  • Patent number: 9132315
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a multifunctional arms and wrists trainer which is a bar assembled by a shaft and two handles. An interior of the bar is provided with an elastomer formed by a torsion spring or torsion leaf in a shape of ?. When two handles are held with two hands of a user and twisted against each other, muscle groups of arms are exercised by torsion resulted from the elastomer when the handles are twisted leftward and rightward. A handle bracket inside the handle can be also connected with a rotating dish which can be used as a roller for exercising abdominal muscles, in addition to being used to exercise the muscle groups of the arms by twisting the rotating dishes at a side.

  • Publication number: 20150246261
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a handheld push-up device with buffering and assisting functions including a base, an elastic unit and an extension rod. The base is installed with the elastic unit and the extension rod is installed on the elastic unit. When an exerciser uses both hands to press the extension rod downward, the direct impact force carried by the wrists can be reduced by the elastic unit, which avoids sport injuries and acts as a supportive force to a beginner or a person with an inferior physical strength.

  • Patent number: 8347882
    Abstract: A diving snorkel-mounted water stopper includes a sleeve unit defining a plurality of circumferentially spaced receiving chambers and a plurality of separated air valve openings corresponding to the tops of the receiving chambers; a ring-shaped housing externally located around the sleeve unit and having a plurality of air intakes formed at positions separately corresponding to the receiving chambers and the air valve openings; a plurality of float units separately disposed in the receiving chambers to normally locate below the air valve openings, and a cap closed onto a top of the ring-shaped housing. The separated air valve openings are independently controllable to open or close by the float units arranged in one-to-one correspondence thereto. When one of the air valve openings is closed, other air valve openings are not affected and air from above water surface can still be supplied via the remaining open air valve openings to a diver.

  • Publication number: 20110167643
    Abstract: A versatile survival knife includes a handle internally provided with a blade receiving slot; and a blade having a pointed tip and a flat tip separately provided at two opposite ends thereof. The blade is removably connected to the handle by selectively inserting the pointed-tipped end or the flat-tipped end into the blade receiving slot to provide a survival knife with a flat-tipped blade or a pointed-tipped blade, respectively. The blade is further lengthwise provided on a body thereof with a straight row of spaced length-adjusting holes. The blade can be connected at different length-adjusting holes to the handle to adjust a length of the blade that is projected from the handle, so as to provide a long-blade or a short-blade survival knife according to different functions to be performed with the survival knife.

  • Publication number: 20080290890
    Abstract: A testing system for testing performance of a number of image sensor modules includes a data transforms module, a number of selection switches and a testing processor. The data transform module has a pin assembly corresponding to the input/output pin assembly. The pin assembly includes a first pin and a second pin. The selection switches are configured for selecting the high level signal or the low level signal and providing the signal level to the control signal pins of the electronic assemblies. The testing processor is electronically connected to the data transform module and configured for processing data from the data transform module. In testing, the image sensor modules coupled together through a base do not need to be separated from each other, thus facilitating the next process. Therefore, the failure rate of the image sensor modules is decreased and cost is reduced.

  • Publication number: 20020144409
    Abstract: A versatile survival knife includes a blade and a handle into which the blade is detachably inserted. The blade is provided at one end with a pointed tip and at the other end a flat tip. When the blade is inserted into the handle at the end with the pointed tip, the survival knife appears in the form of a flat-tipped knife, and when the blade is inserted into the handle at the end with the flat tip, the survival knife appears in the form of a pointed-tipped knife. The blade is also provided on its body with a line of length-adjusting holes. By inserting the blade into the handle with one of the length-adjusting holes aligned with a fixing hole on the handle, a length of the blade exposed from the handle can be changed into longer or shorter to meet actual need. Thus, up to four different forms are available from only one single survival knife to conveniently perform different functions.

  • Patent number: 6394863
    Abstract: A fin has a blade provided with a hole and a one-way movable flap having a fixing edge connected to an inner margin of the blade and a moving edge overlapping an outer margin of the blade to close the hole on the blade. When a diver alternately sweeps two legs up and down under water, the movable flap on the fin worn on the upward swept leg is pushed downward by the resistance from the water to open the hole. The same resistance vanishes when the hole is opened, allowing the diver to sweep the leg upward with reduced effort. On the other hand, the flap on the fin worn on the downward swept leg is pushed upward by the resistance from the water to close the hole, allowing the diver to kick water more powerfully and advance more quickly.

  • Patent number: 6276978
    Abstract: A fin is formed of a foot pocket that has a slit extended from one side to another side of the foot pocket along a joint of the foot pocket and a blade of the fin, so that a front part of the foot pocket forms a movable protective flap. The movable protective flap allows a diver to easily push it open with toes and to exert strength via instep against the foot pocket during kicking water. The movable protective flap provides sufficient space for toes to move in the foot pocket without being compressed while protects the diver's foot against rocks, coral reefs and the like and therefore allows the diver to kick water more powerfully. The movable protective flap also eliminates hard and sharp edge of the foot pocket to protect the diver's foot against cut, bruised or swollen instep that is in contact with the foot pocket.
