Abstract: They object of the present invention is an TIME MANAGEMENT SYSTEM that integrates a static barcode together with a TIME VARIABLE label referred as TIME VALUE BAR or TVB. The TVB is then linked via a database to product information that vary with time such as useful shelf life, remaining shelf life, price, identity, and expiration of the article. The information is input, stored, linked, output, and managed by a Central Processing Unit (CPU), but it is also partially available to the public via the TVB. In one of the preferred embodiments of the invention the variable bar code system is compatible with the Universal Product Code (UPC) currently in use in most retail shops. In another embodiment the TIME VALUE BAR of the present invention relates a 3D barcode with a VARIABLE TIME label effectively adding a fourth dimension to the barcode thus becoming a 4D barcode system.

Abstract: An internal nasal prosthesis of unitary construction. The prosthesis has three distinct segments, an arched medial segment and two lateral appendages on each end of the medial segment. Each appendage of this prosthesis is the mirror image of the other and is inclined at a compound angle, relative to said arched medial segment, so that each of said appendage is inclined, at an angle, into the plane of the page, of at least about 30 degrees, and at an angle, relative to the horizontal plane of the medial section, of about 90 degrees.

Abstract: A sensor leak monitor device that consists of well known elements arranged in a novel manner such that it can detect an involuntary consumption and alert a person when such is occurring. A pressure gage coupled with a timing device measures in a constant manner the internal pressure of a pipe and establishes a reference pressure. Upon the opening of any outlet of the network, the measured pressure will fall below this reference pressure value. If the measured pressure does not return to the reference pressure value within a stipulated time, it would be safe to assume that involuntary consumption is happening. Temperature is monitored and reported whenever it reaches a very low or freezing level. The device provides for audio and visual alerts to bring about the correction of the involuntary situation.

Abstract: A dental hygiene device for cleaning, flossing, brushing, massaging the space between the teeth, crowns, and under the gumline includes a combination of a first portion of flexible filament floss to convey flexibility and strength to the filament and a second portion having a thicker and oblong shape where in some preferred embodiments bristles depart from the center of said filament floss. The second portion gradually slopes from the thickness of floss up to its maximum radius approximately located in the center, then gradually down-sloping from the maximum radius in the center down to the radius of floss where the second portion is designed to provide a brushing, cleaning, gum massaging means coupled with the floss. When used said first portion allows insertion in the interdental space especially in more difficult places such as between molars or crown and it can be used as regular dental floss to massage the gums and clean said spaces.

Abstract: A device for relieving congestion in restricted nasal passages, by the dilation thereof with an internal prosthesis placed within the nasal passages of an individual. This prosthesis comprises an adjustable bow having a pair of appendages extending from each end thereof. A separate tensioning element engages complimentary features on/in the bow to limit flexure thereof, and thereby provide a counterforce to bending of the bow. Accordingly, when the bow is flexed or bent, the extent of flex or bending of the bow is constrained by the tensioning element. The combined effect of the natural recoil of the resilient bow from the distended to flat position, combined with the counter forces imparted to the bow by the tensioning element, causes each appendage on the end of the bow to exert a constant pressure within each nasal passage to maintain such passages in a relatively open position.

Abstract: An improved material packaging system includes a plurality of nested liners removably attached to each other to form a unitary liner structure and a receptacle having a circumferential attachment lip for detachably securing said unitary liner structure to said receptacle. The unitary liner structure has an elastic attachment device for detachably securing the unitary liner structure to the receptacle attachment device by expanding the elastic attachment device circumferentially, fitting the elastic attachment device over the attachment lip and into a position below the attachment lip, and releasing the elastic attachment device to permit the elastic attachment device to compressibly mate with the receptacle below the attachment lip. Each of the liners has a pull grip for gripping the liner to remove the liner from the unitary liner structure and perforations disposed between the pull grip and the elastic attachment device for tearing the liner when a tearing force is applied thereto.

Abstract: This invention relates to expiration date systems in general, and particularly to a new expiration date system (14) which employs a time release mechanism to overcome the problems inherent in expiration date systems used today.

Abstract: A leak proof safety shield/guard for a syringe is herein disclosed. The shield/guard provides for not only protection of the syringe from a damage and abuse in the storage and handling, but also protects the health care professional from contact with the used needle and any of the tissues or fluids adherent thereto. Moreover, any and all fluids that are initially contained within the syringe, or subsequently collected from a patient, are also isolated from inadvertent discharge or loss. This device achieves such objectives by providing a sealed protective guard that retains its integrity subsequent to use of the syringe. Additional enhancements to the device of this invention include a locking mechanism that prevents re-use of the syringe; and, additionally causes the syringe to be rendered physically inoperative.

Abstract: An improved material packaging system having a plurality of nested liners that are removably attached to each other to form a unitary liner structure. A receptacle having a first attachment device for detachably securing the unitary liner structure to the receptacle is set forth. The unitary liner structure has a second attachment device for detachably securing the second attachment device to the first attachment device of the receptacle. Each of the liners has a pull grip for gripping the liner to remove the liner from the unitary liner structure and perforations disposed between the pull grip and the second attachment device for tearing the liner when a tearing force is applied thereto. An uppermost liner of the plurality of liners can thus be removed from the unitary liner structure without substantially disturbing the positioning of underlying liners by gripping and pulling the pull grip of the uppermost liner to apply the tearing force to the perforations of the uppermost liner.

Abstract: A security and hurricane shutter of greater strength and stability than available shutters using blades which are longitudinally pivoted to each other. The angle between adjacent blades is adjustable to provide for greater strength and stability at smaller angles, i.e., more blades per linear foot of the shutter, at smaller angles, and larger angles using fewer blades per linear foot for shutters, such as smaller width shutters which would require fewer blades per linear foot. The shutter can use either pulleys or direct mechanical drive mechanisms. The pulley systems or direct mechanical drive mechanisms can be powered by an installed electrical motor, a portable motor, or a hand crank for shutters of smaller size or to back up the installed electrical motor in case of power failure or motor failure.
