Abstract: This invention will protect creatures in buildings from deadly carbon monoxide gases emitted from various devices such as home heating systems, hot water heaters, leaky chimneys, stoves, cooking grilles and automobiles. It is designed to automatically remove carbon monoxide from buildings when dangerous levels have been detected. It will work independently or in conjunction with other carbon monoxide detection systems. For example: If an automobile has been intentionally, unintentionally or unsuspectedly started in an attached garage; the system will receive a message indicating the dangerous level of carbon monoxide, and automatically begin exhausting the carbon monoxide from the building, while supplying fresh air from outside. The system will not stop exhausting until reset, and would work in conjunction with alarms. For owner unoccupied buildings, pets would be spared harm from carbon monoxide gases. This system can be independently installed, or integrated within the building ventilation system.

Abstract: The present invention is a game and table for playing table tennis with six players simultaneously. Each side of the table includes a pair of lobes formed by angled edges, having arcuate edges and being arranged on either side of a central region that defines a playing surface upon which a central player or center plays. Wingmen stand behind the arcuate edges and play on either side of the center.

Abstract: My invention is unique in that there is currently no device currently incorporated in automobiles, trains, planes, trucks, or vessels that automatically or manually provides occupants and/or cargo weight to the person(s) requiring such information. My invention incorporates a weighing system (digital or analog), in a transportation vehicle or vessel, that automatically or manually provides occupant(s) and/or cargo weight to the person(s) requiring such information for safety, law enforcement, personal, or any other use. For example: A manufactured Pick-up truck would offer the option of the owner(s) to automatically and/or manually, determine the weight of cargo and/or occupants, through digital and/or analog interpretation.

Abstract: An oil slick sampling apparatus and method wherein a substantially annular hoop-like frame adapted to float on water and surround the slick, has an inner annular surface coacted with a surface active material which functions by spreading to compress the area of the oil slick. According to one embodiment the frame is hollow and has one or more openings to collect the oil slick as it is compressed by the inwardly spreading area of the surface active coating; according to a second embodiment the frame is impervious and the slick is compressed by the surface active material inwardly toward a central area thereof whereat suitable collecting means is located to collect the oil slick for further analysis.
