Patent number: 10015957Abstract: A leveling hunting stand system for providing a substantially level platform and seat at an elevated position with respect to a ground surface regardless of the orientation of an upstanding support structure on which the stand is mounted. A base assembly mounts to the upstanding support structure, and a platform and seat assembly are pivotally suspended from the base assembly. The base assembly includes a generally vertical support member and a lateral member. A T-hook or strap-on hook member mounts the upper base assembly to the upstanding support structure, and a ratchet further secures the base assembly to the upstanding support structure. The platform is pivotally mounted to the lateral member, and a platform leveler supports a suspension assembly linking the platform to the leveler such that quick release devices position the extent of the leveling of the platform member with respect to the ground.Type: GrantFiled: July 28, 2015Date of Patent: July 10, 2018Inventor: Curtis D.

Patent number: 9775414Abstract: A portable electronic device is provided, including a main body, a C-shaped member, and a hinge module, wherein the main body includes a display surface and the C-shaped member includes an opening. The hinge module pivotally connects the main body with the C-shaped member. When the main body is situated in a first position, the main body covers the opening. When the main body rotates from the first position around an axis to a second position relative to the C-shaped member via the hinge module, the main body is away from the opening. An acute angle is formed between the axis and the display surface.Type: GrantFiled: November 5, 2014Date of Patent: October 3, 2017Assignee: HTC CORPORATIONInventors: Shih-Hsun Ou, Chun-Ta Huang, Ernest Euan Tien

Patent number: 8091382Abstract: A jewelry coupling includes a U-shape fitting connectable to respective parts of a necklace to allow two degrees of freedom of motion between the respective parts, e.g., allowing one part to rotate in one plane about one axis and the other part to swivel about another axis. The U-shape fitting includes a pair of spaced-apart disk-like sides with a fastener therebetween and attachable to a jewelry band member allowing rotation thereof about the fastener, a bridge connecting the two disk-like sides and an opening in the bridge for a pin fastener attachable to a decorative jewelry item, e.g., a pendant, allowing for swiveling of the decorative jewelry item about the another axis. A method for assembling an article of jewelry includes attaching a jewelry band member to a jewelry coupling allowing rotation about one axis and attaching a decorative jewelry item to a pin fastener allowing swiveling of the decorative jewelry item relative to the jewelry coupling and Jewelry band member.Type: GrantFiled: May 1, 2008Date of Patent: January 10, 2012Inventor: Joseph M.

Publication number: 20080006055Abstract: The piece of jewellery comprises at least two rings (2, 4) that can nest inside each other and have different diameters. These rings are assembled to each other so as to pivot relative to each other. The piece of jewellery can thus pass from a configuration wherein the rings are tilted to a configuration wherein they are nesting, such that the surface of the smaller ring (2) is concealed. The piece of jewellery further comprises indexing means (26, 11c) comprising a pin (26) secured to one of the rings (29) and which is arranged for cooperating with the edge (30) of an elongated aperture (11c) made in another ring (4), so as to immobilise the rings selectively in a plurality of relative positions.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 5, 2007Publication date: January 10, 2008Applicant: The Swatch Group Management Services AGInventor: Olivier Silvant

Patent number: 6564582Abstract: An adjustable length bracelet or necklace in which a chain link is formed in a continuous loop and passes through a pair of oval-shaped barrels. The chain loops around and is attached to each oval-shaped barrel by an aperture in the side of the barrel forming an elegantly simple construction. A super slick deformable resistant resilient material inside the oval-shaped barrels resiliently holds the barrels in an adjusted position. Sliding the oval-shaped barrels on the links of the chain adjusts the diameter of the necklace from a maximum to a minimum or anywhere in between. Preferably the oval-shaped barrels are constructed of a memory metal that is super elastic and is highly resistant to distortion. A nickel-titanium shaped memory alloy would be suitable. Also disclosed is an ankle or wrist bracelet linked to a ring to be worn on a finger or a toe.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2000Date of Patent: May 20, 2003Inventor: Susan H. Brachfeld

Patent number: 6279436Abstract: A method of setting a gemstone having a profile including at least three notch surfaces in a jewelry setting includes the step of cutting notches into the inner surface of each setting prong. Each notch has as least three notch surfaces, each surface being complementary to a corresponding profile surface of the gemstone. The gemstone is set in the setting prongs so that portions of the gemstone profile surfaces are received in respective notches. The gemstone is secured within the setting by manually deforming the setting prongs such that the notch surfaces of each notch substantially conform to the corresponding profile surfaces of the gemstone.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 2000Date of Patent: August 28, 2001Inventor: Jayce P.
