  • Publication number: 20080229647
    Abstract: A fishing rod fixing device includes a base that is supported by two suction cups for easy and efficient attachment of the device to a smooth fixture surface. A seat is rotatably mounted on the base and is releasably set any desired horizontal direction by an adjustment knob. The seat includes a tubular bar on which at least one retainer is mounted and rotatable about the bar for setting the retainer at any desired inclination angle. An angle locking member is provided to releasably secure the retainer at the desired inclination angle. The retainer has a base support mounted to the tubular bar and a top wall member spaced from the base support to define a passage therebetween for receiving a fishing rod. A locking member is provided on the top wall and is manually movable to releasably and selectively secure the fishing rod to the base support.

  • Patent number: 7367366
    Abstract: A pumping device includes a container having a cover structure. A piston is movably received in the container and is manually operable. The cover structure has an air inlet valve and a slide switch, which, when properly set, allow air to be sucked into or expelled out of the container by the manual operation of the piston to increase or decrease the internal pressure of the container for oil suction and oil drainage. The pumping device also includes another slide switch, whereby when both slide switches are properly set, the internal pressure of the container is increased or decreased due to the supply of pressurized air from an external source and oil can be sucked into and drained out of the container accordingly.

  • Publication number: 20080086971
    Abstract: A frame includes an aluminum-extruded body having top, middle, and bottom sections, which are integrally connected together in a vertical direction. The top section forms a top channel having two spaced racks mounted thereto by webs respectively. Each web defines a slit. The bottom section forms a bottom cannel having two spaced side wall extending therefrom, and each side wall forms a rib. The top and bottom sections are connected by the middle section therebetween and sideways extend beyond the middle section to form a slot for receiving and holding a slide rail therein. The ribs and the slits are formed and positioned in such a way that the ribs of the frame are slidably engageable with the slits of an identical frame positioned just under the frame so as to expand the frame.

  • Publication number: 20080017449
    Abstract: Disclosed is a pneumatic grease applicator includes a receptacle in which a retainer that forms a tubular axle selectively fit into a bearing to which grease is to be applied and a presser that defines a bore fit over the axle are movably received. The presser forms a top cavity in which a nozzle for coupling an external grease source is fixed. Grease is pneumatically supplied through the nozzle into the tubular axle and discharge through radially-extending holes defined in the axle to cover the bearing fit on the axle. An air vent is formed in the presser for pressure balance. Sealing members are provided between side wall of the receptacle and both the retainer and the presser to prevent leakage of grease.

  • Patent number: 7270357
    Abstract: A distance and orientation adjustable suction device includes two suction cups and a controlling mechanism connected between the suction cups. Each suction cup has a rotatable mounting block. The controlling mechanism includes a main body forming a knuckle joint with the mounting block of one suction cup and defines a channel movably receiving a rack that threadingly engages a internally-threaded cylinder that forms a knuckle with the mounting block of the other suction cup. Thus, the suction cups are each rotatable about two axes with respect to the main body and are linear movable with respect to each other. Further, the threading engagement between the cylinder and the rack allows for minute adjustment between linear distance between the suction cups.

  • Publication number: 20070034451
    Abstract: Disclosed is a pneumatic grease applicator includes a receptacle in which a retainer that retains a bearing to which grease is to be applied and a presser that securely holds the presser on the retainer are movably received. The receptacle has a bottom nozzle through which grease is continuously supplied from an external source under a pneumatically induced driving force, whereby the grease can be consecutively applied to a number of bearings without interrupts. Sealing members are provided between the retainer and the presser and side wall of the receptacle to prevent leakage of grease.

  • Patent number: 6951222
    Abstract: A radiator cleaning device includes a fresh fluid tank for preserving fresh fluid to be filled into a radiator and a used fluid tank for collecting used fluid from the radiator. A discharge hose is releasably connected to an outlet of the radiator. The discharge hose is selectively connectable to the used fluid tank for discharging the used fluid into the used fluid tank. An intake hose is releasably connected to an inlet of the radiator. The intake hose is selectively connectable to the fresh fluid tank for receiving the fresh fluid therefrom. Pressure/vacuum generation units selectively generate a vacuum inside the used fluid tank to forcibly draw the used fluid from the radiator via the discharge hose and generates a pressure inside the fresh fluid tank to forcibly drive the fresh fluid from the fresh fluid tank into the radiator via the intake hose. The discharge hose is also selectively connectable to the intake hose by a three-way valve for circulating the used fluid to the intake hose.
