  • Patent number: 4737173
    Abstract: A room air treatment system in which air is drawn through a large particle prefilter, a first carbon filter, a second dual honeycomb matrix carbon filter in which the honeycomb cells in adjacent matrices are offset relative to one another, a blower mounted on vibration isolation mounts and is expelled by the blower into a plenum from when it exits upwardly through a fine particle HEPA filter and finally out through a final filter which is a combination fine particle filter and carbon filter. A filter change warning system is provided which includes a 3500 hour filter change indicator, an every 7000 hour filter change indictor, a back-up warning indicator, a mute button for muting the warning indicator and a recycle system for restarting the hour count.

  • Patent number: 4715074
    Abstract: A novel, safer crib structure is provided herein. This invention provides a crib in which the mattress can be selectively supported at two different heights with respect to the sides of the crib. In one embodiment, the mattress support is a sheet of plywood securely held in a groove in each of the facing end gables. A fixed height back wall is hinged to the end gables. The front wall is a drop side wall vertically slidably secured to the end gables. To change the height of the mattress, the drop side front wall is slidably removed, the sheet of plywood is slid out of one groove and slid into another groove, and the dropside front wall is again slidably secured to the end gables. In a preferred embodiment, a single groove is used to retain the mattress support, but the end gables are affixed to the back wall in such way that one gable is higher than the other gable. Wheels or castors are provided under the shorter gable to provide a level orientation.
