  • Publication number: 20170008690
    Abstract: A portable medicine feeder includes a storage box formed by a recessed body and an extension part extending outward from a front end of the recessed body. A bottom of the extension part extends outward and upward from a place adjacent to the recessed body to form a sloping slide outlet with a gradually-reduced rim. The medicine feeder further includes a lid whose cross-sectional shape is identical to that of a top end of the storage box. The lid is disposed over the storage box for covering the top end of the storage box. An annular peripheral wall is formed on a lower surface of the lid relative to an inner side edge of the top end of the storage box.

  • Publication number: 20110296956
    Abstract: An opener to lift a tab of an easy-open can comprises a long-narrow lifting shaft whose front end disposes a keen prying section. A ring handle at a top rear section of the prying section is extensively disposed upward, and a thin protecting plate is extensively disposed outward for providing a protecting function. The keen prying section is inserted into a top edge of an opening of the tab. Thereby, a front portion of the lifting shaft stretches beyond one side of the easy-open can for forming a fulcrum. An upward pulling from users allows a front end of the tab to break the top lid of the easy-open can for forming an infirm breach on one section of the top lid. Further by means of a rear portion of the lifting shaft striding across a correspondent side of the easy-open can for forming the other fulcrum, an opposite and upward pulling force on the ring handle allows the rising prying section to lift the tab. Thus, the entire top lid of the easy-open can could be smoothly pulled apart and discarded.

  • Patent number: 5371922
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a safety device for a baby walker which has a main wheel and an auxiliary wheel. By using a main wheel lock plate and a telescopic pipe, a ratchet on the main wheel can be prevented from blocking by a lock block under normal circumstances. While moving on a slope the lock plate will block the ratchet by its own weight to control baby walker without sliding. By using an auxiliary wheel lock plate and a fixed spring, the lock can also be blocked in normal circumstances. The auxiliary wheel can be suspended in the air and the movable shaft always faces toward the motion direction. In this way, the baby walker will not fall on a hollow ground (such as stairs) and will automatically stop sliding on a slope, with the lock block blocking the auxiliary wheel ratchet and auxiliary wheel friction surface.
