Patent number: 8839725Abstract: The disclosure is directed to a table apparatus. The table apparatus includes a support assembly, a surface assembly and an adjustment assembly. The adjustment assembly allows for the movement of a work surface between a first bottom position and a second top position while remaining in the same, preferably, horizontal, orientation throughout the movement thereof. Additionally, the work surface is permitted to rotate about an axis that is perpendicular to the work surface. A secondary work surface is provided, which, when properly set to the same height, cooperates with the work surface to provide a matingly engaged configuration which allows for a substantially continuous joined work surface, while allowing for rotation of the work surface about an axis that is perpendicular to the work surface.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 2010Date of Patent: September 23, 2014Assignee: Fredricks Design, Inc.Inventors: Brett Kooistra, Maurice Fredricks, Bruce Fredricks, Benjamin Edinger, Mitchell Mulder

Publication number: 20050035618Abstract: A storage console, comprising mix and match storage modules adapted to be arranged in a variety of positions on a supporting framework. The modules include end or terminal bins, lateral bins, medial bins, wall panels, and cargo nets among others. The framework of the console includes a base tray supporting a plurality of upright members, each having grooves of predetermined cross-section enabling a user to fix the desired modules. Each module is adapted to provide flexibility and cooperate with different storage compartments. Wall panels may be attached to the framework to facilitate secure and private storage. In addition, provision can also be made for connecting different powered accessories such as lighting, audio, video, and the like. In addition the base of the center floor console along with said accessories may with the twist of a latch, be removed from the vehicle entirely.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 12, 2003Publication date: February 17, 2005Inventors: Eric Toth, Jon Moroney, Peter Laduke, Kevin Fellows, Michael Johnson, Joe Rankin, Brett Kooistra, Bruce Fredricks, Maurice Fredricks

Patent number: 6768793Abstract: A Service Control Point (SCP) directs a telecommunications network to connect a resource only when the resource is needed. When the resource is no longer needed, the SCP selects a new connection for the network. The SCP directs the network to disconnect the resource and use the new connection so the resource does not remain on the line during the entire call. The invention can be used to add and drop multiple resources from a call while the call is in progress. The SCP also provides context information for the call so multiple resources can access context information for the call.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2002Date of Patent: July 27, 2004Assignee: Sprint Communications Company L.P.Inventors: Daniel Charles Sbisa, Shigeru Uchiyama, Karen Harden Miller, Bruce Fredrick Salisbury, James David Setter, Steven Eugene Norby

Patent number: 6483834Abstract: A system for creating a switched virtual circuit that includes a switch that receives initial information and a connection management system that is electrically connected to the switch, wherein the switch sends a signal to the connection management system that contains information as to the proper connection for the initial information and wherein the connection management system creates a virtual circuit that will reconfigure and transmit the initial information in such a manner that no information is lost when the initial information is transmitted by the virtual circuit.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 1998Date of Patent: November 19, 2002Assignee: Sprint Communications Company L.P.Inventor: Bruce Fredrick Salisbury

Patent number: 6381326Abstract: When telephone calls are placed by dialing a special number such as an “800” number, the dialed number is converted to a specially configured translation number that includes a destination output set of digits which are preferably the last four digits of the dialed number. This translation number is transported over the network from an originating switch to a terminating switch which then outputs the output set to the destination. Advantageously, the terminating switch also replaces the prefix portion of the translation number with an output prefix consisting of at least the NXX portion of the dialed number and outputs this prefix along with the output set to the destination for use in call tracking.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2000Date of Patent: April 30, 2002Assignee: Sprint Communications Company L.P.Inventor: Bruce Fredrick Salisbury
