Abstract: A power amplification and transfer assembly and alternative multi-stage systems wherein power is transferred to the outer periphery of included flywheels via included drive frames and lever arms. One power transfer assembly comprises an elongated framework that rotationally supports a drive frame, a pair of flywheel frames and a spring biased, resilient, flexible lever arm assembly. The drive frame, flywheels and lever arm assemblies are mounted to independent axles. Couplers at the drive frame and lever arm assemblies are secured to the outer circumference of the flywheel(s). System input power is provided from a gas/diesel engine and chain/sprocket linkage or a powered hydraulic engine and pump that increase the rpm's to the power amplification assembly. Successive amplification stages are coupled together with powered or un-powered couplers (e.g. hydraulic pump/engine, wind turbine).

Abstract: A truss member for the erection of a building structure being fabricated in twenty eight foot lengths having top and bottom full length 2.times.4 members having intermediate angled hardwood members with spaced vertical hardwood members and plywood full length at each side thereof and at either outer side the full length thereof angled iron members and at each end thereof transverse bolts forming a unitary parallel metal truss box beam member requiring no bearing walls in providing overhead support reducing the cost of fabrication relative to a prior art truss member on the order of fifty percent and reducing the time and cost of erecting a frame structure by substantially a like amount of savings.

Abstract: An exercise device which includes a single mounting rail, a support post for supporting one end of the rail at selected elevations, a carriage having rollers for travelling along the rail, and a pulley arrangement having pulleys attached to the support as well as lines which extend through the pulleys from the carriage and back to the carriage for moving the carriage along the rail.

Abstract: An adjustable socket wrench having a socket head at one end with a recess adapted to receive a socket handle at the other end. The socket head is formed with a plurality of arcuately spaced openings which extend entirely through said socket head, and a plurality of gripping jaws fit relatively closely within and extend through the openings. Means are provided to operatively connect the wrench housing and the jaws for moving the jaws either toward or away from each other thereby to accommodate and tightly engage varying size objects to be rotated by the wrench.
