Patent number: 11938069Abstract: A backrest pivoting system can have a backrest and an actuator for pivoting the backrest. The actuator is pivotably connected to the backrest by a pivot defining a first pivot axis. The backrest can pivot about a guide member which defines a second pivot axis coaxial with the first pivot axis. A backrest pivoting system can include an actuator and a resilient member mounted in series with the actuator. There is also provided an extendable user support assembly comprising a lower body support panel and a core support panel supported by a frame, the lower body support panel being translatable relative to the frame such that an opening is created between the lower body support panel and the core support panel when the lower body support panel is translated away from the core support panel. There is also provided a method for placing a bed in a vascular position.Type: GrantFiled: January 24, 2022Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: UMANO MEDICAL INC.Inventors: Sylvain Lacasse, Steve Bolduc, Jimmy Laflamme, Guy Lemire, Jean-Philippe Beaudet, Gabriel Mercier, Esther Berthelot

Publication number: 20230049768Abstract: Methods of data encryption using a mutating encryption key are disclosed. The methods generate an encryption key and utilize a codex to mutate or vary the encryption key value. The encryption key may be generated using a random number generator. The encryption key value in pre-mutation state, together with the codex, is used to generate the next valid value for the encryption key. Unencrypted message data may be used together with the codex to mutate the encryption key. A valid encryption key and the unencrypted or successfully deciphered message are thus required to mutate the encryption key to the next key post-mutation state at each end.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 11, 2021Publication date: February 16, 2023Applicant: ZEU TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: Jean-Philippe BEAUDET, Francois DUMAS

Publication number: 20220337436Abstract: A system and method for distributed settlement of a transaction among a plurality of participants without smart contracts is disclosed. The method utilizes a system that includes: a plurality of blockchains each having a plurality of nodes; and a coordinator for transferring messages between the nodes and maintaining status values so that all operations of the transaction are either committed or rolled back. The method includes: receiving a request for the transaction generated from one of the participants; posting the transaction request on a billboard; reading the transaction request by the nodes from the billboard; synchronizing among the participants; receiving transaction votes from the participants to either commit or roll back the request; and executing the transaction based on the transaction votes by either committing transaction or rolling back the request.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 17, 2020Publication date: October 20, 2022Applicant: ZEU TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: Jean-Philippe BEAUDET, Patricia POPERT-FORTIER, Yuming QIAN
