摘要： The disclosed safety light (15) is designed to provide automatic operation for safety lights placed on rotating assemblies such as wheels, flying disks, and etc. Safety light (15) comprises a battery (20), acceleration/motion sensor (22), photo sensor (24), and illumination device (26) placed substantially in series with one other. Battery(20) provides electromotive power to operate all circuitry. The acceleration/motion sensor(22) is designed to conduct current when a specific acceleration or motion is detected. The photo sensor (24) conducts current when photo detector(25) detects a sufficiently low level of light. When both acceleration sensor(22) and photo sensor(24) are conducting, current will flow and illuminate illumination device(26). Alternatively, a time delay may be added to the acceleration/motion sensor(22) to delay shut-off of current to the illumination device(26), and a time delay may be added to the photo sensor(24) to delay turn-on of current to illumination device(26) when light level is suddenly reduced.

摘要： A linearly self-actuated hose for use in transporting fluids (liquids, gases, solid particles, and combinations of these three). Hose (30) has a biasing spring (36) that extends along its full length, and can comprise single or multiple springs and/or multiple diameter spring coils. Spring (36) is covered with hose cover material (32) on the outside and hose cover material (34) on the inside to form a sealed hose and are bowed inward or outward radially between the individual spring coils depending on the intended use of hose (30) to give the cover materials room to move out of the way when the hose retracts and the coils of spring (36) are forced close together. The Linearly Retractable Hose is operated by changing internal pressure within the hose relative to the ambient pressure on the exterior of the hose. Control of fluid pressure within hose (30) is what allows the hose to operate as an automatically extendable and retractable hose. The biasing of spring (36) depends on the type of use for the hose. For hose (30b), which will be used as a vacuum hose then the biasing spring (30b) must exert an extending force on the cover material (opposite that for a pressure hose). If the hose is to be used as a pressure hose (garden hose, etc.), spring (36) will need to have a bias that exerts a retracting force on cover materials (32) and (34).

摘要： A linearly self-actuated hose for use in transporting fluids (liquids, gases, solid particles, and combinations of these three). Hoses (30) and (30b) have a biasing spring (36) extends along the full length, and can comprise single or multiple springs and/or multiple diameter spring coils. Spring (36) is covered with hose cover material (32) on the outside and hose cover material (34) on the inside to form a sealed hose and are bowed inward or outward radially between the individual spring coils depending on the intended use of hose (30) or (30b), respectfully to give the cover materials room to move out of the way when the hose retracts and the coils of spring (36) are forced close together. Hose (30b) is designed with a source end (26) and a output end (68). A pressure control mechanism is used on output end (68) to control the extending and retracting of hose (30b). The Linearly Retractable Hose is operated by changing internal pressure within the hose relative to the ambient pressure on the exterior of the hose. Control of fluid pressure within hose (30b) is what allows the hose to operate as an automatically extendable and retractable hose. The biasing of spring (36) depends on the type of use for the hose. For hose (30b) which will be used as a vacuum hose then the biasing spring (30b) must exert an extending force on the cover material (opposite that for a pressure hose). If the hose is to be used as pressure hose (30) (garden hose, etc.), spring (36) will need to have a bias that exerts a retracting force on cover materials (32) and (34).

摘要： A device for gripping, holding, and releasing objects of varying sizes and shapes, which comprises an elongated torus (30) enclosing a fluid material (31), an external control rod (40), and an internal control rod (38). Torus (30) may be made of a flexible membrane and able to seal in fluid material (31). Fluid material (31) can be a gas, liquid, solid particles, semisolid particles, or mixtures of these. Central channel (34) of torus (30) is collapsed due to pressure of fluid material (31) within torus (30). Both control rods are securely attached to torus (30), with rod (38) attached to the interior portion of the torus along collapsed central channel (34), and rod (40) attached to the exterior portion of the torus on outer surface (32). Gripping action is achieved by differential linear motion of control rods (38) and (40) along the longitudinal (elongated) axis of torus (30). This causes front portion (36) of the torus to slide radially inward or outward to grip objects. Further movement of the control rods can cause the object to be pulled completely inside the collapsed channel for secure gripping by completely surrounding the object. The soft flexible nature of torus (30) allows grasping even the most delicate objects without damaging them. Even over-ripe strawberries can be rapidly grasped without bruising.

摘要翻译： 一种用于夹持，保持和释放不同尺寸和形状的物体的装置，其包括包围流体材料（31）的细长环形环（30），外部控制杆（40）和内部控制杆（38）。 圆环（30）可以由柔性膜制成并能够密封流体材料（31）。 流体材料（31）可以是气体，液体，固体颗粒，半固体颗粒或它们的混合物。 由于圆环（30）内的流体材料（31）的压力，圆环（30）的中心通道（34）被折叠。 两个控制杆牢固地连接到环面（30），杆（38）沿着塌陷的中心通道（34）连接到环面的内部，并且杆（40）附接到外表面上的环面的外部部分 32）。 夹持动作通过控制棒（38）和（40）沿着圆环（30）的纵向（细长）轴的微分线性运动来实现。 这使得环面的前部（36）径向向内或向外滑动以夹持物体。 控制杆的进一步运动可以使物体在折叠通道内被完全拉出，以通过完全围绕物体来进行紧固夹紧。 圆环（30）的柔软柔软性使得即使是最脆弱的物体也能抓住，而不会损坏它们。 即使过度成熟的草莓也可以快速掌握，没有瘀伤。

摘要： The disclosed swivel adaptor (20) is assembled into two sections: tool member (40), and adaptor member (60). These two sections are pivotally attached, and can pivot with respect to each other around pivot axis (54). Pivot axis (54) is angled off-axis with respect to the longitudinal axises of the adaptor sections to allow various angled positions for adaptor (20). The angle between the tool port end (42) and adaptor port end (64) being adjustable between an in-line position where members (40) and (60) form a relatively straight adaptor, and a plurality of angled positions where the longitudinal axises of ports (42) and (64) are not parallel. Adaptor (20) has an pivotal air passageway connecting end (45) to end (65). In the straight position, tabs (72) snap into place to provide a holding force to keep the two sections from pivoting during use. By applying a sufficient twisting force on the two sections, tab (72) slips loose and the two sections can rotate about axis (54). Tool member (40) is designed to fit into standard vacuum cleaner nozzles. Adaptor member (60) is designed to fit onto both vacuum wand hoses and vacuum wand ports.

摘要： A collapsible dual screwdriver assembly pliers or drive-pliers for short, comprises a pliers and two screwdriver assemblies, where the screwdriver assemblies are individually removably attachable in a stowed position and an extended position. In the stowed position each screwdriver assembly can provide compact storage of the tool as well as function as a portion of a handle for the other screwdriver assembly. In the extended position each screwdriver assembly can be used as an extended handle for the pliers, as well as, function as a multi-bit screwdriver individually.
