APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR TEMPORARILY SUSPENDING CONDUCTORS

A set of components for assembling a temporary wire suspender includes in the set a yoke plate, a plurality of J-hook assemblies, a plurality of linkage members, and a plurality of removable couplers configurable to handle an expandable number of energized or de-energized conductors or sub-conductors. Positive control of the suspended and/or supported energized or de-energized conductors or sub-conductors is achieved by using releasable latches on the J-hook assemblies.

Systems and methods for privacy-aware motion tracking with notification feedback
11727780 · 2023-08-15 · ·

Systems and methods to perform privacy-aware computer-vision-based human activity monitoring with real-time haptic feedback. The system and method described in this disclosure employing a registration process for consenting human subjects before their activities are monitored. The registration process involves the corroboration of human motion captured in different modalities, i.e., computer-vision-based via the programmable computer-vision-based motion sensor and accelerometer-based via the wearable device. The tracked human activities are assessed in real-time and upon detection of activities that violated predefined rules, haptic feedback is delivered in real-time to the tracked human subject via the wearable device worn by the caregiver.

Hook

S-shaped hooks are disclosed that include an upper portion, a central inclined portion, and a lower portion. The central inclined portion is disposed between and joins the upper portion and the lower portion. The upper portion may include a generally horizontal section having a generally horizontal lower support surface. The generally horizontal lower support surface may include a recessed arcuate surface that may be generally centered on the generally horizontal lower support surface. The upper portion may include a retaining section extending downwardly from a distal end of the generally horizontal section. The lower portion may define a hook section. The lower portion may include one or any number of hooks for holding various items. The generally horizontal lower support surface may rest on a flat support surface, such as a section of angle iron, square tubing or flat bar. The recessed arcuate surface may rest on a circular surface.
