Abstract: A common engine speed control mechanism for small internal combustion engines, which may be configured to allow for actuation of the speed control mechanism between stop, idle, and various engine running speed positions by actuation of one of a selected plurality of speed control levers. Each of the plurality of speed control levers is oriented so that it is movable in a direction which is substantially non-parallel to the direction of movement of the other speed control levers. In one embodiment, the actuation of the common speed control mechanism can be accomplished by movement of a first speed control lever in a substantially horizontal, side-to-side direction or by movement of a second speed control lever in a substantially vertical, up-and-down direction.

Abstract: An improved mounting assembly for mounting gauges and devices to a divers forearm. The assembly is comprised of a flexible material with provisions for rigid components to be placed therein. Rigid components provide structural integrity and secure gauges and devices. Gauges and devices may be easily removed, inserted, or exchanged while the unit is not being worn. When worn, the device may not be manipulated in such a manner as to allow gauges and devices to be easily moved. A compass holder (38) and a depth gauge holder (36) are sized to fit a variety of gauges commonly available. A rigid ring (62) with an inside diameter sized to fit specific models of gauges prevents gauges from rotating and popping out of device. Large overhangs comprised of flexible material hold devices conforming to the shape of a typical watch and diver's thermometer. A writing tablet and pencil may be secured to the inside arm of the device and are held in place by means of overhangs (40), friction, and compression.
