Patent number: 7093313Abstract: A linkage mechanism for an adjustable arm assembly. The linkage assembly may be used to support an object, such as a headrest for use in connection with an examination table. The linkage mechanism provides structure to interlock or disengage two adjoining arm sections. The linkage mechanism controls relative movement of two adjoining arm sections without affecting the movement of non-adjoined sections or the headrest. The linkage mechanism further provides friction retention means so that the adjoining arms will retain their relative position to one another even if they are not in an interlocked position.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2003Date of Patent: August 22, 2006Assignee: The Brewer Company, LLCInventors: Jack A. DeBraal, Michael J. Marchant

Patent number: 6568008Abstract: A medical examination table is adapted to receive at least one two-way drawer assembly with a removable locking mechanism and an articulating backrest. The backrest is controlled by a linear actuator and can be adjusted to any desired position. The backrest requires a relatively small amount of space in the table, and therefore, storage capacity of the table is maximized.Type: GrantFiled: June 19, 2001Date of Patent: May 27, 2003Assignee: The Brewer Company, LLCInventors: Paul J. Siepmann, Michael J. Marchant, Edward A. Raleigh
