  • Patent number: 8684964
    Abstract: An inflation device comprising a housing configured to receive a sensor assembly is disclosed. In some embodiments, the sensor assembly may be coupled to the housing through use of a snap fit-type connection. Further, the working fluid of the inflation device may be in direct communication with the pressure sensor, without the use of secondary fluids such as gels.

  • Publication number: 20070169682
    Abstract: A flag connected to a wristband or similar device by a length of material. The wristband and the length of material permit a spectator to throw the flag in a direction away from the spectator without fear of it being lost. The length of material permits the spectator to easily retrieve the flag after it is thrown. The ability to throw the flag increases its visibility and can be used to indicate to a game official a missed infraction. The length of material also allows the spectator to spin the flag around to show the spectator's admiration for the team or game. The flag and length of material are storable in a pocket attached to the wristband.

  • Publication number: 20040086682
    Abstract: A recyclable, thermoplastic backing material having the feel and weight of a rubber backing for use on a throw in mat. As compared with conventional rubber backed throw-in mats, the new thermoplastic material does not require a latex backing to adhere the rubber backing material to the primary backing layer. This may lead to decreased manufacturing costs associated with purchasing and applying the latex backing material. Further, because the material is recyclable, decreased costs associated with waste may be achieved.
