Abstract: A medical waste fluid collection cart may include a container assembly and a suction tube having a lumen extending through the suction tube. The suction tube may communicate with the container to deposit waste fluid from a surgical site in the container. The container assembly may include a container, a base forming a bottom of the container, and a lid assembly. The base may include an interior surface defining a draining opening. The interior surface may extend along a ramped path toward the drain opening. The lid assembly may include a lid ring and a lid capable of engaging each other with a twist lock mechanism. The lid ring may engage the container and the lid may cover at least part of a central opening to the container. The container may have a window and a tinting assembly. The container assembly may have a vacuum level detection system.

Abstract: An apparatus for determining the timing of an internal combustion engine having a crankshaft, a camshaft, and a plurality of cylinders each having an electronically controlled fuel injector is disclosed. A crankshaft sensing device monitors the rotation of the engine crankshaft and responsively produces a crankshaft pulsetrain. Additionally, a camshaft sensing device monitors the rotation of the engine camshaft and responsively produces a camshaft pulsetrain. An engine control receives the crankshaft and camshaft pulsetrains, and responsively determines the period of each pulse, determines the rotational position of the crankshaft and camshaft, and produces an inject signal relative to one of the crankshaft and camshaft pulsetrains to the fuel injector in order to initiate fuel injection.
