Abstract: A dual-beam torque wrench with a linear display and a linear locking member is provided. The torque wrench includes a head that couples to a socket to rotate a fastener or bolt. A housing of torque wrench extends from the head to form a handle. Within the housing forming the handle are two beams: a lever beam that transmits the force from the handle to the head and a deflecting beam that couples to the head and not the handle. The deflecting beam deflects away from the lever beam to indicate that a predetermined torque has been applied. A torque adjustment assembly moves the lever beam relative to the head to set the predetermined torque, and a pin follows the linear display to indicate to the user the set predetermined torque.

Abstract: A fish stick includes a light emitting component, such as a lighted tip, near the leading end of the fish stick. The lighted tip includes a curved lens that directs some light around an attachment piece at the end of the fish stick and generally in the forward direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of the fish stick. The fish stick may be made of a phosphorescent material and stored in a lit container with an LED and reflective surfaces. The fish stick may be made of multiple rods that are threadably engaged with each other and include a spring biasing element that increases the coefficient of friction between the threads of the rods. The fish stick may also be made of multiple rods that are threadably engaged with each other via collars.

Abstract: A hard hat configured to support an AR/VR headset or goggles and associated components is provided. The hard hat does not include a front brim allowing for appropriate positioning of the AR/VR goggles relative to the hard hat. A hinged bracket is coupled to the hard hat and the AR/VR goggles to allow for movement of the AR/VR goggles. The AR/VR goggles are moveable between an in use position in which the goggles are positioned in front of a user's face and a storage position in which the goggles are positioned above or away from the user's face.

Abstract: The systems described in this disclosure can be used with a storage system to provide a platform for items and/or papers such as blueprints. A container includes a top panel that is pivotal relative to the container. The container may include additional panels that are pivotal with respect to the top panel and that rotate away from the top panel to extend the platform provided by the top panel.

Abstract: Various hard hat fan systems are provided. In a certain embodiment, fan system includes an impact absorbing layer with a channel that defines a recessed surface which extends into the impact absorbing layer away from an inner surface of a shell of a hard hat. Together, the inner surface of the shell and the recessed surface define a duct configured to provide fluid communication between an inlet of the channel and an air vent positioned along the channel. In another embodiment, fan system includes a mounting bracket with first and second cam levers which may be actuated into a locked position, and first and second channels. When in the locked position, the first and second cam levers bias the edges of a mounting ridge of the shell against the first and second channels of the mounting bracket such that the mounting bracket is retained on the shell.

Abstract: Various embodiments of a hand tool shown a wrench are provided. The wrench includes an adjustable head that allows for use within small spaces such as around plumbing fixtures. Various embodiments include a head with a fixed jaw and a moveable jaw such that a position of the moveable jaw relative to the fixed jaw is adjustable when the adjustment mechanism is actuated. In a specific embodiment, the adjustment mechanism allows a user to change the position of the head with one hand and/or a thumb.

Abstract: A lid assembly is provided that is configured to enclose a beverage within a beverage container. The lid assembly includes a lid, a lid cover, and one or more magnetically-interfacing elements that bias the lid and lid cover with respect to each other. To reduce spillage, various embodiments reduce contact between surface(s) of the lid and lid cover, and/or include a gasket the selectively seals a vent.

Abstract: A clamping tool, such as pliers, is provided. The clamping tool includes a pair of components coupled to a pair of jaws. The first component and the first jaw include a first set of teeth that engage with a second set of teeth included in the second component and second jaw. The engagement between the teeth provide a compound leverage system.
