A jumping toy and the methodology of creating a cascading arrangement of multiple jumping toys. Each jumping toy has a first segment and a second segment that are connected at a joint. The first segment and the second segment can rotate about the joint between a first configuration and a second configuration. Each jumping toy has a biasing element that biases the jumping toy toward its second configuration. Each jumping toy is stable in its first configuration and quickly transforms into its second configuration once it is slightly displaced out of its first configuration. The rapid change in configuration makes the bi-stable toy jump. A plurality of bi-stable toys can be overlapped into a cascading chain. The first toy in the cascading chain is triggered. The movement of the first toy triggers the next toy in the chain in a cascade.

Cascading jumping toys and the associated method of operation

A handheld grip assist device for use in gripping an object in a sanitary manner. The grip assist device has a clamshell construction, wherein two assemblies are joined at a hinge. The two assemblies have a rigid frame that support elastomeric panels. Movement between an open configuration and a closed configuration are controlled by engaging the grip assist device between a thumb and finger and using the muscles of the hand to open and close the grip assist device. In this manner, the grip assist device can be precisely controlled while preventing any direct contact between a gripped object and the skin of the hand. The grip assist device can be locked in its closed configuration, therein isolating surfaces on the grip assist device that could cause cross-contamination.

Device for protecting the hand when gripping objects

A drying rack that supports a tray and dish rack for drying dishes. The drying rack has a low side and a high side. The low side is placed adjacent to a sink. A dish rack and tray are placed on the drying rack so that any water dripping off dished held in the dish rack drips into the sink. The elements of the drying rack disassemble without tools to store the device flat.

A toy assembly that is configurable between a ball shape and a disc shape. When compressed into a disc shape, an air foil configuration is achieved that enables the toy assembly to achieve stable flight. A first plurality of body flaps radially extend from a first hub to create a first hemispherical subassembly. The opposing second hemispherical subassembly is created using a second hub and a second plurality of body flaps. A resilient ring is engaged by all of the body flaps. The resilient ring binds the two hemispherical subassemblies together. A temporary connector is coupled to the first hub and to the second hub. The temporary connector temporarily interconnects the first hub and the second hub for a period of time after the first hub and the second hub are pressed together.

A helmet rigid flashlight bracket that is replaceably and securingly attachable to a portion of a brim of a helmet that is wearable by a user and replaceably and securingly receives a flashlight of a variety of different flashlights each of which has a handle portion and a light emitting portion that emits a light beam that points substantially at eye level in a forward direction of the user that includes a face plate, flashlight maintaining apparatus, a substantially C-shaped channel, and face plate clamping apparatus. The face plate has a lower portion. The flashlight maintaining apparatus is disposed on the face plate and replaceably and securingly maintains the handle portion of the flashlight of the variety of different flashlights to the face plate. The substantially C-shaped channel is disposed on the lower portion of the face plate in an orientation so as to be parallel to the light beam that emits from the light emitting portion of the flashlight of the variety of different flashlights. And, the face plate clamping apparatus is associated with the substantially C-shaped channel and replaceably and securingly clamps the face plate to the portion of the brim of the helmet, so that the light beam that emits from the light emitting portion of the flashlight of the variety of different flashlights points substantially at eye level in the forward direction of the user.
