  • Publication number: 20200112704
    Abstract: An intrinsically safe video inspection system intended for use in a Class I, Zone 0 area is capable of visually surveying hazardous area locations; where the potential for fire or explosion exists because of gases, dust, or easily ignitable fibers in the atmosphere. The intrinsically safe camera of the present invention has the distinct ability to be used all areas that require increased safety and works in various hazardous environments, allowing users the ability to remotely view and inspect various mines, silos, and storage tanks. The inspection system includes a low power, high 3.2 megapixel resolution camera with digital zoom capability that allows for the close inspection and examination and utilizes an LED fiber light pipe for illumination needs. The video inspection system of the present invention provides for the illumination in various cavity sizes, while reducing the risk of unintended accidents.

  • Patent number: 4346887
    Abstract: An exercising apparatus for developing an exerciser's calf muscles via Donkey Raises, said apparatus comprising: an upright front post means to support a horizontal linking means which is pivotally mounted on a horizontal member attached to said front post means; said horizontal linking means extending away from said front post means for a distance of about the length of an exerciser's head, neck and body trunk, in other words, from his head to about his upper ham string muscle; said linking means also being supported on its extended end by a leg means for safety and when at rest; a force resistence means attached to said extended end; said force resistence means having a substantially horizontal press member so that when he uses said apparatus, he squats and bends the trunk of his body forward to assume a donkey-like pose, said press member being positioned just above said exerciser's bent lower back.
