  • Patent number: 6516451
    Abstract: A computer process used to create a report to check a proposed project to insure conformity with existing standards. The software used utilizes a diagrammatic design program which allows creation of a model while checking compliance with the standard used in the proposed project. In the preferred embodiment example given, the method would first create a new project or open an existing project. Thereafter, the user would select a list of modules from rules algorithms for standards relating to the created or opened existing project. Next, the project would be designed by adding component parts and modifying their properties while maintaining compliance with the selected standards. Finally, a report, whether checklists, graphical layouts with dimensions or worksheets that enable the user to create a dimensioned graphical layout, would be created to demonstrate compliance with the selected standard.

  • Patent number: 6482138
    Abstract: An exercise device having a hollow housing that can be fixed to a horizontally disposed support surface by a first external clamp. Extending from the housing is a handle with a first shaft that extends into the housing. Within the housing on the first shaft is a disk fixed to the shaft that rotates with the shaft. As a user rotates the handle its shaft and disk rotate in unison. A resistive force control handle also extends from the housing has its own second shaft extending within the housing. This second shaft mounts a second member consisting of two disk engaging rollers whose resistance to rotation can be adjusted. As the rollers resistance to rotation is increased against the engage disk's surface more force is needed to move the external handle on the disk's shaft. One roller engages the top of the disk while another engages the bottom of the disk. Two pairs of arms are joined at one end to a movable shaft while the other end has a roller at each one of the pairs of arms.
