Publication number: 20240122502Abstract: One or more radar sensors can be used to monitor patients in a variety of different environments and embodiments. In one embodiment, radar sensors can be used to monitor a patient's breathing, including monitoring of tidal volume, chest expansion distance, breathing rate, etc. In another embodiment, a patient position can be monitored in a patient bed, which can be used as feedback for control of bladders of a patient bed. Additional embodiments are described herein.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 14, 2023Publication date: April 18, 2024Inventors: Stacey A. Fitzgibbons, David L. Ribble, Eric R. Meyer, Michael S. Hood, Gregory J. Shannon, Yue Wang, Charles A. Lachenbruch (Deceased), Steven D. Baker

Patent number: 11505977Abstract: A screen door for a cooling package of a vehicle that includes proximal and distal frame posts, screen surface, torsion bar, stationary support, torsion bracket and fastener. The proximal frame post is hingedly coupled to the cooling package, and the distal frame post can be hingedly coupled to a secondary door. Proximal end of torsion bar is fixedly attached to proximal frame post, and distal end is moveable relative to the distal frame post. Stationary support is fixedly attached to distal frame post. Torsion bracket is fixedly attached to distal end of torsion bar, and is moveable relative to stationary support. Fastener maintains torsion bracket in a desired position relative to stationary support. Movement of torsion bracket relative to stationary support applies an adjustable torsion on torsion bar, and fastener maintains the adjustable torsion. An adjustment member can be attached to fastener between torsion bracket and stationary support.Type: GrantFiled: May 7, 2021Date of Patent: November 22, 2022Assignee: DEERE & COMPANYInventors: Shaun J. Miller, Eric L. Baker

Patent number: 11350570Abstract: A sugarcane harvester comprises a frame, a knockdown roller, and a telescopic roller support mounted to the frame and to which the knockdown roller is mounted. The roller support is configured to telescope to cause linear movement of the knockdown roller relative to the frame.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2019Date of Patent: June 7, 2022Assignee: DEERE & COMPANYInventors: Kent M. Almeida, Michael L. Halbrook, Eric P. Richard, Eric L. Baker

Patent number: 8141802Abstract: A control mechanism for the feed of a brush chipper is disclosed. A lower feed stop bar, located under a feed table, pivots on a pivot axis located below and toward the brush chipper from the control bar of the lower feed stop bar. The center of gravity of the lower feed stop bar, then, tends to pivot the lower feed stop bar away from the feed disengage position. Hence, nuisance trips due to vibration, impact of brush on the table, etc., are reduced.Type: GrantFiled: June 18, 2010Date of Patent: March 27, 2012Assignee: Vermeer Manufacturing CompanyInventors: Edwin N Galloway, Jeffrey D Bradley, James L O'Halloran, Eric L Baker
