Abstract: A computer workstation is provided with a movable support for a video monitor which is counterbalanced such that it may be moved with a minimum exertion and a coordinated keypad for support of the keyboard for the computer is also arranged in a counterbalanced fashion for movement with a minimum exertion by the operator, both of such structures being coordinated together to provide a universally adjustable monitor work system station which both allows and encourages the operator to periodically make adjustments in the position of the various components so as to decrease or eliminate repetitive strain-type injuries which may be brought on by long continued exactly repetitive movements. The video monitor is adjustably supported with a dual adjustable support.

Abstract: A face mask carries a voice communication device including a circular housing having voice transmitting openings and an annular seat which receives a flexible film diaphragm. The diaphragm is clamped to the seat by an inner circular member which has voice transmitting openings surrounding a socket for receiving a plug-in microphone. The housing receives an outer circular shield member which also has voice transmitting openings and defines a socket for receiving a plug on a microphone cord. Electrical conductor wires extend from the microphone socket through a passage around the diaphragm to the cord socket. A sealant material is injected into the passage and into an annular chamber which is defined between the housing and the inner microphone support member and receives a peripheral edge portion of the diaphragm.

Abstract: A portable self-contained amplified and loud speaker system and apparatus is disclosed herein having improved acoustical energy propagation in connection with musical sound distribution by a musician in a marching band or group. The apparatus includes cylindrical housing provided with shoulder and waist straps and a removable back plate shaped to fit the small of the back of the person wearing the housing. An electronic component package is secured within the housing so that a control panel is exposed for volume adjustment, recording tape insertion, start/stop switches and the like. Loudspeakers are angularly fixed to the opposite ends of the housing so as to close the ends thereof and are operably coupled to the components carried in the package for radiating acoustical energy in response to amplification of electrical signals processed by the components in a predetermined propagation pattern.
