Abstract: A convertible hiking stick includes a handle extending along a center axis and a first leg and a second leg that couple to the handle and extend along the center axis. The hiking stick is convertible into a tripod such that the first leg is in a first bore of the handle, the second leg is in a second bore of the handle, the first leg extends transverse to the second leg, and the first leg, the second leg, and the handle together support the hiking stick with respect to a surface.

Abstract: A rope guiding device includes a base seat, two limiting link assemblies connected to the base seat, and a limiting rope. Each of the limiting link assemblies has a retaining space therein, and a guiding groove in spatial communication with the retaining space. The limiting rope includes two head pieces respectively and movably retained in the retaining spaces of the limiting link assemblies, and a rope body having two opposite end portions that respectively extends through the guiding grooves of the limiting link assemblies and that are respectively connected to the head pieces. Each of the head pieces has a width greater than the width of each of the guiding grooves and the width of the rope body.

Abstract: There is provided a seating device having a group of three or more rigid compression members with successively smaller outer diameters that are sized to form a single nested structure. The seating device further has a seat having three or more seat connection points spaced about a flexible supporting web, a base having three or more base connection points, the three or more base connection points being connected by base tension members, and three or more flexible side tension members. Each compression member is removably engaged between a combination of a selected seat connection point and a selected base connection point, and each side tension member is engaged between a combination of a selected seat connection point and a selected base connection point, the combination of connection points engaged by each side tension member being different than the combination of connection points engaged by each compression member.

Abstract: A support mechanism for supporting an electronic device is disclosed. The support mechanism comprises two support assemblies detachably assembled together, each support assembly comprising an adjustable member defining a latching groove; and a support member rotatably connected to the adjusting member, the support member of one of the two support assemblies being capable of being partially received in the latching groove of the adjustable member of another one of the two support assemblies.

Abstract: The ceiling fan display comprises a stand having a vertical support with a horizontal support base extending from the bottom of the vertical support, and a horizontal support arm extending from the top of the vertical support. The ceiling fan is disposed at the distal end of the horizontal support arm. The horizontal support base is comprised of structural members that extend outward from the vertical support to form a “T” shaped outline. Boxes of the displayed ceiling fans may be stacked on the horizontal support base as a part of the sales display.

Abstract: An expandable ambulatory walking device and method of use are disclosed. In one form, an ambulatory walking device includes an elongated member having a first end and a second end and a rubber contact material coupled to the first end. The device further includes an expandable handle coupled a second end of the elongated member and operable to be provided in a collapsed state providing a handle. The expandable handle is also operable to be provided in an expanded state to provide a seat for the user.

Abstract: A signal assembly includes a light device connected to a light stick which has three connection hooks extending from an outer periphery thereof. A first connection assembly is mounted to the light stick and includes a first ring and a second ring connected with each other, wherein the first ring has a first flange extending outward from a first end thereof and three notches are defined through the first flange. The connection hooks are removably engaged with the three notches and hooked with the first flange by rotating the light stick relative to the first ring. By this way the light stick is able to be separated from the first connection assembly. Three leg plates are pivotably connected to the first connection assembly.

Abstract: A foldable stick assembly includes a foldable tube unit, a sliding handle, a push rod unit, a ratchet socket, an upper ratchet, a pawl member, a lower ratchet, and a push block. The foldable tube unit includes a handle, an upper mounting tube, a lower mounting tube, an upper pivot sleeve, and a lower pivot sleeve. The push rod unit includes a main push rod and an upper push rod. Thus, the foldable stick assembly may be used to cut and remove the weeds and to loosen the soil. In addition, the foldable stick assembly is folded easily and conveniently, so that the volume of the foldable stick assembly is reduced, thereby facilitating storage and transportation of the foldable stick assembly, and thereby decreasing the cost of assembly.

Abstract: A standing structure is formed by a plurality of poles and a holder movable between an open position and a closed position. In the closed position, the holder is dimensioned and configured to grip each of the plurality of poles and hold the poles in a standing structure. The poles form the legs of the structure. The holder is also configured to release the poles when moved to the open position to enable disassembly of the standing structure. A closure mechanism secures the holder in a closed position and a release mechanism releases the closure mechanism and thereby releases the poles from the holder. Accessories may be mounted on the standing structure. For example, with the holder attached to the midsection of the poles, a seat is mounted on the upper ends of the poles to form a stool. With the holder attached to the upper ends of the poles, accessories such as a camera mount, a table top, or a lantern may be attached to the holder to form various useful structures.
