Abstract: A modular floor exercise assembly for performing floor exercises includes a plurality of floor supports that is each removably attachable together to form a bridge-like structure that can be positioned on a support surface. A pair of cross members is each removably attachable between a respective pair of the floor supports. A handle unit is removably attachable to the cross members when the cross members are attached to the floor supports. Thus, the handle unit can be gripped by a user thereby facilitating the user to perform floor exercises such as a pushup. The handle unit is slidable along each of the cross members to facilitate the user to perform the floor exercises at a variety of different angles with respect to the support surface.

Abstract: The present invention is a bottle that can be transformed into a glass. The bottle includes a first portion for holding a first serve of a beverage, and a second portion adapted for holding a second serve of the beverage. The second portion and the first portion are configured to removably engage to each other using an engaging mechanism. The bottle further includes one or more closure members that removably engage to the second portion or are retained within a void region within the first portion. Further, when the bottle is in use, the closure member is removed and connected on top of the first portion to form the glass in order to consume the first serve of the beverage contained therein, and if needed, refill the glass with the second serve of the beverage contained in the second portion.

Abstract: A novel animal training apparatus and method for relieving various emotional and psychological issues in animals in captivity, including separation anxiety, boredom, depression and keeping the animal intellectually engaged by attempting to obtain a food treat from inside the animal training apparatus.

Abstract: A telescopic fishing rod carrycase for storing and transporting a fishing rod comprises a primary hollow compartment (PHC), a docking attachment, a first hollow casing (FHC), a second hollow casing (SHC), a third hollow casing (THC), and a locking mechanism. The PHC comprises an outer surface and an inner surface. The docking attachment is detachably attached to a projection positioned on the outer surface of the PHC for securing the fishing rod. The outer surface of the FHC is slidably engaged to the inner surface of the PHC. The outer surface of the SHC is slidably engaged to the inner surface of the FHC. The outer surface of the THC is slidably engaged to the inner surface of the SHC. The locking mechanism restrains the FHC, SHC, and THC in an extended position. The FHC, SHC, and THC together store the fishing rod.

Abstract: A dog harness is comprised of a torso strap encircling a dog's chest, connected to a chest strap passing around the chest of a dog, and a shoulder strap passing over the back of a dog. The chest strap is provided with a elongate linker. A leash connector is fixed to both ends of the elongate linker. When a leash is attached to either leash connector, a directional pull on the leash causes the leash connector to slide in the direction of the pull, pulling the elongate linker to the side creating a noise detectable by the animal to assist in the training of the animal. If the leash becomes tight pulling the elongate linker all the way to the side it will move the pull off the center of the dog's chest, thus decreasing the opposition reflex.

Abstract: An apparatus for winding continuously produced cable about a take-up spool includes a frame, a traveler assembly, multiple take-up spool assemblies, and a translation system for automatically moving the traveler assembly into an aligned position with each spool assembly. The traveler assembly is movably mounted to the frame for receiving and for paying out continuously produced cable. Each spool assembly comprises a pair of opposing arms and a cable snagger. Each pair of opposing arms is configured to rotatably mount a spool therebetween. The cable snagger is secured to a member rotatably mounted on one arm and is configured to extend through an aperture in a flange of a spool in order to engage a free end of a continuously produced cable. A release mechanism for disengaging the snagger from the cable, once at least one wrap of the cable has been wound about the spool, is also provided.
