International Classification:

G06F017/60
A61B005/00

US Classification:

705002000

Abstract:

A system provides an information sharing architecture that allows physically separate healthcare information systems, called “deployments,” to share and exchange information. The collection of these participating deployments is referred to as the “Community,” and systems within the Community sometimes store records for patients in common. The system allows participants in the Community to share information on data changes to these patients, and to reconcile concurrent and conflicting updates to the patient's record.

International Classification:

G06F017/60

US Classification:

705002000

Abstract:

A system and method is provided for synchronizing a data set across a distributed, electronic, health record system which includes creating and storing the data set at a first deployment, assigning a unique identifier to the data set, designating the first deployment as a home deployment for the data set, and transmitting a copy of the data set, the unique identifier, and the home deployment designation to a master index server. The method also includes causing the master file index server to transmit the copy of the data set, the unique identifier, and the home deployment designation to the second deployment if it is determined that the data set should be transmitted to the second deployment, and causing the master file index server to synchronize the data set between the first deployment and the second deployment.

International Classification:

F02D 45/00

US Classification:

701113

Abstract:

An engine control, communication and starting system for outdoor power equipment that has a controller and a one or more safety interlocks. The controller monitors the status of the safety interlocks to determine whether the internal combustion engine can be started upon activation of a starting device. If the starting device is activated and one or more of the safety interlocks is in a condition that prevents operation of the engine, the controller generates a feedback message to the operator through a feedback system. The feedback message can be either an audible or visual message that relays information to the operator. The system further includes a speed selection circuit that allows the operator to select the desired engine speed. The controller operates the internal combustion engine at the selected engine speed. During engine operation, the controller terminates operation of the engine if any of the safety interlocks move to an un-allowed status.

US Classification:

56 108, 1231791

Abstract:

A lawn mower includes an internal combustion engine, an electric motor configured to start the internal combustion engine, and a blade driven by the internal combustion engine. The lawn mower further includes an assembly for stopping at least one of the blade and the internal combustion engine. The assembly includes a brake mechanism, a release mechanism, a linkage between the brake mechanism and the release mechanism. The assembly further includes an interlock configured to prevent the release mechanism from releasing the brake mechanism, and an interface allowing an operator to release the interlock. The electric motor is coupled to the assembly such that release of the brake mechanism automatically engages the electric motor to start the internal combustion engine.

International Classification:

F02N 11/00

US Classification:

417 10

Abstract:

A pressure washer includes an engine, a water pump driven by the engine, a starter motor coupled to the engine to start the engine, an energy storage device electrically coupled to the starter motor, a spray device including an activation device for starting and stopping a flow of water from the spray device, a pressure sensor, and a flow sensor. The water pump has a low pressure side and a high pressure side. The high pressure side provides pressurized water. The pressure sensor is located at the low pressure side and is configured to indicate a water pressure relative to a threshold pressure. The flow sensor is located at the low pressure side and is configured to indicate a water flow relative to a threshold flow. With the engine off, the starter motor starts the engine when the pressure sensor indicates the water pressure is above the threshold pressure and the flow sensor indicates the water flow is above the threshold flow.

International Classification:

F02D 29/06
F02D 41/04
H02J 1/00

Abstract:

An operating system for a standby generator includes a control unit, a switch, an inverter, a terminal, a current sensor, a starter circuit, a power control circuit, and an ignition kill circuit. The control unit is powered by a rechargeable twelve volt DC battery. The switch is selectively operable by the control unit to connect one of a first input or a second input to an output. The second input receives the supply of electrical power from an internal combustion engine. The inverter is positioned between the DC battery and the first input, and supplies electrical power to the electrical device when a movable contact of the switch connects the output to the first input. The power control circuit is connected to the control unit and is operable to adjust the movable contact of the switch to selectively connect the output to either the first input or the second input.

Abstract:

A battery pack for use in providing starting power for a starter motor of an internal combustion engine and to supply power to one or more auxiliary loads. The battery pack includes an outer housing that encloses a plurality of battery cells. A control unit is positioned within the outer housing and is connected to at least a starter switching element and an auxiliary switching element. The control unit controls the position of both the starter switching element and the auxiliary switching element to selectively connect the battery cells to the starter motor and the auxiliary loads. The battery pack further includes an ignition input terminal that is connected to the ignition circuit of the internal combustion engine such that the control unit can monitor the operational status of the internal combustion engine. The control unit can selectively ground the ignition coil of the ignition circuit to enable and/or terminate operation of the internal combustion engine.
