20160061576 | Two Plane Protractor and Display Device - A two plane protractor for installing adjoining pieces of molding and trim includes a first pair of wall angle measurement arms interconnected to one another through a gear assembly that allows the wall angle measurement arms to be angularly adjusted in unison relative to one another in a first degree of freedom. A pair of spring angle measurement arms are attached respectively to the wall angle measurement arms for rotating in a second degree of freedom about respective longitudinal axes of the wall angle measurement arms. A first sensor measures angular displacement between the first and second wall angle measurement arms and a second sensor measures rotational tilt of at least one spring angle measurement arm. A microprocessor calculates bevel and miter angles based upon the measured wall and spring angles. An electronic display digitally indicates calculated bevel and miter angles and graphically depicts icons simulating trim pieces and suggested placement on a compound miter saw for cutting the calculated bevel and miter angles. | 03-03-2016 |

20090065002 | HUMIDITY CONTROLLER - A breathing assistance apparatus adapted to deliver humidified gases at a desired level of humidity to a patient including a humidifier and a heated conduit is disclosed. The humidifier includes a controller which controls the humidifier, or the humidifier and the heated conduit to deliver the gases to the patient at the required humidity or temperature, without the requirement for sensors in the gases stream. The controller uses information already available to the controller, without the requirement for additional information to be provided by sensors in the gases stream. This means the need for sensors in the gases stream is dispensed with. A significant benefit is achieved as sensors are not required in the conduit and thus the apparatus is simple and less bulky. | 03-12-2009 |

20100043791 | HUMIDIFIER WITH INTERNAL HEATING ELEMENT AND HEATER PLATE - A respiratory humidifier chamber for use with a breathing assistance apparatus is described. The chamber comprises a water-tight vessel having an inlet for receiving gases from the breathing assistance apparatus, and an outlet through which heated humidified gases exit the vessel for delivery to a patient. The chamber has a partition which divides the chamber into upstream and downstream sub-chambers. The sub-chambers are separated by the partition except for an aperture which passes through the partition and allows gaseous communication between the sub-chambers. The downstream sub-chamber includes a heater base which heats a volume of water contained within it The aperture is located above the volume of water. The upstream sub-chamber contains an internal heater which heats gases passing through it from the inlet to the aperture. At least part of the internal heater is located immediately adjacent the aperture. | 02-25-2010 |
