Abstract: A finger-operated page turning device for stacked sheets, with methods, apparatus for forming the device as sets offset voids or notches in alternating pages of a stack. The device is operated by simple movements of the thumb and/or fingers of a user's one hand while holding the stack in a curved configuration in the user's other hand. The apparatus includes rotary cutting machines for web sheet material, as well as both computer controlled and hand punches for individual sheets.

Abstract: A container having an inner volume and an outer surface having symmetrical arched track pairs on opposite sides of the container extending from an intersection at the top of the product function orifice to the bottom of the flattened support base of the container joined with a matched pair of half hollow, arching, combination split cap and handle components arched to match and slidably engage the arched track pairs on opposite sides of the container in order to form a product container, cap and handle combination that operate together when placed in the palm, fingers and thumb of a human being to slidably open and close with alternating hand grip pressure on the base or the top of the combination split cap and handles which may also automatically activate and deactivate the product function of one of the variety of products that could be located inside this type of container.

Abstract: An improved VTOL aircraft or flying car mechanism that utilizes counter-rotating blades (18) spinning inside a duct (14) causing varying speeds and volumes of atmosphere to pass across an exposed plurality of wing shaped lift generating airfoils, referred to as sucked flaps (36), at an opening in that duct (70). The volumes of atmosphere will then pass through to a lift amplifying, turbulence reducing, radial, spiral airflow generator (68) and then into thrust vector airfoils (26), which will then pass through the duct (70) again as it forms a circular path (72) back to the sucked flaps (36), where it is then re-circulated. The air pressure flowing over the top of the airfoils is reduced relative to the air pressure below the airfoils causing relatively large amounts of lift to be generated to overcome the force of gravity.

Abstract: An innovative pop-up food tray for combination meals to function as a lap or seat mounted support for the typical sandwich, drink cup and French fry container related to eating drive-in fast-food while operating an vehicle, which includes the features of a pair of automatic pop-out food tray support legs that position the tray in a passenger seat retained by the seat belt or in the drivers lap, a multiple spring cam mechanism for accommodating a wide variety of drink cup sizes, providing a fold out panel that catches spilled food particles while eating seated in a moving vehicle, a foldable condiment serving tub, a fold out cover that contains the used food containers for convenient disposal, punch out game pieces, a random number spinner wheel and a wide variety of games printed on the tray.

Abstract: The present invention provides a lightweight and inexpensive portable desk useful as a support for an article, a book, a magazine, a lap-top computer, a drawing, a photograph, a painting, writing utensils, and the like. The portable desk comprises just two integral components, a desk member and a leg member. Some unique features of the portable desk of the present invention include: 1) a capacity to vary the tilt angle according to the needs of a particular user and work setting and 2) the leg member serves as a base to support the desk member and includes a projection that allows for efficient storage/transportation of the portable desk. Thus, the portable desk of provides several working configuration at various inclinations and can be assembled in a securely connected compact storage/transportation configuration.

Abstract: A fan assembly includes a circular first array of first fan blades; a first primary ring member supportively connecting inner extremities of the first blades about a fan axis, respective end extremities of at least a majority of the first blades defining inside and outside diameters of the array, the first blades being oriented for producing a primary axial fluid flow between the inside and outside diameters in response to rotation of the first ring member, the first ring member extending between the inside and outside diameters. A second primary ring member connects outer extremities of the first blades, the first blades in combination with the first ring member defining a generally circular opening about the fan axis.

Abstract: A modular storage cabinet for electronic components which includes at least one base having front back and opposite side walls. Each base side wall includes a coacting top and bottom fastener. A plurality of stackable side bars wherein each side bar includes an elongated wall portion having interior and exterior faces and coacting top and bottom fasteners on each wall portion. The bottom fasteners are adapted to engage with the top fasteners of a base or side bar for stackably supporting the side bar in registered relation thereon and the top fasteners being engagable with bottom fasteners of a base or side bar for stackably supporting the last mentioned base or sidebar thereon. Any selected number of side bars may be stacked on each of opposite side walls of a base for defining the spacing between adjacent stacked bases.
