Publication number: 20210197300Abstract: A cutting assembly for cutting with at least two saw blades simultaneously, includes a motion conversion means comprises: a first part and a plurality of second parts, for example a first bevel gear (30) and a plurality of second bevel gears (32). The first part is arranged for rotation about a central axis thereof and coupled to a drive means (12) for causing the rotation. The first and second parts are arranged such that the rotation of the first part in a direction of rotation causes rotation in a corresponding direction of rotation of each second part about a respective axis extending away from the central axis of the first part. The cutting assembly also includes, for each second part, a coupling means for coupling the second part to a respective cutting blade (100a-f) and including a further motion conversion means, such that the rotation of the second part causes cutting motion of the cutting blade.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 15, 2019Publication date: July 1, 2021Inventor: Teklemichael Sebhatu

Patent number: 9764400Abstract: Apparatus for converting between rotary motion and linear motion includes a rotatable piece being rotatable about an axis; at least one member having a linking surface facing the rotatable piece and arranged for movement relative to the axis of the piece; and a means for linking the linking surface of the respective member and the surface of the rotatable piece, so that rotational motion of the rotatable piece causes linear movement of the at least one member, and/or linear movement of the at least one member causes rotational motion of the rotatable piece. A sawing device may include said apparatus for cutting by repetitive reciprocating cutting action. A saw blade may be configured for such a sawing device.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2012Date of Patent: September 19, 2017Assignee: GENIUS IP LTD.Inventor: Teklemichael Sebhatu

Publication number: 20160121969Abstract: Hydraulic and pneumatic drive systems and fluid motors (12) and fluid pumps (10) therefor are disclosed. In such systems, rotation motion is converted to reciprocating motion or vice versa. In particular, a motion conversion means comprises a portion extending continuously and circumferentially around a central axis and extending in part longitudinally relative to the central axis, and a linking means, wherein the portion and the linking means are relatively rotatable about the central axis and a one of the linking means and the portion is fixedly coupled to a piston means, wherein the linking means and the portion are configured to cooperate whereby the reciprocating movement of the piston means causes relative rotary motion of the other of the portion and the linking means about said central axis. The other of the portion and the linking means may be coupled to a sleeve means to cause rotation thereof.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 4, 2014Publication date: May 5, 2016Applicant: GENIUS VELO LIMITEDInventor: Teklemichael Sebhatu

Publication number: 20140305460Abstract: A dental flosser (2) comprising a tensioning structure (8, 10, 12) for holding a section of a dental floss for flossing. The dental floss (14) is of continuous length and has on said length a plurality of spaced nodes (30) defining a plurality of sections. The tensioning structure is arranged to apply a tensioning action to a pair of nodes on said length to tension the section (14) defined by the pair. The tensioning structure is so arranged so that the section is replaceable with another one of the sections (14b). A method of operating a dental flosser comprises a) operating the dental flosser to at least partially remove a tensioning action acting on each of the pairs of nodes of the section to tension the section, b) removing the section from the position and locating the other section in the position, and c) applying a tensioning action to the pair of nodes defining the other section.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 30, 2011Publication date: October 16, 2014Inventor: Teklemichael Sebhatu
