Abstract:
A musical method and apparatus for minimizing the amount of anesthetic required during surgery and for shortening the recovery time after surgery.
Abstract:
A compact flashlight is configured such that it can be coupled to a key ring, as well as various other devices, and includes a locking mechanism that inhibits accidental opening and detachment from the ring or other device. The compact flashlight is further configured to allow the flashlight to be pointed in numerous directions while resting on a surface, and further allows for ease of battery replacement. The compact flashlight additionally includes a plurality of switches that are easy to operate, and includes both a momentary switch and an on-off switch.
Abstract:
An electronic clock that produces both an analog and digital display and includes tracks that sequentially light to indicate passing seconds, minutes, and hours.
Abstract:
The lamp includes a base having a battery compartment, a selector switch, an aimable light and motion sensor assembly, and a removable suction cup. A gooseneck extends from the base and terminates in a lamp head containing one or more LEDs. The LEDs are electrically coupled to a circuit in the base which is coupled to one or more batteries in the battery compartment, the selector switch, and the sensor. The selector switch allows for three modes: off, always on, and auto-on-off. In the auto-on-off mode, the lamp lights when the motion sensor detects motion unless the light sensor detects that the ambient light is above a certain level at which the lamp is not needed.

Abstract:
A device for stopping a moving vehicle, a strip placed in front of the vehicle to be stopped, said strip having a plurality of spikes for entwining the tires, a cable attached to a spike which unwinds and entwines the axle of the wheel proximate to the tire for and stopping its rotation or otherwise impedes wheel or tire rotation as the cable anchors to the vehicle underside.
Abstract:
A passive illuminator that is configured to releasably engage the outer peripheral surface of a household component includes a main body having first and second ends, and inner and outer peripheral surfaces. The main body is configured such that the first and second ends are movable with respect to one another upon application of an external force to the main body. When the external force is not applied the first and second ends are disposed at least proximate one another, and the main body inner peripheral surface is dimensioned to releasably engage an outer peripheral surface of the household component.
Abstract:
A thin, deformable polymer sheet is configured to be placed between an opening in a container and the container lid, particularly when the lid is to be refastened to the container. The sheet creates a barrier between the container and the lid, and more particularly, between the lid and any residual contents of the container, such as paint, that may be on the lid engagement surfaces. The residual content, when it dries, will therefore not adhere the lid to the container and inhibit subsequent removal of the lid.
Abstract:
A filter assembly for mounting on a conventional or ceiling fan blade includes a fan blade mount, a filter mount, and an air filter. The fan blade mount has a blade mount slot formed therein that is dimensioned to slidably engage a ceiling fan blade. The filter mount is coupled to the fan blade mount and has at least a portion thereof that is disposed substantially perpendicular thereto. The air filter is coupled to the filter mount and extends a distance therefrom in a direction perpendicular to at least a portion of the fan blade mount slot.
