Abstract: An adjustable base is provided that includes a fixed frame and an articulating frame connected to the fixed frame. The articulating frame includes an upper body frame pivotally connected to the upper section of the fixed frame, a seat frame pivotally connected to the upper body frame and movable along a central section of the fixed frame, and a leg frame pivotally connected to the fixed frame. An actuator is further included and has a first end connected to the seat frame adjacent to the leg frame and a second end that is connected to a linkage attached to the articulating frame. Upon activation of the actuator, the upper body frame is articulated upward and the seat frame moves linearly along the central section of the fixed frame toward the upper section of the fixed frame. Systems and methods for controlling an adjustable base assembly are further provided.

Abstract: A light fixture comprising a chamber portion is disclosed. In some embodiments, the fixture comprises a chamber portion shaped to house circuitry required for lighting elements such as light emitting diodes (LEDs) mounted elsewhere in the fixture. In some embodiments, LEDs are mounted facing a back reflector, which in turn reflects light out of a troffer to form an indirect lighting fixture. In some embodiments, light is emitted from one mixing chamber. In some embodiments, light is emitted from two or more mixing chambers. In some embodiments, LEDs are mounted on a heat sink which cooperates with a chamber portion.

Abstract: An assembly includes a board, a heat sink, one or more retainers, and/or one or more light-emitting diode packages. The board includes a face surface, a rear surface opposite the face surface, and side edges. The one or more retainers are configured to secure the board to the heat sink. One or more light-emitting diode packages can be secured to the board for creating a light-emitting device assembly.

Abstract: Board assemblies, light emitting device assemblies and related methods are provided. An assembly can include a board comprising a face surface, a rear surface opposite the face surface and side edges around a periphery of the board. The assembly can also include a heat sink for dissipating heat from the board. The assembly can also include a retainer configured to secure the board to the heat sink. One or more light-emitting diode packages can be secured to the board for creating a light-emitting device assembly.

Abstract: In an arrangement to convey toner from a toner bottle of a toner reservoir into a toner receiving container, the toner bottle has a cover to close an output opening thereof. The cover has an upper cover part to accept the toner bottle and a lower cover part to close the outlet opening. A first locking unit provided within the cover arresting the lower cover part to the upper cover part such that it cannot be displaced before placement of the toner reservoir onto the toner receiving container. The cover is receivable on the toner receiving container so that the outlet opening of the toner reservoir is positioned above a filling opening of the toner receiving container. A slider has an outlet opening, the slider closing or opening the filling opening of the toner receiving container. The slider has an unlocking unit that unlocks the first locking unit upon placement of the toner reservoir on the toner receiving container so that the lower cover part is no longer arrested to the upper cover part.

Abstract: A conveyor idler support frame (10) for rotatably mounting a conveyor idler (12, 14, 16, 20, 22) is provided. The frame is displaceable between an operation position and an idler removal position. In the operation position, the frame places a mounted idler in operational engagement with a conveyor belt (18). In the idler removal position, the frame brings the mounted idler out of engagement with the conveyor belt to allow the idler to be removed from the frame.

Abstract: Devices and methods for externally accessing and adjusting a lighting fixture optic and adjusting a lighting fixture enclosure on its base. Embodiments provide a lighting fixture enclosure with an opening at the top that both receives a removable screw for securing the top and, when the screw is removed, allows insertion of a tool to rotate a reflector and thereby adjust the rotational direction of the light. Such a reflector may be movably coupled to an inside surface of the fixture top while being secured to a bracket. A tool inserted through the opening at the top of the fixture may engage an aperture in the bracket such that as the tool is rotated, the bracket and secured reflector also rotate.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for HIPAA compliant outpatient process automation is provided. The method includes prompting a user to select at least one anonymous or patient specific application. If the user selects an anonymous application, the method includes receiving from the user anonymous query information and matching the anonymous query information to anonymous information stored in a database, and thereafter displaying guidance based upon the matched anonymous information. If the user selects a patient specific application, the method includes receiving from the user patient specific query information and matching the patient specific query information to patient specific information stored in a database, and thereafter displaying guidance based upon the matched patient specific information.
