  • Patent number: 11709377
    Abstract: Spinnable frames for spectacles are provided. A spinnable frame allows a user to hold a distal end of one of the temples and freely spin the remainder of the spectacles around that end of the temple. A spin joint is provided in at least one of the temples that allows this spinning action. The spin joint may span an interface between the distal end of the temple and a proximal end of the temple, the proximal end being coupled to a front portion of the frame at a hinge interface. In this way, the temple arm is allowed to fold against the front portion for compact storage, as with conventional eyeglass frames, while facilitating spinning of the spectacles in a way that avoids excess forces on the hinge interface and/or other portions of the frame or lenses mounted therein.

  • Publication number: 20140190517
    Abstract: The system and method permits the use of equipment that is located exterior to a container, such as a tank container liquid hydrocarbon material within which a sludge deposit has accumulated, and then inserted, as through an access opening in the side of the tank. In addition to other innovations, an improved hydraulic equipment positioning arrangement is provided, for both positioning, inserting and withdrawing the conduit structure and end effectors for accessing the sludge or sediment, which may include a leveling element preferably in the form of an hydraulic system that operates to move the assembly in a vertical plane as well as a rotary driven hydraulic system for driving the conduit structure along a long axis.
