  • Patent number: 7802820
    Abstract: A book includes a book body and at least one leaf. The book body is provided with two spaced folding lines to divide an outer side of the book body into a front face, a back face, and a spine interconnecting the front and the back face, and an inner side of the book body into a first and a second inner surface corresponding to the front and the back face, respectively, and a connecting surface corresponding to the spine and interconnecting the first and the second inner surface. The leaf is attached to one of the first and the second inner surface, and includes an illustration printed on a top surface of the leaf, a first embossed portion corresponding to the illustration, and at least one second embossed portion spaced from and higher than the first embossed portion to protect the latter against collapse by external pressure.

  • Patent number: 7661581
    Abstract: A multifunctional box organizer includes a hollow main body provided with at least one slit, via which magnetic bookmarks may be extended and then bent to magnetically attach to the main body, and a coin slot located at a distance from the slit; an open bottomed enclosure fitly received in a lower part of the main body; and a bottom cover closed to a lower open end of the main body to define a closed storage space in the enclosure. The enclosure is provided with an opening corresponding to the coin slot, so that coins may be inserted through the coin slot and collected in the storage space. Coins collected in the enclosure may be taken out by opening a cap on the bottom cover. A space in the main body above the enclosure is divided by a partition into several subspaces for holding and sorting pens and different articles.

  • Publication number: 20090176726
    Abstract: Methods for treating melanoma and other MITF-related disorders by administering a compound that causes an increase in HIF-1 level or activity (e.g., by increasing the level of HIF-1I in a cell) within cells. Such methods include administration of a compound that is a hydroxylase inhibitor, e.g., a prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor that reduces hydroxylation of HIF-1I thereby causing an increase in HIF-1I in the cell. Such treatment can lead to a decrease in MITF activity or expression.

  • Publication number: 20080176726
    Abstract: The present invention is a fitness ring having a loop capsule, which has a circular aeration space inside. The ring has an outside circular surface and a central through-portion. The sectional diameter of the circular aeration space is larger than the diameter of the through-portion. The circular aeration space contains a payload inside, and a predetermined area of the circular surface has projecting portions spaced at intervals. The addition of the payload gives the loop capsule proper weight and stability, and the fitness ring is more stable and safe while lying flat. The weight of the payload can allow users to experience more resistance and gravity when swinging, rolling, and moving the fitness ball ring. The addition of projecting portions can form massage areas, so that when using the fitness ring, users can also achieve the benefit of massage.

  • Patent number: 7306550
    Abstract: As annular fitness ball has an annular body and an annular air-filled space that is placed inside the annular body. The annular body has an annular surface and a central hole is designed on the external side of the annular body. The cross-sectional diameter of the annular air-filled space must be larger than the cross-sectional diameter of the central hole. Protruding ears extend outwardly from opposite sides of the annular body. Pull strings extend through holes formed in the producing ears.

  • Publication number: 20070265148
    Abstract: The structure of pneumatic aided fitness equipment includes a combined piston base at the piston made by the protruding tube of the second handle, which includes a protruding column and a piston, and the protruding column can be inserted and secured into to the protruding tube of the second handle. The piston can be slid inside the horizontal tube of the first handle. A limiting clamping ring includes a clamping part and a retracting hole, the limit clamping ring being positioned at an end opening of a horizontal tube of the first handle. The retracting hole is used for said protruding tube of the second handle, and a round edge is formed around the retracting hole to block the piston of the combined piston base. By so doing, the position of the piston of the second handle is more secure, durable and practical.

  • Publication number: 20070167288
    Abstract: The magnetic counter for small sports equipment shows the number of exercises. A permanent magnetic module is placed inside the hollow space in the first part, and a magnetic counter is placed inside the hollow space of the second part. The magnetic counter includes a magnetic component, counter display and a reset unit in one piece, so that the magnetic component inside the second part receives the magnetic signal from the permanent magnetic unit. The magnetic signal converts it to the numeral data by the counter display. The counter does not need wires that wrap around the components, making it more convenient and practical.
