Abstract: A hammer and chisel device for clearing slag from welds includes a chipping chisel interchangeably and springingly affixed within a weighted handle having a slip resistant grip. Since welds often produce slag in a hard to reach spot, the invention provides for repeated one handed slag removal. A sturdy chisel with a resilient cutting surface is replaceably received by the handle utilizing a releasable retaining washer and retaining ring. A spring within the handle returns the chisel shank to an extended position, thereby providing for repeatable hammer-like blows to the chisel shank by the handle. The handle or striking rod includes a chisel shank guide receiving track for consistent sequential strikes without axial rotation. A molded slip resistant grip minimizes necessary grip pressure and prevents hand slippage. Heavy construction provides sufficient force for quick, one handed operation. A slim design provides for easy handling and use in harder to reach places.

Abstract: A robot in the form of a toy simulating a spider is provided wherein the robot is capable of maintaining balance while walking, turning and running in a race-type setting on level ground and over a ramp or small obstacles. A preferrred embodiment of the robot has four operatively cooperating legs which are remotely controlled by a motor on each of the left side and the right side of the robot. A gear reduction mechanism to improve torque is considered. The operative cooperating legs are designed such that alternate legs on each side are in a DOWN position when mirrored legs are in a DOWN position, thereby providing balance while walking with four of the eight legs in a DOWN position while remaining legs are in an UP position.

Abstract: A portable table includes a frame that is worn by various size users while standing or sitting and can be used where free-standing tables are impractical for writing, eating and other purposes. Two hooks that telescope longitudinally from the main frame fit over the user's shoulders. A table is affixed rotatingly at a bottom side to the main frame and rotatingly and removably at a top side to a slider which is slidably affixed to the main frame. Moving the slider upward thereby rotates the table surface toward the main frame for storage while moving the slider downward rotates the table surface essentially perpendicular to the main frame for use. The slider can further be locked into place using convention means. In addition, a support bar is affixed rotatingly to the bottom of the main frame and can be rotated toward and affixed to the table in a conventional manner while the table is in use.
