Patent CA-2446103-A1 (CA)
Inventor: STRAVITZ DAVID M
IPC: B65F1/06
Filed: 2002-05-02
Abstract: Waste disposal device including a container (12) with a waste storage chamber (12a) and a cartridge (24) therein with contains a length of flexible tubing (34) for encapsulating waste packages (74). A retention mechanism (72) holds the waste package. A rotation mechanism causes relative rotation between the cartridge and the retention mechanism to form a twist above the waste package, thereby encapsulating the waste package in the tubing. Encapsulation of the waste package prevents the release of odors and provides a convenient and sanitary disposal of the waste. A series of encapsulated waste packages is created in the container, each package contained within a portion of tubing and sealed at each end by the twisting process. Once encapsulated, the waste package is urged further into the container upon subsequent insertion of another waste package or by a compacting mechanism (248) which rolls the encapsulated waste packages into a compacted roll.

Abstract: A paintball marker is provided including a body, a bolt and an actuator. The body defines a breech having a paintball inlet. The bolt is slideable within the breech between an open position wherein the bolt permits the entry of a paintball through the paintball inlet into the breech, and a closed position wherein the bolt prevents the entry of a paintball through the paintball inlet into the breech. The actuator is operatively connected to the bolt. The actuator is adapted to apply an opening force to move the bolt towards the open position and a closing force to move the bolt towards the closed position. The closing force is different from the opening force. The closing force may be selected to be low enough to inhibit rupturing of paintballs in the event that a paintball becomes confined by the bolt.

Abstract: Disclosed is a rocker arm shaft for an automobile engine, which is effectively capable of offsetting the length change of the rocker arm shaft, which caused by heat. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a rocker arm shaft can be divided into at least two shafts. An elastic member, such as a coil spring, is positioned between the shafts. When the length change of the shafts is changed by heat, the elastic member offsets the changed length of the shafts. The rocker arm shaft is divided into a hollow first shaft and a hollow second shaft. A one end of the second shaft of the rocker arm shaft forms a receiving groove for inserting the elastic member. With this structure, the rocker arm shaft for an automobile engine does not bend nor get twisted by offsetting the changed length of the shafts by means of the elastic member.
