Abstract: An apparatus for increasing the fuel efficiency of a vehicle is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a deflector configured to attach to a front bumper of the vehicle, the deflector comprising a first surface area facing towards the vehicle when the deflector is attached to the vehicle, the first surface area being a substantially rectangle shape, the first surface area having a width, a height and a vertical axis, the vertical axis substantially bisecting the width of the first surface area, a second surface area facing away from the vehicle when the deflector is attached to the vehicle, the second surface area being a substantially concave shape with respect to the vertical axis, and a recessed well configured to align with a hole on the front bumper of the vehicle.

Abstract: An apparatus for increasing the fuel efficiency of a vehicle is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a bladder forming a deflector to attach to a front bumper of the vehicle to divert air around the vehicle. The deflector works to reduce the drag forces on the vehicle's front bumper by promoting more streamline or laminar air flow around the body of the vehicle. Such drag force reduction translates into greater vehicle fuel efficiency.

Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed especially configured and adapted for mooring a floating dock to an inboard mooring pile—a pile positioned within and extending through the top deck of a floating dock—. The apparatus minimizes damage to both dock and mooring piles caused by changes in tide, waves, wake and other water disturbances while, simultaneously, adding stability to the floating dock—especially in regarding to listing—. The apparatus is comprised of a cylindrical sleeve which is coaxially applied to a mooring pile, a dock mounted mooring bracket comprised of a base plate which connects to the sleeve mounted upon the pile via at least one “U” shaped arm. The arm, in turn, extends, and is mounted upon a vertical planar portion of the base plate and is disposed in a parallel relation to the top surface of the floating dock. An inner, semi-circular portion of the “U” shaped arm engages selected and parallel circumferential grooves formed in the outer surface of the sleeve.

The apparatus is comprised of a cylindrical sleeve which is coaxially applied to a mooring pile, a dock mounted mooring bracket comprised of a base plate which connects to the sleeve mounted upon the pile via at least two “U” shaped arms which are disposed in a parallel, spaced-apart relation which engage selected and parallel circumferential grooves formed in the outer surface of the sleeve. The base plate, in turn, is affixed to a structurally sound portion of a dock such as a horizontally disposed plate.

Abstract: A mooring pole line attachment device is disclosed comprised of a buoyant base, cylindrical sleeve and at least one line engagement means. The buoyant base includes an outer cover, inner coil and is filled with a buoyant material. The base also includes a central bore therethrough having a diameter sufficient to receive the cylindrical sleeve therewithin and to allow the base to be affixed to the sleeve so that inferior termini of both base and sleeve align. The cylindrical sleeve is a tubular structure having a central bore of a sufficient diameter to allow placement of the device upon a mooring pole and to allow for sliding thereupon. The sleeve includes parallel, circumferential rings and grooves utilized as attachment points for mooring ropes. The device is placed upon a mooring pole and, due to its buoyancy, floats and thereby adjusts its position upon the pole in accordance with changes in water level.
