Abstract: A cart for medical equipment includes a column supporting a platform for mounting a piece of medical equipment to the cart. A base including one or more wheels that support the column, and a handgrip at least partially encircling the platform. The handgrip includes an upper surface substantially devoid of openings and an opposite lower surface including one or more elongated accessory slots opening downwardly toward the one or more wheels. The one or more elongated accessory slots are configured to receive a portion of an accessory mount such that the accessory mount is slidingly adjustable along a length of the one or more accessory slots.

Abstract: The present invention relates to systems and methods of express tracking for patient flow management in a distributed environment. Particularly, aspects are directed to a computer implemented method that includes initiating a check-in process that includes prompting a user to scan an identifier, processing the identifier using a cascade machine-learning architecture comprising of a multi-task convolutional neural network model and a recurrent neural network model to obtain the classification of the identifier and member identification information, determining whether the user is known user based on the member identification information, when the user is a known user, verifying user data saved in the computing system associated with the identifier, once the user data is verified, determining whether the user has a scheduled appointment; and when the user has a scheduled appointment, checking the user in for the scheduled appointment.

Abstract: A lamination for use in an electric machine stator includes a body having a generally circular outer periphery and a generally circular inner periphery, spaced from the outer periphery and a plurality of spaced apart teeth extending inwardly from the circular inner periphery. Each of said teeth define opposed inner edges thereof. The lamination includes a first pair of tips extending tangentially in opposed directions from the inner edge of one of said teeth and a second pair of tips extending tangentially in opposed directions from the inner edges of another one of said teeth. A tip of the first pair of tips and a tip of the second pair of tips define a first configuration having a first gap therebetween and defining a second configuration having a second gap therebetween. The first gap being substantially less than the second gap.

Abstract: A converter module for converting three-phase electrical power to single-phase electrical power. The converter module includes three-phase terminals and a full-wave bridge rectifier. The three-phase terminals are configured to be electrically coupled to a three-phase power source from which a three-phase power signal is provided. The full-wave bridge rectifier is electrically coupled to the three-phase terminals and configured to rectify the three-phase power signal to a direct current (DC) power signal.

Abstract: A motor includes a stator comprising windings configured to be energized, and a rotor electromagnetically coupled to the stator and configured to turn relative thereto when the stator is energized. The motor also includes a motor controller configured to measure a speed at which the rotor turns, and energize said stator to generate a first torque output at the rotor when the measured speed is below a first threshold. The motor controller is also configured to energize the stator to generate a second torque output at the rotor when the measured speed is at least the first threshold, wherein the second torque output is greater than the first torque output.

Abstract: An electric motor assembly includes an electric motor, a casing configured to house the motor, and an electrical enclosure coupled to the motor casing. The electrical enclosure houses a control board including a microcontroller and a memory device therein. The microcontroller is configured to control the electric motor based at least in part on motor configuration data stored in the memory device. The assembly also includes a near field communications (NFC) antenna positioned adjacent to an opening defined in the motor casing or the electronics enclosure, and is communicatively coupled to the memory device. The NFC antenna is configured to: receive a radio signal transmitted by an external programming device, the radio signal including updated motor configuration data; convert the radio signal to an electrical signal that includes the updated motor configuration data; and transmit the electrical signal to the memory device to store the updated motor configuration data.

Abstract: Controllers for controlling hybrid motor drive circuits configured to drive a motor are provided herein. A controller is configured to drive the motor using an inverter when a motor commanded frequency is not within a predetermined range of line input power frequencies, and couple line input power to an output of the inverter using a first switch device when the motor commanded frequency is within the predetermined range of line input power frequencies.
