  • Patent number: 7954906
    Abstract: A wheel quick release system for a bicycle or other wheeled vehicle where the wheel can be easily removed by a manual operation on only one side of the wheel hub but is prevented from unexpected separation at all times while engaged with the wheel. A laterally moving skewer mounted concentrically inside a hollow axle is equipped with a “non-touch” nut on one end and is spring loaded toward a quick release cam on the other end thereby always urging the nut against the adjacent dropout. To remove the wheel, the quick release cam is operated and the quick release side assembly is pushed axially inward and a safety mechanism is operated and held in this position while the wheel is removed from the fork dropouts. When the wheel is again inserted into the wheel fork, the skewer automatically locks onto the dropouts, and subsequently if the quick release cam is inadvertently left open by the user, the wheel will be somewhat loose but will remain safely inserted in the wheel mounts.

  • Publication number: 20080113368
    Abstract: A set of relationships using properties of the DNA molecule and its hydrogen bridge electron cycloid motion tied to the Fibonacci-Lucas series concepts and a complex number Argand diagram to provide a computer-implemented set of numbers to describe the number of DNA molecular bases traveling away from a starting point, the number of DNA molecular divisions away from the starting point molecule, and the triplet letter selection occurring at the new location.

  • Patent number: 7296813
    Abstract: An apparatus and method of securing a bicycle handlebar stem to the front wheel fork steerer tube with handlebar height adjustability and rotation of the handlebar and stem for easy storage. A steering assembly is provided where the handlebar stem is moveably fastened to the front fork steerer tube using a manually operated primary locking device and requiring a secondary action to allow for movement in the form of either height adjustment, or rotation, or both. The connection between the handlebar stem and the front fork steerer tube can be on the interior or the exterior of the front fork steerer tube. With the interior connection, the steerer tube can be elongated to extend above the top of the headset bearings where it is fitted with a collar for clamping onto the internally mounted stem. The handlebar stem and fork steerer tube are fitted with corresponding octagonal or other cross sectional shapes, or a safety tracking system.

  • Publication number: 20040050202
    Abstract: A steering assembly for connecting the front wheel and handlebar of a bicycle or other wheeled vehicle to the frame. A steerer tube is connected to the front wheel and passing through a head tube on the frame. A stem connects the steerer tube to the handlebar, and bearings on the top and bottom of the head tube which allow the steerer tube to pivot axially inside the head tube. The top of the steerer tube extends above the bearings and is slotted and fitted with a quick release clamping device which allows the stem to be raised and lowered inside the steerer tube. The sides of the stem are channeled such that the stem cannot rotate axially inside the steerer tube and the upper portion of the stem can be lifted out of the steerer tube, then rotated, and folded down to the side of the bicycle frame during storage.

  • Publication number: 20020143471
    Abstract: The inventive method woks by assigning complex numbers to a rearranged format of the genetic code, this format using the last codon letters as the organizing force. These numbers verify the genetic code mathematically and are tied to the behavior of the hydrogen atoms on the hydrogen bridge between DNA strands. This behavior is explained in part by a formula for modeling the wave behavior of the DNA molecule and the holographic behavior of the DNA molecule as an information-storing material.

  • Patent number: 5135246
    Abstract: A foldable tandem bicycle employs three separate frames joined at concentric seat tubes. The frames have quick release clamps to lock the frames into an open rigid orientation. The center frame has several configurations, unisex one having a closed complete frame with one diagonal brace and a second one with a pair of diagonal braces to eliminate the need for a top tube. A third embodiment employs in-line intermediate members.
