A stand for a fire extinguisher comprises four identical panels and a square plate. Each panel has a rectangular portion and an isosceles trapezoid-shaped portion. The isosceles trapezoid-shaped portion has only two sides of equal length. The four identical panels are interconnected along their equal-length sides to form a truncated square pyramid having a rectangular box at its upper end. The square plate is mounted inside of the rectangular box parallel to a base of the pyramid to support a fire extinguisher.

One embodiment of the invention provides kit that can be used for closing off the volume between the top and bottom trays of a hand cart for more secure storage of items on the bottom tray. The kit comprises a first wall section, a second wall section, and a third wall section. The first wall section is generally flat. The second wall section has a first generally flat section and a second generally flat section connected by a corner section. The third wall section has a first generally flat section and a second generally flat section connected by a corner section, and a generally flat door section connected to the second generally flat section by a hinge. The kit preferably comprises a plurality of fastener pairs for attaching the wall sections to the angle-stock legs. Preferably, each fastener pair comprises a bolt and a nut, and the kit further comprises a bushing for each fastener pair.

A stilt comprises a floor platform, a shoe platform, a first substantially vertical support, a second substantially vertical support, and a toe assembly. The shoe platform is superposed above the floor platform. The first substantially vertical support connects a front portion of the floor platform with a front portion of the shoe platform. The second substantially vertical support connects a back portion of the floor platform with a back portion of the shoe platform. The first and second substantially vertical supports connect the shoe platform and the floor platform in a parallelogram configuration. The toe assembly is hingedly connected to a front end portion of the floor platform. A spring biases the toe assembly into alignment with the floor platform. A leg support extends upwardly from the second vertical support. A calf brace is pivotally connected to an upper end portion of the leg support.

Performance stilts

For a spring tool for actuating explosive fasteners to operate at its maximum potential the firing pin guide should be pushed securely against the rear of the fastener and the tip of the fastener should be pushed securely against the substrate. To achieve this, the action of the operator pushing the tool forward to actuate the tool moves the trigger body forward while compressing the firing spring until the trigger body travels the exact distance needed to release the trigger ball. A step or backstop insert is added to the inside of the trigger body such that at the exact distance where the trigger ball is released, the step contacts the rear of the firing pin guide so that all internal components of the tool to form a solid (contacting) stack, from the tip of the fastener to the end cap of the tool.

Methods and systems relate to determining sensory motor performance based on user non-postural movements within a generated dynamic virtual environment. The generated environment requires users to: (i) utilize primary sensor inputs (e.g., vision, vestibular sensation and somatosensation); (ii) assess the dynamic virtual environment; and (iii) integrate and translate those inputs into movement to control the dynamic virtual environment. The methods may include receiving non-postural user input with respect to a state of one or more attributes of a dynamic virtual environment provided on a user interface for one or more sessions, the one or more attributes including a control object and a target which moves with respect to the control object; determining performance information based on the user input and the state of the one or more attributes for the one or more sessions; and determining sensory motor performance information from the performance information.

A heat exchanger can include a stacked array of interconnected fluid transfer members. The stacked array of interconnected fluid transfer members can include a first fluid transfer member, a second fluid transfer member, a third fluid transfer member, and a fourth fluid transfer member. The first fluid transfer member can include a liquid passageway extending lengthwise though the first fluid transfer member and a set of helical fins extending outwardly from an outer surface of the first fluid transfer member and rotating along a length of the first fluid transfer member. The stacked array of interconnected fluid transfer members can form a jointless structure.

A variable optical attenuator is described. A special profile blocker is rotated across a large angel (e.g., 180&deg; to 360&deg;) to provide a variable amount of attenuation. In one embodiment, the special profile blocker is an eccentrically driven wheel. The special profile blocker is driven by a stepper motor via a gear assembly. In one embodiment, the variable optical attenuator includes a beam splitter for the input and/or the output signal for monitoring of signal strength and/or feedback control of the attenuator.
