Abstract: According to some embodiments, an adjustable assembly for a bicycle includes a lower tubular support configured to be attached to a bicycle frame; an upper tubular support configured to be attached to a bicycle saddle; an expansion portion support member positioned within an interior space of the lower tubular support; an expansion portion disposed at an upper end of the expansion portion support member; and a resilient member configured to provide an upwardly-directed force to the upper tubular support to provide movement of the upper tubular support away from the lower tubular support.

Abstract: An adjustable trigger assembly adapted for installation into the carrier of an AK-47 and similar rifles. The assembly features a plurality of adjusting screws to adjust the force required for trigger pull, the over travel of the trigger after firing, and the forward rotational force and angle of a disconnector rotationally engaged in a slot in the trigger to thereby allow for adjustment of the force required during both stages of pull of a two stage trigger to fire the weapon. The device is adapted for engagement with the receiver of a conventional AK-47 in replacement of the original trigger mechanism and may be used with the original hammer or optionally may employ a replacement hammer which features limited contact with the trigger assembly to lessen the trigger pull required for firing.

Abstract: A shock absorber formed of an inner tubular element telescopingly slidable within an outer tubular element. A piston is mounted on the inner tubular element and is provided with valving that permits adjustability of compression damping separate from rebound damping. Preferably, the piston slides within a glide tube substantially concentrically mounted within the outer tubular and having a highly finished surface along which the piston slides. A first chamber is formed within the glide tube a second chamber is formed between the outer tubular element and the glide tube. Valves are positioned between these first and second chambers to control compression flow and rebound flow separately and independently. A main compression spring is positioned external to and between the inner and outer tubular elements of the shock absorber, and acts to bias the tubular elements away from each other.

Abstract: A first aid package for emergency use in the field for treating and transporting seriously burned patients. The first aid package comprises a soft resilient water absorbent foam material placed on a flexible waterproof outer covering having a pair of interlocking portions. A sterile sheet is placed over the resilient foam material and the sheet and the foam are saturated with an aqueous solution. The burn patient is placed on the sterile sheet and completely covered by the sterile sheet thereby enclosing the patient in a sterile atmosphere. An aqueous solution is then poured over the sheet so as to completely saturate the sheet and the uppermost portion of the patient. The cooperating interlocking portions of the flexible waterproof covering are placed completely around the sheet and the patient and locked into position thereby maintaining the patient in a sterile moist atmosphere.
