Abstract: Present embodiments relate to an appliance installation pan which provides multi-functional improvement for at least installation, collection of fluid, and direction of air flow to the appliance. The installation pan also improves installation by fixing the appliance to the pan and the pan to the mobile application structure, for example RV or marine craft. Further, the installation pan provides for a repeatable means of locating the appliance and consistent installation to reduce appliance problems that may be associated with incorrect installation.

Abstract: A stability controlled assistive lifting harness apparatus is provided which includes a frame, an actuator attached to said frame, a lifting harness configured to support a user and to be raised and lowered by said actuator, said lifting harness being provided with at least one surface pressure sensor located within the lifting harness which measures a force applied to a user by the lifting harness, a harness tension sensor which measures a force applied to the lifting harness by said motor, and a controller which receives outputs from said surface pressure sensor and said harness tension sensor and controls operation of said actuator based on the outputs of the surface pressure sensor and the harness tension sensor. The controller controls operation of the actuator from moving a user between said positions.
