  • Patent number: 9402467
    Abstract: A collapsible table includes upper and lower pole members, a hub, and a tabletop. The upper and lower pole members are pivotally attached to the hub. The upper pole members extend upward and apart from each other from the hub when in their operable configuration and extend downward from the hub and generally parallel to each other when in their stowage configuration. The lower pole members extend downward and apart from each other from the hub when in their operable configuration and extend downward from the hub and generally parallel to each other when in their stowage configuration. The tabletop is removably attachable to the upper pole members and can be suspended by and between the upper pole members when the upper and lower pole members are in their operable configurations.

  • Patent number: 9179746
    Abstract: A walking stick includes an upper section and a lower section connected by a boss assembly. The upper section comprises three elongate arm members each pivotal about a hinge located on an upper surface of the boss assembly between a first position in which it is generally upstanding and lies generally parallel with the other two elongate members and a second position in which it is inclined at an angle to the other two elongate arm members. The lower section comprises three elongate leg members each having an upper end positioned for pivotal movement relative to the boss assembly between a first position in which it is generally upstanding and lies generally parallel to the other two elongate leg members and a second position in which it is inclined at an angle to the other two elongate leg members.

  • Patent number: 8934251
    Abstract: A cabinet for electronic devices includes a rack and engaging units. The rack includes a first supporting post, a second supporting post, a third supporting post and a fourth supporting post located at four corners of an imaginary rectangular parallelepiped. An opening is defined between the first supporting post and the second supporting post for the electronic devices inserted therein. Each of the third and fourth supporting posts defines a plurality of pairs of slots therein. The engaging units are mounted on the third and the fourth supporting posts, respectively. Each of the engaging units includes a pair of pins received in a corresponding pair of slots and a pressing element connected with the pins. The pressing element is horizontally moveable by the pins sliding along the corresponding pair of slots to thereby adjust an abutting force between the pressing element and a corresponding electronic device.

  • Patent number: 8231045
    Abstract: A suggested welding crane for welding of objects comprises an arm, a stand and a welding head. The arm includes at least a first and a second segment, which are arranged with their length axes essentially parallelly and are telescopically movable along their length axes in relation to each other so that at least a first segment of said segments at least partly slides into at least a second segment of said segments. The welding head is arranged in a distal end of an outermost segment of the arm while an innermost segment of the arm is suspended in the stand. A linear guide is arranged on at least a first segment of said segments. A co-operating part of said at least one linear guide is arranged on at least a second segment of said segments, wherein the at least one linear guide is adapted to provide said telescopic movement.
