May 20, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/133385
Inventors:
Michael Ehrenreich - South Orange NJ, US

Assignee:
Soma Cycle, Inc. - South Orange NJ
International Classification:
B62K 1/00
US Classification:
280643, 280 8705, 280278
Abstract:
A vehicle for carrying a child that is pushed along by one walking, jogging, or running, steerable with handlebars, and convertible from a push stroller to a rideable, operator-powered tricycle. The stroller converts from a stroller pushable from a back end to a tricycle by extending telescoping frame members and attaching a seat frame assembly comprising pedals, a crank, a continuous drive element, front and rear drive elements, and a first gear for driving a pair of rear wheels. Further, a child-carrying feature attaches at a front end to a frame support member and at a back end to a rotatable handlebar assembly. The stroller of the present invention also converts into a compact configuration for convenient transportation or storage by removing the seat frame assembly, retracting the telescoping frame members, and folding the handlebar assembly forward.

Assignee:
Lifetime Brands, Inc. - Westbury NY
International Classification:
B65H 75/18
US Classification:

Abstract:
A dispenser for paper, plastic, foil and other goods that are supplied on rolls or tubes includes a rotation mechanism, such as a spindle, including a plurality of bows for engaging an inner surface of a roll. The spindle rotates about an end cap assembly. A mechanism provides resistance against spindle rotation about the end cap assembly. The end cap assembly is configured with an extending first shaft, aligned with an axis of rotation of the spindle, used to hang one end of the dispenser from a bracket. The dispenser further includes a spring loaded end cap including an extending second shaft, also aligned with an axis of rotation of the spindle, used to hang another end of the dispenser from the bracket. From the end cap assembly, a radially extending projection is provided. The projection includes a stop knob which functions to engage the bracket from the dispenser is hung and prevent the end cap assembly from rotating about the first and second shafts.
