  • Patent number: 7482768
    Abstract: A hybrid electric lawnmower having dual power supply is described which includes an electric motor operating the blade and the ability to drive the motor from either 120 VAC line voltage or from a battery pack. There is a user selectable power selection switch for switching between DC or AC power in order to run the motor on either line voltage or based upon the charge of the battery pack.

  • Patent number: 7479754
    Abstract: A hybrid electric lawnmower is described which includes an electric motor operating the blade and the ability to drive the motor from either 120 VAC line voltage or from a battery pack. There is a user selectable power selection switch for switching between DC or AC power and also a boost and conserve feature which allows for increased speed of the blade as necessary. Running the mower at the conserve setting prolongs battery pack duration per charge.

  • Publication number: 20080285258
    Abstract: In one embodiment the instant invention combines a post having a light at its top and a heater in its middle. In one embodiment, the post has a cabinet below the heater. The cabinet may contain the fuel source of the invention so that the heater may be easily portable. In one embodiment, a wind shield protects the heater so that the heat source will not be extinguished. In one embodiment, the light and the heater have separate controls and are separately operable.

  • Publication number: 20080272109
    Abstract: In one embodiment the instant invention combines a table and a heater in one device. The heater contains a heating element, which may use propane as a fuel source. The fuel source of the invention may be self-contained so that the heater is portable. The table may have several deflectors below and above the heater it so that the table does not get hot. The invention may also have a heat guard rail attached to the table and extending away from the table to guard against users inadvertently touching the heating area of the invention.

  • Publication number: 20080272107
    Abstract: In one embodiment the instant invention combines a table and a heater in one product having a deflector cone under the table top. This embodiment resembles a small table with a table top surface and combines the usable table top surface with a heating element, which may use propane as a fuel source. There may be one or more deflector cones stacked on each other, and they may be made from heat-reflecting material.

  • Publication number: 20080272108
    Abstract: In one embodiment the instant invention combines a table and a heater in one device. The heater allows heat to escape laterally beneath the table to warm the lower extremities of a user. The heater may use propane as a fuel source, and the fuel source may be self-contained and mountable adjacent to the heater. The device may be mounted on wheels so as to be portable. The table may have several deflectors below it and above the heater so that the table does not get hot.

  • Publication number: 20080184568
    Abstract: A power tool can be split into two ends and a pole can be inserted between the two ends. Each end of the power tool has an electrical connector that maintains electrical communication between the two ends. When the ends are separated, the extension pole can be attached to each end and each end of the pole has electrical connectors so that the two ends stay in electrical communication even with the pole in place allowing the trigger and battery to maintain electrical connectivity with the motor and implement.

  • Publication number: 20080098703
    Abstract: A hybrid electric lawnmower is described which includes a first and a second electric motor operating blades and the ability to drive the motors from either 120 VAC line voltage or from a battery pack. There is a user selectable power selection switch for switching between DC or AC power and also a boost and conserve feature which allows for increased speed of the blade as necessary. Running the mower at the conserve setting prolongs battery pack duration per charge. Power supply and control systems allow the user to select operation of the motors in either series or parallel configuration depending on the power source.
