Abstract: Disclosed is a cap configured for removable attachment a medical device. The cap has a body with an opening, a bottom, and a chamber defined between the opening and the bottom. The cap has a wall of the chamber comprising a thread originating proximate the opening and extending into the chamber by a height. The height of the thread increases as a function of increasing distance from the opening. A liquid disinfectant is contained within the chamber.

Abstract: Disclosed is a cap configured for removable attachment a medical device. The cap has a body with an opening, a bottom, and a chamber defined between the opening and the bottom. The cap has a male post in the chamber and projecting from the bottom towards the opening of the body. The cap has a wall of the chamber comprising a thread originating proximate the opening and extending into the chamber, wherein the male post is spaced from the wall and at least a portion of the thread having a height that increases as a function of increasing distance from the opening. The movable piston positioned about the male post. Further, within the cap is a liquid disinfectant in the chamber between the bottom of the body and the movable piston.

Abstract: A disinfecting cap includes a body comprising an opening, a bottom, and a chamber defined between the opening and the bottom. The chamber is configured to hold a liquid disinfectant. A male post extends from the bottom towards the opening of the body. A wall of the chamber comprises a thread originating proximate the opening and extending into the chamber. At least a portion of the thread has a height that increases as a function of increasing distance from the opening.

Abstract: A cleaning device for LADs, and other such threaded devices, comprising a cap and a cleaning agent. The cap comprises a casing having an opening to an interior cavity. A threaded coupling mechanism is located on the inner surface of the casing proximate the opening. The coupling mechanism has retention features that provide localized pressure points on the threads of the LAD to accommodate thread variance and reduce the chance of premature disengagement.

Abstract: An apparatus for use by locksmiths in disassembling the core of an interchangeable core cylinder lock. The apparatus holds the core securely and precisely, enabling a punch to extrude the springs, driver pins and spacer rods of the pin chambers into retaining chambers. The extruded contents of the pin chambers can then be examined and accurately returned to their respective pin chambers.

Abstract: A hand-held tool for gripping and manipulating pins of pin tumbler locks. The tool is comprised of an elongated rigid handle having a forward extremity equipped with two interactive prongs capable of adjustable flexural movement. The prongs can be pressed radially against a pin to grip it. The gripped pin can then be inserted into the pin chamber of a pin tumbler lock.

Abstract: A mechanical structure for controlling the available linear movement of a vehicle ignition lock mechanism has a tube member coaxial with the vehicle steering column. The tube member has an opening in which is disposed a pin which moves linearly when the ignition lock mechanism is manually operated. The tube is rotated when the vehicle transmission selector is moved whereby the pin has more or less linear travel available in the opening so that the ignition lock mechanism can be moved to the "Start" position when the transmission selector is in "Park" or "Neutral" and to the "Lock" position only when the transmission selector is in "Park".
