Abstract: A detachable top tube assembly includes inner and outer tube members telescopically received by one another. Each inner and outer tube member includes one or more of an elliptical cross-sectional shape or is arced along a longitudinal axis thereof to prevent rotation of the inner and outer tube members relative to one another. Each of a pair of yoke assemblies is disposed at opposite ends of the inner and outer tube members and include a rotatable gate assembly for opening and closing the yoke assemblies. A pair of spring biased members is provided for engagement with the rotatable gate assemblies to maintain the gate assemblies in a closed position. A pair of button covers is provided for depressably engaging each spring biased member so to allow the gate assemblies to be rotated relative to a respective inner and outer tube member.

Abstract: A magnetic coupler for joining a first toy vehicle to a second toy vehicle is claimed. The magnetic coupler comprises a pair of spaced connectors. The connectors extend from an end wall of the first vehicle. A disk-shaped magnet is fixedly attached within a space formed between the pair of connectors. The disk-shaped magnet is mounted so that it is substantially perpendicular to the end wall of first toy vehicle.

Abstract: An underwater air supply system for use with an air supply tank and a buoyancy chamber includes a base module and a plurality of interchangeable modules releasably connectable to the base module. Each module includes at least one of an air supply buoyancy chamber inflator for selectively supplying air from the air supply tank to the buoyancy chamber, a buoyancy chamber exhaust for selectively exhausting air from the buoyancy chamber, an oral buoyancy chamber inflator for enabling a diver to orally inflate the buoyancy chamber, and a regulator for supplying air to a diver from the air supply.

Abstract: A breathing regulator for scuba diving includes a housing having a high pressure gas inlet and a discharge outlet in conjunction with a pressure regulator valve assembly operatively connected to the inlet. The valve assembly includes a valve support, a valve movably coupled to the valve support at a first location for movement between a first high pressure gas inlet closing position and a second high pressure gas inlet opening position and a layer of material disposed adjacent to the first location to insulate the first location.

Abstract: A breathing regulator for scuba diving in cold water, the regulator including a high pressure gas inlet and a discharge outlet, a pressure regulator valve assembly having a brass tube operatively connected to said gas inlet, a valve mounted in the tube to control the flow of high pressure gas through the tube, a lever connected to open the valve poppet, a diaphragm operatively positioned to engage the lever to open the valve poppet, and a plastic tube enclosing the brass tube to prevent icing of the tube.

Abstract: A breathing system regulator for a demand breathing system has adjusting apparatus for adjusting the demand required to open the air inlet valve to permit the user to increase or decrease the tension on the biasing spring urging the valve closed, and to decrease or increase the cushioning effect of a stream of air urging the valve closed. Adjusting apparatus is provided in which an air injector device is adjustably positioned to direct a flow of air between positions for adjusting the pressure at the inlet valve side of the regulator diaphragm to control the amount of breathing effort required of the user to open the air inlet valve.
