  • Patent number: 7641372
    Abstract: An advanced headlamp system is proposed for providing a headlamp assembly for vehicles that has peripheral beam technology built in that has a multiplicity of filaments and reflectors built in to provide at least one forward beam and at least one or more peripheral light beams offset in angles to the left (for the driver side) and to the right (for the passenger side) of the forward beam in each assembly each also having a low-beam and a high-beam. The filaments and reflectors are located within a single sealed compartment. An example of a headlamp depicted would have (3) light filament bulbs, (3) reflectors, one pointing forward, one at a 45-degree angle, and one at a 90-degree angle. Included are circuitry and switches to program and to turn the bright lights and the peripheral beam system on or off and to turn the beams on or off automatically when an oncoming car comes within a certain distance.

  • Publication number: 20060226165
    Abstract: A fruit peeling packaging innovation is provided to allow consumers to start to peel a fruit by pulling a glued tab off a fruit. By pulling the tab off a fruit a consumer rips off that portion of the peel that the tab is glued to. Various models can have tabs with an optional cutting edge where the consumer can use the cutting edge to further, peel, clean, and or cut the fruit and eat it. The device includes a tab made of plastic, metal or other material, a tab with a handle, an optional cutting edge, and or an optional spoon, fork, or an optional hybrid spoon-fork. The tab can be made out of a food grade plastic, metal or other moldable material. Further, the tab or handle can be molded or printed thereon to include advertising or slogans and can be applied to any kind of fruit.

  • Publication number: 20050224596
    Abstract: Automatic pesticide, insecticide, repellant, poison, air freshener, disinfectant or other spray-type delivery systems are proposed for automating the delivery of these items to areas, for controlling pests easier, for improving environmental conditions, and for making it easier to freshen the air and to disinfect areas. The device includes a logic circuit and mechanisms containing a circuit that will enable a user to program the device to discharge a spray of its poison, disinfecting or air freshening spray(s) at a pre-selected time interval or day/time interval chosen in the unit's memory. An electromechanical valve opens to let contents escape when the spraying mechanism of the system is activated. The valve connects to a pressurized spray cylinder and it releases a controlled burst of insecticide, pesticide, repellant, disinfectant, and or air freshener as programmed. Control circuits allow the user to set when the system goes off.

  • Publication number: 20050131645
    Abstract: A automatic-transport system with scanning and GPS functions for moving people or objects, on platforms or items placed on an automatic-transport system that can be ejected from it and delivered from one location to another and to return automatically or to proceed to other destination(s) by following GPS coordinates, and or by following a line painted or taped to a floor through forward looking scanners built into the automatic-transport system. The automatic-transport system can arrive at a destination and give an alert when it has arrived. Electromechanical system(s) aboard the unit can drop off contents automatically at destinations and load or unload cargo. The transport unit can proceed from one location to another stored in its memory and or it may be redirected by its circuitry or remotely through a wireless port, or directed by GPS or radio control circuits to a further destination.
