20100125290GUARDED SURGICAL KNIFE HANDLE - A guarded surgical knife handle includes a lower handle portion, an upper handle postion, and a button. The lower handle portion includes a blade holder, a proximal pair of lateral shelves, and a distal pair of lateral shelves. The upper handle portion includes a guard portion, a proximal post between the proximal pair of shelves with a first widened post portion wider than the lateral spacing between the shelves, and a distal post between the distal pair of shelves with a second widened post portion wider than the lateral spacing between the shelves. The button has a button waist narrower than the second lateral spacing and a widened button portion below the button waist wider than the second lateral spacing. A bias member connected to the button and at least one of the handle portions provides an upward force on the button.05-20-2010
20100125293GUARDED SURGICAL KNIFE HANDLE - A guarded surgical knife handle includes a handle portion with a blade holder, a chamber within the handle portion, and a slot. The guarded surgical knife handle also includes a guard having an open distal end slidably mounted within the handle portion that can slide longitudinally between an unguarded position and a guarded position. The guard is sized to surround the blade in the guarded position. The guarded surgical knife handle also includes a latch that latches the guard when the guard is slid into the guarded position and a first button that disengages the latch. The guarded surgical knife handle includes a bias member that forces the guard in a proximal direction to an unguarded position when the latch is disengaged along with a second button extending through the slot used to slide the guard in a distal direction into the guarded position.05-20-2010

20090295142REPOSITIONABLE LABEL AND RELATED METHOD - A label that includes an adhesive and is configured to be applied to an item, and related method. The adhesive is characterized as having a permanence that starts to develop upon contact of the label with the item and builds over time so eventually the label is permanently coupled to the item. The item can be damaged as a result of the label being removed from the item after the label is permanently coupled to the item. If the label is applied to the item in a first position, then the adhesive is configured to allow a removal of the label from the item without damaging the items and a reapplication of the label to the item in a second position within a limited period of time.12-03-2009

20110130887REFRIGERATION MONITOR UNIT - A control unit is attached to or embedded within a refrigeration appliance to monitor electric power voltage and/or frequency supplied by the mains. If the unit detects a sag or peak in either the voltage or frequency, the control unit either separates any high demand elements of the appliance from the mains to reduce demand in a sag or energizes the elements in a peak. When the control system separates the refrigeration compressor from the mains, a food spoilage monitoring system monitors the food storage compartments. This system utilizes food industry temperature and time algorithms to ensure the food does not spoil. If food spoilage could occur, the unit re-energizes the compressor to allow it to lower the temperature provided the power is sufficient to operate the compressor unit without damaging it. Once the sensed temperature is restored to a safe level, the unit separates the compressor from the mains.06-02-2011

20110265362THREE-DIMENSIONAL DISPLAY POST - The present technology provides an illustrative display post that includes a first side, a second side, and a third side. The third side of the display post has a concave portion extending along a length of the third side such that the concave portion is configured to receive a convex surface. The third side also has a first flat portion along a side of the concave portion and extending along the length of the third side and a second flat portion along an opposite side of the concave portion as the first flat portion and extending along the length of the third side.11-03-2011

20090134371Curb box lifter - A curb box lifter comprises a frame that includes crossbar members, through holes, or partially drilled openings as points of engagement for a pry bar for the purpose of upwardly lifting water main curb boxes. The proximal end of the curb box lifter includes a pipe threaded region enabling it to be spun into a receiving female threaded curb box lid, usually situated in the ground. A pry bar introduced into the curb box lifter at its points of engagement, in conjunction with a block like device used a leverage point, enables the upward motion of the curb box as a downward force is employed to the pry bar distal end.05-28-2009

20110054310PORTABLE MEDICAL IMAGING APPARATUS FOR DOCUMENTATION OF DERMATOLOGICAL AREAS AND SUBJECTS OF INTEREST - An imaging apparatus in accordance with the present invention comprises a hand-held, battery powered imaging device that provides: (1) an Identification Picture wherein an image of the patient's face is captured for identification purposes; (2) an Area of Interest picture wherein an image of the general area of interest on the patient is captured; and (3) a Subject of Interest picture wherein an image of the subject lesion of interest is captured. Two digital imaging systems, including a wide-angle (e.g. fisheye) imaging system and a macro (close-up) imaging system, are provided to allow for the simultaneous capture of AOI and SOI images thereby capturing an image that identifies the location of the lesion on the body and an image that comprises a close-up view of the lesion. A light source or flash provides illumination during the image capture phase. A laser range finding configuration including spaced first and second lasers are angularly disposed so as to cast beams that intersect at a desired distance from the imaging apparatus thereby allowing the user to quickly position the imaging apparatus at a predetermined distance from the patient when capturing images. Audible output provides the user with input to assist in properly capturing the images, and a trigger-type actuator is provided to initiate image capture.03-03-2011
