  • Patent number: 10592691
    Abstract: Method includes determining that a personal communication device is within a designated range of a medical system. The personal communication device is configured to transmit and receive data through a telecommunication network. The method also includes receiving an identifying signal from the personal communication device while within the designated range of the medical system for identifying a user associated with the personal communication device. The method also includes determining that the user associated with the personal communication device is permitted to use the medical system. The method also includes opening a session for the user to use the medical system. The method also includes establishing a dedicated link between the personal communication device and the medical system such that other users are unable to use the medical system during the session. The method also includes closing the session, thereby permitting the other users to use the medical system.

  • Publication number: 20080042030
    Abstract: A Roofer's Lifesaver is a set of (2) units. These units attach to any pitch roof using adjustable roof pads (34),(36),(40), and (42). There is a handle with a nut attached (22) used to tighten Roofer's Lifesaver to the roof. A pipe is then placed between the units and used to tie safety rope and harness to. This Invention is designed for roofers safety. This invention is also designed for efficiency for roofers as it requires no tools to attach to roof. Also two roofers can work off the same tool and work both sides of the roof.
