Patent number: 8109527Abstract: A medical cart comprising a base is supported on wheels. A first arm is supported on a track for linear movement in a first direction that supports a first platform. The arm also supports a second platform that is mounted for linear movement in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction. The first platform is mounted on a tilt assembly such that the angle of the first platform relative to the second platform can be adjusted.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2009Date of Patent: February 7, 2012Assignee: Rubbermaid, Inc.Inventors: Benjamin Shane Bustle, Jacob Connelly, Chad M.

Publication number: 20110235250Abstract: A work station comprises a work platform that may be mounted on a movable carriage. The work platform may support a keyboard tray on a drawer where the drawer may be moved between a retracted position and an extended position. The tray is mounted for pivoting motion in a first direction and a second direction between a lowered position and a raised position. A gear is operatively connected to the tray such that rotation of the tray causes rotation of the gear. A pawl is biased into engagement with the gear to prevent movement of the tray in the second direction to lock the tray in an angular position when the tray is moved in the first direction. A latch disengages the pawl from the gear when the tray reaches the fully raised position to allow the tray to move in the second direction to the lowered position.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 28, 2011Publication date: September 29, 2011Applicant: RUBBERMAID INCORPORATEDInventors: Roddy Burgess, Jacob Connelly, Robert Grant McRorie

Publication number: 20110235249Abstract: A workstation comprises a support and a work platform mounted on the support by an articulation mechanism. The articulation mechanism pivots the work platform between a storage position and a deployed position about a pivot axis and raises the pivot axis relative to the support as the work platform moves from the storage position to the deployed position. The workstation comprises a support supporting a flat monitor in a monitor housing having a depth. In the storage position the work platform is located below the monitor and in the deployed position the work platform may be used as a keyboard support and a desk.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 28, 2011Publication date: September 29, 2011Applicant: RUBBERMAID INCORPORATEDInventors: Benjamin Shane Bustle, Jacob Connelly, Robert Grant McRorie

Publication number: 20110042911Abstract: The cart (1) disclosed herein may comprise a vertically moveable work station (10) with a platform (12), a column (14) for supporting the work station, at least one cable (26), and a flexible cable carrier (28). The column may include a vertically fixed part and a vertically moveable part that can be moved vertically relative to the vertically fixed part to cause vertical movement of the work station. The column has a vertically oriented opening therein. The at least one cable may be disposed within the vertically oriented opening in the column. The flexible cable carrier may be disposed within the vertically oriented opening in the column. The at least one cable may be connected to the flexible cable carrier and the flexible cable carrier is configured to cause the at least one cable to follow a substantially consistent path during repeated vertical movements of the work station.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 17, 2008Publication date: February 24, 2011Inventors: William Jacob Kozlowski, JR., Benjamin Shane Bustle, Jeffrey Allen Chochinov, Robert Grant McRorie, III

Publication number: 20100148647Abstract: A work station comprises a mounting bracket adapted to be mounted to a surface. An upper arm and a lower arm are mounted to the mounting bracket for pivoting motion about a first vertical axis. A track is pivoted to the upper arm and the lower arm about a second vertical axis where the track supports a vertically displaceable carriage. The carriage may support a monitor and work platform where the work platform supports a key board tray. A lift system supports the carriage for vertical movement. Work station mounting systems are also provided for movably supporting a work platform.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 11, 2009Publication date: June 17, 2010Applicant: RUBBERMAID INCORPORATEDInventors: Roddy Burgess, Ian Cunningham, Robert Grant McRorie

Publication number: 20090212670Abstract: The drawer assembly comprises a cabinet defining an internal space. A shelf is supported in the cabinet. The shelf supports a latch that is movable between a first position and a second position. A drawer is supported on the shelf where the drawer has a latch receiving structure formed thereon. The latch receiving structure includes a first surface engageable with the latch when the latch is in the first position and a second surface also engageable with the latch when the latch is in the first position such that the drawer can be locked relative to the cabinet in one of two positions. In one embodiment the drawer is supported on a mobile medical cart. The cart may also include a computer such as a PC, wireless communications systems to communicate with a wider network system, a system controller and/or other systems.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 20, 2009Publication date: August 27, 2009Applicant: RUBBERMAID INCORPORATEDInventors: Benjamin Shane Bustle, Jacob Connelly, Chad M.

Publication number: 20080282907Abstract: A food chilling device has a generally cylindrical elongate body with an outer wall, a closed end, an open end, a reservoir within the outer wall between the open and closed ends, and a reference axis oriented lengthwise between the open and closed ends. A closure assembly is removably installed on the device to close off the open end of the body and to seal the reservoir. In one example, a first handle extends outward in a radial direction relative to the reference axis of the body and has a first grip spaced outward beyond the outer wall. A second handle extends in a lengthwise direction and has a second grip spaced from the open end of the body. In another example, the closure assembly has an annular collar surrounding the open end of the body and with an inward extending circumferential shoulder. A cap with a stopper section engages the collar to close off the open end of the body.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 17, 2008Publication date: November 20, 2008Applicant: Rubbermaid IncorporatedInventors: Jason Ernest Begin, Robert Grant McRorie, III

Patent number: 6772816Abstract: A portable display case includes four panels with adjacent panels being connected by pivots defining substantially parallel axes. The panels are pivotable between a closed position in which the panels are in face-to-face contiguous opposing relationship and an open position. Two center panels include handle members pivotally connected thereto at upper edges and wheelable members connected thereto at lower edges. The handle members and the wheelable members include recesses and projections for registering with projections and recesses, respectively, of adjacent outermost panel members. The recess and projections facilitate the stacking of identical portable displays atop each other. The handle members and the base members pivot through 180° for respectively latching and unlatching the panel members in their respective closed and open positions.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2002Date of Patent: August 10, 2004Inventors: Wallace T. Carter, Paul Bradley Forrest, Robert Grant McRorie, III
