20110119940 | Inclinometer - An inclinometer configured to be coupled to a structure and measure an angle of inclination of the structure with respect to a reference plane comprises a first layer, a second layer, and an indicator. The first layer includes a transparent portion and a scale representing angles located proximate to the transparent portion. The second layer includes an opening that defines a path. The first layer is coupled to a first side of the second layer such that the transparent portion extends along the path. The indicator is movably disposed in the path. The indicator moves along the path as the structure moves between a first orientation and a second orientation with respect to the reference plane. The indicator cooperates with the scale to indicate an angle of inclination of the structure with respect to the reference plane. | 05-26-2011 |
20120255188 | HOOK POSE DETECTING EQUIPMENT AND CRANE - A hook pose detecting equipment and a crane with the hook pose detecting equipment, in which the hook pose detecting equipment comprises an angle measuring apparatus for obtaining the angle between an axis in a second coordinate system and the corresponding axis in a first coordinate system, an acceleration measuring meter for obtaining the acceleration of the hook in a predetermined direction, a processor for building the first coordinate system and the second coordinate system, and an output equipment. The first coordinate system is relatively fixed with a predetermined location, and the second coordinate system is relatively fixed with the hook. The processor obtains the pose parameters of the hook in the first coordinate system according to the angle obtained by the angle measuring apparatus and the acceleration obtained by the acceleration measuring meter. The operator is able to take appropriate hook-stabilizing measures according to the pose parameters, and thus the efficiency of lifting work is increased. | 10-11-2012 |
20120266469 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR ARRANGING A DISPLAY - A device and method for arranging a display allows for the easy installation of a display in a home entertainment system. The flexibility of modern home entertainment/theater systems that include a digital display device permits many different installation options. Thus, the invention facilitates the installation of such a display by aligning a viewing screen with an image from a projection display device on both a horizontal axis and a vertical axis. | 10-25-2012 |
20120272538 | METHODS AND ARRANGEMENTS FOR RAPID TRIM ADJUSTMENT - Methods and arrangements to rapidly adjust the trim of a watercraft are disclosed. More specifically, embodiments comprise a sensor to quickly detect changes in the trim angle of a watercraft and a driver adapted to effect rapid changes in the trim angle. For example, many embodiments include large hydraulic pumps and hydraulic connections to adjust the angle of a trim adjuster such as the angle of trim tabs, an outboard motor, or a stern drive. Some embodiments implement high torque electric motors or high capacity pneumatic systems. The drivers may, for example, effect changes in the angle of the trim adjuster within two seconds. In one embodiment, the driver may effect a change in the trim angle within one second or less. | 11-01-2012 |
20150353329 | Detection, monitoring device of the hook angle and its crane - The present invention provides with a detection and monitoring device of the hook angle and its crane relating to the crane field, wherein between the movable pulley of the lifting pulley assembly of the crane and the hook or between the fixed pulley and the fixed point of the lifting pulley assembly of cranes is cascaded a part, it meets that the plane of the platform fixed on the part is a horizontal plane when the hook angle being 0 degree, so that the action line of the lifting force of the lifting pulley assembly via the hook is perpendicular to the plane of the platform under the different angles of the hook; fixedly install a platform on the part; and provided with the angle measuring instrument on the platform plane. The device provided by the present invention can be used for all types of cranes. | 12-10-2015 |
20160097639 | SHOE MOUNTED GRADIOMETER TOOL AND METHOD OF ADJUSTMENT - There is disclosed a shoe mounted gradiometer tool. The tool includes an enclosed housing having a convex interior base and a transparent top. A ball is disposed within the enclosed housing. The ball is sized and shaped to roll on the convex interior base. There is a mounting piece connected to the enclosed housing for securing the enclosed housing to an exterior surface of a shoe. The position of the shoe mounted gradiometer tool may be adjusted by placing a fastener through a fastener-receiving hole on the mounting piece. The fastener is loosely connected to a shoe. The orientation of the housing is adjusted by pivoting the housing around the fastener-receiving hole so that a marked level position of the tool corresponds to the lowest position of the convex interior base. The mounting piece is then mounted fixedly to the shoe. | 04-07-2016 |

20080222906 | Traditional shaving razor or electrical shaving and trimming device with integrated spirit level or bubble level - This device integrates a “Spirit Level” or “Bubble Level” with a traditional shaving device such as a non-electrically powered shaving razor, or electrically powered razor or trimming device. The integration of a “Spirit Level” or “Bubble Level” with a shaving or trimming device allows for accurate, straight, and level, shaving, cutting, or trimming of facial hair, hair growing from the scalp, or any other hair growing from the body. By using the “Sprit Level” or “Bubble Level” as a guide, the user is able to gauge the exact angle at which he or she is cutting, shaving, or trimming. | 09-18-2008 |
