Abstract: A continuous throttle regulation device employs a motor throttle body located proximate to a motor or engine, and an accelerator pedal located remote from the motor or engine. A return switch (RS) is responsive to the motor throttle body, and a pressure sensitive switch (PSS) is responsive to the accelerator pedal position. Power is passed through both switches then to a critical electronic element required to run the motor, such as a distributor. Therefore, when both switches are open, power to the critical element is interrupted, slowing or stopping the motor. When both switches are closed, the power is restored to the ignition causing the motor to operate. Therefore, the system may engage and disengage automatically and intermittently numerous times in a short period of time, thereby safely limiting motor speed, while restoring power in a split second to keep the motor running and operational. This technology may also be applied to gasoline, diesel, and electric motors to regulate their operation.

Abstract: A novel escape system comprised of a plurality of escape devices each which resemble a window shutter, are mounted on the outside of a building, adjacent the windows vertically above the next lower escape device. Since these take up no space inside of the building, and are aesthetically pleasing, they are less likely to be removed or overridden making them functional a greater percentage of the time. Each is comprised of a frame to hold a plurality of slats connected to a collapsible vertical connecting means a predetermined distance apart from the others. In its storage position, the slats are held in the frame in an angled position resembling louvers. When in the operational position, the slats are allowed to drop down out of the frame and extend down to the next lower escape device with the slats acting as steps of a ladder. The bottommost end of the escape device connects to the top of the next lower escape device to create a continuous escape system allowing egress from any floor to the ground.
