Title: Expandable connector assembly, tool attachment and workpiece jig
Inventor: WALKER RICHARD ALAN
IPC: F16B12/20
Filed: 2006-07-06
Abstract: A kit comprises an expandable connector assembly and a router jig clamp assembly (41) to hold a workpiece comprises a router guide plate (42) having a router tool opening (43), a workpiece guide plate (44) having (45) guides (45 and 46) so that opposite mitres may be cut using the guides (45 and 46). The clamp (41) may be mounted on a bench adjacent a bench router so that upon alignment of a workpiece in position adjacent to opening (43) the press may be used to form the slot in the workpiece. The assembly has a clamp (47) comprising a handle (48), cams (49 and 50), a clamp bar (51) and spring mountings (52) at opposite ends. This enables a workpiece to be clamped when the handle (48) is pulled down to a position running generally parallel to the guide (44). Thus a workpiece is slid along one of the (45) guides into alignment with the slot (43) and then the clamp is applied to hold that piece in position for the slot cutting process. The guide plate (44) is travelling in a guide set at (90) to the plate (42) and consequently the clamp handle (52) for the guide is offset relative to the central guide way for the plate (44).

Inventor: ROBICHAUD GARY J
IPC: E04D15/00
Filed: 2008-01-03
Abstract: In a system for the movement of roofing materials from the ground to the roof's surface, it is common that a gas powered lifting carriage system be used to lift such things as roofing shingles to the roofs edge. Although efficient, it is limited to delivering shingles to the roofs edge only.  Where-by an unsafe practice of descending to the roofs edge to retrieve the shingles and carry them up to the work area is performed by the roofer in an unsafe manner. In this invention the assembly of roof hooks, four foot ladder / rail transport sections, pulley and harness system, D.C. drive gear motor, transport cable and carriage assembly work together to further the advancement of shingles to the roof top.   Thus providing a safer, less strenuous movement of shingles to a work area.

Title: Respiratory humidification system
Inventor: GRADON LEWIS GEORGE
IPC: G01F15/14
Filed: 1998-06-16
Abstract: A flow probe for use in a humidification system is disclosed. The flow probe is adapted to be positioned in a humidified gases flow (for example oxygen or anaesthetic gases) such as that which is provided to a patient in a hospital environment.  The flow probe is designed to provide both temperature and flow rate sensing of the gases flow by incorporating two sensors (preferably thermistors) and the shape and alignment of the probe enables accurate readings by reducing the occurrence of condensation on the sensors. A number of possible applications are disclosed wherein the flow sensor is included in humidification control systems which provide a patient with a desired humidity level or simplify the amount of user input required or wherein the flow sensor provides a controller with flow information which may then be used to determine certain, possibly dangerous, conditions (such as incorrect flow sensor placement, breathing circuit disconnected, no water in the humidification chamber or humidity out of required limits).

Title: Gas driven solids discharge and pumping piston for a centrifugal separator
Inventor: CARR ROBERT B
IPC: B04B11/05
Filed: 2006-08-25
Abstract: A centrifugal separator includes a cylindrical bowl having a conical lower end with an opening through which feed liquid is injected during a feed mode of operation. During the feed mode, solids separate from the feed liquid and accumulate along the inner surface of the bowl as the bowl rotates at high speed. After accumulation of the solids, the rotation of the bowl is stopped and residual liquid is drained by gravity from the bowl. In a solids discharge mode of operation, a piston of a piston assembly is urged downward along a vertical axis in response to fluid such as compressed gas or hydraulic liquid.  The downward movement of the piston forces accumulated solids from the bowl via the opening in the conical lower end thereof . The solids pass from the bowl and into a passage leading to an outlet port, where the solids exit the separator.

Abstract: My idea is to install brake lights in the front of a vehicle. The front brake lights function exactly the same way as the brake lights in the rear of a vehicle. The light is positioned in the front of a vehicle near the headlights and indicators, or on the dashboard or behind the rear-view and side mirrors. The benefit of having head brake-lights is so that other vehicles and pedestrians will see what your intentions of stopping are so they can make better decisions when driving or walking in the path of a vehicle.

Title: Adjustable-backset latch system for locksets, and method
Inventor: WINARDI MICHAEL
IPC: E05B63/06
Filed: 2000-08-11
Abstract: An adjustable-backset latch system for a lockset includes three main subsystems: a bolt retraction system, a backset-adjustment system and a deadlatching system. By virtue of the simplicity of the design of the backset-adjustment subsystem, the user can change the backset from 23/8" to 23/4", and vice-versa with one hand. A pin is simply moved through a "U"-shaped slot formed in a housing and housing and bolt actuation components are extended simultaneously by the desired backset increment. The bolt retraction system of the present invention uses a cam in which the distance from a point about which the cam rotates and the end of the cam, and the distance to a smaller cam pin, are selected to multiply the relatively small angular distance transversed during a half-round rotation of the knob or handle into the desired retraction distance of a main bolt. The deadlatching system uses two springs, one of which not only biases an auxiliary bolt to its extended position, but also biases a deadlocking dog so as to pivot into a blocking position preventing the main bolt from being retracted completely, in the event an intruder attempts to move the bolt.

IPC: B62B5/02
Filed: 1995-02-03
Abstract: There is provided, in a preferred embodiment, a transportation vehicle for transporting an individual over ground having a surface that may be irregular. This embodiment has a support for supporting the subject. A. ground-contacting module, movably attached to the support, serves to suspend the subject in the support over the surface. The orientation of the ground-contacting module defines fore-aft and lateral planes intersecting one another at a vertical. The support and the ground-contacting module are components of an assembly. A motorized drive, mounted to the assembly and coupled to the ground-contacting module, causes locomotion of the assembly and the subject therewith over the surface. Finally, the embodiment has a control loop, in which the motorized drive is included, for dynamically enhancing stability in the fore-aft plane by operation of the motorized drive in connection with the ground-contacting module. Included in the control loop is a directional control, letting the vehicle move, lean and turn in response to an indication of the subject, e.g. that of leaning the vehicle. The ground contacting module may be realized as a pair of ground-contacting members, laterally disposed with respect to one another. The ground-contacting members may be wheels, a duster of wheels, or includes rotatably mounted arcuate element pairs.
