Abstract: Color Changing Sunglass Frames include two temple support members hingedly attached to a frame assembly. The frame assembly includes a left lens frame and a right lens frame which are identically shaped and attached in the middle by a center support structure. Each lens frame holds a corresponding sunglass lens. The temple support members extend beyond the user's ears to hold the sunglasses on his or her head. The entire sunglass frame is treated with a photo-chromatic dye. As the sunglass frames are exposed to ultraviolet light the photo-chromatic dye will react to the light and the frames will change colors. When the sunglass frames are removed from the ultraviolet light exposure they will return to their original color.
Abstract: The present invention of a Bubbling Liquid Display includes a variable-pressure air source which injects air into a liquid within a panel at variable flow rates into an number of individual chambers to create a unique bubbling pattern for each chamber which includes large bubbles which move upwards within the fluid in the display, and smaller bubbles which move downwards within the fluid in the display. The display may be drained a single chamber at a time, eliminating the need to completely drain the display for maintenance, and also is substantially leak-proof, despite being tipped or knocked over. The display incorporates a fluid which resists evaporation, corrosion, and algae formation, despite being constantly bubbled or exposed to sunlight or other sources of heat, and which may be effectively recirculated through the display. The display is also adaptable to retrofit vending machines, as well as a variety of other useful items, such as point-of-purchase displays and wall-hangings.
Abstract: A Pressure Sensitive Alarm Component is provided and includes a pressure plate and a base plate. Within the base plate are the pressure plate truss assemblies, the weight transfer assembly, and the sliding switch assembly. The weight transfer assembly includes a load transfer arm which moves back and forth as weight is placed on or removed from the pressure plate and a dial to adjust the position of the load transfer arm. The sliding switch assembly includes a sliding contact support arm which is rigidly linked to the load transfer arm. The sliding switch assembly further includes a plurality of stationary contacts incorporated into a base plate, and two sliding contacts mounted on the sliding contact support arm. The sliding contacts may move along the stationary contacts and open and close the control circuit as they come in out of contact with different pairs of stationary contacts.
Abstract: A Multi-Purpose Golf Bag includes a rigid storage tube for protecting golf clubs, and includes a number of smaller tubes sized to receive the golf club shafts. Each individual tube holds one golf club and keeps that club from banging and rattling against the other clubs. The Multi-Purpose Golf Bag also includes a rigid lid which may be securely fastened to the rigid storage body. The Multi-Purpose Golf Bag may also be equipped with a carrying strap and handles for carrying the Multi-Purpose Golf Bag. The Multi-Purpose Golf Bag may also include a removable wheel assembly and a removable storage bag which may be strapped to the Multi-Purpose Golf Bag during use, yet removed when traveling on an airplane.
