A gate assembly including a pivoting gate element secured to a doorway and/or passageway and employing a dual actuator latching mechanism having a simple yet unique locking lever and pawl mechanism for remote and manual latch release freeing the gate to swing to an open position, and automatic re-locking of the latching mechanism. The gate assembly includes a frame element for supporting the pivoting gate element and securing the gate to a doorway and/or passageway as well as latching the gate to a closed position at the frame element.

An arrangement of fenders nested together for compact storage, the fenders including two or more cylindrical bodies having a cavity accessed through the fender top, the fenders being similar shape but graduated in size such that the cavity of a larger fender tensionally receives the next smaller sized fender, the outer diameter of the smaller fender equal to the inner diameter of the larger fender cavity. A fender has a rigid inner core surrounded by a compressible shell made of foam or similar material. The inner core has attachment points for a rope or line. The smallest nesting fender in the set has a cavity diameter sized to fit a commercially-available, off-the-shelf fender. The fenders may be separated and deployed at individual locations on a vessel, or kept together and deployed as a single fender capable of absorbing a greater impact than any of the fenders individually would absorb.

A high-performance tourniquet for use in rugged environments is disclosed. The tourniquet includes a strap which surrounds an extremity to apply pressure to the extremity. The strap is coupled with a latching mechanism which is operated via a handle to tighten the tourniquet. The ends of the tourniquet are configured to couple via a buckle system enabling a buckle frame to be passed over a buckle tongue. Alternatively, a quick-release stab-lock style fastener buckle may be used to couple the ends of the tourniquet. In either case the tourniquet is designed to enable a victim to personally don the tourniquet and apply the correct pressure. A handle protruding from the outer surface of the tourniquet may be rotated to tighten the tourniquet and apply pressure by moving the tourniquet ends relative to one another. The handle may be pulled outward to quickly undo the pressure.

Systems and methods for providing pressure to an extremity

Improvements to movable closure systems which aid installability and reliability of said systems can include wheels running along the top and bottom of individual slidable elements, the wheels oriented horizontally and disposed within a track configured for receiving the horizontal wheels. The horizontal wheels reduce the vertical profile of the track-engaging portions of the slidable elements, enabling more of the slidable element to be used for glass or other aesthetically-preferable transparent materials. A track leveling system enables installers to more easily deploy and properly tune the system between floors and casings which are not perfectly flush. A compression jamb permits closure of the system via slidable elements pressing into the jamb to deflect it in order to better seal the closure comprised of the individual slidable elements. A durable hinge mechanism permits the sliding elements to rotate in order to stack the sliding elements at one end of the system.

Movable closure system

A swivel tether for attaching a camera via a cord to an object, the swivel tether including a side release buckle system having a ball joint connection that allows for 360 degree swivel functionality. This permits the camera to rotate freely without adding tension or twisting of the cord attached thereto and without causing a threaded connection between an end of the cord and the camera to become unthreaded due to rotation of the camera. The ball joint connection may be configured in the plug connection component of the side release buckle system. The side release buckle system also includes a slide lock switch operative to lock plug and socket portions of the buckle system together to prevent unintentional release of the buckle system when fastened.

A core provides a form for rolling an accessory around it. The accessory wrapped around the core may include a mat. The core includes a bottle and a container, utilizing what would otherwise be a void at the center of a rolled up mat for storage. The bottle and container may have twist-off lids which form resealable closures. The bottle and container may also couple with one another via opposing reverse threads at the bottom of each of the bottle and container. The twist-off lids may also include connection points for a carry-strap, the carry-strap including a buckle for adjusting the length of the carry-strap to make it a yoga stretching-strap. The mat includes elastic bands through grommets at an end of the mat. The bands are tensioned to secure the core when it is rolled inside the mat via the bands being wrapped around the rolled-up mat and core.

Corable containers and accessories

An adjustable binding system includes a frame and a highback pivotally coupled thereto. The highback includes a wing adjustably connected to a heel loop. The frame is adjustable via at least one length adjuster to provide adjustment of the toe to heel length of the frame so that the binding system can better accommodate varying sizes of boots. Additionally, the binding system is adjustable at the connection interface of the heel loop and the frame via forward lean adjusters to provide an adjustment of an angle of forward inclination between the highback and the frame. The binding system is further adjustable between the connection of the wing and the heel loop via a wing position adjuster to provide an adjustment of the height and medial to lateral positioning of the wing with respect to the heel loop. Each adjustment mechanism may be hand operated without the use of tools.

Snowboard binding system having multiple tool-less adjustments

A conventional (strap) binding assembly for use with a snowboard. The binding assembly comprises a frame ( ) having a base portion ( ) that receives a snowboard boot. A pair of side walls ( ) extend upwardly from either side of the base, and a high back portion ( ) extends upwardly from the rearward end of the base. An ankle strap assembly ( ) having a first ankle strap ( ) attached to one side of the frame and a second ankle strap ( ) attached to the other side of the frame, is provided, including a clasp ( ) for adjustably securing the first ankle strap to the second ankle strap. In some embodiments the first ankle strap is attached to the frame with a biased hinge assembly ( ), biasing the distal end ( ) of the strap away from the frame. In a preferred embodiment, a toe strap assembly ( ), functionally similar to the ankle strap assembly is also provided, disposed forwardly of the ankle strap assembly.
