Abstract: A telescoping slide system comprising a left-side telescoping slide assembly and a right-side telescoping slide assembly that each include interconnected slide members moveable to extend and retract among a retracted-storage stage and an extended-service stage. Each telescoping slide assembly includes a stationary slide member, a intermediate slide member that moves relative to the stationary slide member in a channel formed in the stationary slide member, and a load-carrying slide member that moves relative to the stationary slide member and the intermediate slide member in a channel formed in the intermediate slide member.

Abstract: Systems for controlled resonance in electrical power devices are described. A programmed signal processor generates output control signals from input electrical signals based on resonant control parameters for a target power device. Analog electrical control systems for controlled resonance, power devices incorporating controlled resonance, and opto-programmed controllers for use in controlled resonance applications are described, with example embodiments for electro-mechanical systems with resonant constructive power drive action for electric motors.

Abstract: A mounting post for supporting a plurality of electronic cabinets, each having different bolt patterns, comprising a hollow post configured to receive a hollow mount at the upper end, a stabilizer plate attached to the lower end of the post, and a hollow mount selected from a plurality of hollow mounts, each having a lower end configured to mate to the post, and having a substantially planar upper surface with openings formed therein corresponding to a unique bolt pattern for an electronics cabinet.

Abstract: In the field of canine humeral osteotomy, an osteotomy plate including a proximal plate portion lying substantially in a first plane for application to the humerus. The proximal plate portion has a bottom surface adapted for application to the surface of the humerus, and the proximal plate portion has at least one overlapping hole formed therein. The osteotomy plate also includes a distal plate portion lying substantially in a second plane for application to the humerus. The distal plate portion has a bottom surface adapted for application to the surface of the humerus, and the distal plate portion has at least one overlapping hole formed therein. The osteotomy plate also includes a transition region connecting the proximal plate portion to the distal plate portion.

Abstract: Systems and methods for electronic message may include receiving information from a sending device. The information may include a prioritization determination, initial receiving device destinations, alternate receiving device destinations, and a determination of a plurality of responses to message delivery failures from the sending device. Data may be attached to the message before encrypting and sending. Status information about the message may be received, provided to the sending device, and updated. If message delivery failure occurs, the message may be sent to one or more alternate receiving device destinations. Status information about the message may again be received, provided to the sending device, and updated. Message and status information may be stored in a database.

Abstract: A bone plate(s) of complex form is provided, particularly suited to tibial plateau-leveling osteotomy and a distal femoral osteotomy. The bone plate has a main longitudinal axis, a bone-contacting bottom side (not shown) and a top side with at least three sets of overlapping holes which communicate through the plate from the top to the bottom side. The sets of overlapping holes define threaded apertures having multifaceted surfaces. When applied to a bone, two sets of such overlapping holes are located so as to lie on opposite sides of an osteotomy site and on the tibial plate; a third is aligned at approximately 60 degrees with the longitudinal axis. The configuration of this complex bone plate vary, depending on the physiology of the patient. An object of the invention is to provide an orthopedic surgeon greater flexibility of choice in that a threaded peg providing secure fixing can be positioned at any interval along the bone plate, including at its extreme ends or on its elbow.

Abstract: A telescoping slide assembly support system includes a stationary slide and a slide support coupled to the stationary slide and to a rack included in an equipment cabinet.

Abstract: A quick-mount support includes a fixed retainer adapted to extend into a first retainer aperture and a movable retainer having an arcuate slot and adapted to extend into a second retainer aperture. The quick-mount support further includes a pivotable actuator, apparatus for mounting the pivotable actuator for pivoting movement about an actuator pivot axis, and a driver coupled to the pivotable actuator and arranged to move in the arcuate slot in the movable retainer. Movable retainer pivots about the retainer pivot axis toward and away from the fixed retainer in response to pivoting movement of the pivotable actuator about the actuator pivot axis. In one illustrative embodiment, the mounting apparatus comprises an elastic, deformable O-ring for pivotally mounting the pivotable actuator about an anchor mount so that the actuator pivot axis can shift as the driver moves in the arcuate slot.
