Abstract: Systems and methods for limiting functionality of a vehicle are described. In one example, vehicle feature modules may specify vehicle behaviors and vehicle operation is limited according to the specified behaviors. Vehicle actuators may be adjusted to limit vehicle operation according to the specified vehicle behaviors. The vehicle behaviors may apply to powertrain systems, navigation systems, climate control systems, lighting systems and other vehicle systems.

Abstract: An improved fit and function mask type apparatus. The mask system incorporates a flexible outer body constructed of fabric that provides the general shape and structure of the mask. The upper portion of the mask features a three-dimensional nose pocket that is integrated into the mask and is made from a separate piece of material. This upper nose pocket structure has no seam where it contours over the nose. The material in the structure past the Apex of the nose is split and then joined together to form a seam. This seam extends downward from the contoured section and in front of the nose. The non-seamed and seamed material selectively form an enclosed three-dimensional pocket with the necessary volume, shape and contour to accommodate the nose from the Dorsal Area to the Apex of the nose. An arched shaped bendable metal structure spans the nose pocket and attaches on both sides of the nose pocket to provide adjustability for different sized and shaped noses.

Abstract: A multipurpose flashlight comprising a slotted locking donut and insert stick that can be used to start a fire. The multipurpose flashlight provides an easy way for an individual to have all the tools they will need to create a fire in a survival situation or anytime they are participating in outdoor activities.

Abstract: An automated cleaning device for dental drill bits, also called dental burrs. The cleaning device includes an enclosed cleaning compartment that houses two rotating, circular brushes. The dental burr is guided through a small opening in the cleaning compartment and forced in between the two rotating brushes. The dental burr is rotated while between the brushes and moved in and out of the brushes during the cleaning process. A switch attached to the opening in the cleaning compartment allows the brushes to start rotating when a dental burr is inserted into the compartment, and stop when the burr is removed. The device includes an electric motor that can be powered by batteries or by plugging into a traditional electrical outlet.

Abstract: A holding base system comprising a platform with an exteriorly splined post projecting therefrom and mounting means for securing the platform to a surface; an article holder having a splined inner wall on a bottom thereof to fit on and cooperate with the splined post and a top thereof shaped and constructed to secure an article to be supported, with the orientation of the supported article being determined by the relative positioning of the splined socket to the splined post.

Abstract: A mounting bracket for securing one or a pair of article holders to a land or sea craft to facilitate the carrying of articles on the craft; the mounting bracket comprising a non-circular body with opposing flat surfaces and threaded holes extending centrally through the body; a V-notch at one end of the body extending into one flat face and holes through the body at opposite sides of the V-notch and a threaded bore in the end of the body remote from the V-notch; the threaded bores being adapted to reserve a shank of an article holder; and a channel member to fit co-operably over the non-circular body and to hold a pair of spaced apart article holders, while being secured to the body member by a bolt threaded into the body member.

Abstract: An article holder having bifurcated arms extending from a common base and bendable cores within the arms that allow the arms to be bent to desired position and having resilient cushion means that will stretch and relax as necessary to provide adequate cushion means for articles placed between the arms. A stretchable cover material encases the bifurcated arms and common base and stretches and relaxes during bending of the arms.

Abstract: A long gun carrying system for all terrain vehicles that incorporates a support structure that will mount on a rear deck or rack on an ATV and that will support a channel member to receive a soft gun case. The soft gun case is attached to the channel member and the soft gun case may be removed with a gun inside, from the channel member. Alternatively, the long gun is easily removed from the soft gun case, while leaving the gun case in position on the ATV.

Abstract: An adjustable extension lever to be attached to a control lever of a vehicle such as an all-terrain vehicle, snowmobile, motorcycle or personal watercraft to extend the lever surface available to be contacted during control of the vehicle and including a bendable lever extension that will bend under a bending force greater than the operating force required to operate the vehicle control lever to insure a comfortably located thumb and/or palm engagement surface on an extender connected to and pivot able with the control lever.

Abstract: A suspended article hold down system for suspending articles such as binoculars, cameras, and eyeglasses that are commonly attached to neck straps, by shoulder straps and then providing a hold down strap to extend across such an article suspended by the shoulder straps, the hold down strap being releasably connected to ends of underarm straps having opposite ends connected to the shoulder straps through a flat spreader at the back of a user of the system.

Abstract: An article holder comprising bifurcated arms extending upwardly from a base to receive and hold articles inserted downwardly into the holder within cushioning, resilient fingers extending inwardly from the bifurcated arms to engage the inserted article and wherein the fingers have incoming engagement surfaces connected, with an air space between, to exiting engagement surfaces.

Abstract: A system for holding an article suspended by shoulder straps in front of the body of a use against undesired swinging and movement of the article while affording easy release of the article so that it can be raised for viewing, aiming and sighting and that will provide protection for the suspended article against the elements.

Abstract: A seat cushion for use on all terrain vehicles and snowmobiles made of a single piece of molded foam having a skin covering a foam core, a front portion with a curved leading edge to fit against a gas tank filler spout, outer edges hinged to bend over a vehicle seat, straps connected to the outer edges to secure the cushion to a vehicle frame or housing and an air circulating and water drainage system formed on central areas of the cushion and with foam cushion areas formed between grooves of the air circulating and water drainage system to support the bones of the buttocks of a user seated on the cushion.

Abstract: An all terrain vehicle portable radio mount having a base support with a clamping member to be attached to the handlebar of a vehicle, a connector member adjustably positioned on and secured to the base support, a cantilever support angularly adjustable with respect to the connector member and locked to prevent movement therebetween and a backing plate to receive and secure a portable radio.
