Abstract: A first example of the object transport assembly includes a body attachment member adapted to attach to a wearer and an object attachment member adapted to attach to an object to be transported. An insert including a notch formed therein is carried on one of the body attachment member or object attachment member and forms a male portion of a dovetail joint. An insert receiving channel is carried on the other of the body attachment member or object attachment member and forms a female portion of a dovetail joint that mates with the insert. The insert receiving channel includes a pin that is biased in such a way that the pin automatically slides into the notch when the insert mates with the insert receiving channel. An actuator is operably connected to the pin and is operable to move the pin out of the notch for removal of the insert from the insert receiving channel.

Abstract: An item carrier includes a body having a front side defining an item storage area capable of removably holding an item to be stored and a belt fastener member. The belt fastener member is attached to the body and is configured to fasten to a belt in such a way that the belt fastener member forms a loop around the belt and adheres to the belt.

Abstract: An air conditioning crane boom assembly having a number of mounting feet that removably secure the assembly to the rungs of a stepladder. Braces extend from these feet to a boom that extends horizontally away from the rungs of the stepladder. A pulley or a winch may be attached to the base of the boom, near the rungs of the stepladder, and the boom extends away from the stepladder to facilitate safe and stable lifting of loads such as air-conditioner components.

Abstract: A health monitoring system of an aircraft includes a plurality of sensors and interfaces that are non-invasively installed in a system of the aircraft. Further, the health monitoring system includes a data concentrator unit that is coupled to the plurality of sensor and interfaces. The data concentrator unit receives data associated with various components of the aircraft system from the plurality of sensor and interfaces. Responsively, the data concentrator unit processes the received data to generate a single output data stream that is transmitted to a configurable data receiver unit of the aircraft. The configurable data receiver unit transmits the received single output data stream to a ground server and an on-board display to monitor and determine a health and/or performance of the aircraft system.

Abstract: A product display unit can include a rotatable body that includes one or more product retaining sections and an outer shroud cover the one or more product retaining sections. The unit can also include a cover disposed around a portion of the body and arranged such that the body can rotate within the cover. Rotation of the body can be achieved for example, using wheels, which can be attached to opposed ends of the body and engaged by a consumer to rotate the body.

Abstract: A winder accessory comprises a gripper assembly adapted to be releasably attached to a rail. A cord winder mechanism is supported on the gripper and comprises a spooling mechanism for winding a cord. The spool mechanism rotates on a rotating joint about a first axis of rotation relative to the gripper. The spooling mechanism may comprise a wireform. A detachable pivot joint may be provided between the cord winder mechanism and the gripper assembly that defines a second axis of rotation.

Abstract: A portable beverage container includes a base adapted to contain a liquid and a lid assembly that is removably coupled to the base. The lid assembly is reconfigurable between an open position, whereby a user can drink the liquid from the base at any portion along the circumference of the top of the lid assembly, and a closed position, whereby the liquid is substantially prevented from exiting the base, such that the lid assembly prevents accidental spilling or splashing.
