Abstract: An archery bow includes a rigid frame having an upper limb, an opposite lower limb and a handle therebetween. A bowstring has one end attached to an upper wheel rotatably mounted to the upper limb and another end attached to a lower wheel rotatably mounted to the lower limb. The lower limb screwthreadedly receives an adjustable, rotatable self-contained tensioning unit having a variably compressible power coil spring therein. A cam is rotatably mounted to the lower limb between the lower wheel and the tensioning unit and is engaged by a cable which connects the spring with the lower wheel so as to provide a resilient pull to establish a draw weight required to move the bowstring from an at-rest position to a drawn position. A pin is variably positioned on the lower wheel for movement towards an engagement with a stop member fixed on the lower limb so as to establish a desired draw length for the bow.

Abstract: A tamper resistant faucet handle is provided for locking conventional sink or bath faucets in a closed or partially closed position. The tamper resistant faucet handle includes a handle body mounted to the flow control lever and a movable interference plunger that is slidably located within a plunger bore contained in the handle body. A locking mechanism locks the interference plunger in either an inward position or an outward position. When the interference plunger is locked in the outward position, it resides partially beyond the surface of the handle body for a distance sufficient for the plunger to interfere with movement of the handle body and consequently the flow control lever. In this manner, the locked plunger limits the range of movement of the flow control lever to lock the faucet in a closed or semi-closed position. The locking mechanism can be released and the plunger returned to the inward position, thus re-establishing a full range of movement for the handle and the flow control lever.
