Abstract: A method and apparatus for charging a battery with a finger actuated low mass spinner electromagnetically converts the mechanical spinning energy to the desired battery charging voltage. The charger may be a self-contained portable battery charger unit for use with any of multiple devices containing respective batteries, or it may be a permanent part of such a device. The spinner may be a modified fidget spinner to which a shaft or axle is fixedly attached to rotate about that axis with the spinner and has one or more permanent magnets secured for rotation therewith. Alternatively the spinner may be more like the fidget spinner, without an axle rotating therewith, and having magnets on its rotating arms. In either case, the magnetic fields of the rotating magnets induce voltage in one or more induction coils to generate a battery charging voltage.

Abstract: A manifold gasket includes a carrier frame with a plurality of media-conveying openings corresponding to openings communicating between two parts to be clamped, such as an intake manifold and a cylinder head. Elastomeric sealing material is molded to the carrier frame about the openings to seal the openings when clamped. A compression limiting device is disposed on the carrier frame and is isolated from direct contact with the carrier frame by intervening elastomeric bonding material to limit compression of said elastomeric sealing material when the gasket is clamped between the head and block. The elastomeric bonding material renders the compression limiting device free-floating relative to the carrier frame.
