  • Publication number: 20100071737
    Abstract: An umbrella and umbrella holder combination is provided comprising an umbrella having a canopy, a shaft connected to the canopy, and a handle connected to the shaft, the handle having a first connector portion; and an umbrella holder having a container adapted to receiving the handle, a second connector portion adapted to cooperate with the first connector portion when the handle is received in the container to prevent rotation of the handle relative to the container, and a clamp assembly adapted to connecting the umbrella holder to a frame member on a golf cart. The combination provides a directional locking fit between the umbrella handle and the umbrella holder so that the umbrella canopy cannot rotate relative to the golf cart, and this is advantageous especially when using an asymmetrical umbrella since the combination allows the umbrella canopy to being maintained in a desired orientation.

  • Patent number: 7175298
    Abstract: The present invention provides lanterns that have a globe or lens with portions that differ in their light transmitting characteristics such that each portion provides a different illuminating effect, and a candle or other light source held within the globe or lens on a holder that is able to swivel or rotate in relation to the globe or lens. This enables the lantern to be positioned such that light from the light source passes primarily through either one of the lens portions for the desired illumination characteristic.

  • Patent number: 6561968
    Abstract: A method for stimulating growth in biological tissue or sprouts, an apparatus and a use thereof employs fluctuating magnetic fields. The apparatus includes a pulse generator and a plurality of coils in which pulsed currents will cause fluctuating magnetic fields in a predetermined region holding the material to be stimulated. The fluctuating magnetic fields will induce an electric field in the material. An enhanced effect has been detected in the regions where the electric fields are largest. The coils include a number of pairs of coils having, during a given pulse, magnetic fields in opposite directions in order to provide field gradients in the cells, micro organisms or tissue. Selecting a suitable number, size and positioning of coils will provide a homogeneous electric field in the predetermined region, which does not have any undesirable peaked maxima.
