  • Publication number: 20220142469
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to patient positioning apparatuses for ophthalmic testing. In one or more embodiments, an ophthalmic device includes a base having a first side surface and an ophthalmic component disposed over or coupled to a top surface of the base. The ophthalmic component has a second side surface being separated by a distance in a first direction from the first side surface such that the ophthalmic component overhangs the base. The ophthalmic device includes a headrest assembly coupled to the base. The headrest assembly includes a first headrest assembly section extending from the first side surface of the base at least in part in the first direction, a second headrest assembly section extending from the first headrest assembly section at least in part in a second direction parallel to the second side surface, and a third headrest assembly section extending from the second headrest assembly section.

  • Patent number: 8177637
    Abstract: Disclosed are gaming machines, including related methods, apparatus, and systems, including computer program products, implementing and using techniques for providing a game of chance. Peripheral devices, such as a bill acceptor and ticket printer, are consolidated in a central region of the gaming machine, behind a moveable door of the machine. Doors of the machine, including a door having a display, are moveable in directions along a longitudinal axis of the machine between open and closed positions. An adjustable button panel is moveable to a plurality of positions along the longitudinal axis, independent of the moveable doors. An array of networked displays on one or more gaming machines are controlled to simultaneously output lighting patterns, including synchronized patterns, associated with various events. Designated lighting patterns can also be output on light borders disposed around groups of buttons and other input devices on the button panel.

  • Patent number: 7833102
    Abstract: Disclosed are gaming machines, including related methods, apparatus, and systems, including computer program products, implementing and using techniques for providing a game of chance. Peripheral devices are consolidated in a first region of the gaming machine, behind a first door of the machine. The peripheral devices include a printer having a ticket stack and a bill acceptor having a cashbox. The printer is configured to print and dispense tickets from the ticket stack. The bill acceptor is configured to receive cash and store the cash in the cashbox. The ticket stack and the bill acceptor each have an access portion situated in the first region for access when the first door is open. A second door is mounted to the cabinet in a second region of the cabinet. The second door encloses a processor coupled to output game data to a display and control play of the game of chance.

  • Publication number: 20090196597
    Abstract: A magnetic mount is provided for easily mounting, positioning, and orienting a camera, sensor or other directionally sensitive electronic device. In one example the magnetic mount is a camera mount. The camera mount has a camera part that has an image sensor, electronics, battery, and communication components. The housing for the camera part has a generally concave mounting surface, with a magnet positioned inside the camera housing and adjacent to the camera mounting surface. A base part has a base mounting surface that is constructed to be attracted to the magnet. In one example, the base mounting surface is dome-shaped, with a convex curvature constructed to mate with the concave curvature of the camera mounting surface. The base part is mounted to a stable support, and the camera mounting surface brought near the base counting surface. The magnetic attractive forces pull the camera part firmly to the base part, thereby securely positioning and orienting the camera.
