Publication number: 20030134543Abstract: This invention is directed to an electrical distribution terminal block and modularly couplable electrical receptacles wherein the terminal block is formed by a plurality of stackable wafers. Each wafer has upper channels formed therein that radiate from a common upper interior intersection point to an outer surface thereof, and lower channels formed therein that radiate from a common lower interior intersection point to an outer surface thereof. When the wafers are vertically stacked, the upper channels of one wafer complementally form ducts with the lower channels of another wafer, each duct having an outlet or port in communication with the exterior of the terminal block. An electrical terminal, formed in a configuration adapted to be received in the upper or lower channels, is disposed in each formed duct and includes connectors for coupling to incoming and outgoing wires of a polarity including neutral, and for coupling that polarity or neutral to a terminal of the receptacle.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 6, 2003Publication date: July 17, 2003Applicant: Pent Assemblies, Inc.Inventors: Phillip A. McCoy, Shawn J. Kondas

Patent number: 6419197Abstract: A keyboard support system attaches to an edge of a work surface. The work surface includes a working surface and an underside. The keyboard support system includes a keyboard platform configured for supporting a keyboard. A U-shaped mounting bracket includes a top wall having a lower surface, a monolithic bottom wall and a middle wall interconnecting the top wall and the bottom wall. The bottom wall has an upper surface and a lower surface with a pair of integral, opposing guide rails projecting therefrom. Each guide rail has a length oriented substantially parallel to the bottom wall. The middle wall is configured to both resiliently bias the lower surface of the top wall against the working surface of the work surface and resiliently bias the upper surface of the bottom wall against the underside of the work surface, thereby clamping the work surface between the top wall and the bottom wall.Type: GrantFiled: June 7, 2001Date of Patent: July 16, 2002Assignee: Group Dekko Services, LLCInventors: Walter T.

Patent number: 6382577Abstract: A support device for a computer monitor or the like having a support platform and an arm connected to the platform and adapted for attachment to a base structure. Positioning of the support platform is secured by frictional engagement of coil springs on surfaces. Release mechanisms may be activated to change diameters of the coil springs, unsecuring the engagement of the springs against the surfaces. Varying spring constants allows progressive release of more than one spring.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 1999Date of Patent: May 7, 2002Assignee: Group Dekko Services, LLCInventors: Phillip McCoy, Donald E.
