International Classification:

B25G 100

US Classification:

811771, 81489, 161101

Abstract:

A self-securing handle for a tool having a longitudinally extending main body portion, is provided. The handle includes an elongate body having a first end and a longitudinally opposed second end, and a central cavity extending from the first end to the second end thereof. The handle further includes a securing mechanism positioned within the central cavity proximate the second end of the handle. The handle receives the tool main body portion within the central cavity, and the securing mechanism mates with a receiving structure on the tool main body portion to secure the handle to the tool main body portion.

International Classification:

B25B 2316

US Classification:

811771, 81489

Abstract:

An ergonomic wrench for rotating a member in a torquing plane substantially perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the member is provided, having a head portion for engaging the member and a handle extending therefrom in a first longitudinal direction. The invention further includes a handle which is substantially elliptical, having a major axis and a minor axis when viewed in a cross-sectional plane perpendicular to said first longitudinal direction, the major axis of which is arranged substantially perpendicular to the torquing plane.

International Classification:

B65D 83/00

US Classification:

222396, 222 3

Abstract:

A beverage dispensing device using a pressure regulator to maintain the pressure inside the beverage container as the beverage is dispensed is disclosed. The pressure regulator includes a second chamber separate from the space containing the beverage. The second chamber contains a sorbent on which a propellant gas is adsorbed. The pressure inside the beverage container controls the opening and closing of a flow regulator that allows either the beverage being dispensed or a displacing agent contained in a third chamber to flow into the second chamber when the pressure in the beverage container is decreased. If either the beverage or the displacing agent flow into the second chamber, it will liberate the propellant gas adsorbed to the sorbent, and the gas is released through an outlet into the beverage container. This increases the pressure in the beverage, which in turn closes the flow regulator and stops the liberation of the propellant gas from the sorbent. This process is repeated as the beverage is being dispensed to maintain the pressure of the beverage inside the dispenser.

International Classification:

A61M003/00

US Classification:

604/189000, 604/209000

Abstract:

A hand-held device () useful for dispensing a liquid material includes a housing () containing the material to be dispensed and having a dispensing nozzle () and a resettable ratchet () operatively connected to a biased piston (). The ratchet mechanism () including a release lever () normally preventing movement of the piston () until released. When the lever () is released the piston () is biased toward the dispensing nozzle (), such that an amount of the material is urged to flow toward the nozzle (). The housing () is configured to be pen-like.

Appl. No.:

11/400726

Inventors:

David Schiff - Highland Park NJ, US
Peter Byar - Willingboro NJ, US

International Classification:

A61B 17/32

US Classification:

606181000

Abstract:

A lancet device including a lancet having a puncturing element disposed within a two-piece housing including a rear housing and a forward housing. Relative axial movement of the rear housing toward the forward housing directly drives the lancet to a puncturing position wherein the puncturing element extends through the forward housing. During such relative axial movement, a drive structure applies a driving force against the lancet and disengages from the lancet based on deflecting structure in the housing, thereby releasing the driving force applied to the lancet. A retention member then retracts the lancet back within the housing, with the drive structure maintained disengaged from the lancet to prevent re-use.
