Multi-exercise rotary device

A multi-exercise rotary device, comprising: at least one elongate body-supported member, the body-supported member having a first end adapted to be supported by the body of the user, and a second end opposite the first end, at least one rotating member having a longitudinal axis that is at least semi-rigid, and which axis has a weight-biased distribution toward a distal end thereof; and a rotary mechanism for coupling the rotating member to a point on the body-supported member which is near the second end thereof. The rotary mechanism allows rotational movement of the rotating member about the longitudinal axis of the body-supported member. The rotary mechanism includes a device for constraining the angular movement between the weight-biased longitudinal axis of the rotating member and the longitudinal axis of the body-supported unit to be substantially only in a predetermined plane axially aligned with the body-supported member, and for constraining said plane from twisting with respect to the longitudinal axis of said body-supported member.

Apparatus for pedestrian railing with snap-in spacer and method of making

A sturdy aluminum pedestrian and bicyclist safety railing that reduces the amount of welding required during construction, comprising top and bottom rigid bars, each having a longitudinal, radially extending exterior passage and a plurality of aluminum pickets mounted within said bar top and bottom channels and held apart by a plurality of spacer plugs that interlock and snap snugly into each top and bottom bar channel and act as spacers to separate the pickets. The top and bottom bars may be welded together at each end of the railing to hold the entire unit together, retaining the plurality of rigid pickets that are substantially perpendicular (or inclined) to the top and bottom bars. The pickets are supported in the top and bottom bar channels without welding for increased strength and reduced cost of construction.

Clamping assembly for woodworking knife

A clamping assembly to hold a woodworking knife in place in a woodworking machine. The clamping assembly comprises a clamping component comprising a body and an actuator. The body has three discrete contact positions distributed thereon: 1) a fulcrum located generally at one end, 2) a knife abutting portion located generally at the other end, and 3) a bearing surface located elsewhere. The actuator is for applying a clamping force to the body along a clamping axis located intermediate of the knife abutting portion and the fulcrum. The fulcrum is a surface having a normal that is at an angle to the clamping axis. The bearing surface is a surface wherein a line normal to the bearing surface intersects the line normal to the fulcrum at a position outside of the clamping component at a location farther askew of the clamping axis than the fulcrum.

Device for purifying gases, such as air in particular, or liquids, such as water in particular

Device for purifying gases, such as air in particular, or liquids, such as water in particular, in which use is made of micro-organisms. The device comprises a chamber (1) containing at least one filter pattern (7) and having intakes and outlets (12, 13) for the medium that is to be purified. The filter pattern is obtained by making use of virtually two-dimensional geo-textile (8) made from sprayed plastic threads with a thickness of approximately 2 mm for retaining the micro-organisms, and a three-dimensional geo-textile (9) with a thickness of approximately 10 mm, allowing the medium that is to be treated to flow alongside the micro-organisms. The geotextile materials (8, 9) are placed on top of each other and jointly rolled up to form the filter pattern (7). The geo-textile material may for instance be made of HDPE or polypropylene.

A detachable boat anchor comprises of a first plate having a housing on the bottom central surface and a second plate having a housing on the top central surface. The two plates are connected by a central shank by means of a leaf spring with engagement pin. The shank has two open ends with radial holes formed therethrough proximate to the open ends. The housing has an open end and radial holes formed therethrough and is shaped to receive the shank in a mating relationship to provide a snug fit such that when the radial holes of the shank and the radial holes of the housing are aligned, the engagement pin protrudes from the radial holes to prevent disengagement.

Utility knife with pivoting head assembly

A utility knife is provided that has an elongated main body portion and a head assembly that is separate from the main body portion. The main body portion has a handle assembly. A main body fastening mechanism is provided at one distal end of the handle assembly, and a handle assembly fastening mechanism is provided at one end of the handle assembly. A threaded pin pivotally fastens the main body portion to the head assembly by connecting the main body fastening mechanism to the handle assembly fastening mechanism. Accordingly, the head assembly can pivot with respect to the main body portion and handle assembly, so that the utility knife can be configured to cut an object at different angles, which can be particularly useful for the knife to fit in a tight cutting space.
