Abstract: A medical bed frame may include a base frame, a pair of side members selectively movable laterally towards or away from the base frame, a first and second drive assembly each comprising: a first and second pair of cams configured to move the pair of side members, and a central linkage for rotating the first and second pair of cams, a first actuator operatively connected to the central linkage of the first drive assembly and the base frame, and a second actuator operatively connected to the central linkage of the second drive assembly and the base frame, wherein the first and second actuator are configured to selectively move the central linkage in one of a first direction and a second direction, whereby selective movement of the first actuator and the second actuator results in lateral movement of the pair of side members towards or away from the base frame.

Abstract: An industrial automation controller includes a housing with a forced convection chamber. First and second fans are releasably connected to the housing and are adapted to induce airflow through the forced convection chamber. The first and second fans are each connected to the housing by respective first and second latch systems that each include a primary latch and a secondary latch. The secondary latch imposes a time delay during removal and replacement of a fan to facilitate hot swapping of the fan with a replacement fan. A make-last/break-first contact system is provided for each fan such that the fan is shutdown in a controlled manner prior to removal of the fan from the housing. The controller monitors internal temperature and fan speed. The controller initiates, logs, and reports fault conditions based upon the monitored temperature and/or fan speed. The controller is shut down if the monitored temperature exceeds a select temperature level.

Abstract: A system and a computer-implemented method for providing responder information are disclosed herein. The method includes receiving, via a computing device, a sensor data generated by one or more safety devices corresponding to one or more responders. The computer-implemented method further includes analyzing, via the computing device, the sensor data to generate an analyzed sensor data. The computer-implemented method further includes establishing, via an application programming interface (API), a direct communication link between the computing device and at least one server or establishing, via a local application, a direct communication link between the computing device and at least one third party server. The computer-implemented method further includes transmitting, via the computing device, the analyzed sensor data to the at least one server or transmitting, via the computing device, the analyzed sensor data to the at least one third party server.

Abstract: A method of providing a regional motion display includes receiving a set of temporal images of a target area, generating a set of temporal difference images from the set of temporal images and generating a regional motion display from the set of temporal difference images. The regional motion display includes a representative line through the target area along a y-axis and an x-axis representing time. The method further includes displaying the regional motion display. In some cases, generating the regional motion display includes calculating, for each y-axis pixel, an integral of all pixels along a perpendicular or non-perpendicular line to the target area, a contour along the target area, or a surface of the target area in a temporally corresponding difference image of the set of temporal difference images in a difference image and assigning, for each y-axis pixel, the integral of all pixels as a pixel value.

Abstract: A unitary coiled connector component for use within a 3D bioprinter or cell printer. The unitary coiled connector comprising a metal sleeve, a PEEK insert, and a printer tip, and configured for connection to a valve within the cell printer.

Abstract: A coating is a mixture of polybenzimidazole polymer and an epoxy. The coating may further include a primer underlying the coating. The coating may further include an adhesion promoter. A solution includes a polybenzimidazole polymer, an epoxy resin, an initiator, and a carrier solvent. The solution may further include a stabilizer and/or an adhesion promoter.

Abstract: New compositions for use as protective coatings and/or adhesives are provided. The compositions comprise a hydrocarbon resin (e.g., terpene rosin) and a rubber (e.g., EPDM) dispersed or dissolved in a solvent system. The solvent system is preferably a single-solvent system, and the compositions are preferably free of surfactants, dyes, and chromophores. The compositions can be cured or dried to form layers or films that are chemically and thermally resistant, but that can be readily dissolved and removed at the appropriate stage in the fabrication process.
