11, 1978Assignees: John F.
