Abstract: The invention is related to a scraping tool that can be assembled and replaced for scraper blade quickly. The scraping tool in general comprises a stick for hand grasp and a scraping section in the front. The invention mainly uses an arm of suitable length extended from the back end of a jaw clamp toward the middle. It uses fasteners to be located inside the groove in the back of the scraping section. The fastener is also used as pivot for the arm to swing back and forth. On the arm in the back of the jaw clamp, there is a control button that provides vertical pushing force in the back of the jaw clamp and allows strong clamping force in the front of the jaw clamp onto the scraper blade to achieve stable assembly and fast replacement for scraper blade.

Abstract: The invention relates to a scraper structure, which is generally comprised of a long handle for handgrip and a scraping section in its front. Basically, the scraping section of the scraper is comprised of a jaw plate, a blade, a fastener and a fastening button. The front end of the scraping section extends downward or forward to form a blade slot and has a jaw base at the bottom to connect to the blade slot. The jaw plate has identical shape to the clamp jaw in the front of the jaw base. The fastener and the fastening button are combined to provide tightening and enable the clamp jaw in the front of the jaw plate to exert great pressure onto the blade and achieve quick blade replacement and assembly. Further, the fastening button can exert more force by the front hand in grasping the handle and achieve powerful scraping.

Abstract: The invention is related to a trowel that can be easily assembled and replaced for blade. The trowel comprises a handgrip shank and a knife holder that can accommodate a blade. The knife holder has a crossing locking groove inside and its top is firmly attached to the top of the supporting surface of the shank by fasteners. Thus, a suitable gap is formed between the bottom of the knife holder and the supporting surface. As a result, when the knife back has multiple locking hooks apart in equal distance, the blade can use knife back to slide in from the knife holder side and be locked inside the locking groove with the locking hooks. This provides a firm assembly positioning without downward detachment. In addition, the blade can be quickly removed from the knife holder side for replacement.

Abstract: The invention is related to an assembly joint structure of a long handle and a scraper top for a scraping tool. In general, it contains a long handle for hand grip and a scraper top in the front. In the invention, the rear central section of the scraper top has a connecting column of suitable length. On the connecting column, there are two through holes. In the front of the long handle, there is a connecting hole that has the same inner diameter as the outer diameter of the connecting column. On the wall of the connecting hole there are corresponding through holes. When the scraper top inserts the connecting column into the connecting hole of the long handle, rivets can be put in the through holes to constitute an assembly joint structure between the long handle and the scraper top.

Abstract: The invention is related to a noninvasive pulse measurement system with constant pressure for extremities of a human, and the constant pressure is modulated among 30 to 120 mmHg. There are an auto-mode and a manual mode for measurement algorithm. The auto-mode completes measurement and recording processes automatically during 2 minutes and pressurizes the system from low pressure (30 mmHg) to high pressure (120 mmHg) with 10 mmHg gradient every 5 seconds while the manual mode completes measurement and recording processes during a long time under a user's setting. Moreover, by a post-treatment of the system, the system is able to obtain continuous pulse signals, continuous pulse differential signals, and continuous pulse integral signals that are useful for Chinese medicine to evaluate and monitor the user's cardio-physiology and circulatory system.
