A tube seal assembly includes a nipple connected to a first fluid passage and a seal assembly connected to a second fluid passage. The seal assembly includes a cylindrical member attached to the second fluid passage and having a radially extending flange. A seal member includes a metal reinforcement with a cylindrical outer wall and a radially inwardly extending flange at a first end of the cylindrical outer wall. An over-molded seal body includes a locking feature on an interior surface of the cylindrical outer wall that engages the radially extending flange to retain the seal member to the cylindrical member. The over-molded seal body further includes a first sealing lip extending from the radially inwardly extending flange and received against an inner wall of the cylindrical member. An interior surface of the first sealing lip includes a sealing bead engaging the nipple.

Methods, devices, and systems for monitoring heart rate variability (HRV) are presented. The HRV monitoring systems and devices are adapted to give immediate feedback to the subject concerning their current condition and any pertinent changes in their condition. The HRV monitoring systems and devices detect, analyze, and assess HRV against a pre-determined application or user need. They also have the ability to provide real time notifications based on the system's assessment of a user's heart HRV and changes in the HRV.

A thermally insulated container is disclosed for maintaining thermo energy of an object. A first anchor is pivotably secured to the container and pivots to a position below the container for engaging a soil layer and preventing rotation of the container relative to a ground surface. A first locking arm extends between the container and the first anchor for locking the first anchor relative to the container. A second anchor is pivotably secured to the container and pivots to a position below the container for engaging a soil layer and preventing rotation of the container relative to the ground surface. A second locking arm extends between the container and the second anchor for locking the second anchor relative to the container.

A leaf and debris catcher for removing leaves and/or debris from a body of water. The leaf and debris catcher includes a leaf and debris collection member having top, bottom, front, rear, first, and second sides, the bottom side defining an interior side. A female vertical stem extends from a central location on the interior side of the bottom side, the stem defining a bore having opposite open ends. At least one inward opening front flap is located at the front side of the leaf and debris collection member. A plurality of debris and leaf guides converge and extend from the at least one front flap. The first and second sides of the leaf and debris collection member define a plurality of male tongues, and the top and bottom sides define complementary female slots, which are aligned such that the tongues snap-fit into the complementary female slots.

Leaf and debris catcher

A leaf and debris catcher for removing leaves and/or debris from a body of water. In one aspect of the invention, the leaf and debris catcher includes a base, a first vertical support member, a horizontal support member, a second vertical support member, and a leaf and debris collection member. In another aspect of the invention, a method is provided for removing leaves from a body of water. The method includes the steps of: providing a leaf and debris collection member; positioning the leaf and debris collection member in a body of water such that the leaf and debris collection member is located in a flow of water; collecting leaves in the leaf and debris collection member; removing the leaf and debris collection member from the flow of water; and removing leaves from the leaf and debris collection member.

An auxiliary faucet valve for shutting off the flow of water between an inlet pipe and a faucet. The auxiliary faucet valve includes a hose having a first end and a second end. The first end comprises a threaded female coupler for fluidly coupling to an inlet pipe. The second end comprises a threaded female coupler for fluidly coupling to a faucet. The hose is flexible. A valve is positioned between the first and second ends and is adapted for selectively opening and closing the hose.
