Title: Method and apparatus for alternating pressure of a low air loss patient support system.
Inventor: VRZALIK JOHN H
IPC: A61G7/00
Filed: 1988-06-01
Abstract: Method and apparatus for preventing bed sores in a bedridden patient. A low air loss bed (10) is provided including a frame (12), a first set of substantially rectangular air bags (58) for supporting a patient thereon mounted transversely on the frame, and a second set of substantially rectangular air bags (58) for supporting a patient thereon mounted transversely on the frame, and all of the air bags are connected to a gas source. The configuration of the air bags (58) is such that when the first set of air bags (58) is inflated, the patient supported thereon is moved toward the first side of the frame (12) of the low air loss bed (10) and when the second set of air bags (58) is inflated while the first set of air bags (58) is deflated, the patient is moved toward the second side of the low air loss bed (10). The configuration of the air bags (58) also retains the patient on the top surface of the air bags when the patient is rolled in one direction or the other. The operator of the low air loss bed defines the pressures in individual air bags (58) corresponding to each of three positions to which the patient is rotated. The pressures are maintained by a feed back control system which actuates valves connecting the gas source to separate sets of air bags. The three positions to be sequentially attained thereby causing controlled oscillation of the patient from one side of the bed frame to the other. Because each rotation position corresponds to operator defined pressures, the oscillation is customized for individuals of different body weights.

Abstract: An incremental motion mechanism (10) which uti­
lizes first and second one-way clutches (44, 46) attached 
to the output shaft (48) of the mechanism. The first one-­
way clutch (44) is used to prevent back up of the output 
member, while the second one-way clutch (46) is used to 
incrementally rotate the output shaft (48). Actuating 
means (52, 56) operated under the control of a controller 
(24) are used for adjusting the extent of rotation of the 
output shaft (48). The mechanism may be used in a docu­
ment feeding apparatus having a driven feed roller (26) 
and a retard roller (28) arranged in operative engagement 
with sort feed roller (26), wherein said retard roller (28) is 
mounted on the output shaft (48) for rotation therewith.

IPC: B42C19/02
Filed: 1989-08-26
Abstract: Printed articles are converted and conveyed with high performance by a method wherein the printed articles are organised in clusters (2, 2'). A cluster of printed articles is a group of at least two individual printed articles which are jointly processed in cluster streams over a partial section or in a partial process. Such a cluster stream can be divided or reduced to a cluster stream of lower magnitude (decreasing number of printed articles per cluster). It is also possible to mix or combine cluster streams. As a result, it becomes possible to provide a processing performance at the desired positions, within an overall system, which in principle has no upper limit. At the same time, the process permits increased flexibility by means of special buffer facilities, redundancy, etc, with relatively low expenditure of materials and costs.

The substitute television programs may be stored and/or transmitted to the panelist's home in compacted or noncompacted form. In compacted form, a memory stores the first frame of video information for the substitute television program and for subse­quent frames, stores only the video information repre­senting a change from the video information stored for a previous frame. In one embodiment, the stored video information represents the difference between each frame and the first frame. In a second embodi­ment, the video change information represents the differences between each frame and the immediately preceding frame. A system for encoding an identifi­cation code in the leading overscan portion of the active line period of a horizontal line of video infor­mation is also shown.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for mounting a die (62), par­ticularly a rigid cutting die, on a die cylinder (22) includes having a bubble (116) along a seal (76) on the die to bridge any gaps between the die (62) and the die cylinder (22) when the die is initially positioned on the die cylinder (22). This bubble seal (76) enables a vacuum to be applied between the initially positioned die (62) and the die cylinder (22) to pull the die (62) down against and into conformity with the surface of the die cylinder, at the same time flattening the bubble seal (76). A key (68) at a trailing edge (66) of the die (62) locates in an axial keyway (50) in the die cylinder (22) to circumferentially position the die (62); a bolt (90) is then inserted at a leading edge (86) of the die (62) to establish axial location. During operation the die (62) is held in position by the vacuum. Beam sensors (56, 58) and light reflectors (52, 94) may be incorporated to sense when a wrong die (62) is present and shut down the apparatus. Ball valve members (150) may be incorporated in the surface of the die cylinder (22) to distribute the vacuum and also to enable the die (22) to be rolled along the surface of the die cylinder while initially being positioned.
