Abstract: Designs for a magnetic mounting system that facilitate wireless charging. The magnetic mounting system generally includes an attachment member engaged with a device that interfaces magnetically with a carrier member. The attachment member may comprise a split ring or discontinuous ring comprising arcuate members that allows inductive coupling between a charge transmitting coil and a charge receiving coil to be achieved as the arcuate members do not interfere with the inductive coupling. Specifically, rather than a solid plate in which the RF energy emitted by the charge transmitting coil generates eddy currents in the plate, the arcuate members are substantially transparent to the RF energy such that inductive coupling may be achieved.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a bar system for securing a snow fence to a membrane pad assembly connected to a structure. The bar system comprises a base bracket with an arm attachment portion having one or more openings and an arm bracket comprising one or more openings for operably connecting to the arm attachment portion using fasteners. At least one of the openings in the base bracket is configured to operably connect to the membrane pad assembly. At least one of the one or more openings in the arm bracket comprising an arcuate opening so as to allow movement along X,Y and rotational axis, e.g. horizontally, vertically and/or to allow the arm bracket to move between an open position and a closed position relative to the arm attachment portion so as to allow entry of a bar extrusion. The bar extrusion being secured by the fasteners in the one or more openings between the arm attachment portion of the base bracket and the arm bracket so as to hold snow, ice and other objects.

Abstract: A surgical positioner system for a support table having a side rail having a clamp assembly for attaching to the side rail. The clamp assembly having a spring and a locking assembly with movement in the x- and y-plane; and extension provides sliding movement in the z-plane. The extension being dimensioned to be operably connected to said clamp assembly and a rotational assembly. A rotational assembly has a portion for operably connecting to the extension, a device attachment portion, and a rotational assembly operably connected to the device attachment portion for providing rotational thereof. A boot having a holder portion and a flexible attachment can be attached to the device attachment portion. The surgical positioner provides motion from different force factors causing multiple components to move in a coordinated way using such established pivots and useful in performing various surgical procedures including direct anterior approach total hip replacement surgery.

Abstract: An apparatus comprising a clamp with a mounting body having downwardly extending legs with at least one leg configured with an arcuate surface and a slot formed in a bottom surface of said mounting body by the downwardly extending legs for receiving a raised portion of a surface and a top portion for securing the device thereon. The clamp further includes one or more pins being received in one or more push-pin holes formed in the arcuate surface of the mounting body at a predetermined angle relative to said slot, whereby the predetermined angle can secure the clamp to varying designs of the raised portion, and a fastener adapted to be received in a fastener hole formed adjacent the one or more push-pin holes in the arcuate surface to force the one or more pins against the raised portion disposed in said slot and secure the clamp thereto.

Abstract: A clamp assembly that may be used for securing to a raised portion of a surface. The clamp assembly comprising a mounting body of a general block shape having a slot for receiving the raised portion formed in a bottom surface of the mounting body attaching the clamp assembly thereto. The clamp assembly is configured with one or more pins that may be formed in a substantially elongated cylindrical shape. The pins may be configured to be received in one or more push-pin holes formed in the mounting body, whereby the push-pin holes extend to the slot from a side surface of push-pin holes. The clamp assembly includes a fastening element adapted to be received in a fastener hole formed adjacent the push-pin holes in the side surface of the mounting body. The fastening element is configured to secure, attach and hold the clamp assembly to the standing seam by forcing the pins against the raised portion of the surface disposed in the slot.

Abstract: Modular mounting systems for supportably engagement of one or more devices. The systems may include corresponding attachment members and carrier members for selective supportive engagement of one or more devices relative to a base. The attachment members and carrier members may be magnetically engageable. Various form factors for devices, base members, carrier members, attachment members, and other portions of the system are described.

Abstract: A multi-directional, equalizer clamp device is disclosed, said clamp device being configured to attach and secure objects, such as pins, to the side rail of a support and/or operating table via a single-point of operation. The clamp device comprises upper and lower body portions which are configured to clamp to a side rail along a primary clamping direction, and are further configured to receive objects and clamp them along a secondary clamping direction. The clamp device further comprises a control assembly, such as a knob, to facilitate and achieve simultaneous clamping along both primary and secondary clamping directions at a single point of control.

Abstract: A mount for supportably engaging an article. The mount includes a bulbous member that may include a convexly shaped surface area. The convexly shaped surface area may be supportively contactable with a first interconnect portion of a carrier member. An attachment member that is operatively associable with a device may be removably engageable with a second interconnect portion of the carrier member. The carrier member may be moved throughout a continuum of positions defined by the convexly curved surface area of the bulbous member. Additionally, the bulbous member may be supportably engaged by a variety of embodiments of support structures for supporting or mounting the mount.

Abstract: A retention apparatus, system and method of attaching items, panels or other devices to a rail formed in longitudinal lengths configured with a cross-sectional profile having multiple cooperating structures between the rail and a channel nut including a recess formed between a tooth and shelf on an interior first channel portion of the rail and a flange of the channel nut, between an anchor latch of the rail and hook flange on the channel nut, and cooperating forces and movement of the biasing element secured to the channel nut.

Abstract: An a clamp connector apparatus, system, and method for mounting a solar panel to a cross member while retaining snow, ice, items and other objects on a wall, rooftop and other structure. A clamp mounting apparatus, system, and method for mounting the retention apparatus and system to a stanchion assembly for a membrane roof thereby joining the cross member anchor assembly to a latch assembly of top block.

Abstract: A clamp assembly that may be used for securing to a raised portion of a surface. The clamp assembly comprising a mounting body of a general block shape having a slot for receiving the raised portion formed in a bottom surface of the mounting body attaching the clamp assembly thereto. The clamp assembly is configured with one or more pins that may be formed in a substantially elongated cylindrical shape. The pins may be configured to be received in one or more push-pin holes formed in the mounting body, whereby the push-pin holes extend to the slot from a side surface of push-pin holes. The clamp assembly includes a fastening element adapted to be received in a fastener hole formed adjacent the push-pin holes in the side surface of the mounting body. The fastening element is configured to secure, attach and hold the clamp assembly to the standing seam by forcing the pins against the raised portion of the surface disposed in the slot.

Abstract: An expandable plate configured to expand and to hold, move and maintain a body part in a specific position as needed in orthopedic surgery. The expandable plate has a bed with a guide assembly formed in a top surface configured to fit to cavity assembly of a track so as to slide in relation thereto. A carriage unit can be positioned on the track to hold a body part in a specific position, whereby when an additional linear dimension is required for a surgical procedure, the track can be expanded to extend the body part to the predetermined position using the same positioner device.
