20110314637HINGE FOR AN ORTHOPEDIC BRACE - Systems, devices, and methods for adjusting rotational limits of an orthopedic brace hinge are provided. A hinge stop assembly limits rotational travel of first and second frame members of the hinge. An indexing key of the hinge stop assembly is actuatable in a direction parallel to the axis of rotation of the hinge to lock and unlock the position of the hinge stop assembly relative to the hinge. Actuation of the hinge stop assembly unlocks the indexing key and allows movement of the hinge stop assembly to set a desired limit on the flexion or extension of the brace hinge. Release of the hinge stop assembly locks the indexing key and locks the hinge stop assembly in place.12-29-2011

20080263371PROTECTED VOLUME ON A DATA STORAGE DEVICE WITH DUAL OPERATING SYSTEMS AND CONFIGURABLE ACCESS AND ENCRYPTION CONTROLS - A method provides a protected region of a data storage device associated with a computational device, where data in the protected region is primarily protected by preventing access without proper access authorization. The method comprises the steps of providing, in an unprotected region of the data storage device, a first operating system and associated operating system data; monitoring operating system data accessed by the computational device until a predetermined functionality becomes available; storing, in the protected region, the monitored operating system data; providing, in the protected region, a second operating system; transferring control of the computational device from the first operating system to the second operating system; storing data in the protected region; and preventing access to the stored data in the protected region without access authorization. In a further embodiment of the method, the second operating system optionally provides a second level of security by preventing decryption of data stored in the protected region without decryption authorization.10-23-2008
