Abstract: The need for a simple lifting and leveling system for two wheeled vehicles is met by a jacking system and an adjustable stand. The jacking system is comprised of a base with a rotational member extending through two openings in the parallel sides of the base. A lever handle is attached to the rotational member. A lifting member with a resilient low friction surface is rigidly attached to the rotational member by supporting members. When the lever handle is pushed towards the surface upon which the vehicle rests the lifting member contacts the frame of the vehicle lifting the vehicle to a position of maximum height. The rotational member continues rotating past the zenith of rotation pressing the lever handle to the surface from which the motorcycle is being lifted stabilizing the vehicle. Optional locking mechanisms are incorporated into the jacking system to further insure that the rotational member is prevented from rotating after the vehicle has been lifted.

Abstract: A uniquely configured, constructed photographic light diffuser device for association with a photographic light source, which is versatile in that it is easily and releasably associated with variously configured light sources used in the photographic field, wherein the device is made up of articulated panel segments, the segments having different light reflecting, or diffusing qualities, wherein the diffusing member is easily and releasably associated with the light directing device so as to be able to make up a myriad of difference selected, polygonal configurations to vary lighting patterns and light intensity on photographic objects. The device is light weight and collapsible for ease of carrying and is particularly applicable to the photography field wherein it is desired to achieve and attain various lighting affects.
