  • Patent number: 5653171
    Abstract: Disclosed are improved, unpredictably tumbleable capsule structures that are loosely internally provided with weighty rollable spherical ball, whereby such improved capsule is adapted to unpredictably compete with identical tumbleable capsule structures along downwardly-inclined ramps. Such improved tumbleable capsule structures are preferably circularly symmetrical about a directionally longitudinally extending horizontal central-axis and also about a central vertical-plane, and having uniquely ratioed capsule housing and interior rollable sphere interdimensional parameter values. Ancillarily disclosed are improved topically-textured and judicially-inclined racing ramps and ramp starting gates, all devoted toward enhancing unpredictable racing capability for a plurality of identically constructed internally-weighted tumbleable capsule structures along downwardly-extending ramps.

  • Patent number: 4083321
    Abstract: A first-strip of laminar material is securely attached to a wallet or analagous pocketable item for a wearing apparel garment, and a second-strip of laminar material is attached inside the garment pocket. The first and second strips of laminar material are removably adherent together whereby if a pickpocket attempts thievery of the wallet, a warning tug is coincidentally exerted against the wearer's garment. Preferably, the first and second strips are of the mechanically removably adherent hooks-and-eyes type which permits repeated effective removable adhesions and which also provides a supplemental audio signal to the garment wearer simultaneous with tugging wallet removal from the garment pocket.
