Patent number: 7996939Abstract: A collapsible hydraulically operated ambulance cot having a support frame, a wheeled base, a support mechanism disposed therebetween, and a lift system for hydraulically moving the upper frame relative to the lower frame is disclosed. The lift system permits a single attendant to raise the cot from a lowered position to a raised position, and an infinite number of positions therebetween, and to raise the wheeled base relative to the support frame to situate the cot onto an elevated surface such as the transport deck of an ambulance. A manual override is also provided to conserve battery power and as a back-up in no-power situations. It is to be appreciated that the above described manual override mode may be used when raising or lowering the cot without power assist, dropping the undercarriage when unloading from a vehicle, and lifting the undercarriage when loading into a vehicle.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 2005Date of Patent: August 16, 2011Assignee: Ferno-Washington, Inc.Inventors: William H. Benedict, Robert C. Chinn, Warren Dale Sutton, Timothy P. Schroeder, Brian Slick

Patent number: 7461381Abstract: A communications services network platform has a multi-layered software architecture residing on a host computer. The network platform connects to a communications network and includes a call processing stack, a link layer, and a service support subsystem. The call processing stack implements call processing by processing events associated with a communication path through the communications network and has an application layer, representing each active call being processed by the call processing stack, and a resource layer, including software abstractions of physical resources located outside the host computer. The link layer manages a communications link between physically connected physical resources and the call processing stack. The service support subsystem executes services requested by the call processing stack. The platform manages and controls communications events associated with the communication path to complete a request for services between nodes on the communication network.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2003Date of Patent: December 2, 2008Assignee: AT&T Labs, Inc.Inventors: Thomas L. Adams, Will R. Chorley, Philip C. Cunetto, James M. Doherty, John E. Lemay, Stephen M. Mueller, Satish Parolkar, Timothy P. Schroeder, Charles B. Slaten
