  • Publication number: 20120297704
    Abstract: An alternative energy structure is disclosed, defined by an upper section and a lower section, wherein at least part of the upper section is solar transparent. A panel track traverses the upper section and a counterweight track traverses the lower section. The tracks are non-horizontal. A solar panel is movably connected to the panel track, and a counterweight is movably connected to the counterweight track such that the panel can traverse the upper section and the counterweight can traverse the lower section. The solar panel and the counterweight are connected to one another by a first connection mechanism and an opposite, second connection mechanism. A drive motor is connected to at least one of: the solar panel, the counterweight, the first connection mechanism and the second connection mechanism, to drive the solar panel from a first position to an opposite, second position to follow the sun.

  • Patent number: 7109884
    Abstract: The system includes a stop sign device, a wave signal transmitter, a signal receiver and a warning signal. The wave signal transmitter is located at the stop sign device, that is it is near it, or is attached to it. The transmitter projects a wave signal outwardly in a direction from the front of the stop sign device, that is toward oncoming traffic that is expected to comply with the stop sign device. The wave signal of the transmitter has a predetermined frequency and transmission strength, and may be radio or IR or other wave signal. The signal receiver is adapted to receive a wave signal of the same frequency of said wave signal of the transmitter, so that when it is near the transmitter, it will receive that signal.

  • Patent number: 6565241
    Abstract: The present invention is an improvement to any motorized vehicle for human transport having an electrical system with at least one headlight. The improvement includes a flashlight base to which a headlight is connected, referred to herein as the flash-headlight. The base and flash-headlight are removably mounted on the vehicle, and the base has a rechargeable energy pack, e.g., a cell or battery pack for powering the flash-headlight when removed from the vehicle. The base has an on/off switch operable when the base and flash-headlight are removed from the vehicle. There is a disconnectable powering electrical contact connected from the vehicle electrical system to the flash-headlight for powering and operation thereof when the flash-headlight is not removed from the vehicle, and adapted for disconnection from the flash-headlight for removal of base and flash-headlight from the vehicle.

  • Patent number: 6034591
    Abstract: The present invention is an alarm clock device which programmably and automatically coordinates the movement of one or more electric toy trains, or the like. The present invention alarm clock preferably triggers the movement of an electric toy train when a pre-set alarm time is reached. The alarm clock device comprises at least one base that defines an elongated substantially non-linear track for regulating the movement of a toy train. The traveling speed of the train is preferably regulated by a voltage varying device, such as a transformer, that is attached to the track and also coupled to a manually adjustable speed controlling member within the alarm clock. The movement of the train is preferably accompanied by applicable audible sounds that correspond therewith. The duration of movement may be programmed manually and may be adjusted in any variety of ways.
