  • Patent number: 4374584
    Abstract: A handrail has an immovable base element extending in one direction, a support element arranged to be grasped by a user and reciprocable relative to the base element, and a drive for reciprocating the support element relative to the base element. The base element may be formed by a usual stationary handrail, may be connected to the latter, or may be formed as a plate. A guiding element guides the support element during its reciprocation. The drive includes an electric motor which is reversible, a spindle member provided with a thread and rotatable by the motor, and a nut member translatorily movable by the rotation of the spindle member and connected with the support element so as to move the latter. Switches are provided for reversing the direction of rotation of the electric motor and thereby the direction of movement of the nut member and the support element.

  • Patent number: 4331141
    Abstract: An arrangement for protecting of organs of respiration has a closing element adapted to close the user's nose and mouth, a filtering element communicating with said closing element so that when the user performs inspiration ambient air passes through said filtering element and is cleaned by the latter to be inspirated in cleaned condition, and a device for urging air to flow to and to pass through the filtering element. The device includes an urging element which is actuated in response to the inspiration performed by the user. The device may be formed as a deformable container which is mounted on the user's thorax so that when the user performs inspiration and the volume of thorax increases, the container is deformed and thereby forcedly urges air to the filtering element. The device may also be formed as an impeller driven by an electric motor which is actuated in response to the user's inspiration.

  • Patent number: 4237634
    Abstract: An article of advertisement includes a transparent container, and a plate-like member located in the container and carrying an image of eyes. When the article is mounted on a movable object such as a vehicle, the plate-like member displaces relative to the container since one of the transverse dimensions of the plate-like member is smaller than a respective one of the dimensions of the inner chamber of the container. This provides for impression of moving eyes. The inner chamber of the container may be filled by a transparent liquid so that the plate-like member floats in the inner chamber. Thereby, friction between the walls of the container and the member is eliminated, and the eyes in the liquid have a greater impression of movability and sparkling.
