Patent number: 11992922Abstract: A grasping tool (10) has a pair of elongate arms (20) attached via a hinge element (26). The elongate arms (20) provide gripping surfaces (28) for grasping an item therebetween. A finger engagement element (30) extends from each of the elongate arms, (20) spaced a distance from the proximal end (22). Each elongate arm (20) is generally disposed on a first axis, and each finger engagement element (30) is disposed around a second axis, such that the second axis is approximately parallel to and located below the first axis, such that the first and second axes are spaced a distance such that the pair of elongate arms (20) are positioned above the fingers of the user when the user's fingers are positioned through the finger engagement elements (30).Type: GrantFiled: April 20, 2023Date of Patent: May 28, 2024Assignee: INOOBI, INC.Inventors: Wanki Kevin Choi, Adam C.

Publication number: 20140094054Abstract: A data and charging cable includes a body portion having a form factor substantially like that of a credit card, including a slot extending from a first end of the body portion toward a second end of the body portion. The cable includes an elastomeric tongue having a proximal end pivotably attached to the first end of the body portion and a distal end removably attached to the body portion by a detent mechanism. A first plug is located at the second end of the body portion, with a first set of contacts configured to be inserted into a first electronic device. A second plug is located at the distal end of the tongue, with a second set of contacts configured to be inserted into a second electronic device. A conductive path extending between the first and second sets of contacts is configured to transmit data and electrical power.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 18, 2013Publication date: April 3, 2014Inventors: Noah M.

Patent number: 4911832Abstract: An apparatus for automatically treating a drain system to prevent or at least minimize clogging problems particularly in grease traps of the type provided in restaurants and other food preparation establishments. The apparatus includes a valve for directing fresh water into the grease trap for pretreating the trap in preparation for the injection of bioactive liquid cultures by the pump. The liquid cultures liquify and digest contaminants in the grease trap which are flushed therefrom by fresh water. The apparatus is controlled by a system which cyclically operates the apparatus in accordance with a preferred operational sequence and at adjustably variable time periods.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 1988Date of Patent: March 27, 1990Assignee: Grease Genie, Inc.Inventors: Adam C. Miller, Mitchell M. Hazar, William G. Harvey
