Abstract: An adjustably locking stethoscope identification tag having a first body and a second body, the first body defining a first surface and a second surface, the second body defining a third surface and a fourth surface, a first leg positioned adjacent to the second surface of the first body and extending in a direction away from the second surface of the first body, and a first leg retainer positioned adjacent to the third surface of the second body and extending in a direction away from the third surface of the second body, wherein a space defined between the first body and the second body is increased by moving the first body in a direction away from the second body and is decreased by moving the first body in a direction toward the second body.

Abstract: A double-bow shoe lace device for a shoe includes six lace sections, a clamp member, and a decorative knot. The lower ends of the first to fourth lace sections are anchored on the eyelet tabs. The upper ends of the first and second lace sections and those of the fifth and sixth lace sections are interconnected to form first and second loops, respectively. The clamp member is sleeved slidably on medial portions of the first and second lace sections. The upper end of at least one of the third and fourth lace sections and the lower ends of the fifth and sixth lace sections are anchored on the clamp member. The decorative knot is secured on and is disposed externally of the clamp member between the first and second loops, and has a knot portion and two distal portions.

Abstract: A process for lacing shoes, for use with any shoe with lace-holes and any shoelace. The process results in shoelaces that follow a path that describes a double-helix, resulting in reduced friction and faster and easier tightening and loosening.
