    摘要: A dual muscle roller apparatus is disclosed that includes a crossbeam with first and second ends. A first upright is in rotational connection to the crossbeam first end and a first handle connected at an end of first upright, and a second upright is in rotational connection to the second crossbeam end with a second handle connected at an end of the second upright. A first axle extends away from the first upright, and a first roller is rotationally connected to the axle such that the first roller rotates about the axle. Likewise a second axle extends away from the second upright, and a second roller is rotationally connected to the second axle such that the second roller rotates about the second axle. The first axle and the second axle are separated by a distance that can be adjusted by the placement of the first or second handle.

    摘要: A system for monitoring equipment in a non-invasive fashion may include at least one sense device comprising an electronics module that includes a image sensor, at least one controller coupled to receive image data from the image sensor and generate a reading value, a display that displays the reading value from the at least one controller. In addition, a mounting adapter, separate from and attachable to the electronics module, may be included that has a fitting portion adaptable to be affixed to the monitored equipment and an image opening that enables an image of the monitored equipment to be acquired. In other embodiments, a sense device may provide a signal, such as a DC signal from piece of equipment. A configuration tool may configure parameters by which a reading value is generated from such a DC signal. In one arrangement, a configuration tool may configure sense devices via a wireless connection, and display any images of the monitored equipment captured by the sense device. This may enable intuitive configuration of sense devices and/or quick confirmation of sense device readings.
