20110280700 | TRANSFER DEVICE - A transfer device to assist a user in moving between vertically displaced locations has a storage enclosure mounted or mountable to the exterior of a motor vehicle. The storage enclosure protects components from external conditions, weather, etc., and typically is made of steel, plastic, etc. A user platform is supported on a drawer assembly that can be completely encased in the storage enclosure. Movement of the drawer assembly is controlled by a drawer extension mechanism that selectively extends and retracts the drawer assembly into and out of the storage enclosure between a stored position completely inside the storage enclosure and an operative position outside the storage enclosure. When the drawer assembly is in an operative position outside the storage enclosure, a platform elevating mechanism can raise and lower the user platform between a lower, compacted storage position and an elevated position using a scissors linkage that links the user platform to a drawer assembly support such as a tray. The elevating mechanism can be an actuator having a cylinder pivotably mounted to the tray and a slidable rod pivotably mounted to the scissors linkage in a manner that permits raising the seat as the rod is extended outwardly from the actuator cylinder. A control system monitors the position of the drawer assembly and the vertical position of the user platform and can prevent undesired operation such as when a motor vehicle engine is still running or a motor vehicle door is closed. | 11-17-2011 |
20120118341 | STORABLE EXTERIOR LIFT COVER - Storable exterior lift cover systems, apparatus, devices, methods, etc. are configured to be used with a lift device or the like (such as an exterior lift that raises, transports, stores and lowers mobility devices like scooters, power chairs and the like) mounted to a motor vehicle using a trailer hitch or the like. A covering apparatus has a foldable frame that can be unfolded to allow a pliable cover to extend over the lift platform and any cargo. Retraction of the cover and folding of the frame compactly configures and stores the cover apparatus, for example between the lift platform and a motor vehicle to which the lift is secured. Embodiments of the storable exterior lift cover permit easy deployment and storage of a cover that can be reliably transported externally in its deployed or stored configuration. | 05-17-2012 |
20130022434 | PLATFORM LIFT TRAILER AND COUPLING SYSTEM - A platform lift trailer includes a chassis to which a lift device is mounted. The chassis is configured to be coupled to a standard motor vehicle trailer hitch or the like using a coupler. Some embodiments of the coupler provide protection against larges torsional forces applied between a motor vehicle and coupled trailer when they are angularly displaced relative to one another. One or more ground-engaging wheel assemblies are mounted to the chassis to assist in supporting the weight of the lift and any cargo thereon. The platform lift trailer is highly adaptable so that a wide variety of lifts can be mounted to the platform lift trailer and thus to smaller motor vehicles. Adaptation of mobility lifts and the like to a larger array of motor vehicles is therefore possible. One or more embodiments of a trailer coupler use torque-limiting apparatus so that vertical angular displacements of a motor vehicle and a coupled trailer do not apply large forces directly between the motor vehicle and the trailer. Instead, the coupler torque-limiting structure limits such forces using a biasing means such as a spring or the like to accommodate or limit torsional forces applied between the motor vehicle and the trailer. The biasing means also can limit the maximum angular displacement allowed between the motor vehicle and coupled trailer. | 01-24-2013 |

To aid in protecting the lift and any cargo thereon, a covering apparatus has a foldable frame that can be unfolded to allow a pliable material cover to extend over the lift platform and any cargo. Retraction of the cover and folding of the frame compactly configures and stores the cover apparatus, for example in space between the lift platform and a motor vehicle to which the lift is secured.

20100076885 | CLEARING AND SETTLEMENT OF TRADES IN OVER THE COUNTER MARKETS - A post-trade settlement system matches trade tickets relating to trades executed on a trading system or by another means. Matched trades are novated by executing a trade for the volume and price of the matched trade between a first counterparty and the settlement system and an equal but opposite trade between the settlement system and the second counterparty to the trade. The positions of each counterparty are continuously netted. There is no physical settlement of the positions but profit and loss is transferred periodically. If physical settlement is required a notice of interest is sent and a counterparty identified. A settlement swap is then executed between the settlement system and the two counterparties to the physical settlement. The settlement swap moves the position to be settled physically from the settlement system to each of the counterparties whereupon the amount moved can be settled by a transfer from one counterparty to the other. | 03-25-2010 |

20150113718 | Protective Athletic Helmet to Reduce Linear and Rotational Brain Acceleration - A protective helmet is provided having an upper section and a lower section, each having an inside and an outside surface. A gap is formed between the upper section and the lower section. Resilient members in the form of a plurality of spaced apart compression struts are provided for connecting the upper section to the lower section. The upper section is movable with respect to the lower section whereby a portion of the force of an impact to the upper section will be absorbed and will not be transmitted to the lower section. A suspension harness is attached to the inside surface of the lower section. The suspension harness is adapted to receive a portion of the helmet user's head and to keep the helmet user's head from contacting the inside surface of the upper section. | 04-30-2015 |

20090026683 | Bayer machine tool pallet systems - This patent relates to a system for rotating work pieces about a horizontal center line so that one or more sides can be machined with out the need of re-clamping. Pallets or log pallets may be used for holding work pieces so the pallets with work pieces can be removed from the machine for parts handling or set-up. Related improvements are described: A rotary table that reduces angular error caused by off center weight, protection from damage caused by inadvertent crash impact, protection from pallets falling from inadvertent unclamping and improved cleaning of pallet locating surfaces. An off machine parts loading index station that prevents inadvertent release of the pallet and provides the optimum ratio between the manual crank and the pallet rotation. A powered actuator that can be used with means for transferring pallets between the machining center and index stations or index and support stations that are mounted to mobile carts. | 01-29-2009 |

20090097418 | System and method for network service path analysis - Systems and methods for network service path analysis analyze and manage the delivery of applications over a network. A program running on a computer utilizes a Layer 3 topology of a computer network to create a directed graph representing deliverability of packets across the network. By analyzing access control lists and firewall rule sets from the network, along with modeling routing protocol behavior and policy as packet filters, the program performs a series of matrix multiplications, using an optimized decomposition of the IP packet space. The resulting matrix contains all of the path information for all deliverable packets. The matrix populates a network path database that captures the set of packets deliverable between any pair of Internet Protocol addresses in the network. | 04-16-2009 |
