  • Patent number: 7468833
    Abstract: An ergonomic microscope (1) and a microscope carrier (2) are disclosed. The microscope encompasses a stand (3) which possesses a stand base (3a) that defines an external contour (3b). The microscope (1) is placed onto the microscope carrier (2). The microscope carrier (2) comprises a body (4) and a left and a right hand rest (6). The left and the right hand rest (6) are attached to the body (4) so as to pivot freely and independently of one another. A height adjustment of the microscope carrier (2) results in a pivoting of the hand rests (6) in such a way that their front edges (6a) rest on the bench surface (50) regardless of the height adjustment.

  • Patent number: 5816592
    Abstract: A multi-planed scooter for imaginative riding play having a deeply concave riding platform molded of lightweight polypropylene plastic or like material. The riding platform is formed by joining three sections having wide riding surfaces with tongue and groove assembly. Terminal riding surfaces include molded handle and decelerator portions. All riding surface sections have structural reinforcement channels and molded wheel assembly portions that cover the axle and minimize the risk of injury to very young riders' fingers. The youth scooter is smaller in length than higher-performance multi-planed scooters and has wheels that are lighter, larger in diameter, and wider than wheels generally used on higher-performance skateboards and scooters.
