  • Patent number: 5551436
    Abstract: A medical diagnosis system includes an input such as a floppy disk drive or a keyboard for inputting data of test items obtained by doctor's consultation, physical examination, and/or test. A microprocessor unit (1) compares the input data with evaluation ranges to determine into which evaluation range the input data falls, (2) compares the evaluation range with condition groups each including one or more condition formulae, thereby generating an evaluation result of sickness or disorder, and (3) provides data of sickness or disorder including type, level, causes, and comments if the condition groups are satisfied, thereby preparing a list of evaluation results. In the event different evaluation results are obtained with respect to a sickness or disorder, the most serious evaluation result for such sickness or disorder is added to the list of evaluation results. An output such as a printer, floppy disk drive, or display monitor displays the evaluation results list in a sentence format.

  • Patent number: 5249842
    Abstract: A collector cart includes a body having an open rear end closed by a canopy pivotally connected to the body adjacent their front ends. A tow bar, which has the body pivotally connected thereto, has a support, which has caster wheels connected thereto for support, for the body. The tow bar has a quick hook-up requiring no tools at its forward end for connection to a hitch on a riding lawn mower. When the cart is to be dumped, a first handle is rotated by an operator, who remains on the mower, to initially cause pivoting of a rear portion of a frame of the canopy, which includes a cover on the frame, relative to the body and the remainder of the canopy frame to unlock the rear portion of the canopy from the rear of the body. After unlocking is accomplished, a second handle, which is pivotally mounted on the body and has a portion engaging the tow bar to prevent pivoting of the body, is rotated by the operator to disengage its engaging portion from the tow bar.
