  • Publication number: 20160178179
    Abstract: A grow light system for growing plants. The grow light system can have a carrier board assembly containing a plurality of apertures and a plurality of LED modules removably engaged with the carrier board in the apertures and forming a gap between LED module and the carrier board. The grow light system can be configured to draw air through the gap over the LEDs and along the heat sink fin to reduce the temperature of the LED module. A plurality of the LED modules can be connected in series and the carrier board can include a dedicated receptacle for a single LED module that is not connected in series with the remaining LED modules.

  • Patent number: 6722040
    Abstract: An adapter for a weed eater is movably connected to a lower side of a spinning spool of a weed eater. The adapter when installed to the weed eater has a cord equal in height to weeds after they are cut. A center of the seat of the adapter has a penetrating hole. A stud penetrates through the penetrating hole of the adapter so as to lock the spinning spool of the weed eater. Since the diameter of the penetrating hole is larger than the diameter of the stud, the adapter and the spinning spool are movable connected to one another, and the adapter can move along the stud. The weight of the weed eater can be transferred to a ground so as to reduce the burden of the user and the weed eater can avoid stones as it is trimming weeds.
