Abstract: Display assemblies and related systems and methods for mounting are provided. A side assembly with electronic display and a mounting device positioned, at least in part, rearward of the electronic display having laterally extending portion and hooked portions facing, at least primarily, in a first direction is raised relative to another mounting device with hooked portions facing, at least primarily, in a second, opposing direction. The side assembly is raised so that the hooked portions of said additional mounting device clear the hooked portions of the mounting device as the side assembly is moved laterally rearward to at least partially overlap the hooked portions of the mounting device and the additional mounting device. The side assembly is lowered to engage hooked portions of the additional mounting device and the mounting device.

Abstract: Display assemblies and related systems and methods for mounting are provided. A mounting structure includes a central airflow pathway for a first dedicated flow of ambient air with electronic equipment located along the same. One or more side assemblies are attached to the mounting structure and include a cover, a display layer located rearward of the cover, an illumination device for illuminating at least the display layer when operated, and a side assembly open loop airflow pathway for a second dedicated flow of the ambient air. When operated, the electronic equipment provides functionality other than operation of the one or more side assemblies. The central airflow pathway and the side assembly open loop airflow pathway of each of the one or more side assemblies are fluidly separated from one another.

Abstract: In various embodiments, a drug pump includes a housing and, within the housing, an expandable drug reservoir at least part of which is exposed to a pressurized propellant. The propellant exerts a substantially constant pressure on the drug reservoir. A flow restrictor significantly limits outflow from the pump, and preferably has both a small diameter and a long path length, which acts to control the outflow from the drug reservoir. As a result, the pump produces a substantially constant outflow.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system and method for locating terminals within a facility. One or more of a plurality of primary terminals send a location signal which may comprise location data for the respective primary terminal. A secondary terminal, of a plurality of secondary terminals may receive one or more of these location signals. In response, the secondary terminal sends a confirmation message to each primary terminal from which it has received a location signal. The confirmation message may comprise a unique identifier for the secondary terminal. In response to receiving one or more confirmation messages, a primary terminal sends a location reporting message to a location processing server. The location reporting message comprises the location data for that primary terminal and the contents of the received confirmation message(s). The data held on the location processing server can be used to determine the location and movement of each of the primary terminals and the secondary terminals.
