Abstract: The present invention relates to disposable police restraints (hand cuffs), of both the single loop variety and the double loop variety. Specifically, the present invention is directed to a method and apparatus for coiling such cuffs, which are normally carried in their open configuration, or in a partially closed loop, into a small, easy to carry, and easy to use, coiled cuff form. Other embodiments of the present invention are the coiled disposable cuffs themselves, both in the single loop form and the double loop form.

Abstract: A cutting device comprising a base, a pivot thruster, and a cutting blade is disclosed. The cutting device allows for safe cutting, and, unlike other cutting devices, may not be used as a weapon. The cutting device is lightweight, inexpensive, portable, and may be operated using one hand.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to two forms of safety tips for friction lock, expandable batons; namely the Safety Tip™ and the Power Safety Tip™. Both safety tips of invention have a threaded end that is used to connect the tip to the small end of the baton. A step section with the same diameter as the small end diameter is advantageously used in the basic tip design to allow the shaft to be seated far enough into the handle to have full retention spring contact. The steel flange in the basic tip design also protects the softer peripheral tip cover material from being sheared off by the middle baton section when the baton is closed with a hard material in place on the steel section. In the power safety tip, the step section is the same diameter as the middle shaft of the baton, and this allows full contact with the retention spring. In both of the tip designs, the very end of the tip is rounded steel, the sides of which blend into the peripheral soft rubber-like material.

Abstract: A safety tab device coupled to an aerosol container by a connecting member, a flexible member coupled to the connecting member and a flip tab coupled to the flexible member and which can be locked to the aerosol container to make it difficult to spray chemicals from the container without unlocking the tab.

Abstract: A expandable police baton embodying a cylindrical sleeve within which is slidably disposed a cylindrical shaft. The sleeve and shaft are formed with flats to prevent rotation of the shaft within the sleeve. The baton also includes a shock absorbing assembly positioned on the shaft.

Abstract: An expandable police baton embodying a cylindrical sleeve within which is slidably disposed a cylindrical shaft and further embodying structure for limiting the position of the shaft on the one hand within the sleeve and on the other hand expanded therefrom. Preferably, the sleeve is comprised of aluminum and the shaft is comprised of polycarbonate or aluminum. A spring-biased nylon steel pin assembly is employed to limit contraction and extension of the shaft relative to the sleeve and a shock absorbent plug is employed to constrain extension.

Abstract: A police stick comprising an elongate metal tube closed at its opposite ends and filled with a cellulose polystyrene and a rigid handle fixed to the tube nearer one end than the other such as to divide the stick into a short portion which, in conjunction with a handle, facilitates manipulation of the stick and a long portion at the other side by means of which the execution of the maneuver is accomplished.

Abstract: A police club having at the base of the handle grip a radially protruding circumferential shoulder for suspending the club in the carrying ring of an officer's belt for preventing objects sliding down the club from hitting the officer's hand and for preventing the club from slipping in the officer's hand when jabbing.

Abstract: A multiple section telescoping police baton is disclosed. The baton has a locking mechanism which is activated upon twisting of one section relative to the other in order to prevent sliding motion of one section relative to the other.
