Abstract: A floating debris remover having an operator station for directing debris into a debris inlet and a power manipulateable debris scoop for on-the-go separation of the debris from the water through elevation of the debris scoop with the debris remover having an operator station to allow an onboard operator to retrieve and deposit debris at a waste disposal site solely through operator manipulation of the debris scoop.

Abstract: Safety ladders to provide egress from water to a dock or boat or the like are disclosed. Safety ladders in accordance with the present invention are mountable to a structure, upwardly collapsible to a first storage configuration, and downwardly extendible to a second climbing configuration.

Abstract: A playground apparatus comprising at least three separate elongated plank extending in a generally horizontally spaced end-to-end relationship, at least one pivotal support member for pivotally supporting each of the elongated plank in vertically spaced relationship above a support surface for vertical pivotal movement of opposite ends of the elongated planks, and at least two resiliently flexible living hinges each providing a void-free connection between adjacent ends of the elongated planks to eliminate a pinch point while providing for simultaneous vertical movement of said elongated planks.

Abstract: A child's amusement device having a torsible beam with the torsible beam having a child-support surface for a child to sit or stand on with pivotal supports spaced about and supporting the periphery of the torsible beam, with the torsible beam having sufficient rigidity to remain in a fixed position when no external force is applied to the child-support surface, and the torsible beam having sufficient resiliency so that when an external force deflects the torsible beam, the torsible beam flexes and twists in response thereto, causing the torsible beam to oscillate about the pivotal supports and thereby provide an amusement ride for a child thereon.
