Patent number: 6638201Abstract: A compact push-pull exercise apparatus having a partial turn outer cam surface in contact with a random surface such as a floor, and one or more handles rotatably mounted to the cam rotational axis. The operator begins an exercise cycle in the kneeling position with hands on the handles and with arms generally near the vertical position. The operator pushes the apparatus forward to a stopping position with the operator nearly prone. During the first portion of the forward movement, gravitational energy is stored as the cam rotational axis is lifted. As the operator reverses the movement from the prone position to the kneeling position, gravitational energy is released during the first portion of the in-stroke to ease the return motion during the most difficult portion of the exercise cycle.Type: GrantFiled: October 25, 2001Date of Patent: October 28, 2003Assignee: Delphi Oracle Corp.Inventor: Louis Dischler

Patent number: 6519856Abstract: The various embodiments of the invention are directed to safety razor heads (120) having intrinsically fenced cutting blades (136, 138) oriented at a high slicing angle to the shaving direction. The razor comprises a plurality of short cutting edges (4) in a spaced relationship across the width of the cutting zone, bounded by leading (112) and trailing guards (104), and oriented at an angle greater than 30 degrees, resulting in enhanced cutting action, improved lubricant and debris flow, and longer life of the cutting edges. Lateral skin tensioning is achieved in one embodiment by the spreading action of left and right oriented cutting edges.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 1999Date of Patent: February 18, 2003Assignee: Delphi Oracle CorpInventor: Louis Dischler

Patent number: 6428443Abstract: The main rotor of a helicopter is driven by an epicyclic gearbox comprising a rotor sun gear coaxial and co-rotational with the rotor, a stationary sun gear coaxial with the rotor sun gear, at least one planet having an axis parallel to and rotating about the sun gear axis, and making contact with both sun gears. The planet comprises first and second planetary coaxial gears mechanically constrained to rotate together. The first planetary gear is in meshing engagement with the stationary sun gear and the second planetary gear is in meshing engagement with the rotor sun gear. The first planetary gear is also in meshing engagement with the internal teeth of a first ring gear and the second planetary gear is also in meshing engagement with the internal teeth of a second ring gear. The first and second ring gears are separately driven, and torque is combined by the planets.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 2001Date of Patent: August 6, 2002Assignee: Delphi Oracle Corp.Inventor: Louis Dischler
