US Patent:

43554474, Oct 26, 1982

Filed:

Nov 6, 1980

Appl. No.:

6/204693

Inventors:

Paul DiMatteo - Huntington NY
Robert Segnini - Stony Brook NY
Paul Rademacher - Glen Head NY

Assignee:

Solid Photography, Inc. - Melville NY

International Classification:

B23Q 3502

US Classification:

29 26A

Abstract:

An arrangement for removing excess material from an object surface, to provide a desired finished surface. Holes are drilled into the object so that the bottoms of the holes lie on the desired finished surface. The holes have a shape so that the observed hole diameter at the prevailing surface of the object is dependent on the hole depth and thereby dependent on the amount of material remaining to be removed between the prevailing surface and the desired finished surface. The prevailing surface is continuously observed and measured, and the depths of material to be removed in a sequence of steps is calculated dependent on the measurements of the prevailing surface and the coordinates of the desired finished surface. As a result of the calculations, the depth of material removed during each step is controlled, so that upon carrying out a sequence of such steps, the surface exposed on the object after the last step has been carried out, coincides with the desired finished surface. The accuracy of the material removal equipment may be substantially less than the accuracy of the finished surface.

Assignee:

Nova Technologies, Inc. - Hauppauge NY

International Classification:

A61G 706

US Classification:

5 81R

Abstract:

A bed has a mattress with a plurality of inflatable air sacs, a low-pressure compressed air blower, a pressure control system, and pipes for carrying gas from the blower to the sacs. A transport sheet extends over the air sacs and is attached to rollers at the ends of the bed. By winding the transport sheet on one roller and unwinding it from another roller, a patient can be moved across the bed and partly onto a wheelchair with its back rest removed. A lift mechanism on the bed raises the person to a seated position on the wheelchair, and the back rest is replaced behind the person.

B08B 310

US Classification:

134 30

Abstract:

An arrangement mountable on the rim of a bidet receptacle or a toilet for providing bidet applications and hygienic cleansing in conjunction with the use of the toilet. Brackets are fastened to the rim of the toilet and carry a pivoted arm on which are mounted a water spray head and a dry air head. These heads are moved over selected areas of the opening of the receptacle or toilet. The arm may be rotated, tilted, and slid to cover the area of the receptacle opening. The arm may also be manipulated manually or by mechanical means in accordance with the cleansing requirements of the user.
