  • Publication number: 20150216245
    Abstract: Athletic pants/shorts/skirts having a rectangular shaped pocket located on or near the hip region with the aperture located on or near the waistband area creating a space for snugly restraining a mobile device, while limiting anterior and posterior exposure to environmental factors, objects and equipment that could come into contact with the device(s) and preventing the device from being laid upon when the wearer is performing exercises that require the posterior or anterior region to come into contact with equipment or other environmental factors. The present invention also moves the location of the mobile device closer to an athlete's ears than a standard inset pocket providing a headphone cord more flexibility.

  • Patent number: 8665583
    Abstract: A modular shelving system includes: a rail including a plurality of mounting holes; a plurality of shelves, each shelf including a pair of pivot pins; a plurality of pivots removably secured to the rail, wherein each pivot receives at least one pivot pin such that each of the shelves are rotatably supported on the rail between a corresponding pair of pivots; and a plurality of covers covering the rail and spanning the distance between each corresponding pair of pivots. The shelves each include a portion of a piece of visual art, such that when each of the shelves is positioned approximately vertically, the portion of the visual art is displayed and further such that when all of the plurality of shelves are positioned in the approximately vertical position, the entirety of the visual art is displayed.

  • Patent number: 8038123
    Abstract: A fluid handling device, such as a needlefree access device, includes a housing having an inlet and an inlet channel; and a flow control member comprising a combination outlet, biasing and piston member. The flow control member includes a piston section moveable between a closed position in which the piston section is in the inlet channel and an open position in which the piston section is inside the housing below the inlet channel but allows fluid to flow through the inlet channel; a biasing section connected to the piston section that normally biases the piston section into the inlet channel; and an outlet section connected to the biasing section having an outlet fitting in fluid communication with the inside of the housing. The piston section, biasing section and outlet section are connected together such that they can be handled as one piece when assembled with the housing to make the needlefree access device.
