Appl. No.:

10/931691

Jeffrey Alan Bowman - Georgetown TX, US

International Classification:

A63G 9/12

US Classification:

472118, 472119, 2971831

Abstract:

An improved baby carrier device having an integral swinging mechanism which is capable of providing a pendulum-like rocking action thereto is herein disclosed. In addition to other known uses such as a containment mechanism for infants or as a receptacle for mounting within a baby carriage, or car seat, the present invention enhances the utility of a conventional baby carrier system via the incorporation of a integral baby swing, thereby abating the need for other extraneous mechanisms or other related swing drive devices. The carrier device has a pair of leg assemblies which are incorporated into the handle assembly thereof and are selectively adjustable by a user from an extended position wherein said carrier shell is suspended above a support surface in a stable manner, to a retracted position wherein the leg assemblies are confined within the housing of the handle assembly. Self-propelled actuation means are also described which drivingly couples the rotational force of a motor drive means to the reciprocal pendulum-like action of the swing assembly.

Abstract:

A power outage socket device that may be installed on a variety of lamps or light fixtures. The bottom of the device has a male connector adapted to be inserted into the light socket on the lamp or light fixture, in place of the light bulb. A female socket adapted to receive the light bulb is located on the top of the device. The male connector may be recessed. When power is interrupted, emergency power is provided to one or more emergency light sources on the device to provide light. Emergency power is provided by one or more batteries, which may be rechargeable. The device also may include means for connecting a lamp harp, or for allowing a lamp harp to pass through the device. A photoelectric light sensor may be used to detect ambient light and control whether emergency light is provided when normal power is interrupted.

International Classification:

B01D 46/46

US Classification:

95 23, 96422

Abstract:

An air filter monitor () and method of utilizing such to monitor an air filter is disclosed wherein the monitor has a housing (), an air flow detector () with accompanying electrical circuit (), and a mounting strap () which is configured to be secured to a conventional air vent grill of a heating, ventilation and air conditioning system. The air flow detector includes a freely rotating impeller and a sensor () which senses the rotational speed of the impeller (). The electrical circuit also includes a central processing unit (CPU) (), a battery source (), a calibrating switch (), and a light indicator (). The CPU includes memory for retaining an initial airflow velocity, and means for comparing the current airflow velocity with the initial airflow velocity. The CPU compares the current airflow velocity to the initial airflow velocity and actuates the light should a threshold drop in airflow velocity be reached.

International Classification:

G08B 1/00

US Classification:

3403094

Abstract:

A wireless timer system () is shown including a master unit () and multiple remote modules (). The master unit communicates with the slave units through a RF signal. The master unit includes a control circuit for controlling the activation of the remote modules during at least one designated activation time period having a commencement time and a termination time. The designated activation time period including a plurality of on/off cycles. The control circuit changes the selection of which remote module to activate first upon each occurrence of reaching the designated activation time period. The control circuit may also include a variable time range associated with the activation time period. The control circuit may change the commencement time each day to a time within the variable time range from the commencement time.

Abstract:

A surgical cutting instrument comprises an outer tubular member and an inner tubular member. The outer tubular member includes a proximal section, an intermediate section, a distal section, and a side wall. The side wall defines a central lumen extending from the proximal section to the distal section. The side wall also includes means for conducting fluid within a sidewall of the outer tubular member from the proximal section to the distal section and includes a distal opening positioned to direct fluid at the bur and a treatment site. The inner tubular member is rotatably received within the central lumen. A distal end of the inner tubular member forms a bur extending distally beyond, and exposed relative to, the distal section of the outer tubular member.
