Storage Apparatus With Magnetic Contents Retention Structure

US Patent:
2011018, Jul 28, 2011
Filed:
Jan 25, 2011
Appl. No.:
12/931103
Inventors:
Adam E. Slank - Austin TX, US
International Classification:
F42B 39/00
US Classification:
206 3
Abstract:
An ammunition magazine holding apparatus comprises a magazine holder and a magazine retention strap. The ammunition magazine holding apparatus has a cavity therein defining an upper end portion thereof and a lower end portion thereof. A first magnet element is attached to the magazine holder adjacent to the upper end portion of the cavity. A first configuration of interlock structure extends from a surface of the magazine holder. The magazine retention strap has a second magnetic element at a first end portion thereof and a second configuration of interlock structure at a second end portion thereof. The first configuration interlock structure is mechanically engaged with and separable from the first configuration interlock structure. The second magnetic element is magnetically engagable with the first magnetic element.

Method For Converting A Mechanical Engagement Interface To A Magnetic Engagement Interface

US Patent:
8510920, Aug 20, 2013
Filed:
Aug 3, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/566036
Inventors:
Adam E. Slank - Austin TX, US
International Classification:
H01F 7/02, A44B 99/00
US Classification:
24306, 24303
Abstract:
An interface system for hook and loop engagement structures includes a first interface patch and a second interface patch. The first interface patch has a first major surface and a second major surface opposite the first major surface thereof. Hook engagement structures extend from the first major surface of the first interface patch. A first magnetic element is embedded within the first interface patch between said first and second major surfaces thereof. The second interface patch has a first major surface and a second major surface opposite the first major surface thereof. Loop engagement structures extend from the first major surface of the second interface patch. A second magnetic element is embedded within the second interface patch between said first and second major surfaces thereof.

Strap Assembly With Quick Release Arrangement

US Patent:
8074326, Dec 13, 2011
Filed:
Jan 12, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/319802
Inventors:
Adam Slank - Austin TX, US
International Classification:
A44B 1/04, A44B 11/00, A44B 11/25, A44B 17/00, B68B 5/00
US Classification:
24165, 24664, 2457311, 24DIG 51, 24606, 119776, 244151 A, 244151 B
Abstract:
A strap assembly comprises an attachment member structure includes a main body and a plurality of attachment members. A first end portion of the main body is pivotable with respect to a second end portion thereof. Attachment members are connected to the main body at its opposing ends. A clasping device attached to the main body is engagable with one of the attachment members when a control portion of the clasping device is in a first position and selectively disengagable therefrom when a control portion of the clasping device is sufficiently displaced. A control structure is attached to the control portion of the clasping device such that sufficient displacement of the control structure with respect to the clasping device causes sufficient displacement of the control portion. A storage structure integral with the main body includes a passage configured for receiving at least a portion of the control structure therein.

Quick-Release Animals Muzzle

US Patent:
2010017, Jul 15, 2010
Filed:
Jan 12, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/319803
Inventors:
Adam Slank - Austin TX, US
International Classification:
A01K 25/00
US Classification:
119831
Abstract:
An animal muzzle has a retention strap, an interlock member attached to a first end portion of the retention strap, and a muzzle body attached to a second end portion of the retention strap. The muzzle body includes two longitudinally extending edge portions and an interlock structure adjacent each of the edge portions. The interlock structures are configured for having the interlock member simultaneously engaged therewith. The interlock structures are longitudinally offset from each other such that they are longitudinally adjacent to each other in a manner allowing the interlock member to be slideable engaged therewith when the muzzle body is in a snout-encompassing configuration. The muzzle body is maintained in the snout-encompassing configuration when the interlock member is engaged with the interlock structures. The muzzle body automatically transitions to a non-constraining configuration when the interlock member is disengaged from the interlock structures.

Garments With Air Circulation Inducing Arrangement

US Patent:
2013017, Jul 11, 2013
Filed:
Jan 9, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/345897
Inventors:
Adam E. Slank - Austin TX, US
International Classification:
A41D 1/06, A41D 1/00
US Classification:
2 69, 2227
Abstract:
A garment worn over a portion of a body of a wearer comprises a garment wall and an airflow inducer. The garment wall has a first garment wall airflow passage extending therethrough. The airflow inducer is attached to an exterior surface of the garment wall over the first garment wall airflow passage such that the airflow inducer encompasses the first garment wall airflow passage. The airflow inducer and the garment wall jointly define an air chamber. The first garment wall airflow passage is exposed within the air chamber. The airflow inducer is deformable such that the air chamber has a volume dependent upon a state of deformation of the airflow inducer. An airflow passage of the inducer provides for airflow between the air chamber and an ambient environment surrounding the garment.
