Abstract: A pair of conveyors having a pair of launch conveyors and at least one pair of drive conveyors is disclosed using modular flat belts. The pair of launch conveyors has zero motion, when a vehicle is driven onto the pair of launch conveyors where the vehicle is placed in park. The pair of launch conveyors is activated to a speed in synchronous with the pair of drive conveyers. The vehicle is moved from the pair of launch conveyors to the pair of drive conveyors and proceeds along the flat modular belts.
Abstract: A facial and neck muscle exercising device for positioning against opposite corners of a person's mouth at the opening thereof to strengthen and tone facial and neck muscles. The exercising device includes a pair of mouth spreading arms each having an elongate slide member and an end member contoured to engage the opposite corners of the person's mouth. The slide members are slidably connected together longitudinally and an arm retaining device connected thereto controls sliding movement and resistance of the mouth spreading arms. Versions of the arm retaining device elastically bias the end members against the corners of the person's mouth in an adjustable manner, allow adjustment of the length or range of motion of the exercising device, retain the exercising device at a fixed length, or a combination thereof.
Abstract: An illuminating handle/strap for lifting, pulling, carrying, opening, holding a container and the like is presented. The light source is the handle/strap. Illumination can occur in different ways by aiming the light emitting means. Directions can be: generally, as in all directions; partially, such as down into a container, at what it is attached to, or towards the person using it; specifically, such as at signage on or adjacent to what it is attached to; or in a combination of several directions at once. Different or combinations of light emitting means can be used. The handle can be rigid or flexible. This is a simple cost effective way to increase visibility and safety.
Abstract: The current invention is a desktop operated computer control mouse including a housing, electronic circuitry within the housing, a user manipulable rotatable ball, optical technology, or other means for pointing control, and a plurality of front mounted buttons that are in addition to the standard depressible buttons known in the prior art of a computer control mouse, which are exposed on the housing and are electronically connected with circuitry. At least some or all of the additional finger depressible buttons are for user selection of signals to be sent to the computer for the purpose of initiating functioning macros, inputting specified user data, or launching user pre-selected commands, and are associated with electronic switches that allow for at least three input stages; depressing and holding, pressing once, and pressing twice.
