Abstract: A toothbrush tip for a motorized toothbrush with a first brush head and a second brush head. The second brush head encircles the first brush head. The first and second brush heads has different axes of rotation. The first and second brush heads are driven by an elongated shaft. The shaft engages the second brush head. Interactive gear teeth associated with each first and second brush heads allows the first and second brush heads to rotate at opposite direction, upon being driven by the shaft.

Abstract: A sprinkler valve test and control device that is used to test and control a sprinkler valve having a solenoid plunger without the need for electricity. The sprinkler valve test and control device includes a cup shaped yoke body having a cavity and an opening, a magnet positioned in the cavity, and the magnetic having a magnetic field directed towards the opening of the cavity, and an epoxy fill sealing and securing the magnet in the cavity. When the device is placed over a solenoid plunger, the magnetic field actuates the solenoid plunger of the sprinkler valve to turn the sprinkler valve on. The device allows efficient and effective determination of the reasons for the malfunctioning of sprinkler valves.
Abstract: A multi-user information processing method for managing and determining tax provision information that includes a source database storing data for determining tax provision information; a calculation engine for performing information processing operations on the data stored in the source database for determining tax provision information; a transformed database for storing tax provision information determined by the calculation engine; and a reporting engine for producing reports using information from the transformed database.

Abstract: A device for removing and harvesting veins that minimizes the invasive nature of the procedure by providing an internal cutting device with an inner blade to sever the vein at the desired location from below the skin surface, after separation of the vein from the surrounding tissue. The device also includes a serrated cutting tip, a cutting system having a looped wire or two or more wires connected at the distal end of the device, which can be tightened to sever the vein in lieu of the use of the inner blade, or heated by a power source to cauterize the vein. An injection port and cannula may also be contained in the device for delivery of local anesthesia around the vein.
Abstract: A toy gun that shoots glowing projectiles and the method of providing glowing projectiles to a toy gun. The toy gun having a body, at least one black light responsive projectile, a cartridge for supplying the projectiles to the body, at least one black light source within the body for exposing the projectile to black light, a triggering mechanism for engaging the exposed projectile and a launching mechanism for expelling the exposed projectile from the toy gun, such that the projectiles expelled from the toy gun has a glowing effect as if internally lit.
Abstract: A collapsible toy air gun with at least two tapered tubular sections adapted to be cooperatively joined coaxially, at least one supporting plate, a diaphragm and a resilient string. The tapered tubular sections are correspondingly sized concentrically to form a tubular body having a larger and an opposite smaller opening end in the extended operational position. At least one supporting plate is mounted on the circumferential surface of the tubular body to maintain the tubular sections in the extended position. The diaphragm is mounted transversely across the larger opening end of the tubular body with a pull knob and back support secured to the diaphragm. The resilient string is mounted across the smaller opening end of the tubular body through the back support.
