Abstract: A diagnostic table for a medical imaging apparatus includes a sliding command input device by which a sliding command is configured to be input to produce a sliding movement of a tabletop, a first detector configured to detect sliding movement of the tabletop, a second detector configured to detect input of the sliding command, a stopper coupled to the tabletop and configured to prevent the tabletop from sliding, and a controller coupled to the first and second detectors and the stopper, the controller configured to determine a fault condition when the first detector detects sliding movement of the tabletop inconsistent with the command detected by the second detector and to activate the stopper to prevent the sliding movement of the tabletop upon determining existence of the fault condition.

Abstract: A tray adapted for suspension from a railing edge includes a base panel having a pair of integral side panel tabs positioned on opposing sides of the base panel. An attachment panel, integral with a top portion of the base panel, is positioned between the pair of side panel tabs and folds along an attachment panel crease between a flat configuration and an angled configuration with respect to the base panel. The side panel tabs engage receiving slots located on the attachment panel to lock each tab in a fixed configuration for holding the attachment panel in an angled configuration to the base panel. A pair of generally J-shaped attachment tabs, integral with the attachment panel are positioned on opposing sides of a top portion of the attachment panel and fold along a crease between a flat configuration and a downwardly extending configuration from the attachment panel to form a hook adapted to engage a railing edge for suspending the tray therefrom.

Abstract: A modular system of power and data components comprising a substation having power and data ports is provided. The system includes channels releasably connectable to the substation and supports. The substation, channels and supports are releasably and rotatably connected to permit the system to be formed in almost infinite combinations to accommodate numerous office or work space configurations. The system is used in conjunction with tables, screens and other furniture to form a fully and easily adjustable office or work space set-up to accommodate any office or work space situation and to allow quick change to accommodate changes in the initial office or work space set-up.

Abstract: A shipping pallet comprised of at least one layer of substantially parallel, structural deck boards attached to a plurality of stringers is disclosed. The layer of deck boards defines a three-dimensional, substantially rectilinear deck zone that is defined by a top plane, a bottom plane, and four side-edge planes. The pallet includes at least one non-structural member that carries a readable device within the deck zone of a pallet, in the space between two structural deck boards. The non-structural member has a Modulus of Elasticity and Modulus of Rupture that are both below that of the strongest deck board in the deck zone in which the non-structural member is mounted.

Abstract: A modular worktable assembly and a shelving unit are described. The modular worktable assembly has a pair of side panels with a tabletop secured over a top end thereof. A rear, hollow cross-channel is secured between rear vertical end posts of the side panels and has an open top end with a removable cover member for access to an interior thereof. The table platform is held horizontal and elevated above the top edge of the side panels and flush with a top end of the rear hollow cross-channel. The modular shelving unit is characterized in that it has vertical side panels which are formed by a pair of symmetrical side walls immovably secured back-to-back and these side walls each have a pair of outwardly projecting elongated formations formed in a front and rear portion thereof. A plurality of horizontally aligned connecting slots are provided in these formations.

Abstract: A concession tray for selectively supporting concessions in a substantially horizontal position relative to a stadium seat, thereby facilitating the comfort and enjoyment of a patron at a performance or event. A retaining flange is coupled to the concession tray and easily integrated with an existing stadium seat such that the concession tray may retain concessions in a fixed relationship with a stadium seat without requiring substantial modification of the stadium seat, if any.
