Patent number: 11365968Abstract: A level indicator for a telescopic sight can comprise a lower clamp member including a first end defining a threaded aperture and a second end defining a cylindrical head, and an upper clamp member including a first end defining an access hole and a second end defining a socket in which the cylindrical head is receivable. The upper clamp member is rotatable about the cylindrical head to form between the respective first ends of the clamp members a gap through which the telescopic sight is receivable into a space defined between the upper and lower clamp members. A level housing in which a level is received can extend from either clamp member. A single threaded fastener is receivable in the threaded aperture through the access hole to secure the upper clamp member to the lower clamp member around the telescopic sight.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2021Date of Patent: June 21, 2022Assignee: FLATLINE OPS, INC.Inventors: Charles A.

Publication number: 20180094767Abstract: An aiming device comprises a base plate, a top plate, a pivot assembly, a pivot groove, and first and second adjustment systems. The pivot assembly connects the top plate to the base plate for rotation about a first pivot axis. The pivot groove is formed in the top plate to allow deformation of at least a portion of the top plate relative to the base plate about a second pivot axis. The first adjustment system causes relative movement between the top plate and the base plate relative about the first pivot axis. The second adjustment system causes relative movement between at least a portion of the top plate and the bottom plate about the second pivot axis.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 5, 2017Publication date: April 5, 2018Inventor: Charles A.

Patent number: 8926324Abstract: A system for reconditioning a dental implant in situ comprising a buffer member, a drive member, abrasive material, and a sleeve member. The sleeve member moves between first and second positions relative to the buffer member. The buffer member is in an open configuration when the sleeve member is in the first position. The sleeve member holds the buffer member in a closed configuration when the sleeve member is in the second position. The buffer member is rotated such that the plurality of fingers of the buffer member cause the abrasive material to remove at least a portion of the texture layer on the textured portion of implant outer surface of the second implant portion.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2013Date of Patent: January 6, 2015Inventors: Curtis K. Wade, Charles A. McCoy, II

Patent number: 8529259Abstract: A system for reconditioning a dental implant in situ has a buffer member and a drive member. The buffer member is operable in an open configuration in which the buffer member may be placed over a portion of the implant and a closed configuration in which the buffer member is in contact with the portion of the implant. The drive member is adapted to engage the buffer member such that rotation of the drive member is transferred to the buffer member. Rotation of the drive member with the drive member engaged the buffer member and the buffer member in the closed configuration causes rotation of the buffer member such that the buffer member abrades at least a portion of the surface of the implant.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 2011Date of Patent: September 10, 2013Inventors: Curtis K.

Patent number: 5803425Abstract: A wall hanging device comprising a backing plate having a front surface and first and second rear surfaces formed on a slot defining structure. First and second slot portions are defined between the front surface and the first and second rear surfaces. The slot portions are spaced from each other to increase friction between a cord attached to a framed work and the device. The device has a reduced dimension portion located between the first and second rear surfaces that allows the device to be separated into first and second portions. The device can be used in a first mode in which the device is left whole and employed to hang a single framed work, a second mode in which the device is separated into two portions and employed to hang a single relatively large framed work, or a third mode in which the device is separated into two portions and employed to hang first and second relatively small framed works.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 1997Date of Patent: September 8, 1998Inventor: Charles A.
