Abstract: A trailer hitch mounted recycling, transporting, and even a waste container transporting apparatus includes a tubing connector, that secures with the trailer hitch of a vehicle, and having a support plate, that mounts a lifting tube permanently thereon. A pivot rod pivotally secures to the upper end of the lifting tube, and the pivot rod connects with a lifting lever, which when pivoted from a vertical to a horizontal position, allows for movement of a container either onto or off of the ground, in preparation for its transport, or removal from this apparatus. A lifting hook slidably engages with the lifting tube, and connects with a lifting bracket at its upper end, which connects with a short lever, that provides a sliding movement to the lifting hook either upwardly with respect to the lifting tube, or downwardly therefrom, so that its hook device can secure to the container to provide for its lifting, transport, and lowering, after it has been moved to a distant location.
Abstract: An adjustable bracket for alternator and related products, including an alternator that adjustably secures with the timing gear cover found on most vehicle engines, an offset mounting bracket securing with the gear cover, and having upwardly extending inclined arms, for connecting with the bottom of the alternator, and a tensioning arm also securing with the timing cover, having an integral bend upwardly towards its linear and arcuate portion, with the arcuate portions of the tensioning arm having a slot formed therein, through which an adjustment bolt secures with the upper part of the alternator, to allow for the alternator to be pivoted, about its offset mounting bracket, to apply the proper tensioning to its installed V belt, to attain its proper operations.
Abstract: A refreshable display unit with a housing, a plurality of refreshable cells housed in the housing, the cells having a guide block with at least six holes, six motors each with a coupler which may be rotated by the motor, a pin fastened to each coupler and extending into engagement with one of the holes of the guide block, and a stop mounted on each coupler for engaging stop elements mounted on the housing for limiting the rotation of the coupler, the placement of the stop elements on the housing being such that it controls the height extension of the pin fastened to the coupler with respect to the guide block, the unit further having a connector for connecting the display unit to the electronic means of a computer. A unit may have a plurality of keys for inputting a character, including at least two sets of keys, a first set being used when the keyboard is oriented in a first direction and a second set being used when the keyboard is oriented in a second direction.
Abstract: A battery isolator alternator bracket incorporating one or more heat sinks comprising at least one heat sink, the bracket formed of two segments, an upper closure segment, and lower base segment, the heat sinks formed preferably of extruded aluminum are shaped to conform to the interior of the bracket, each heat sink including a finned heat exchanger, having a terminal connecting at its front, being in electrical contact with a button diode, adhered thereto, with the terminals of each heat sink connecting either directly or by cable to the battery post of the alternator, for transmission of charge to the various batteries during alternator electrical generation.
