A vertical seat blocking/divider device includes a seat back connector and a seat cushion connector. The vertical seat blocking/divider device is disposed on the center of an aircraft seat to block occupancy of the aircraft seat and establish a barrier between neighboring seats. In a further aspect, the vertical seat blocking/divider device includes a spring element to apply a force to the fabric of the seat blocking/divider device. In a further aspect, the vertical seat blocking/divider device may include armrest connectors on opposing surfaces so that the vertical seat blocking/divider device can be disposed between occupied seats to create a barrier between passengers.

Seat divider sail

A self-contained hydraulic system used with lifting mechanisms to aid in the lifting of their arms before undertaking lifting operations. The system includes a hydraulic reservoir for a liquid and a gas that share the space under pressurized conditions. A hydraulic control assembly regulates flow through the outlet of the reservoir to use from a hydraulic assembly used to lift the arm of a lifting mechanism. The hydraulic control assembly includes two normally closed, electrically activated valves, connected in series. One of them being unidirectional and including a bypass valve to graduate the flow and thus the speed at which the lifting arm moves. Optionally, a flow fuse valve can be used to limit the maximum flow through the system.

Self-contained hydraulic system

A stringed musical instrument system having a body and a reversible neck. The neck is provided with a mounting assembly for selectively alternating the coupling of the neck to the body such that either of the broad surfaces of the body may be utilized as the front surface or back surface of the instrument. The mounting assembly includes a tongue and groove connection between the neck and body. In addition, electrical coupling between the neck and body is provided.

Reversible stringed instrument system

A stringed instrument system comprising a body having a headward edge, a tailward edge, an upper edge, a lower edge, a front and a back. A first fingerboard extends beyond the headward edge of the body and a second fingerboard is located entirely on the body. The first fingerboard includes a fretted surface. A track runs beneath each fingerboard edge. The capo has an axis of rotation eccentrically located within the capo. A slider attached to the capo reacts against the track surface and pulls the capo hard against the fretted surface when the capo has been cammed against the fingerboard. The cam capo may have a plurality of independently rotatable sections. The independently rotatable sections allow either some or all of the guitar strings to be capoed. The fingerboards may be removably secured to the body so that they are interchangeable.
