  • Patent number: 9226639
    Abstract: A flat mop tool is provided. When it is moved forward and applied with a force, first connecting members are pushed forward to slant upward and a second board portion is in contact with the ground tightly; meanwhile, the front upper ends of the first connecting members lift a first board portion upward to be away from the ground through third connecting members. The dust on the ground is pushed forward to be underneath the first board portion to collect dust forward. When it moved rearward and applied with a force, the first connecting members are pushed rearward to slant upward and the first board portion is pushed downward to get contact with the ground to collect and attract the dust; meanwhile, the second board portion is lifted upward and the dust is pushed rearward to be underneath the second board portion to collect dust rearward.

  • Patent number: 6068147
    Abstract: An air intake aiding plate structure for nipples of feeding bottles, in particular an aiding plate that is adapted to be disposed below a nipple to hold the nipple in position together with a nipple locking cap. The aiding plate has an annular depression located below an air slit of the nipple for receiving air induced via the slit. The annular depression has an air intake hole that extends downwardly to connect to an integrally formed extended air intake tube to guide the air deep into the feeding bottle so as to balance the air pressure inside the bottle. Hence, the air guided into the feeding bottle will avoid the mouth of the nipple where the fluid suction force is strong, and the passages of air and fluid will be separated, thus preventing entry of air into the baby's stomach during feeding.

  • Patent number: 5758787
    Abstract: A nursing assembly of the type which can be readily installed with a standard nipple socket includes a cup, a nipple socket, a collar socket and a locking socket. The locking socket includes an extension which can be engaged with a skirt portion of the collar socket. In assembling, a cup is disposed within the collar socket such that the outer rim of the cup is seated onto a top portion of a lower stepped portion of the collar socket. Accordingly, the wall portion of the cup is protected and supported by the skirt portion of the collar socket. Then the locking collar is screwed onto the collar socket such that the extension is inserted into the cup. By this arrangement, the wall of cup is sandwiched by the skirt portion and the extension of the collar socket and the locking socket and complete protection and support is attained without the possibility of deforming or unintended release from the locking socket and collar socket.

  • Patent number: 4981275
    Abstract: A photoelectric garbage bin, which includes a rectangular housing having an opening on its beveling upper portion covered by a pivotal cover board and defining therein a space for the setting therein of a dustbin. Through the detection of an electric eye on the housing, a motor is driven to carry a rope pulley to take up or let off a rope, which extends from the rope pulley through an idle wheel to secured to the back side of the cover board, so as to drive the cover board to open the opening of the housing or permit two torsion springs to automatically turn the cover board back to original position to completely close up the opening of the housing.
