Abstract: The invention relates to a device comprising a body and a set of vibration absorbers mounted on the body, each absorber being movable relative to the body between a first position and a second position, each absorber being capable of oscillating relative to the body between its first and second positions, a first natural frequency being defined for each absorber, at least one absorber having a first natural frequency different from the first natural frequency of another absorber. Each absorber comprises at least one deformation part capable of deforming as the vibration absorber oscillates between its first position and its second position, the deformation part having at least two faces configured to rub against each other during the deformation of the deformation part.

Abstract: A dynamic balance type vertical vibration isolator includes slide blocks, balance springs, mass blocks, a fixed block, rotation shafts, stiffness-adjustable springs, etc. When an earthquake force is upward, the stiffness-adjustable springs are compressed, upward forces of the stiffness-adjustable springs are increased, meanwhile, the slide blocks and the mass blocks move away from the fixed block, the balance springs are stretched to generate pull forces, and the pull forces have vertically upward components, so as to reduce compression degrees of the stiffness-adjustable springs, and further to reduce the upward forces of the stiffness-adjustable springs.

Abstract: A supporting device is provided and includes: a base; an upright column disposed on the base; a lifting module disposed on the upright column; a constant force arm unit including: a first rotating member rotatably disposed on the upright column and defining a constant first effective force arm; and a first wire wound on the first rotating member; a variable force arm unit including: a second rotating member linked with the first rotating member and defining a variable second effective force arm; and a second wire wound on the second rotating member; and an elastic force module connected to the first wire; where the torques respectively generated in the first wire and the second wire are balanced with each other.

Abstract: An apparatus support, intended for fastening a mobile medical apparatus such as a defibrillator, an oxygen apparatus, a ventilator, a monitor, an infusion apparatus, an inhalation apparatus, an electrocardiograph, a transfusion pump, a life support system, an extracorporeal system, and a heart-lung machine, has a wall holder and a mounting plate. In the intended mounting state, the apparatus is oriented at least substantially or exactly horizontally and has upper and lower faces and side edges. The mounting plate has a fastening device for fastening a medical apparatus that is to be arranged on the upper face, and a damping device via which the mounting plate is fixed on the wall holder. The invention further relates to a medical assembly having such an apparatus support and having a medical apparatus as described above.

Abstract: A support system for a display device includes a first arm configured to extend from a support surface. A second arm is rotatably connected to the first arm. The second arm has a range of movement relative to the first arm. A tilt head is rotatably connected to the second arm and configured to connect to a display. A first biasing member is positioned in the second arm and configured to provide a first counterbalancing force to the second arm to offset a load of the display. A second biasing member is positioned in the second arm and configured to provide a second counterbalancing force to the second arm to offset the load of the display. A lockout mechanism is configured to disengage the second biasing member and eliminate the second counterbalancing force through at least a portion of the range of movement.

Abstract: A hanging bracket for screen enclosures includes a main body having a first end with a first protrusion, a second end, a curved section, and an elongated arm having a first end with a second protrusion. Each of the protrusions include a shape and a size that is positionable within the opening of a spline channel in a screen enclosure frame. In the assembled orientation the main body and the arm are secured together to form a V-shaped member having the first protrusion and the second protrusion extending outward and locked within the spline channels. A plurality of apertures is provided along the main body for receiving hooks to suspend secondary items from the bracket.

Abstract: A security apparatus secures a laptop, and particularly a convertible laptop, to a mounting surface. The security apparatus comprises a housing assembly, and a first arm assembly and a second arm assembly extending from and retractable into the housing assembly. A first end assembly and second end assembly are mounted to the first arm assembly, and a second end assembly. Each arm assembly secures a first side and a second side of a lower body portion of the laptop. A trapping member is positioned in the housing assembly to lock the arm assemblies. A locking rod has a first end extending outside the support housing and a second end extending into the housing assembly and into engagement with the trapping member, the locking rod configured to move the trapping member into engagement with the first and second arm assemblies.

Abstract: A suspension damper for washing machines includes a control rod that is configured to attach a fixed bracket of a washing machine cabinet and a first cap having an aperture through which the control rod slidingly extends. The first cap is configured to engage a concave portion of a bracket on a drum of the washing machine. A second cap is disposed on the control rod, and a spring is disposed between the first cap and the second cap. The first cap includes at least one water passageway for guiding water along an outer surface of the first cap. An umbrella may be disposed on the control rod to shed water outwardly away from the control rod.

Abstract: A lifting device with a cable management is provided. The lifting device includes: an outer pipe, an actuation mechanism, a linkage member, a cable, and a cable management component. The actuation mechanism is accommodated in the outer pipe and has a motor and a screw rod. The linkage member is accommodated in the outer pipe and mutually screw-fitted with the screw rod to operate, and moves relative to the outer pipe. The cable has a spiral coiled cable unit. A shaft core line in parallel with the screw rod is defined by the spiral coiled cable unit. The cable management component is disposed in the outer pipe and in parallel to the shaft core line. The spiral coiled cable unit is reeled on the cable management component. Accordingly, the cable may be stably positioned and the cable may be prevented from rubbing or being tangled with the screw rod.
