Patent number: 12650045Abstract: A fenestration unit includes a frame and a sash. The sash includes a glide support member and a projection. The frame includes a frame member that is elongate. The frame member at least partly defines a panel seat that opposes the panel peripheral area when the sash closed, a support track configured to engage and support the glide support member for gliding movement of the sash, and a guide channel that receives the projection to guide gliding movement of the sash. The frame member includes a diverter channel extending between the panel seat and the guide channel and is configured to receive the projection to guide movement of the sash. The frame member includes a recess providing clearance between the frame member and the glide support member as the sash moves.Type: GrantFiled: March 20, 2025Date of Patent: June 9, 2026Inventors: Dominique Fiset, Jeff Pigeon, Lisa Bergeron, Sylvain LaCasse, Frederic Renaud, Jeff Baker, Jean Marois

Publication number: 20250090396Abstract: A hospital bed includes a frame, a plurality of extendable patient support panels mounted to the frame, and a slide mechanism. Each patient support panel includes a central section and at least one coplanar side section selectively movable laterally towards and away from the central section, where the at least one coplanar side section is slidably connected to the corresponding central section. The slide mechanism allows sliding movement of the at least one side section relative to the corresponding central section.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 5, 2024Publication date: March 20, 2025Applicant: UMANO MEDICAL INC.Inventors: Sylvain LACASSE, Frederic RENAUD, Jean-Philippe BEAUDET, Jimmy LAFLAMME, Jerome MARCOTTE, Steve BOLDUC, Marco MORIN

Publication number: 20150029146Abstract: The general field of the invention is that of devices with touchscreen of the capacitive type comprising two matrix touch pads connected to an electronic assembly comprising emission and receiving means. The emission means generate a plurality of emission signals at various frequencies. A period equal to the inverse of the said frequency being associated with each frequency, the values of the frequencies are such that there exist a plurality of integer numbers each associated with a frequency and with a period such that the product of each integer number with the associated period is a constant product.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 24, 2014Publication date: January 29, 2015Inventors: Philippe CONI, Frederic Renaud, Yves Sontag

Patent number: 7893630Abstract: The field of the invention is mainly that of light boxes used for the illumination of display screens using optical valves, notably for liquid crystal matrix displays also known as LCD screens. The light sources used are generally fluorescent tubes powered with a high voltage by devices comprising Royer electronic oscillators. These electronic oscillators do not allow wide dynamic ranges of luminance, which can be necessary for certain applications, to be easily attained. The oscillator according to the invention comprises an electronic device for discharging the stored electrical energy, said discharge device being controlled by an electronic control device using chopping modulation, thus enabling wide dynamic ranges of luminance to be attained.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2006Date of Patent: February 22, 2011Assignee: ThalesInventors: Guy Schou, Frederic Renaud
