IPC: B63H16/04

Abstract: A kayak paddle (10) with a generally straight shaft (16) that is preferably about 0.7 inches in diameter, the shaft is also conically tapered (24) at either end (18, 20). A left hand grip (12) and a right hand grip (14) are mounted on the shaft, and there is a blade (22) at either end of the shaft. The blades (22) each have a conically tapered socket (42) to accept the tapered ends of the shaft (16). A portion of the socket (42) remains vacant when the shaft (16) is fully inserted, the vacant portion of the socket serves to trap sufficient air to ensure that the paddle will float. The mechanical connections thus formed prevent the shaft (16) from rotating in the blade sockets (42) and also minimize the amount of stress placed on the adhesive used to fix the shaft in the sockets. The grips (12, 14) ensure that the user's hands can be consistently placed and oriented on the shaft; because of the small diameter of the shaft, the user's hands can easily encircle the grips, and the user is thereby afforded a high degree of control over the paddle (10). Further, the grips (12, 14) are contoured so as to more ergonomically position the user's hands at natural gripping angles, with respect to the horizontal axis of the shaft; the natural gripping angles serve to minimize the stress on the user's wrists, hands and arms.

Title: Elastic wheel
Inventor: TASHIRO KATSUMI
IPC: B60B9/12
Filed: 2001-03-13
Abstract: An elastic wheel comprising a disk (1) secured to an axle hub, and a rim (12) supporting a tire, wherein an elastic member (10) is interposed between the inner peripheral surface of the rim (12) and the outer peripheral surface of the disk (1). An attachable/detachable construction is employed between the outer peripheral surface (2) of the disk (1) and a wheel radial disk (3) or between the inner peripheral surface of the rim (12) and the elastic member (10) or in both cases. This ensures the permanence of riding comfort performance specific to an elastic wheel, vibration proof performance, and sound proof performance, and makes it possible to optimize such performances according to use even during use. Further, the mounting of a rim set and a core is facilitated and when rubber is used for the elastic member, rim-integrated vulcanization becomes unnecessary, thus making size reduction of the vulcanizing device possible.
