  • Patent number: 9889691
    Abstract: A printer system comprising a printer having a printhead operatively installed therein, the printer including a housing having opposing thumb screws extending outwardly therefrom, and a mount comprising a printer bracket having opposite printer bracket side members each terminating in a distally extending side member leg configured for attachment to the rail, the printer bracket side members each further having a mounting slot formed therein with a vertical slot portion and at least one horizontal slot portion and a rail bracket having a rail bracket top member with opposite substantially downwardly extending rail bracket side members terminating in outwardly extending side member legs configured for attachment to the rail, whereby the printer is received within the mount and selectively positioned therein as by engaging the thumb screws within the mounting slots so as to position the printhead as desired beneath the rail bracket top member.

  • Patent number: 6195776
    Abstract: In a computer implemented synthesis system, a method of generating a test program for use in testing device with ATE (automated test equipment). The computer implemented steps of receiving an HDL specification representing a design to be realized in physical form and storing the HDL specification in a computer memory unit, receiving constraints applicable to the design, and compiling the HDL specification with a compiler to produce a netlist description of the design, wherein the netlist comprises functional logic blocks and connections there between, including sequential cells and combinational logic. The netlist is a scan-based sequential circuit netlist having multiple, skewed capture events. Combinational circuit analysis is then performed on the sequential logic netlist. The netlist is then processed to transform the netlist to a combinational logic netlist.

  • Patent number: 4634183
    Abstract: A toilet chair comprises a seat portion supported on a support frame. A footrest mounted on the frame is pivotable between an operative forwardly projecting position and a retracted position within the frame, and the frame is open at the rear to fit over and around a WC pan. The frame has a front cross member on which the footrest is pivotally mounted. Projections of the footrest engage the cross member to define the lowered operative position of the footrest and thus the cross member 12 provides stop means defining that position, in addition to being a structural member of the frame and forming a pivot shaft for the footrest.
