Abstract: A charging assembly for a patient support device includes an upper body having a mounting portion operable to be coupled to a fastener assembly of the patient support device, an actuator portion coupled to the upper body and operable to translate in a direction toward the upper body, and a pair of charging pins coupled to the actuator portion such that the pair of charging pins translate in a direction toward the mounting portion of the upper body when the actuator portion translates toward the upper body.

Abstract: A fastener post assembly for securing an emergency cot to a fastener of an emergency vehicle includes a rear plate, a front plate, a post body comprising a post and a pair of arms, a first locking tab and a second locking tab, each of the first locking tab comprising a hook at a first end, and an actuator body. The rear plate is secured to the front plate such that the pair of arms, the first locking tab, the second locking tab, and the actuator body are disposed between the rear plate and the front plate. The first locking tab and the second locking tab are pivotally coupled to the rear plate such that they are inwardly biased toward each other. Movement of the actuator body in a direction toward the post body outwardly pivots the first locking tab and the second locking tab away from each other.

Abstract: A handle assembly for a cot includes a handle body configured to be attached to a cot, a handle actuator slidably coupled to the handle body, a first link arm and a second link arm pivotally attached to a surface of the handle body at a pivot point, wherein the second link arm is slidably coupled to the handle actuator, an actuator assembly, wherein a first end of the actuator assembly is coupled to the first link arm, and a locking linkage assembly including a locking pin, wherein a second end of the actuator assembly is coupled to the locking linkage assembly. When the handle actuator is pulled, the first link arm and the second link arm rotate about the pivot point to pull the actuator assembly and transition the locking pin from an extended state to a retracted state to enable a changing of a length of the cot.

Abstract: A directional wheel lock assembly includes, a pedal, a linking rod coupled to the pedal such that the pedal is configured to be offset from a wheel, an actuation plunger comprising an upper opening, an actuation pin disposed through the upper opening of the actuator plunger, wherein the linking rod is coupled to an end of the actuation pin. The directional wheel lock assembly further includes an actuation plate having a recess and an opening within the recess, wherein the actuation plunger is positioned within the opening, and a wheel lock plate comprising a lock opening. The wheel lock plate is operable to be coupled to a wheel.

Abstract: A particle size separator includes an upper separator frame, a lower separator frame, a screen disposed between the upper separator frame and the lower separator frame, a large size particle outlet having an inlet disposed below the screen, a small size particle outlet disposed in the lower separator frame and a combined baffle and seal unit disposed in an opening in the screen. The unit has a seal face configured to sealingly engage the inlet of the large size particle outlet. The unit has a baffle configured to constrain movement of particles on an upper surface of the screen into the inlet. The baffle is configured to sealingly engage an interior wall of the upper separator frame.

Abstract: A cooler for particulate product includes a substantially enclosed housing. A first cooling screen is disposed in the housing and is configured to receive the product. The first cooling screen is configured to move the product along a surface by gravity when the first cooling screen vibrated. A duct is coupled to the first cooling screen to move cooling fluid through the first cooling screen. A second cooling screen is disposed in the housing below the first screen and is configured to receive the product after discharge from the first screen. The second screen is configured to move the particulate product along a surface when vibrated. A second duct is coupled to the second screen to move cooling fluid through the screen. A collector receives the particulate product after moving along a surface of the second screen. A vibrator is coupled to the housing and vibrates the housing.
