  • Publication number: 20070028923
    Abstract: An airway device used to establish an airway in an unconscious person or person receiving general anesthesia. The device is composed of a gas tube with a breathing circuit connector on one end and an endplate on the other. The present art incorporates a guide cord, guide loops or conduits, a pull-ring, endplate creases, tubular notches and geometric gas tube designs. Specifically, the guide cord is attached to the endplate tip and routed through the endplate and gas tube by means of the guide loops or conduits. The guide cord exits near the gas tube connector and terminates to a pull-ring. The guide cord conveys pull-ring manipulation to the endplate and permits change of endplate attitude and shape and prevents endplate fold back. Also, endplate creases, gas tube notches and geometric gas tube designs are applied to optimize insertion and safety of the device.

  • Publication number: 20060272327
    Abstract: Means to use a water column in conjunction with a number of containers, being filled with air, when at the bottom of the column and thus forced to travel to the top of the water column, due to the buoyancy principle and said containers being attached to a motor chain or other means to control their perpetual travel in a sequential travel within the column of water in the process of rising to the top, thus causing energy suitable to be used. Then provide means to transfer said energy so produced by the rotating motor chain caused by the container's function, being forced to the top of the water column every time they are filled with air. By being able to maintain said operating conditions in said equipment at all times, a continuous energy is produced and so transferred through the chain and holding gears to a desired use.

  • Publication number: 20050140237
    Abstract: This invention relates to an electric motor design, which uses the design introduced in U.S. Pat. No. 6,060,798 entitled “Straight Motion” issued May 2000, with certain improved variations. More particularly instead of having the plungers set on a straight line, this invention pertains to setting the plungers in a circular position of a fixed diameter and also have the coils set in the same circular arrangement, aligned properly to each other, so coils and plungers can interact accordingly when energized. Now if each plunger is supported by a bracket connected to a common shaft located in the center of said circle. Said bracket being of a size and shape able to travel through the slot provided in the magnetic coils used. When each coil is energized it will pull a plunger into the magnetic field and thus force the shaft to rotate, thus causing a rotary motion, provided that the coils and plungers are set in certain desirable spacing in relation to each other for the purpose of this application.

  • Patent number: 6060798
    Abstract: A method of winding an electromagnetic coil creating a slot on the side of the winding, in order to allow a space for the plunger support to slide through the coil. Such an arrangement will permit the plunger to be permanently mounted, not movable and allow the coil to travel over the plunger and past it in either direction.Thus by installing a series of plungers and their supports aligned in a straight line, said coil(s) can be moved over the plunger or plungers by sequential energezation and thus create a linear motion, or otherwise referred here as "straight motion".
