Patent number: 11942217Abstract: A system including a range of motion, quality of sleep, overall, and control modules. The range of motion module, prior to a procedure being performed on a patient, determines a first range of motion score of the patient based on a first signal generated by a sensor. The quality of sleep module, prior to the procedure being performed on the patient, determines a first quality of sleep score or a first pain score based on the first signal. The overall module determines a combined score based on the first range of motion score and the first quality of sleep score or the first pain score. The control module compares the combined score to a predetermined threshold and predicts an outcome of the procedure based on the comparison. The control module, based on the combined score, determines whether to perform the procedure, adjust the procedure or refrain from performing the procedure.Type: GrantFiled: November 5, 2021Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: WARSAW ORTHOPEDIC, INC.Inventors: Randal Schulhauser, Richard L. Brown, Matthew M. Morrison, Patrick W. Kinzie, Jeffrey R. VanRaaphorst, Emily C. Byrne

Publication number: 20130124174Abstract: An internally parallel PDES (“IP-PDES”) system performs logical processes in parallel and further performs the internal processing of at least one logical process in parallel. Because the IP-PDES system is PDES-based, each logical process may have its processing performed in parallel with the other logical processes. The IP-PDES system allows for certain logical processes to be designated as internally parallel meaning that the logical process, referred to as an IP logical process, has its internal processing also performed in parallel. The IP-DES system allocates multiple nodes for such an IP logical process so that executable code of the IP logical process executes in parallel at the allocated nodes to simulate the occurrence of an event. Internal parallelism within a PDES may help overcome resource limitations and help speed up the overall simulation.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 4, 2012Publication date: May 16, 2013Inventors: David R.

Patent number: 8322794Abstract: A seat damper assembly for a chair includes a rubber element having a through hole and a bracket seat having a major surface with a raised portion around a perimeter of the major surface. A support bracket is configured to be coupled with the bracket seat such that the raised portion abuts an outer edge of the support bracket. A side of the support bracket opposite the bracket seat is shaped to receive a portion of a chair frame assembly. A fastener, disposed in the through hole in rubber element, is configured to couple with a seat pan to secure the seat damper relative to the seat pan.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 2009Date of Patent: December 4, 2012Assignee: HNI Technologies Inc.Inventors: Matthew C. Brown, Travis J. Crowell, Aaron Michael Ickes, Jay R. Machael, Phillip D. Minino

Patent number: 6775953Abstract: A number of wall panel apparatuses are disclosed. In one embodiment the wall panel apparatus includes a rectangular frame, two oppositely disposed metal tiles, each tile having a number of attachment and mounting clips whereby mounting of the tiles to opposite sides of the rectangular frame is easily accomplished by locating mounting clips attached to the lower edge portions of the tiles to a bottom frame member and pivoting the upper portion of the tiles so that the attachment clips which are resilient snap into place. A glass wall panel apparatus includes the same rectangular frame, however, top and bottom channels cover the top and bottom frame members of the rectangular frame, each of the channels having hook portions for engaging the top and bottom edges of the glass panes. Also included are side shroud channels and tensioning screws to adjust the channels in relation to the glass panes.Type: GrantFiled: May 31, 2002Date of Patent: August 17, 2004Assignee: HON Technology Inc.Inventors: David J. Burken, Matthew C. Brown, Jeffrey E. Tjebkes, Chad C. Lolling, Peter A. Simmons, Tim B. Wilson, Gordon K. Hartman, Brian D. Meyer, Darren P. Williams, Thomas W. Garrett, Michael J. Frantz, Joseph A.
