Publication number: 20160018070Abstract: A compact lighting device includes a battery-powered light emitting element and a housing that can be magnetically attached to a ferrous metal object, such as a hand tool. The housing and/or magnet can be provided with a longitudinal groove that causes the lighting device to automatically self-align with any cylindrical object to which it may be attached. The housing can have a switch extending therefrom to allow a user to activate and deactivate the light emitting element. Alternatively, the light emitting element can be turned on and off by moving the housing relative to the magnet.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 6, 2014Publication date: January 21, 2016Applicant: INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT LLCInventors: GARY VAN DEURSEN, BRIAN E.

Publication number: 20150313413Abstract: A beverage mixing system includes a housing, a sealing feature, a locking feature, and an agitator. The housing has an opening separating inner and outer surfaces and a boss that extends through the housing such that part of the outer surface forms an inner bore of the boss having a terminus pointing toward the opening. The agitator has a base, a shaft, and a mixing element coupled to the base such that the base, in cooperation with the sealing feature, circumferentially seals the opening of the housing to form a cavity defined by the inner surface. The shaft passes through the inner bore. The locking feature when engaged permits independent or simultaneous translational and rotational movement of the shaft while an area between the terminus of the boss and the shaft remains mechanically sealed during the movement against liquid or powder encroachment into a clean area of the inner bore.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 15, 2015Publication date: November 5, 2015Inventors: Gian-Carlo Ochoa, Brendan J. Duffy, Chris Penna, Gary Van Deursen

Publication number: 20080282546Abstract: A compact utility knife includes a blade holder slidably connected to a handle. A trapezoidal utility blade detachably mounts to the blade holder via a blade lock mechanism. A slide lock mechanism selectively retains the blade holder in its extended or retracted position relative to the handle. When the blade holder is extended, the blade holder and a majority of the blade extend forwardly of a forwardmost point of the handle. Extending the blade holder significantly increases an overall length of the knife such that the knife is comfortable to use when in the extended position and longitudinally compact when in the retracted position. The knife includes a blade lock mechanism. An aperture in the front of the handle creates a gap between the blade and the handle to discourage debris on the blade from transferring to the handle when the blade is retracted.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 2, 2005Publication date: November 20, 2008Applicant: THE STANLEY WORKSInventors: Eric RANIERI, Stephen ROWLAY, Gary VAN DEURSEN

Patent number: 7364320Abstract: A handheld flashlight includes a head that pivots relative to a body. Three legs pivotally connect to the body and open into a tripod to support the head in an elevated position. The legs are spring-biased toward the open tripod position and are selectively held closed by a detent mechanism. In the closed position, the legs form a flashlight handle that is aligned with an illumination direction of the head and is shaped and sized to be held in the hand of an operator. Each of the three legs contain battery source holders for battery sources that connect to each other in parallel. Diodes are disposed in series with each battery source to prevent the parallel battery sources from discharging each other.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 2006Date of Patent: April 29, 2008Assignee: The Stanley WorksInventors: Gary Van Deursen, Joseph Martone, Vincent Cook, Michael Kwok Ying Chan

Patent number: 7296909Abstract: A handheld flashlight includes a head that pivots relative to a body. At least two legs pivotally connect to the body at a fixed location along the body, and open into an extended, open or deployed position to support the head in an elevated position. In the closed or handheld flashlight position, the legs form a flashlight handle that is aligned with an illumination direction of the head and is shaped and sized to be held in the hand of an operator. Each of the legs may contain battery source holders for battery sources that connect to each other.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 2006Date of Patent: November 20, 2007Assignee: The Stanley WorksInventors: Gary Van Deursen, Joseph Martone, Vincent Cook, Michael Kwok Ying Chan
