A standing pipe faucet assembly manufactured by a process separately manufacturing a faucet body and a separate body to simplify the process and lower its manufacturing cost effectively includes a faucet body made of a hollow copper pillar, a blocking rim formed at the top of the faucet body for fixing a separate body, an outlet pipe connected to the faucet body, a chamber disposed at the separate body made of a solid copper pillar for installing a water mixing valve, and a lateral hole groove c...

A manually operable standing wheelchair includes an actuator for moving an occupant from a sitting position to a standing position. The manually operable standing wheelchair has a lifting mechanism including a ratchet, cable, pulley, and telescopic tubes, which the occupant may manually operate to shift from the sitting position to the standing position. There is also a drive system to enable the occupant to manually move himself or herself in and the wheelchair from the sitting position to the ...

A standing wave barrier for at least one radio frequency cable having a cable axis has at least one metallic base web that proceeds parallel to the cable axis from a first web end to a second web end. The web ends are coupled to one another in terms of radio frequency terms via a capacitance, so that the base web and the capacitance together form a radio frequency resonant oscillator circuit. The base web and the capacitance are situated in one of two half-shells that can be connected to one ano...

A combinative standing fan includes a vertical shaft fan, a first, and a second tubular cover. The first and the second tubular cover respectively consist of a front half cover and a rear half cove. The front half covers of the two tubular covers are provided with plural wind inlets, and the rear half covers of them are provided with plural wind outlets. The first tubular cover has a guide groove in an upper end, and the second tubular cover has a bottom edge at the bottom to fit with the guide ...

The present invention relates generally to exercising equipment, and more particularly, to an improved multi-use weight lifting apparatus. The present weight lifting apparatus comprises a frame (12), a vertical guide member (52), at least one horizontal guide member (46), a weight bearing bar (60), and a safety catch mechanism (70). This weight lifting apparatus allows a weight lifter to perform exercise with vertical and horizontal ranges of motion that simulate the natural motions of using fre...

A multi-ribbed, standing seam structural roof panel with double ribs which can be attached directly to building framing to create a structural rated building panel with shear values which also serves as waterproofing panel.

A device to aid a person to stand up from a sitting position on a chair or the seat of a water closet is provided with a base panel that is cut out to interfit around the base of the water closet or support and hold an easy chair. Horizontal stop members in the form of a vertical hole through a block are attached on the top of the panel to receive the bottom ends of chair legs sitting on the top of the base panel. Two members, one on each side of the chair, inclined upwardly past the front of th...

An invalid assistance device in which a supported, locked, and guided cable or other flexible line is used to stabilize an invalid in the range of desired vertical positions from sitting to standing while a single attendant can work with the invalid, thus stabilized. Also taught by the present invention is a portable apparatus in which a collapsible tripod is used to mount and support the stabilizing apparatus.

A compressor for compression-evaporation cooling systems, which requires no moving parts. A gaseous refrigerant inside a chamber is acoustically compressed and conveyed by means of a standing acoustic wave which is set up in the gaseous refrigerant. This standing acoustic wave can be driven either by a transducer, or by direct exposure of the gas to microwave and infrared sources, including solar energy. Input and output ports arranged along the chamber provide for the intake and discharge of th...

The present invention features a device to facilitate female urination from a standing position. A collapsible structure is readily expanded by pressing on two opposing edges. Once expanded, the device is held in its open state by a unique locking mechanism. Because a user does not need to exert continuous pressure on the device to keep it in an open, operable state, it is easier to use than other similar devices. The device may be cleaned, collapsed and stored for re-use or may be supplied as a...
