Title: Sheet position adjustment assembly and method
Inventor: STAGG MARJORIE H
IPC: A61G7/10
Filed: 1993-08-17
Abstract: SHEET POSITION ADJUSTMENT ASSEMBLY AND METHOD            Abstract of the Disclosure A sheet position adjustment assembly comprises a sheet that overlies a support element such as a mattress on a relatively moveable frame of an adjustable bed.  A pair of lengthwise adjustable straps connect the sheet adjacent the head portion of the mattress to a relatively stationary base of the adjustable bed. The straps are securely sewn to the sheet by nylon stitching. mat of reinforcement material is sewn to the sheet at the attachment interface with the straps.  A low-friction fabric panel is provided on the underside of the sheet that slides on the mattress.  An upstanding rail is attached to the bed frame adjacent the head portion of the mattress to prevent collapse as the connecting straps extend thereover during the position adjustment operation.  The method of adjusting the position of the sheet comprises connecting the sheet to the fixed base portion of the adjustable bed.  The position of the moveable frame is then vertically adjusted upwardly by lifting or pivoting.  The straps used to connect the sheet to the bed generate a pulling force as the moveable frame and mattress rise, thereby adjusting the position of the sheet and the patient positioned thereon, toward the head of the bed.

Inventor: FOWLER GLENN S
IPC: G06F11/32
Filed: 1994-10-14
Abstract: Techniques for analyzing and controlling operation of a system of cooperating processes. A library of system calls used by the processes is replaced by a dynamically-linked library which performs the system calls and also sends messages including that the system calls have been performed. The messages are received by a display system which responds to the messages by making a graphical display showing the current state of the system of processes. The graphical display displays the system of processes as a tree. Nodes in the tree represent the processes in the system and resources such as files used by the processes; edges in the tree represent relationships between processes and other processes or resources. Users may control which system calls result in messages, may control the rate at which the displaysystem responds to the messages, and may also control execution of the processes.

Inventor: ELDERING CHARLES ANTHONY
IPC: H04M1/00
Filed: 1995-05-05
Abstract: A diverter interfaces first and second telecommunication lines from first and second telecommunication sources, respectively, with a third line coupled to a station set.  The diverter includes separate line and set monitors and a control unit.  The line and set monitors monitor and detect predetermined selective signals such as (a) ringing signals propagating on the first and second lines, and (b) line access codes, flash hook, and line change requests signals generated by the station set.  In response to the detected predetermined selective signals, the line and set monitors generate first, second, and third output control signals representative of the predetermined selective signals on the first, second, and third lines, respectively, to the control unit.  The control unit, which is responsive to output signals from the line and set monitors, selectively couples a predetermined one of the first and second lines directly to the third line without interfering with the predetermined selective signals and states present on the first, second, and third lines.  The control unit also generates predetermined output control signals to the line and set monitors for generating output signals such as call waiting signals for transmission to the station set on the third line.  The diverter is powered from the first and second lines, and its actions remain invisible to and do not affect the first and second telecommunication sources and the station set.
