  • Publication number: 20080116727
    Abstract: A chair assembly adapted to be nested with a second chair assembly identical to the chair assembly. The chair assembly comprises a seating portion and a back support. The seating portion includes a top seat surface, a bottom seat surface generally parallel to the top seat surface, a first side seat edge, a second side seat edge, and a front edge. The back support is generally perpendicular to the seating portion and includes an inner back support surface, an outer back support surface generally parallel to the inner back support surface, a first side back support edge, a second side back support edge, and a top back support edge. A first return flange disposed on the first side back support edge of the back support and a second return flange disposed on the second side back support edge of the back support. A first recess can be disposed on the inner surface of the back support, and is adapted to receive a first return flange of a second chair assembly nested with the unitary shell.

  • Patent number: 4017784
    Abstract: The DC to DC converter contains a transformer, having a primary and a secondary winding and a predetermined leakage reactance existing between the primary and the secondary winding. A rectifier circuit is connected to the secondary and a large filter capacitance is connected to the rectifier to form an output across the filter capacitor adapted for connection to a load. A pair of electronic switches are connected across the input to the converter in series with the primary. A capacitor is included in series with the primary and voltage clamping diodes are coupled to the capacitor to prevent voltage across same from exceeding the input voltage level. Pulse generating means coupled to the load, monitor the load voltage level and provide suitable pulses alternately to said electronic switches so as to cause same to alternately conduct current through the capacitor and through the primary.
