Abstract: A fall monitor has a first wireless communications receiver and a second wireless communications receiver. The second receiver receives wireless communications according to a different communications protocol than the first receiver. A fall detection pad includes a wireless communications module having a first pad transmitter configured to communicate with the first receiver to transmit a pairing communication when the fall detection pad is placed in proximity to the first receiver and a second pad transmitter configured to communicate with the second receiver when the fall detection pad is paired with the fall monitor display unit to transmit the fall alarm communication when the fall detection pad determines that a patient has removed pressure from the fall detection pad. A clinician key may be provided that is configured to communicate with the first receiver to provide a hold status for the alarm signal of the display unit.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system, method, and computer program for securely transmitting and presenting payment card data in a web client. Payment card information is securely transmitted form a payment card server to a sandboxed container object on a webpage. The payment card sever is PCI compliant and independent of the webserver that provided the webpage to the web client. A sandboxed payment-card client, executing within the sandboxed container object on the web page, establishes a secure communication session with the payment-card sever. The payment-card server transmits payment card data to the sandboxed payment-card client, which displays the payment card data in the sandboxed container object (or in a plurality of sandboxed container objects). The website's webserver is bypassed in communications between the payment-card server and the sandboxed payment-card client.

Abstract: The disclosure is directed to a system, method, and computer program for dynamically identify a merchant associated with an authorization request for a payment card, wherein a merchant identifier in the authorization request is unrecognized. A plurality of unique signatures is created for each of a plurality of registered merchants, wherein the signatures for each registered merchant are based on values of merchant attributes associated with the registered merchant. In response to the system receiving an authorization request for a payment card that includes an unrecognized merchant identifier used to process authorization requests, a plurality of unique signatures is generated for the unrecognized merchant based on a combination of merchant attributes in the authorization request. A payment processing system then determines if the signatures match one of the signatures previously created for the registered merchants.

Abstract: A planet carrier for a planetary gear set includes a pair of carrier plates. A planet gear is positioned between the carrier plates of the pair of carrier plates. A pin extends between the carrier plates of the pair of carrier plates through the planet gear such that the planet gear is rotatable relative to the carrier plates of the pair of carrier plates on the pin. A retainer is removably mounted to one of the pair of carrier plates. The pin is positioned against the retainer at the one of the pair of carrier plates. The pin may be rotatable relative to the carrier plates of the pair of carrier plates.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for an automated biological reaction system is provided. In the processing of a biological reaction system, there is a need for consistently placing an amount of liquid on a slide. In order to accomplish this, several methods are used including a consistency pulse and a volume adjust means. Moreover, in order to reliably operate an automated biological reaction system, the dispenser must be reliable, easy to assemble and accurate. Among other things, in order to accomplish this, the dispense chamber is substantially in line with the reservoir chamber, the reservoir chamber piston is removed, and the flow of liquid through the dispenser is simplified. Further, in order to operate the automated biological reaction system more reliably, the system is designed in modular pieces with higher functions performed by a host device and the execution of the staining operations performed by remote devices.

Abstract: A roller for moving, rolling and unrolling rolls of sod. The roller is generally comprised of a top portion including a side shift actuator and at least one attachment member for attachment to a vehicle, preferably a skid steer. The roller also includes a rotary actuator with a shaft, slidably attached to the top portion. A main frame consisting of a top member, side member, base member and an end gate, extends down from the shaft of the rotary actuator. The end gate of the main frame is configured to pivot open and closed. The main frame is configured to rotate with the shaft.

Abstract: A fluid dispenser useful in automated biological reaction systems comprising a barrel having a reservoir chamber, the barrel having an upper portion and a lower portion, a cap located on top of the upper portion of the barrel and connected to the reservoir chamber, the cap having an external surface with at least one hole therethrough, a valve comprising a biasing member and a hole sealer, the valve being located in the hole in the cap at the point where a downward force is applied against the cap, a coupler having a dispense chamber, the coupler being coaxial with the barrel and wherein the barrel lower portion moves into the dispense chamber during dispensing of fluid, and a vent located between the cap and the reservoir chamber, the vent including a vent opening and a vent material composed of oliophobic material.

Abstract: A reagent management system for an automated biological reaction apparatus including an automated biological reaction apparatus including at least one reagent dispenser for applying a reagent to a sample, a memory device containing data for a reagent device selected from the group consisting of a reagent dispenser or a reagent kit used in the automated biological reaction apparatus, a host device comprising a processor and a host device memory connected to the processor, the host memory device including a reagent table, and a scanner for transferring the memory device data to the host device memory.

Abstract: A fluid dispenser comprising a barrel having a reservoir chamber, the barrel having an upper portion, a cap connected to the reservoir chamber, the cap having a surface with at least one hole therethrough, a valve comprising a biasing member and a hole sealer, the valve being adjacent to the reservoir chamber, a coupler having a dispense chamber, and a vent located between the cap and the reservoir chamber, the vent including a vent opening and a vent material composed of oliophobic material.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for selecting and dispensing coverglasses over specimens on slides for the purpose of viewing specimens through a microscope. The selecting device contains a suctioning mechanism for picking up a coverglass from a stack of coverglasses. It also contains the ability to bend the coverglass to assist in separating the coverglasses. The apparatus further contains a matched barrier to eliminate any coverglasses that may stick to the selected coverglass. The selecting device also contains spring members which aid in the dispensing of the coverglass. After the suctioning mechanism releases the coverglass, the spring members exert a force onto the coverglass to insure that it is released from the selecting device and placed onto the slide. After placement of the coverglass onto the slide, capillary action pushes air bubbles out from underneath the coverglass.
