Patent number: 5820180Abstract: The present invention is an adjustable multi-purpose lifting apparatus for lifting ties, logs and the like. This invention consists of a fulcrum member having a lever handle integrally attached to a rotational gripping clamp and a second and opposing static gripping clamp connected by a telescopic horizontal structural member, such that when a workman places the tie, log or other object between the gripping clamps and exerts an upward lifting force, the apparatus automatically closes tightly against an outside surface of the tie, log or other object for easy and safe lifting and transportation. A button spring mechanism allows the telescopic horizontal structural member to vary its length and to lock onto a given width of the tie, log or other object. A release grip allows the load to be readily disengaged.Type: GrantFiled: August 5, 1997Date of Patent: October 13, 1998Inventor: Edward Haupt

Patent number: 5595017Abstract: A deep troller weight apparatus for connecting a fishline to a weight body. This invention consists of a locking device located within the weight body for engaging or disengaging a fishline after the deep troller weight apparatus has been submerged into a body of water. By exerting a moderate force on the fishline, the weight body glides by gravitational force along the fishline towards the hook and lure for reeling in the catch. A spiral shaped guide holds the fishline at a fixed position about the deep troller weight body and prevents the locking device from releasing the fishline under relatively small forces.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 1995Date of Patent: January 21, 1997Inventor: Andrew Gaydos
