  • Patent number: 8601706
    Abstract: An adjustable stop tool has a rigid elongate body having a tool end, and a stop element slidably positioned on the rigid elongate body. The tool enables a method for positioning a segment of stock for machining and cutting, wherein the stop element is first locked on the rigid elongate body such that the stop element is separated from the tool end by a distance. A segment of the stock is then pulled out of the collet until the stock end is separated from the collet by more than the distance. The adjustable stop tool is then positioned against the stock and pushed towards the collet until the tool end abuts the collet.

  • Patent number: 7555995
    Abstract: An information tracking device has a bottom disk, a middle marker element, a top disk, and a locking element. The bottom disk has a top surface and a perimeter with a first plurality of information indicia imprinted on the top surface adjacent the perimeter. The middle marker has a marking element. The top disk includes an upper surface with a second plurality of information indicia imprinted on the upper surface. The locking element releasably locks the bottom disk, the middle marker, and the top disk together such that the middle marker indicates a selected one of the first plurality of information indicia and a selected one of the second plurality of information indicia.

  • Patent number: 7032535
    Abstract: A tracking device for tracking the ingestion of a plurality of doses of an ingestible material from a container has a time indicating sheet and a plurality of dose indicators. A plurality of time indicating indicia is imprinted on a top surface of the time indicating sheet, each of the plurality of time indicating indicia being spatially separated from each other on the top surface and being adapted to indicate a time period. The plurality of dose indicators each have printed on an upper surface one of a plurality of dose identifying indicia and a reference mark that indicates a direction of orientation visible on each of the plurality of dose indicators. A layer of adhesive on a lower surface of the plurality of dose indicators allows the plurality of does indicators to be attached to the top surface of the time indicating sheet such that the reference mark visibly indicates a direction of orientation that is associated with one of the plurality of time indicating indicia.

  • Patent number: 5197749
    Abstract: A keyless chucking device for use with existing and specially-designed chucks mounted on rotary power tools to cause the chuck's jaws to grip or release auxiliary tools such as drill bits. The device is especially suited for use with variable speed, reversible, electric drills and promotes speed and efficiency in tool chucking operations. In a preferrred embodiment, the device may alternatively, at the discretion of the operator, be attached to, or removed from, the chuck of the power tool during its use in operations commonly encountered in the practice of the art.
