416063000 | AMBULANT, BODY SUPPORTED OR WITH CARRYING HANDLE | 6 |
20100290907 | PORTABLE FAN - Two embodiments of a portable fan for use in the cup holder of a recreational vehicle such as a golf cart are shown and described. In the first embodiment, a bottle-shaped body has a cup-shaped lower portion separated from the body by a shoulder which acts as a limit stop when inserting the base into a cup holder. A shrouded impeller is pivotally connected to the top of the base and exhibits an integral carry handle. The entire structure is made of a suitable plastic such as high density polyethylene. In the second embodiment, the impeller is located intervally of the body for safety and a bell-shaped outlet directs air through a diffuser with circular louvers. | 11-18-2010 |
20110280726 | CAP HAVING PIVOTABLY MOVABLE FAN - An article of headwear having a body with a hole extending completely through bottom and top surfaces thereof and a cooling device mounted to the article of headwear. The cooling device is mounted via a mounting ring received at the hole which mounts the cooling device to the body at the through hole to permit selective manipulation of the cooling device about a horizontal axis in a range between 0 to 360 degrees relative to the headwear body and the mounting ring. | 11-17-2011 |
20120020790 | Personal Propulsion Device With Hands Free Control - An improved personal propulsion device that generally imparts thrust directly to the user. The device allows hands free control of thrust magnitude and direction so both hands can grasp and control bicycle handlebars and brakes, watercraft paddles, ski poles or other apparatuses. The device is adjustable vertically, on the users' back, higher to allow sitting in a canoe or wheelchair and lower for standing on skates, skis, kick scooters etc. In one embodiment, the device includes an air compressor that is operatively connected to a cam mechanism engaged with the propulsion mechanism to provide compressed air. In another embodiment, the device includes a gap control mechanism to reduce or increase the size of the air inlet gap between the lip of the propeller shroud and an air horn to decrease noise levels or increase propulsion. The air horn can be gradiently flexible and warpable to allow controlled movement thereof. | 01-26-2012 |
20130330190 | ADJUSTABLE DOUBLE BLADED WATER PADDLE - A water paddle comprising a first shaft having a blade end and a free end and a second shall having a blade end and a free end, a first cog collar located on an exterior surface of first shaft and having a first set of teeth extending radially from a mating end of first cog collar and accessible to the user's fingers, a second cog collar located on an exterior surface of second shaft and having a second set of teeth extending radially from a mating end of second cog collar and accessible to the user's fingers, second set of teeth mateable with first set of teeth to prevent rotational movement between shafts, a ferrule extending from the free end of second shaft, a clip lip member located on an interior surface of the ferrule, and a spring tab mechanism located within an interior surface of first shaft and includes a body having corresponding resilient arms each having a displaceable tab supported thereon engageable with a set of push button holes located on first shaft. | 12-12-2013 |
20150345464 | ROTOR HUB FOR A WIND TURBINE - A rotor hub for a wind turbine, comprising a first device for lifting and/or transporting being arranged in a first interior of the rotor hub is provided. Further a wind turbine comprising the rotor hub is suggested. The rotor hub is applicable for all kinds of wind turbines. | 12-03-2015 |
20160115964 | AIR MOVEMENT SYSTEM AND METHOD - An air movement system and methods for moving air within a building structure to effect, for example, drying of newly poured sub-grades, drying building materials due to water leakage (e.g., rain, flood) and generally improving air quality within such structures. The system includes a plurality of fans operatively coupled to a power generator, all of which is readily set-up and repositionable. A primary unit having at least two fans mounted on a trailer via bases, and the power generator provides transportability and mobility and preferably includes a mounting hitch to allow towing. The fan bases preferably have both a horizontal axis, for controlling the pitch/tilt of the fan, and a vertical axis, for adjusting the directional air flow from the fan. The axes allow air flow about 360 degrees in a horizontal plane and at a range of angles above and below that horizontal plane. | 04-28-2016 |
