Abstract: An instrument shoulder strap device and method for use with musical instruments, wherein the device comprises: a backless shoulder strap; the shoulder strap has an adjustable front strap; an U shaped mounting bracket, which is attached to the shoulder strap; the U shaped mounting bracket has slidable connecting means for connecting an instrument to the shoulder strap; and wherein the instrument has a pivot axle member having attachment means for attaching the member to the instrument, thereby allowing a user the ability to connect the pivot axle member to the U shaped mounting bracket for attaching and detaching the instrument to the shoulder strap.
Abstract: A system for adding new information on a list on a web page, comprising: a web page, a list item web control containing one or more web controls for said web page, a client side popup of said web page; a new web control of said list item web control, a new command menu of said new web control; a client system for viewing said web page; a command menu of said web control, a lock mechanism, which forces a user to edit only one web control at a time, selecting an option from said command menu, a tabular form for data entry for said selected option, a server system for handling a tabular editing process, and a data storages for handling data inputted and previewed.
Abstract: A method and system for a user to consistently edit information on web pages at real-time. It starts with a authorize login for the said web pages. And then, the process of editing the select data can be done in 3 steps: First a user selects an option from an initial command menu, a tabular form is generated for said selected option; Second, said user inputs data in said tabular form, said user will then selects said option from a command menu on said tabular form; Third, wherein said user selects cancel from said command menu on said tabular form, said user will return back to the initial said command menu, or wherein said user selects submit option from said command menu on said tabular form, said server will store that data in to said data storage, said server will save the data as current data in the web control, said server will generate a new html document and post back onto said system with input data as view data, said system will render the new html document to said web page.
Abstract: A multi-purpose holding device and method for use with guitar shaped instruments, wherein the device comprises: a pivot axle member having attachment means for attaching the member to a guitar, a U-shaped mounting bracket member having first attachment means for attaching the member to a first substrate, the U-shaped mounting bracket member having second attachment means for attaching the member to a second substrate, the U-shaped mounting bracket member having third attachment means for attaching the member to a third substrate, the U-shaped mounting bracket member having fourth attachment means for attaching the member to a fourth substrate, the pivot axle member has a plate that attaches to the back of the guitar, the guitar with the pivot axle member has a slot for slidable connecting to the U-shaped mounting bracket members of the substrate's one through four, thereby allow a user to quickly and easily detach and reattach the holding substrate for the guitar, wherein the substrates one through four are d
Abstract: The present invention is for an apparatus and method for a passive pitchable device for wind turbines comprising: a camshaft having cam grooves engraved; a cylindrical shell; an axial compression spring; said blade assembly and said cylindrical shell are fastened together by screws; a plurality of balls that roll along said cam grooves, and convert the axial displacement to rotation or pitch angle; and wherein the passive pitchable device ensures said blades are at the optimum angle of incidence in the stationary position; as the rotor turns, the net force between centrifugal force on said blade and the resistant force from said compression spring causes the device to move axially outward while rotating to adjust the pitch of the rotor blade so that angle of incidence is optimal for the given wind speed; as the wind speed exceeds the design speed and the centrifugal force on the rotor blade continues to increase, the device continues the move axially outward while rotating in the opposite direction as to adju
Abstract: The present invention is for an apparatus and method for using a special effects drinking lid which can be used to create movement in a moveable object, produce light, and/or produce a distinctive aroma or odor from a drinking container lid. The special effects drinking lid comprises: a container lid; a straw hole; an attaching means for connecting said container lid to a drinking container; an electrical circuit assembly; at least one activating mechanism for triggering at least one special effect; said activating mechanism is connected to said special effects; and said special effects are connected to said container lid.
