Abstract: A device for exercising a dog from a bicycle which includes a triangular framework secured to the bicycle. The device is conveniently attachable to the bicycle and adjustable to fit bicycles of various sizes and construction.

Abstract: A device for scanning a linear section of a UV beam to determine the local intensity thereof along the linear section. The UV beam impinges upon flourescent material and the fluorescent emission distribution is meausred to indicate the UV beam intensity.

Abstract: An aromatic cedar block constructed of two sections joined together for sliding contact between adjacent faces of the sections. One face having a roughed surface that scrapes into the other surface upon rubbing together to increase the cedar scent.

Abstract: A system to assemble a large number of component parts that are located in various positions and brought together to an assembly position. The system contemplates an intermediate station located adjacent to the assembly position to which a supply of components are brought prior to being moved to the assembly position.

Abstract: A digital device for visually displaying the value of a generally continuously varying function, such as car speed. The device displays subranges of a full scale, putting them individually in a viewing area. The displayed subranges in the viewing area will be replaced as required to permit representation of the input function over the full scale. The device allows selection of a new subrange with the property that the input function value initially will be at an interior position in the new subrange, thereby preventing repeated rapid switching between subranges. The subrange display can be defined using scale markers in just a few fixed positions in the viewing area.

Abstract: A reciprocating sanding device having a sanding shoe of two angled plates. The plates form an internal angle in order to sand or abrade an external angle.

Abstract: A device and method for massaging the end area of fingers to stimulate growth of the fingernails and enhance the appearance thereof. An elongated shaft member has an elastomer end adapted to be immersed in oil or cream for massaging the outer finger area.

Abstract: A toy automobile diagnostic center in which a toy automobile is directed onto a platform where various measurements and tests are performed that simulate measurements and tests that are performed on real automobiles. The tests are performed upon the toy which is located at a single test location and include length and height measurements, weight, wheel rotation and others.

Abstract: A device for servicing fabric that is composed primarily of man made fibers such as polyester. The device includes a heated cutting element and two channels that smooth and form the melted edges of the fabric to a desired contour and thickness.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for soldering miniaturized electrical components to the surface of PC boards. A layer of solder paste is provided, into which the contact portions of electrical component leads are pressed. The component with solder paste adhering to the leads is moved to its placement station on the board and placed thereon with the leads contacting their respective pads.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for introducing medicinal fluids into a living body without puncturing the skin. This is done through a root canal of a tooth. A valve device is inserted in the tooth crown and connects to a reservoir of medicinal fluid in the mouth. Pressure on the reservoir will cause fluid to pass from the reservoir through the valve device and root canal into the body tissue.

Abstract: An improved soldering iron tip having a slot for gripping the lead of an electrical component while heat is applied to desolder the lead. As the solder melts the component is removed by the gripping action of the slot as the iron is moved away from the joint.
