Publication number: 20220129876Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for a cloud-based point-of-sale system and a multi-function point-of-sale (POS) device. In an embodiment, the POS device includes an interactive display that switches between a first position oriented towards and for use by an operating clerk, and a second position oriented towards and for use by a customer. The POS device is able to detect the switch between the first position and the second position. A processor in the POS device outputs a first graphical user interface (GUI) on the interactive display in response to detection of the first position and a second GUI in response to detection of the second position. In an embodiment, the components of the POS device are combined together in a unified assembly.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 5, 2021Publication date: April 28, 2022Inventors: Ranil Ignatius FERNANDO, Kenneth NORTH, Jeffrey HALLER, Brian D. PERRY, Chatura Chamika DISSANAYAKE, Ragini Rajendra PRASAD, Kim DAVIS

Patent number: 9160210Abstract: Rotary encoders for use with trolling motors are disclosed. An example rotary encoder includes a housing defining an aperture and a linear guide and an input sleeve to extend through the aperture. The input sleeve includes an exterior guide to be engaged and followed by a shuttle to enable rotary position information to be obtained from the input sleeve. The shuttle is movably coupled within the linear guide. The shuttle is biased to engage a central portion of the exterior guide if rotation of the input sleeve moves the shuttle past first or second ends of the groove to prevent the rotary encoder from being damaged by over-rotation of the input sleeve.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 2012Date of Patent: October 13, 2015Assignee: BRUNSWICK CORPORATIONInventor: Brian D.

Patent number: 6121737Abstract: The present invention provides a processing system for coupling to an infrastructure of a building. The processing system comprises a processor having a plurality of processing system elements. A tray is coupled to the processor and the tray has at least one pivotal attachment member coupled to an articulating arm. A motor is coupled to a portion of the infrastructure and the articulating arm so that the motor may move the processing system between a first position and a second position.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 1999Date of Patent: September 19, 2000Assignee: Compaq Computer CorporationInventors: John L. Guenther, Donald D. Campbell, Brian D. Perry

Patent number: 5964065Abstract: Advanced vehicle-transportable field emergency medical systems comprising surgical suites deployable from core modules, each expanding to form an enclosed surgical or treatment room with perimeter tenting spaces, supplies and equipment. Two system versions are disclosed, each containing operating rooms, post operative beds, and a twenty plus bed triage capacity with unidirectional patient flow. The first surgical procedure can begin within one hour of delivery with a twenty patient cycle for twenty four hours. The surgical/treatment modules may also be deployed independently. Both system versions are transportable in a single C130 transport aircraft. Version AZ1 has smaller modules deployable by utility helicopter that include two operating suites, two post operative units, and also supply/communications and power units. Version AZ2 includes two modules each forming a combined surgical/post-operative unit, and also supply/communications and power units.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 1997Date of Patent: October 12, 1999Assignee: San Jose State University FoundationInventors: Tomasz K.

Patent number: 4502409Abstract: The disclosure embraces a method of and apparatus for applying a liquid material aftertreatment to texturized or bulked strand or yarn and particularly strand or yarn of glass fibers or filaments. The method and means of application of the liquid material aftertreatment to the texturized or bulked strand or yarn involves advancing the texturized strand or yarn over an applicator, applicator body or member wherein the applicator body is provided with an opening or orifice through which the liquid material is delivered onto the texturized or bulked strand or yarn and the liquid treated texturized or bulked strand or yarn wound into a package on a rotating body. One of said bodies is reciprocated with respect to the other for traversing the liquid treated texturized strand or yarn lengthwise of the package during winding of the package.Type: GrantFiled: October 1, 1981Date of Patent: March 5, 1985Assignee: Owens-Corning Fiberglas CorporationInventors: Brian D. Perry, Paul K. Mathews
