    Abstract: A spool, a tightening device with the spool, and a coupling method of the spool and a lace are provided. A first free end and a second free end of the lace are routed in subtended directions along a first routing path and a second routing path, respectively. The first routing path and the second routing path are designed in separate grade crossing structure. Even if the first free end and the second free end are routed simultaneously, they will not collide with each other. When the lace is knotted, there is no strict requirement for the length of a reserved tail of the lace. Even if the tail of the lace is left outside a housing, the tail of the lace can be wound onto the spool by rotating the spool, without affecting the normal operation of the tightening device. The method achieves easy, quick, and accurate lace coupling.

  • Publication number: 20240197041
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a tension guide for a shoestring. The tension guide includes: a guide base 10 having a spring pocket 15; a tension spring 20 disposed in the spring pocket, whose both ends are elastically moved forward and backward as the shoestring 5 is pulled and released; and a guide cover 30 that covers the tension spring in the spring pocket. This gives continuing tension to a tied shoestring and therefore keeps the shoestring as tight as it initially was. Without the tension applied to the shoestring, the shoestring becomes less tight, and therefore the foot will feel loose in the shoe, not as tight as it initially was, and this problem occurring in the conventional art can be avoided by the tension guide. Moreover, the conventional shoestring becomes inadvertently loose, which basically provides an uncomfortable fit and involves other problems like causing the user's foot to move in the shoe or slip out of the shoe, exposing the user to many dangerous situations.

  • Publication number: 20240197072
    Abstract: The invention involves a method for converting a cabinet into a wheelchair accessible space, involving a retractable shelf with anterior, intermediate, and posterior panels. The method includes detaching the anterior panel from the cabinet's support component by removing a screw, folding the anterior panel towards the cabinet's posterior, and laying it parallel on the intermediate panel. Subsequently, the intermediate panel is folded onto the posterior panel, with the anterior panel stacked on top, revealing a wheelchair accessible area. The retractable shelf, initially in an expanded position, features hinged connections allowing parallel folding of the panels. The method is designed for universal installation within the cabinet, obviating the need for complete de-installation or re-installation.
