Supported golf bag

A golf bag is provided with a pair of legs hinged at a rigid collar at the upper extremity of the bag. The lower end of the bag is closed by a base member that defines a flat, planar sole perpendicular to the longitudinal orientation of the bag, and also an upwardly inclined heel. An actuation plate is attached by a leaf hinge connection to the base member at the transition between the sole and heel. Knuckles on the base member and actuation plate are interleaved with each other across the width of the base member. The actuation plate protrudes outwardly beyond the body portion of the bag a distance of at least one inch. A spring wire spreader rod has a central, bight portion that is captured by a spreader hinge bracket located at the upper, outboard edge of the actuation plate. The wire spreader rod is configured with segments oriented at obtuse and reflex angles to provide improved leverage in deploying the legs. The interleaved knuckle hinge connection prevents the actuation plate from binding relative to the base member. The outward protrusion of the actuation plate reduces the torque required to deploy the legs and also provides greater stability for supporting the bag in an upright disposition.

Pipette Tip Loading and Unloading Mechanism for Single Row Multichannel Pipettors

InactiveUS20170246624A1Simple methodPrecise and accurate pipetting operationBurettes/pipettesSupporting apparatusPipetteStress injury
A mechanism that provides an improved method of loading and unloading a row of disposable pipette tips onto a handheld multichannel pipettor. A single button fur tip load and unload operations is simpler than the current method of using a separate mechanism for ejecting the tips. The tips are configured in a rigid collar which is held by a clamp on the pipettor. An upward force combined with a sealing gasket that mates with the top of the pipette tips is used to provide the seal between the tips and the pipettor. This eliminates the requirement to “press downward” with excessive force in order to force the pipette tips onto a protruding sealing part. The loading and unloading of tips will be more reliable and repeatable, this providing better pipetting results. The low forces of the loading and unloading operations reduce the chance of repetitive stress injury for the operator.
