A resistance apparatus for use with exercise devices includes an axle and outer housing for rotatably mounting the axle therein. At least one inner housing includes an opening for receiving the axle therethrough so that the inner housing is fixably mounted on the axle. The inner housing is rotatably mounted inside the outer housing to permit rotation of the inner housing along with the axle within the outer housing. At least a first tensioned member is disposed within the inner housing. The first tensioned member includes a first end and a second end. The first end of the tensioned member engages an engagement area of the inner housing. The second end of the tensioned member engages an engagement area of the outer housing. The tensioned member creates a rotational restoring force between the inner housing and the outer housing.

Disclosed is a foldable exercise device comprising a seat with a front and rear portion. The front portion is pivotably attached to at least one support member. The rear portion includes an intermediate pivotably lateral support member attached between first and second vertical support members. Each of the first and second vertical support members includes top and bottom ends. The seat is configured to pivot to at least two positions including an open position and a folded position. A back support is pivotably secured to the intermediate pivotable lateral support member. The back support is configured to pivot to at least two positions including an open position and a folded position. A resistance apparatus is secured between the first and second vertical support members. The resistance apparatus is configured to supply a variable resistive force when at least one connector coupled to the resistance apparatus is pulled by a user.

Foldable exercise device

A system for pivotally coupling two elements of a portable computer is disclosed. The system includes a hinge pin for pivotally coupling the two elements. The hinge pin includes a rod having a main axis and a first outer diameter. The hinge pin further includes a bore in a proximal portion of the rod having a first inner diameter, wherein the bore is aligned along the main axis. The hinge pin further includes a distal portion of the bore having a second inner diameter larger than the first inner diameter. The hinge pin further includes a groove stop within the bore, providing a surface for pulling the hinge pin along the main axis in a proximal direction. The system further includes a tool for extracting the hinge pin from the two elements, allowing the hinge pin to be pulled along the main axis in a proximal direction.

Secure hinge mechanism for portable computer

An interment vessel is designed to be capable of transoceanic travel. A body for the vessel is buoyant and self-righting. The vessel has a sail disposed diagonally across its upper surface, relative to a keel along the bottom, providing propulsion under power of prevailing winds. Crematory ashes can be placed in the body of the vessel, either into an opening in the body which is thereafter sealed, or into a sealable container or urn arranged to be carried by the vessel. A provision to store and display a removable reward can be provided as an incentive for a finder of the vessel to return the vessel or the container/urn to the decedent's family or the like. Instructions can be provided, for example detailing the address and mentioning a further reward.

Interment vessel with directional capability

For joining a wishbone boom to the mast of a sailboard there is provided a connector having a body to which is pivotally joined a pair of sockets for receiving the mast ends of the wishbone, the sockets straddling a pair of complemental semi-cylindrical jaws pivotally mounted on said body and arranged to embrace a mast. When the sockets are positioned generally normal to the longitudinal elements of the jaws the latter are urged together by the sockets to clamp on the mast. Moving the sockets as a unit through an arc relative to the body and jaws releases the jaws so that they can separate and release the mast.
