Abstract: An apparatus for displaying filename information on a floppy disk is disclosed. The apparatus utilizes a modified floppy disk housing and a modified floppy disk drive to automatically label the floppy disk with the filenames being copied to or deleted from the disk. The modified floppy disk housing includes an apparatus for visually displaying information indicative of the data stored on the floppy disk when the floppy disk is not inserted in a floppy disk drive.

Abstract: Drinking devices include at least a drinking tube, a container lid and/or a container. The drinking tube includes a first free end located proximal a mouth of the container or the lid. At least a portion of the drinking tube, which is in or is intended to be placed in a container, is looped and is sufficiently flexible so as to tend to collapse under its own weight to open or close the individual loops and to permit at least a second free end of the drinking tube to drop to the lowest point within the container, regardless of the orientation of the container. A variety of specific configurations are disclosed for sports drink containers, infant nursing bottles, and drink bottles, cups, cans and other liquid containers for a variety of uses.

Abstract: A continuous temperature monitoring apparatus for a human infant includes a garment adapted to be worn on an infant's torso, over the armpits, which includes a temperature sensor located in an armpit of the garment for sensing the infant's temperature. The sensor is functionally coupled with a display on the garment, transmits a radio signal indication of infant armpit temperature to a display device remote from the infant or both. Electronic temperature sensor embodiments are functionally coupled to an electronic display device located on the infant by a flexible lead or by radio transmission to a remotely located electronic display. Non-electrical systems include temperature responsive, chemical liquid crystal displays thermally coupled by flexible metallic, heat transferring arms with a more rigid, massive, metallic heat absorbing element positioned against the infant's armpit for thermally coupling the heat responsive chemical display with the infant's armpit.
