Filed:

Oct 1, 2004

Appl. No.:

10/956577

Inventors:

Ronald Eugene Hunt - Georgetown TX, US
Verlon Eugene Whitehead - Austin TX, US

Assignee:

CD3 Storage Systems, Inc. - Austin TX

International Classification:

A63H003/00

US Classification:

446295, 446330, 446353

Abstract:

A toy animal formed of molded plastic provides simulated respiration. An aperture in the upper section of the molded plastic animal is covered with a flexible simulated animal pelt. A battery-powered electric motor within the toy animal provides a rotating output which is coupled to the underside of the flexible simulated animal pelt within the aperture utilizing a flexible shaft. This manner rotation of the motor output alternately extends and depresses the flexible simulated animal pelt, thereby simulating respiration.

US Classification:

177 2513, 177 2516, 177 2519, 128921

Abstract:

A method of encouraging weight loss via a talking electronic scale. The talking electronic scale determines the weight of a particular person in response to a specific user input. The talking electronic scale utilizes a data storage unit to store and conceal an initial weight for the particular person. The talking electronic scale compares a subsequent weight of the particular person to the concealed initial weight in response to a specific user input and utilizes a speech synthesis unit to announce a difference between the concealed initial weight and the subsequent weight for the particular person without ever displaying or announcing the numerical value of the initial weight.
