Abstract: Handle grip are configured to interface to the end of a bar allowing a user to employ the bar for motion, exercise, stretching or other activity. For example, the handle grips may slip onto the bar under force. The handle grips include a grip section, configured to provide a surface the user can grab. Accordingly, the grip surface may include features that increase the effective friction coefficient. The handle grip also includes an end section configured to react both axial and lateral loads applied by the user via the grip section. The bar can be sectioned, making storage and transport easier. Accordingly, the sectioned bar can be assembly to provide the desired length of exercise bar.

Abstract: The disclosure provides methods for treating, preventing, and reducing the incidence of opioid-induced respiratory depression, opioid-induced apnea, and opioid overdose in patients by administering buprenorphine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

Abstract: An exercise system may function as a jump-rope and a resistance band. The system includes an elastic elongate element such as an elastic rope, a first handle, and a second handle. The elastic elongate element includes a first end, a second end opposite the first end, and a first rest length extending between the first end and the second end. The first handle is arranged at the first end and is configured to engage the first end of the elastic elongate element. The second handle is arranged at the second end and is configured to engage the second end of the elastic elongate element. The system is configured to achieve a first configuration, wherein the first handle and the second handle are arranged in-line with the elastic elongate element, and a second configuration, wherein the first handle and the second handle are arranged transverse to the elastic elongate element.

Abstract: A cable includes an inner conductor, an inner dielectric, and a guard conductor, where the inner dielectric is between the inner conductor and the guard conductor. The cable also includes an outer dielectric, and a shield conductor, where the outer dielectric is between the guard conductor and the shield conductor. The cable further includes an additional layer of material between the outer dielectric and the shield conductor of suitable composition for reducing triboelectric current generation between the outer dielectric and the shield conductor to less than that which would occur were the outer dielectric and the shield conductor to directly adjoin each other.

Abstract: A toy vehicle for a child includes a track and roller drive train for propelling the vehicle. Each of a pair of pedal arms is pivotally mounted at its forward end and has a split track mounted at the rear end thereof which rides on a roller mounted on either side of the axle. As the pedal arms are reciprocated by a rider, the tracks drive the rollers and axle with the gap between ramps of the track allowing the track to straddle the axle at the bottom of each stroke. The track may be generally curvilinear, or compound angled to balance the torque generated by each stroke in either the forward or rearward direction, and to also provide a smoother driving action through substantially 180.degree. of axle rotation with each stroke.

Abstract: A three-wheeled scooter includes a reciprocating treadle drive which a rider may use to propel the scooter in either the forward or rearward direction. The treadle drive includes a pair of treadles having their rear ends mounted to crank portions of a rear crank drive axle and their forward ends supported by rollers from a bar track having a generally flattened portion therein along with an inclined portion. Movement is achieved by a rider's shifting of his weight alternately from one treadle to the other as each treadle rotates into a driving orientation. The treadle drive is characterized by maintaining a driving relationship between at least one treadle and the crank axle at all times to thereby eliminate any "dead spots".

Abstract: A tricycle or other similar vehicle has an improved drive mechanism utilizing a pair of pedals, each of which has an associated cam and cam follower such that as the pedals are reciprocated the cam followers ride along the cams to rotate a drive axle and propel the vehicle. A shift mechanism permits realignment of the cam followers and cams to thereby change the direction of movement of the vehicle as the pedals are reciprocated. The drive mechanism and shift may be mounted to the rear wheels or, in an alternate embodiment, mounted to the front wheel of the vehicle.
