  • Publication number: 20240093797
    Abstract: A valve assembly with a spring retention assembly including an elongated cylinder portion having an open threaded end and a closed end and an elongated piston portion having a free end and a threaded tab end configured to thread through the open threaded end and, thereby, be slideably captured in the cylinder portion. A spring couples to the body portion and the piston portion to provide a force to urge the body portion and the piston away from one another, wherein the closed end and the free end are similarly shaped so that the spring retention assembly can be reversibly mounted to a valve member that can also be reversibly mounted.

  • Publication number: 20140043837
    Abstract: The lighting system for use with thermally-insulated receptacles comprises a replaceable lid, a light source, and a power source. The lighting system further comprises an additional layer of material covering the light source and power source to limit exposure to moisture and to limit contact with the items stored within the thermally-insulated receptacle. The lighting system for use with thermally-insulated receptacles is configured to be used as safety equipment to signal others when the user is in distress. The lighting system for use with thermally-insulated receptacles is configured to be used with stand-alone, thermally-insulated receptacles or with thermally-insulated receptacles integrally formed in or on land vehicle or water craft.

  • Patent number: 7458899
    Abstract: A putter training apparatus and method of use are provided. In one form, a putter training apparatus includes a putter head generally formed as a mallet attached to a standard golf shaft. The putter head includes an opening through the vertical distance of the putter head, generally centered in the putter head. The putter head further includes a standard golf ball, generally centered within the opening. The golf ball is attached to an extension and retraction system comprising two spherical seats inserted in the heel side and toe side of the opening and two ligaments connecting the spherical seats to the golf ball. The extension and retraction system allows the golf ball to extend from the opening during use, and remain visible to the user through the opening, as long as the user employs a smooth, in line, and in tempo putting stroke.
