Method And System For Concentrated Primary Support For A User In Support Assistive Devices

US Patent:
6343802, Feb 5, 2002
Filed:
Jun 12, 1998
Appl. No.:
09/091388
Inventors:
Jonathan P. Workman - Loveland CO
Kenneth W. House - Fort Collins CO
Donald H. Eason - Fort Collins CO
Assignee:
Ultimate Support Systems, Inc. - Fort Collins CO
International Classification:
B62M 100
US Classification:
280 87041, 280 8705, 135 67, 482 68
Abstract:
A support assistive device for a user having a frame assembly, a vertical pelvis support element connected to the frame assembly which may primarily support the user in the ischial tuberosity region, and a horizontal pelvis support element which may primarily support the anterior superior iliac spine region of a pelvis. It may provide such support with minimal or no hand or arm support. By supporting on the anterior superior iliac spine on either side, a moment can be created to assist in turning even without the use of hands by simply turning the direction of the pelvis. The created moment of the present invention is more natural to the user in turning the pelvis and as a result the device. Additionally, a fluidic braking assembly for any rotatable elements is provided, which can be advantaged to assist a user in supplying an increase of force to actuate the braking action. The braking system may be actuated from a single station or multiple stations and may provide braking in any direction the wheels are turned, that is, omni-directionally.

Omni- Directional Weight-Bearing Support Assistive Device

US Patent:
2002012, Sep 5, 2002
Filed:
Feb 5, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/072732
Inventors:
Jonathan Workman - Loveland CO, US
Kenneth House - Fort Collins CO, US
Donald Eason - Fort Collins CO, US
Assignee:
Ultimate Support Systems, Inc. - Fort Collins CO
International Classification:
B62M001/00
US Classification:
280/087021
Abstract:
The present invention may provide a support assistive device for a user having a frame assembly (), a vertical pelvis support element () connected to the frame assembly which may primarily support the ischial tuberosities (), and a horizontal pelvis support element () which may primarily support the anterior superior iliac spines () of a pelvis (). It may provide such support with minimal or no hand or arm support. By supporting on the anterior superior iliac spine () on either side, a moment can be created to assist in turning even without the use of hands by simply turning the direction of the pelvis (). The created moment of the present invention is more natural to the user in turning the pelvis and as a result the device. The present invention may also provide a fluidic braking assembly () for any rotatable elements (), which can be advantaged to assist a user in supplying an increase of force to actuate the braking action. The braking system may be actuated from a single station or multiple stations and may provide braking in any direction the wheels are turned, that is, omni-directionally. It may also include a elevation assembly () that can assist lowering of an upper frame assembly () to a corresponding elevation with a lower frame assembly () to assist in packaging and in transportation. It may also provide a rotatable swivel lock system () for the rotatable elements () that may be restrained in various orientations, and may be controlled through a single station.

High-Flow Electro-Hydraulic Actuator

US Patent:
2013006, Mar 14, 2013
Filed:
Aug 29, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/597450
Inventors:
Kevin E. Greeb - Fort Collins CO, US
Philip A. LaFleur - Loveland CO, US
Jonathan P. Workman - Loveland CO, US
John J. Been - Fort Collins CO, US
Assignee:
WOODWARD, INC. - Fort Collins CO
International Classification:
F16K 31/02
US Classification:
25112901
Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention provide a high-reliability, cost-effective electro-hydraulic servo-valve assembly that is not susceptible to failure caused by contaminated fluid. In particular embodiments, the electro-hydraulic servo-valve assembly includes a rotary valve that may be actuated by either a direct-coupled Limited Angle Torque (LAT) motor, a geared, brushless DC motor, or some other rotary electric actuating element with an integrated driver circuit. In particular embodiments, the rotary valve element made up of an outer sleeve element and an inner spool element, with matching ports and slots, respectively.

Support Apparatus And Methods For One Or More Items

US Patent:
2006001, Jan 26, 2006
Filed:
Jul 21, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/896458
Inventors:
Jonathan Workman - Loveland CO, US
Assignee:
Ultimate Support Systems, Inc. - Fort Collins CO
International Classification:
G10G 5/00
US Classification:
248443000
Abstract:
Inventive musical instrument support apparatus and methods relative to independently inventive aspects of support technology. One aspect of the inventive technology may be directed to a collapsible musical instrument stand such as a guitar stand that includes a support element that exhibits an enhanced low profile in a retracted mode. Another aspect of the invention may focus on provision of the capability of simultaneous deployment and retraction of an assembly of multiple musical instrument supports upon reconfiguration of only one of the supports. Inventive musical instrument support stands may include either or both of the individually inventive aspects.
