| 20090197229 | HAZARD SUPPRESSION TRAINING SIMULATOR AND METHOD OF TRAINING - A hazard-suppression training simulator for training, for example, first responders, is provided. The simulator includes a housing; at least one source of sensation (for example, a visual or an audio sensation) representing a hazardous condition, for example, a fire; at least one sensor adapted to detect a simulated or an actual hazardous condition suppressant; and a controller adapted to vary the sensation in response to the simulated or the actual suppressant detected by the at least one sensor. The simulator may also include one or more “props” to better simulate an actual hazardous conditions, for example, a trash can or a stove pot that is on fire. The simulated suppressant may be provided by a simulated fire extinguisher, for example, a simulated extinguisher emitting an electromagnetic or sonic signal representing a fire suppressant. A hazard-suppression training method employing this simulator is also disclosed. | 08-06-2009 |

| 20090278427 | ANTI-TIP INTERLOCKING LINKAGE MECHANISM FOR VERTICAL CABINETS - An anti-tip linkage mechanism for vertical file cabinets of the type having drawers and/or pivotal front panels includes molded polymeric cam follower housings that snap-fit onto each of the slide channels for the drawers or panels and non-circular connecting rods attached to cam actuators that enable interaction of the anti-tip mechanisms incorporated with each slide channel. Lock actuated auxiliary cam mechanisms and panel locking assemblies controllable by a single cabinet lock are connected with a cabinet lock by linkage bars or cables. | 11-12-2009 |
| 20110127889 | ANTI-TIP INTERLOCKING LINKAGE MECHANISM FOR VERTICAL CABINETS - An anti-tip linkage mechanism for vertical file cabinets of the type having drawers and/or pivotal front panels includes molded polymeric cam follower housings that snap-fit onto each of the slide channels for the drawers or panels and non-circular connecting rods attached to cam actuators that enable interaction of the anti-tip mechanisms incorporated with each slide channel. Lock actuated auxiliary cam mechanisms and panel locking assemblies controllable by a single cabinet lock are connected with a cabinet lock by linkage bars or cables. | 06-02-2011 |

| 20090057253 | SUPPORT TRAY WITH INFINITE MOUNTING POSITIONS - A tray for supporting a peripheral at a workstation has T-slots extending across the tray. The T-slots are used with corresponding T-nuts to mount the tray on an articulating support arm and mount a mouse support onto the tray. The mounting positions are infinite in each slot as the T-nuts can be tightened at any location. Preferably, the T-slots extend from side to side across the tray. | 03-05-2009 |
| 20090140114 | ARTICULATING SUPPORT MECHANISM WITH PIVOTAL BRAKE SHOE - A four bar articulating support mechanism has four pivot axes with one of the pivot axes being movable relative to a linkage of the support arm. The linkage has at least two arcuate slots therein that receive a pin. As the linkage is moved vertically relative to a mounting member, the pin slides in the at least two arcuate slots which pivot about a theoretical third pivot axis. The support arm has two brake shoes that are pivotally mounted on a mounting member, the brake shoes having a locking surface that corresponds to a locking surface on the linkage. The mechanism operates on a parallelogram linkage. | 06-04-2009 |
| 20090166496 | Adjustable Mouse Support - An adjustable mouse support for use with a base is provided with an elongated member, a mounting member, a bracket and a platform. The elongated member has a first pivot axis with the mounting member and a second pivot axis with the bracket. The mounting member and the bracket are located at opposite sides of the elongated member. The platform is pivotally mounted to the bracket about a third pivot axis. The first and second pivot axes are parallel to one another and allow for rotation of the elongated member and the bracket within a vertical plane. The third pivot axis is perpendicular to the first and second pivot axes and allows for rotation of the platform within a horizontal plane. The first pivot axis can be locked. | 07-02-2009 |
