Inventor: TRUBIANO ANTOINE
IPC: B62B3/14
Filed: 1993-03-18
Abstract: An  infant  seat  plate  for  hinge  securement adjacent a rear wall of a shopping cart is provided for blocking the leg holes in the rear wall of the shopping cart, and for positioning over a wire seat frame which is  positionable  against  the  leg  holes  in  the  rear basket area of the shopping cart.  The seat plate has a hinge connecting edge and is biased by a spring element against the rear wall to obstruct the leg holes.   The improvement in the seat plate resides in a releasable retention member being secured to the seat plate for retention engagement of the seat plate with the wire seat frame when positioned thereover in a position of use to arrest the seat plate over the seat frame.  As soon as the rear gate of the shopping cart is displaced on its lower hinge against the rear wall, it releases the  retention  member  and  the  seat  plate  is  urged automatically against the rear wall.

Title: Method and computer system for data entry of bar code symbols
Inventor: BOLME PAUL A
IPC: G06K7/00
Filed: 1993-11-17
Abstract: METHOD AND COMPUTER SYSTEM FOR DATA ENTRY             OF BAR CODE SYMBOLS                      Abstract of the Disclosure The method and system of the present invention provide for the data entry of bar code data into computer programs that are designed to accept bar code data (reader application programs) and for the data entry of bar code data into computer programs that are not designed to accept bar code data (non-reader application programs).  The bar code data is entered as a contiguous stream of characters, rather that one character at a time, so that lengthy bar code data strings will not be corrupted.  Additionally, the method and system of the present invention provide for two-way communication between bar code-reading and processing services and a reader application program so that the reader application program may, among other things, recon-figure the bar code-reading reading and processing ser-vices.   The present  invention replaces  the prior  art combination of a bar code-reading input device and special-ity hardware by embedding hardware and software within a PC.  As a result, an application program operating on the PC can reconfigure the embedded hardware and software. Both reader and non-reader application programs can operate on the PC and accept bar code data.
