Abstract: A pneumatic manual air pump powered car racing game presents a housing which serves as a powering station from which a race car is propelled down a race track. A pump handle is manipulated to pressurize an air chamber with substantial pressure, which is released to discharge the race car from its starting position at the housing end of the race track to the distal end of the race track. A race car's starting position refers to the releasably yet hermetically sealed male to female junction between the housing and race car. A signal is comprised at the distal end of the race track to indicate a conclusive race by a triggering device, including a mechanical or electronic device for alerting a player that the race car has reached the end of the track. A race is arranged by two or more users with multiple devices by setting up a parallel series of race tracks.
Abstract: A facial muscle strengthening and lip strengthening device comprises a primary hinge attached to two articulating arms and biased to a predetermined position. Lip-engaging members are attached to the articulating arms opposite the primary hinge and are also attached to the articulating arms in a hinged manner. The lip-engaging members comprise saddle-shaped units to be disposed in front, back, and atop the lips of a user. To employ the device, a user places the device between the lips in a vertical, horizontal or slanted orientation and compresses the device, bringing the lip-engaging members proximally together and causing the primary hinge to depend laterally away from the mouth of the user.
