  • Patent number: 12583254
    Abstract: In a system and method for replacing a vehicle wheel an electric motor with a drive shaft is concentrically connected to a first gear. The first gear may connect to a symmetrical bolt locking gear array having several bolt locking gears arranged such that each bolt locking gear rotates in the same direction that the first gear rotates. Each bolt locking gear may have a cylindrical hole at its center. The cylindrical hole may be outlined with an inner spiral thread, which connects to a set of power bolts that are outlined in an outer spiral thread which interlocks with the inner spiral thread. A power jack system having a plurality of extendable and collapsible bases is provided in the undercarriage of the vehicle to raise and lower the vehicle. An app running on a mobile device may control the raising/lowering of the vehicle and tightening/loosening of the power bolts.

  • Patent number: 10875150
    Abstract: An automatic tire replacement apparatus is disclosed that has a hydraulic fluid line connected to a hydraulic fluid reservoir via a reservoir at one end a hydraulic fluid retainer at the other end. At least one hydraulic piston is provided that has a hollow barrel with an inner volume and an outer volume, a piston, and a piston rod with a first end and a second end within the inner volume of the hydraulic piston. The apparatus also contains a power rod, with a spiral thread, partially within the hollow barrel outer volume. The hollow barrel is connected to the hydraulic fluid retainer via an inner piston actuator and an outer piston actuator. The power rod is connected to the piston rod. A power bolt that has a set of inward facing pins is engaged with at least the power rod spiral thread.

  • Publication number: 20070291995
    Abstract: The system, method, and apparatus of the present invention, address the problem of identity theft associated with the use of payment cards such as credit and debit cards, as well as identity theft associated with the use of identity cards such as driver's licenses and social security cards. An apparatus including a biometric input component that authenticates a system user is disclosed herein. Upon authentication, a proxy account number and a time varying security code are generated and displayed on the apparatus. The dynamically generated number and security code are then used to validate the user's identity within the system. Furthermore, the system, method, and apparatus of the present invention can be used to consolidate into one instrument, several payment and identity instruments.
