Adjustable alarm device for sliding doors and windows
An adjustable alarm device for windows and doors is installed between the door or window frame and the door or window sash. The longitudinal axis of the alarm device is preferably horizontal. When engaged, movement of the door or window in an open direction will activate the alarm. The body of the alarm device is elongate, tubular and telescoping. The body comprises an outer tube that receives an inner tube. The body of the alarm device may be locked in an extended position by way of a cam mounted on the inner tube and positioned within the body so that when the inner and outer tubes of the body are twisted about their longitudinal axis, the cam body will engage the inner surface of the outer tube in a releasable frictional locking engagement. The alarm device is coupled to one end of the inner tube.

Automatic fluid exchanger
InactiveUS20050166993A1Preventing air infusionEffective blockingLiquid fillingPackaging by pressurising/gasifyingFluid controlPositive pressure
A fluid exchanger for servicing the fluid circuits of vehicular power steering systems and other fluid circulating or hydraulic circuits. The fluid exchanger uses a float operated fluid control valve to harness fluid pressure provided by a pump of an accessed hydraulic circuit. The fluid control valve uses both negative and positive pressure of the circuit's pump to control fluid flow patterns. The float and fluid control valve are matched to be either mechanical / hydraulic or electrical / hydraulic in design. If the exchanger is provided with a mechanically operated fluid control valve, a mechanical float is provided in the exchanger's fresh fluid reservoir and is directly connected to the valve slide of the fluid control valve. If the exchanger is provided with an electric solenoid operated fluid control valve, a float operated electrical switch is provided in the exchanger's fresh fluid reservoir and is wired to control the solenoid of the valve.

Accessory for nebulizer inhaler system
An accessory for an inhaler unit may be retrofit into a conventional nebulizer system having a manifold or an inlet air tube. The accessory includes a one-way air valve that closes except when air is being inhaled. The one-way valve closes to prevent exhaled air / gas from flowing through the manifold and inlet air tube and out to the surrounding atmosphere. Thus, exhaled air / gas does not flow out of the system and does not carry medicine with it, greatly reducing medicine waste. Because the preferred inhaler system does not include any exhale / exhaust valve or any other outlet for exhaled air / gas, the user may loosen his lips, for example, to exhale. The accessory may be provided simply as a single one-way valve retrofit into an existing air tube of a conventional nebulizer system, as an air tube-valve combination that may be attached to a nebulizer system manifold, or as original equipment manufacture (OEM) for a nebulizer system.

InactiveUS20040237995A1Low costSave the hassleEar treatmentPower operated devicesDental flossingTongue cleaning
An all-in-one toothbrush that can be used at home or on the go for complete dental hygiene. Though it is the size of a regular toothbrush, it has added features for further benefits. The hollow handle conceals the refillable toothpaste, the dental floss and the tongue cleaner and the self adhering plastic cap covering the head of the toothbrush guarantees the bristle stay in shape and prevents the toothpaste from crusting. The toothbrush is not only compact and convenient because all the essential elements are housed within, but the simple exchanging of only the toothbrush head allows for use by additional users. This interchangeability and the refillable feature also make it both economically rewarding and environment friendly.
