Abstract:
A point of application workstation (10) is disclosed and generally includes a base unit (12), a power unit (24), a support unit (26), a work surface and storage unit (56), a monitor assembly and a control unit (27). Extending upward from the base unit is the support unit which carries the work surface and storage unit, control unit and monitor assembly (28). The workstation may be stationary or mobile. The power unit is housed in the base unit. The work surface and storage unit may be configured with a variety of storage solutions for any of a number of work environments and tasks. The work surface and storage unit may house a computer that is integrated into the workstation. The control unit provides a measure of security for the workstation by allowing access to the workstation and control over its features only by authorized users.
Abstract:
A utility cart includes a sensor or plurality of sensors to determine the state of a cart and secure cart contents. A sensor may be used to determine whether the contents of the cart have been accessed. When the sensor determines that the cart has been accessed, an alarm sequence that sounds an alarm or activates a visual indicator will be initiated. The alarm sequence may be terminated by a kill switch or by using an input device to deactivate the alarm. After the cart is used, the cart is re-stocked and the alarm controller is re-armed to return the cart's alarm system to an access sensing state.
Abstract:
A modular insulation panel provides insulation to a cabinet having lateral side walls, a back wall and a top wall. A main panel assembly insulates a lateral side wall, wherein the main panel assembly includes a framed double wall structure with a space therebetween for providing insulation to the lateral side wall. An auxiliary panel assembly insulates the back wall, wherein the auxiliary panel assembly includes a framed double wall structure with a space therebetween for providing insulation to the back wall. A hinge hingedly attaches the frame of the main panel assembly to the frame of the auxiliary panel assembly

Abstract:
A medication cart also holding at least one drawer or tray and at least one bin supported on the tray containing an array of drawers an bins, and a multi-level cassette assembly An internal locking mechanism secures the cassette assembly when it is positioned in the medication cart, and an external locking mechanism secures the cassette assembly outside of the medication cart In addition, the cassette assembly includes a mechanism that selectably provides access to an entire tray and all bins carried in it at one time or that provides access to single bins carried on the tray one at a time.
Abstract:
[0094] A medication cart also holding at least one drawer or tray and at least one bin supported on the tray containing an array of drawers and bins, and a multilevel cassette assembly. An internal locking mechanism secures the cassette assembly when it is positioned in the medication cart, and an external locking mechanism secures the cassette assembly outside of the medication cart. In addition, the cassette assembly includes a mechanism that selectably provides access to an entire tray and all bins carried in it at one time or that provides access to single bins carried on the tray one at a time. This mechanism, more particularly, (a) permits a tray to be nearly fully withdrawn from the cassette assembly thereby exposing a major portion of all carried bins to access all of their contents, and (b) permits the tray to be only partially withdrawn from the cassette assembly so that only a minor portion is exposed but such that each bin can independently be removed from the tray one at a time to access its contents.
Abstract:
A shelf support system includes a sleeve or wedge member and a collar adapted to be secured to a generally cylindrical support post. The sleeve has an inner surface that is configured to embrace the support post and an outer surface formed with a first axially outwardly Inclined wedge portion and at least one second axially outwardly inclined wedge portion that, when viewed in such radial cross-section, extends at an angle to the first portion. Additionally, the collar is adapted to be secured to a member to be supported and to embrace the sleeve. The collar has a first wedge surface formed to mate with the first portion of the outer surface of the sleeve and at least one second wedge surface formed to mate with the second portion of the outer surface of the sleeve.
Abstract:
A shelf support system includes a sleeve or wedge member and a collar adapted to be secured to a generally cylindrical support post, that is one that is circular when viewed in radial cross-section. The sleeve has an inner surface that is configured to embrace the support post and an outer surface formed with a first axially outwardly inclined wedge portion and at least one second axially outwardly inclined wedge portion that, when viewed in such radial cross-section, extends at an angle to the first portion. Additionally, the collar is adapted to be secured to a member to be supported and to embrace the sleeve. The collar has a first wedge surface formed to mate with the first portion of the outer surface of the sleeve and at least one second wedge surface formed to mate with the second portion of the outer surface of the sleeve. Thus, when the sleeve embraces the post and the collar embraces the sleeve, axial loading of the collar in one direction causes the first wedge surface to mate with the first portion of the outer surface of the sleeve and the second wedge surface to mate with the second portion of the outer surface of the sleeve, thereby urging the sleeve toward the post in at least two generally radial directions.
