摘要： A reacher assembly (20) combines a single shaft (22) presenting a guideway (30) and supporting a handle (40). A trigger (44) is spaced from the handle (40) and is connected to a closeable jaw (50) by a cable (56) disposed in the guideway (30). A snare (66) presents a loop controlled by a slide (72) slidably supported in a slot (74) in the shaft (22) with the snare (66) and the cable (56) extending in parallel and side by side relationship with one another in the guideway (30) of the shaft (22) for movement relative to each other. A shoehorn (60) is slideably supported by a track (58) on the shaft (22). An incapacitated person may carry only one assembly (20) to perform multiple tasks.

摘要： Vapor wake detection is a highly advantageous method and system for detecting explosives and other illicit substances. With vapor wake detection, a canine and a handler are used; however, unlike other detection schemes, the canine leads the handler. After the handler positions the canine in a desired location, the canine detects scents in the air that come to the canine. When the canine detects a trained scent, the canine leads the handler to or follows behind the carrier of the item with the scent. Once the carrier is identified by the handler, the proper personnel are contacted. To implement vapor wake detection effectively, specific rigorous training is utilized.

摘要： A method and system is provided that controls pet access to various different locations and/or objects. In a preferred embodiment, the present invention provides an automated system whereby pets wearing an ID tag are allowed access to various locations and/or objects, such as food contained within a feeder dish for example, while a sensor system, responding to the presence of other animals or people, causes the device to close preventing unauthorized access thereto. The feeder further includes one or more sensors using ultrasonic, infrared technology or both in combination for the identification of both tagged and non-tagged animals or children. Further embodiments employ the system to control access to litter boxes, pet toys, pet watering systems, pet gate access, pet containment systems or pet doors.
