Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080231829USER-WORN RANGEFINDER SYSTEM AND METHODS - Embodiments of an arm-worn rangefinder device includes a rangefinder body and a switch. The rangefinder body is shaped for coupling to a user's arm and has an electronic rangefinder circuit operable to emit an energy beam directed at a selected target, to receive a reflected beam from the target, and to calculate the target's approximate range based on properties of the reflected beam and indicate the calculated approximate range to the user. The switch is coupled to the rangefinder body, and the user can use the switch to selectively actuate the rangefinder circuit.09-25-2008

20090025829Knife Assembly and Chipping Knife Therefor - A knife assembly and chipping knife therefor. The knife assembly includes a knife, and employs an upper clamping member and a lower clamping member for clamping the knife therebetween. The knife has an elongate axis and two spaced apart cutting edges parallel to the elongate axis and defining a first reference plane. The knife is further defined by a plane of reflective symmetry that is perpendicular to the first reference plane and which contains the elongate axis. The knife has a front side and a back side spaced from the front side. The front and back sides terminate in the cutting edges. A deflector ridge projects from the front side and reaches a point of greatest maximum projection of the knife from the first reference plane, the point lying in the plane of reflective symmetry.01-29-2009
