  • Publication number: 20080066393
    Abstract: A modular construction system consisting of a plurality of multifunction connectors or multifunction hinges joining together a plurality of polyhedral panel components having edge connector engaging means resulting in a spring tensioned, automatic parabolic, self-aligning, perpendicular snap-in, parallel slide out, planar angle tolerant, rotational angle tolerant, toe-in angle tolerant, toe-out angle tolerant, easy-in/hard-out, dual reverse curl linear barb, multi-planar, centerline pivoting, centerline friction, dual edge sealing, pre-stressed assembly creating groups of connected polyhedron modules forming a virtually unlimited variety of domes, arches, spheres, cylinders, cubes, trusses, walls, roofs, hinges, doors, windows, columns, beams, bridges, frames, vaults, fixtures, enclosures, shelters, partitions, toys, covers, sculptures, containers, stairs or other polyhedral structures, by hand, without the use of tools using only seconds of construction time per module.

  • Publication number: 20080066392
    Abstract: An innovative variable floorplan shelter for previously unbuildable types of land that allows the freedom to change the sizes and/or the shapes and/or the number of rooms within the shelter utilizing movable walls that offer choice of transparent, translucent or opaque walls for a variety of privacy levels. The innovative new shelter has an enhanced speed of construction based upon mass produced, modular components with over 80% of the components being relatively lightweight allowing the carrying and assembly of components by hand by unskilled labor in a reduced period of time. The new shelter offers the innovative function of being able to add or subtract floor space and/or change the overall shape of that floor space at any time.

  • Publication number: 20080058604
    Abstract: The present invention is a less painful and faster device and method for delivering a baby, which gently and safely opens the birth canal and cervix, forming an expanding tunnel, which enlarges over a period of time, to become large enough in diameter for the baby's head and body to slide out of, for easier, quicker childbirth.

  • Publication number: 20080058691
    Abstract: A bullet plug gunshot wound first aid device (BulletPLUG) that can be scaled in size to insert into a bullet wound, transform from a rolled cylinder of durable flexible clear material into an expanding tunnel of clear unrolled material to open the hole from a bullet wound to expose the bullet's location at the end of the tunnel and provide a clear, light illuminated, open tunnel to facilitate removal of the bullet, while a local coagulant coating on the outside surface of the tunnel stops the bleeding of the bullet wound into the bullet hole, while a powerful local anesthetic reduces the pain of the wound. The current invention also provides an Open Operation (OpenO) device that spreads open an incision to aid in a surgical operation by providing a clear, light illuminated, open tunnel to facilitate sub-dermal access, while a local coagulant coating on the outside surface of the tunnel reduces the bleeding of the incision, while a local anesthetic reduces the pain of the incision.

  • Publication number: 20080058605
    Abstract: The present invention is a more effective and functional device and method for opening of the vagina for examination and treatment of the cervix and viewing the vaginal lining during a gynecological exam, which gently and safely opens the vagina, forming an expanding clear tunnel, which enlarges to display a 360 degree view of the vaginal lining and provides a mirror to offer an additional angle of view of the cervix for improved gynecological diagnosis and treatment.

  • Publication number: 20040244545
    Abstract: A tool handle with crawling traction for the human fist and support for the human body in a hands and knees crawling position and use of the fingers and thumb while holding the tool in a active position, ready for use. The tool handle also provides support and traction for the human body in horizontal, diagonal and vertical tool positions. The tool handle also provides multiple hand positions within a handle channel for instant hand repositioning without risk of losing control of the tool.

  • Patent number: 5947447
    Abstract: A service jack includes a mirror attached to the jack's lift arm adjacent the jack's saddle so as to be able to provide a continuous reflected image for the jack operator as the lift arm is moved from its lowered position to its raised position of the sector of space above the saddle which includes a selected lift point for a vehicle being raised. A method for utilizing a service jack of this type includes the steps of positioning the jack with the lift arm in its lowered position adjacent the vehicle in the vicinity of the selected lift point, locating the selected lift point as a reflected image in the mirror, and moving the jack while elevating the lift arm so as to maintain the selected lift point as a reflected image in the mirror until the saddle engages the selected lift point.
