摘要:
An adjustable fastening mechanism generally including an adjustable clasp (10) and a cord (28). The adjustable clasp (10) has an inlet end (12), a fastener end (16), and a center core therebetween. In the preferred embodiment, the adjustable clasp (10) has an inlet (14) and a radial port (20) which are connected by a conduit. The inlet end (12) of the adjustable clasp (10) is narrower than the fastener end (16) of the adjustable clasp (10). A helical groove (24) is provided on the exterior (22) of the adjustable clasp (10) and extends from the radial port to an exterior bore (26) near the fastener end (16) of the adjustable clasp (10). The exterior bore (26) extends through the solid center core of the adjustable clasp (10) and is substantially perpendicular to the center axis of the adjustable clasp (10) and helical groove (24).

In one embodiment, a transmission includes: a wobbler having an outer periphery tiltable with respect to a wobble axis of rotation; a set of freewheeling gears disposed in a fixed relationship with respect to one another, each gear having a gear axis of rotation about which the gear may rotate different from the gear axis of rotation of each of the other gears; one or both of the wobbler and the set of gears rotatable with respect to one another about the wobble axis of rotation; and each gear operatively connected to the wobbler simultaneously with the other gears at a place on the periphery of the wobbler different from the place at which each of the other gears is operatively connected to the wobbler such that each gear rotates on its axis of rotation as the wobbler wobbles or as the wobbler induces a wobble in another part.
