  • Publication number: 20130068556
    Abstract: A safety harness tool has a single web member that is used to form two arm loop structures and two leg loop structures for respectively securing the limbs of a body. The loops are primarily formed by stitched certain portions of the single web member to itself. The arm loops are made to have extra material, beyond what is needed to be securely placed around the arms of the body. When the harness tool is in use, the excess portions of the two arm loops are tied to each other and/or adjusted in size using an adjustment ring, such as a double buckle.

  • Publication number: 20110011672
    Abstract: Rope equipment with a pivoting rope clamp including first and second members mechanically connected to each other so that they are free to rotate relative to each other and so that a rope can be secured to (for example, threaded through) the rope equipment. At some relative rotational position, or range of relative rotational positions, the first and second members will be sufficient spaced apart so that the equipment can slide relatively freely with respect to the rope. However, if the relative rotation position changes too much in either rotational direction (clockwise or counterclockwise), then the first and second members will clamp down on the rope and prevent it from sliding with respect to the rope equipment. Preferably, the first member is provided with friction braking holes to help constrain the rope to the rope equipment and also to provide some degree of friction braking on sliding motion between the rope and the rope equipment.

  • Patent number: 5820493
    Abstract: A golf aid for use by a golfer to improve ball addressing and shot aligning techniques. The aid is generally comprised of an elongated cord having opposite first and second ends, a pin and a ring fixedly secured to the first and second ends, respectively, and a back foot position indicator embodied in the form of a cord engaging clamp mounted for slidable movement along the length of the cord. In use, a golfer would first analyze a shot to determine the best direction for the ball to travel. Following the shot analysis, the golfer would then take the pin attached to the cord's first end and insert it into the ground adjacent the rear of the golf ball. The cord could then be pulled taut and positioned on the ground in a line approximating the line in which it is desired for the ball to travel. The cord engaging clamp may then be adjusted to the position along the length of the cord that will be laterally aligned with the appropriate position for the back foot.
