  • Publication number: 20180006528
    Abstract: A power generating rack includes a frame; a number of parallel spaced apart rollers; and a generator in communication with the rollers for converting the energy of rotation of the rollers into electrical energy. The frame supports a vehicle such as a car, truck and bicycle in such a way that the driving wheel of the vehicle is positioned between a pair of rollers and as the driving wheel rotates so too do the rollers which energizes the generator.

  • Patent number: 7027997
    Abstract: A flexible interface and a method for employing the same are provided for interconnecting a client program with a workflow server running a workflow management system having workflow-type functionality. The interface includes a set of predefined protocol user interface pages including at least one control page. At least one first workflow platform-dependent object is provided for accessing the workflow functionality. At least one second workflow platform-independent object is provided for providing data to the first workflow platform-dependent object. At least one server program is provided that is callable by the control page to access the workflow functionality by invoking at least one of the first workflow platform-dependent object and the second workflow platform-independent object to promote data translation and exchange between the client program and the workflow management system.

  • Publication number: 20050067224
    Abstract: A ladder safety support for use with an existing ladder is disclosed. The support includes an attachment assembly for removable connection to the lower end of the ladder and one of two interchangeable foot assemblies for supporting the ladder on a surface. The first foot assembly provides a surface-penetrating stake having a lower tapered section and presenting a pointed tip and a threaded portion for removably attaching the stake to the assembly. The second foot assembly is similarly removable and provides a surface-engaging pad.

  • Patent number: 4091273
    Abstract: An electro-optical switching system includes a plurality of visually activated switches, one for each one of a plurality of different electronic apparatus, each including electromagnetic radiation sensors having a detection surface and each controlling the application of electrical power to the respective equipment in response to an impinging electromagnetic beam incident at the detection surface for a determined time interval. A pulsed electromagnetic beam is provided by a transmitter included within an electromagnetic activating source held, or disposed on a portion of the anatomy of, a human operator who aligns the beam with the detection surface on the selected one of the switches with the aid of a visual reticle image provided by a reticle generator included in the activating source and boresighted with the transmitter.
