Patent number: 11906881Abstract: A system for signaling an overload of a foam mattress, including a foam mattress having a plurality of conductive inserts located near a bottom surface and a contact pad positioned below the bottom surface of the mattress. The system may generate an overload alarm signal as a function of receiving one or more signal outputs from the sensor over a period of time. The system may also generate an overload alarm signal as a function of receiving a plurality of individual signal outputs from a plurality of one or more conductive inserts located within a predetermined area of the sensor.Type: GrantFiled: December 2, 2021Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: Direct Supply, Inc.Inventors: Justin T. Morgan, David Gorodetsky

Patent number: 11805908Abstract: A reclining chair or the like provides a set of base-mounted extendable arms that extend outward as the chair reclines to brace the chair against tipping. A force-limiting coupler allows the reclining mechanism and the extendable arms to be linked while maintaining different force regimes.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2022Date of Patent: November 7, 2023Assignee: Direct Supply, Inc.Inventors: Joshua Jakubowski, Justin T. Morgan

Publication number: 20230105325Abstract: The present invention provides an assembly having a collapsible wheelchair and an anti-rollback assembly to brake rotational movement of the wheelchair when a user is unseated, while simultaneously maintaining the ability of the wheelchair to collapse into a storage configuration. The anti-rollback assembly may include a brake bar pivotable between a lock state and an unlock state, a biasing member engaging the brake bar to exert a biasing force to move the brake bar into the lock state, and an actuator configured to engage a seat surface of the wheelchair to move the brake bar into the unlock state when the individual occupies the seat surface.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 4, 2021Publication date: April 6, 2023Inventor: Justin T. Morgan

Publication number: 20230058230Abstract: The present invention provides an assembly having a wheelchair and a lift assembly to urge the seat surface upward with respect to the frame from a lowered position when supporting a seated individual during use to an elevated position with respect to the frame as to assist the individual during ingress or egress to or from the wheelchair. The lift assembly may include a mechanical linkage and an actuator assembly. The actuator assembly produced a nonlinear lift force having a first period exhibiting a first rate of amplitude increase when the seating surface is nearer the lowered position and a second period exhibiting a second rate of amplitude change that is less than the first rate of amplitude increase when the seating surface is nearer the elevated position.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 15, 2022Publication date: February 23, 2023Inventors: Justin T. Morgan, Anthony J. Patrick, Shawn A. Ostendorf

Patent number: 11523953Abstract: The present invention provides an assembly having a wheelchair and a lift assembly to urge the seat surface upward with respect to the frame from a lowered position when supporting the seated individual during use to an elevated position with respect to the frame assisting the individual during ingress or egress to or from the wheelchair. The lift assembly may include a mechanical linkage and an actuator. The assembly also provides at least one brake configured to block rotation of the wheelchair wheel with respect to the wheelchair frame in a locked state and disengaging with the wheels to allow rotation of the wheel with respect to the frame in an unlocked state. The assembly also provides a brake linkage communicating between the lift assembly and the brake to move the brake into the lock state when the seat surface moved to the elevated position.Type: GrantFiled: November 20, 2019Date of Patent: December 13, 2022Assignee: Direct Supply, Inc.Inventors: Justin T. Morgan, Anthony J. Patrick, Joshua J. Jakubowski, Jason Ronald Geidel, Michael Dennis Peters

Patent number: 9946516Abstract: The present disclosure relates to utilizing an application workflow framework to manage workflow on an application executing on a computing device. An illustrative workflow routine can include multiple tasks than need to be completed in order to complete the workflow routine. Accordingly, a workflow framework has a workflow definition that that matches the specific workflow routine. Each of the specific tasks defined in the workflow routine can be represented by a number of interface elements within the application. At least some of the interface elements can have a number of states of execution defined by the workflow definition and having different content and display attributes. In one embodiment, the states of execution can include a pre-active state, an active state, and a post-active state.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2014Date of Patent: April 17, 2018Assignee: STARBUCKS CORPORATIONInventors: Jesse James Herlitz, Jeffrey Ryan Peters, Bryan John Clark, Dana Marie Kruse, David C. Loewenthal, Justin T. Morgan
