Abstract: Disclosed is a stroller (1) moveable between a fully deployed state and a fully collapsed state. The stroller (1) comprises: a seat (2) comprising a seat back (5) pivotably connected to a seat base (6), and one or more stops arranged to prevent the stroller (1) from moving from its fully deployed state to its fully collapsed state, wherein the one or more stops arranged to be released to permit the stroller (1) to move from its fully deployed state to its fully collapsed state when at least one of the seat base (6) and seat back (5) is pivoted towards the other. The stroller provides improved safety.

Abstract: A valve assembly (100) for a penis pump (1102), comprises a valve cap (110) comprising a hole (115); and a valve stem (120) extending through the hole (115) in the valve cap (110). The valve assembly (100) is adapted such that axial motion of the valve stem (120) causes the valve stem (120) to mechanically interact with the valve cap (110), so that the valve stem (120) moves between a first position, in which the valve stem (120) seals a pump chamber (1108) of the penis pump (1102), and a second position, in which the valve stem (120) operates as a one way valve. Accordingly, axial motion of the valve stem (120) is used to select the function of the valve assembly (100).

Abstract: A foldable stroller frame comprising a lower frame. The lower frame has a front frame section and a rear frame section which are pivotal relative to one another. The lower frame also has a hinge device linking the front frame section to the rear frame section. The hinge device has at least two parts pivotally coupled together and rotatable about a movable axis of rotation between a deployed state and a collapsed state. The hinge device also has a handle arranged along the axis of rotation for grasping by a user to enable the hinge device to be operated.

Abstract: A folding perambulator has a wheeled foldable frame 1 with front frame members 10 which may be folded toward rear frame members 5 when a seating member 2 is removed from the frame 1. A handle 7 is also arranged to be foldable downwardly toward the rear wheels 3. A locking mechanism 6 is provided to permit the frame and handle to be folded. The handle includes a rotatable member 25 which, in one direction of rotation, is arranged to adjust the length of the handle by permitting telescoping of tubular members 26, 27, and in an opposite direction of rotation to cause the locking mechanism, which includes a dog clutch 80, to be disengaged to permit the frame and handle to be folded to a closed position.

Abstract: A pump (102) comprising a chamber (108) adapted to receive a penis, a non-return valve (156), and pumping means (110) operable to pump fluid from the chamber (108), wherein the pump (102) is adapted for use under water.

Abstract: A mascara applicator in the form of a tube (10) has an applicator brush (22, 24) captive in the cap (12). To enable the brush to be moved within the body of mascara (16) in the tube, a mechanism is provided which produces movement of the brush relative to the mascara-containing tube, before the cap is released from the tube. Various different mechanisms, which will produce this movement, are described. The invention is not limited to use for mascara application.

Abstract: A loan origination system and method includes a special button that is placed on a loan Originator's website, a web page linked to the special button with a loan application button provided by a direct lender, a personal assistant provided by the direct lender and assigned to the loan Originator, and an abbreviated loan application which is accessed from the web page, and submitted on-line to the direct lender.

Abstract: The present invention provides a laundry bleaching composition comprising: a) a macrocycilc tetra amido N-donor metal-ligand complex (preferably, 5,6-benzo-3,8,11,13-tetraoxo-2,2,9,9,12,12-hexamethyl-1,4,7,10-tetraaza-cyclo-tridecane), and b) an alkyl benzene sulphonate surfactant, said composition being substantially devoid of any added peroxygen bleach or a peroxy-based or peroxy-generating bleach system.

Abstract: A process for the treatment of non-keratinaceous textiles, preferably cellulosic fibers, which comprises the step of treating the textiles with a composition which comprises: a self-crosslinking polymer and a nucleophilic species (preferably a polymer comprising at least one protected thiol group), and a textile compatible carrier. Under domestic washing conditions the polymer forms reactive thiol groups which are capable of causing covalent cross-linking with the polymer. Preferably, the thiol group is protected as an isothiouronium group.
