摘要:
An element retention and placement strip comprises a flexible band designed to fit around one or more objects, a fastener associated with the flexible band employing a female fastener area and a male fastener area for connecting the flexible band to an object. The male fastener area comprises a plurality of tensioners disposed on the surface of the male fastener area for securely locking the flexible band to an object. At least one or more clasps attached to the flexible band, such that the clasps may be fixed, rotatable or movable along the axis of the flexible band. The clasps may be of plurality of sizes and use plurality of locking mechanisms for holding the element.

A belt for training abdominal muscles comprises means (103) for determining a base girth of a user. Means (115, 117, 119) is also provided for determining changes in girth of the user as a result of contraction and relaxation of the user's abdominal muscles. Further means (125) provides feedback to the user as to the extent of contraction of the user's abdominal muscles, the feedback being displayed as a continuous, progressive indication of the degree of contraction of the user's abdominal muscles. A training method employs the belt and comprises the steps of: placing the belt around the waist of a user and determining a base girth of the user. The user's abdominal muscles are contracted and relaxed so as to provide feedback to the user as to the extent of contraction of the user's abdominal muscles, and a continuous, progressive indication of the degree of contraction of the user's abdominal muscles is noted.
摘要:
A device for handling a load hoisted between two locations offset both vertically and horizontally is described. In particular the device is useful for transferring an outboard motor between an operating location on a dinghy and a storage location on a larger boat. The device makes use of existing lifting devices such as sail halyards and winches and provides both guidance and stabilization of the motor during the transfer.

A method of making a magnetically encodable card which comprises forming a dispersion of ferromagnetic particles in an organic fluid medium, forming a composite by intimately combining the dispersion with a thermoplastic resin plasticized by the organic fluid medium and forming the composite into an encodable card.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for reading and/or recording information on a photographic element having a thin magnetic layer. The apparatus includes a magnetic head assembly having a read and/or write head having an outer engaging surface for contacting the magnetic layer. The outer engaging surface has at least one pole for reading or writing information on the magnetic layer and a protective layer and is made of a material having a Vickers hardness equal to or greater than 1000 kg/mm.sup.2. A spring is provided for applying a substantially perpendicular loading force between the photographic element and the magnetic read and/or write head. The substantially perpendicular loading being equal to or greater than about 10 gm/mm.sup.2.
