  • Patent number: 11793938
    Abstract: A device for injecting a medicament is provided. The device has a housing with a container within it which can hold a medicament. At its proximal end the container has a needle and a stopper. The device includes a plunger which at one end can engage the stopper. At the opposite end, the plunger can engage a first resilient member to move the stopper within the container to inject the medicament from the container. The device includes a collar with distal and proximal ends, the distal end engaging with a carriage and causing its rotation and the proximal end engaging with a second resilient member. The second resilient member can engage with a skin sensor which has distal and proximal ends. At the proximal end, the skin sensor can contact an injection site. The housing has a cap which can reduce or prevent movement of the skin sensor.

  • Publication number: 20220372333
    Abstract: This present invention relates to a wax designed to create a non-stick, polished surface on snow shovels, snow blower chutes and other devices. The wax comprises of ingredients such as odorless mineral spirits, beeswax and paraffin wax, and can be easily applied using a cloth. Additionally, the unique wax of the present invention offers a rust preventative solution when applied to metal surfaces and enables individuals to utilize the wax as a wood preservative and polish in addition to its other uses.

  • Patent number: 4161823
    Abstract: An improved circumference measuring device of the type comprising a tape curved to form a closed loop with the tape ends being attached to mounting members resiliently biased away from each other to tend to tighten the loop. A cam and follower system operates on one of the mounting members to move the mounting members closer together against the bias for insertion of a rod to be measured and then allow the mounting members to move apart to tighten the loop around the rod. Means responsive to the distance apart of the mounting members indicates the size of the loop and thus of the rod being measured and an automatic control system operates the cam so as cyclically to move the mounting members and adjust the loop between relaxed and rod-gripping and measuring conditions.

  • Patent number: 3967383
    Abstract: A circumference-measuring gauge comprising a tape curved over an intermediate portion into a closed loop with its two end portions extending away from the loop in opposite directions, two mounting members one fixed relative to each end portion of the tape and mounted for relative movement towards and away from one another to increase or decrease the loop circumference, and means responsive to the distance apart of two datum points one fixed relative to each mounting member to indicate the size of the loop.
