Abstract: A cutting device to sever a cable or the like. The cutting device can be used to sever the cable or the like in relatively inaccessible locations, such as in the ocean. The cutting device can include one or more springs that can be loaded to facilitate the deployment of a cutting tool to sever the cable or the like. The cutting device can include a lever than can be rotated between a locked configuration impeding deployment of the cutting tool and an unlocked configuration permitting deployment of the cutting tool. A linkage can retain the lever in the locked configuration. The linkage can be compromised, permitting the movement of the lever into the unlocked configuration.

Abstract: A vehicle lamp is provided with an upper light source and a lower light source spaced apart from the upper light source in a height direction. A reflector has a central optical axis extending a forward direction and oriented between the upper and lower light source. The reflector has first and second arrays of reflective surfaces. The first array of first reflective surfaces reflects light emitted from the upper light source in a first light pattern in the direction of the central optical axis. The second array of second reflective surfaces reflecting light emitted from the lower light source in a second light pattern in the direction of the central optical axis. At least one of the first reflective surfaces is oriented between two second reflective surfaces in the height direction.

Abstract: Kneed-A-Hand is a practical device strap worn over the knee that enables its user to lift/raise their leg(s). Kneed-A-Hand measures approximately fourteen inches in length and three quarters inch in width. This strap comprises a main strap that is circular in design to keep the knee at the center. It is manufactured of lightweight, breathable material such as cotton or spandex. The proximal strap lies above the knee and contains a secondary hand strap for lifting the knee. Kneed-A-Hand secures to the knee with a side strap that wraps around the back of the knee and fastens with Velcro or other similar hook and loop fastener. To fit both average and large knees, the loop part of the fastener extends to cover approximately seven inches and the potion cover approximately four to five inches. When wearing Kneed-A-Hand the user simply pulls the hand strap to lift their leg.

Abstract: A furniture member actuation mechanism includes first and second side plates with polymeric inserts each having an elongated slot each receiving a first or second pin. First and second seat back support elements are provided, the first element rotatably coupled to the first side plate and rotatably linked to the first pin and the second element rotatably coupled to the second side plate and rotatably linked to the second pin. First and second leg rest support arms are each connected by a pantograph linkage set to a drive rod disposed through the side plates. A rearward force applied by an occupant to the support elements rotates them rearward with the first and second pins sliding within the elongated slots. An occupant's weight when the rearward force is removed returns the support elements to a pre-rotation position. A cam adjusts a weight a leg rest can hold.

Abstract: Process for the preparation of radiohalogenated radiopharmaceuticals by an electrophillic substitution, preferably halogenodestannylation reactions, by the reaction of an organometallic substituted precursor, preferably a trialkyl tin substituted precursor, with a radioactive halogen, preferably a radioactive iodine, astatine or bromine composition, in the presence of a catalytically effective amount of an anion selected from the group consisting of bromide, chloride and nitrite anion in an acid medium with an oxidizing agent.
