Ground Traction System
My all-season ATV track conversion kits convert the rear ATV tires to a tank-like tread system. The track system provides greater contact with the ground, increasing stability and reducing the chance of the ATV from flipping back onto the rider, which may result in serious injuries. The tracks allow the ATV to better maneuver on all surfaces where traditional tires would get stuck or slip (e.g. sand, snow, mud). In addition to the track system, a front end tire to snow ski conversion kit is added. The ski kits allow the ATV to be used during the winter months ...

A better mouse trap (or drill chuck)
My name is Troy McCurry.I was a Tool Designer for the Jacobs Manufacturing Co. from 1993 thru 1998. In 1998 Jacobs Manufacturing Co. moved all production off-shore. 300 American jobs left as well.I can only assume this was impacted by the cost of producing a drill chuck in the USA and competing with other companies manufacturing drill chucks off-shore.
Now ask yourself what if it was not that way?
Now we have the “Little Mac” style of Power drill chucks. This product is covered under patent # 6,637,756. From the commonality of parts to the compact styling and reliability ...

A New Design to the Conventional Wind Turbine
Our reliance on fossil fuels has been a problem for generations and in the near future we will see a global crisis resulting from this dependence. The barriers to our society moving beyond fossil fuels to renewable sources of energy include both the cost and the inefficiency of the existing renewable energy systems. The ideas that I am presenting will address these issues.
Wind farms in their current incarnation are effective in only one direction and they are massive in size. To improve the efficiency of the conventional wind turbines, I propose a closed design that incorporates a system ...
Low Current High Torque Motor
One of the biggest problems with any device that needs an electric motor is the faster a motor turns and the more torque that is required, the more current and/or voltage is required to run it which limits the time a motor can run from a stored energy source like a battery. My motor modification enables a motor to run at variable speeds and produce a high torque while maintaining a fixed current and voltage.
By extending the time a motor can run from a battery will enable any device needing a motor to run with fewer battery changes ...
INCA Artificial Gravity and Stealth Cloaks
The Inter - Nodal Connector Architecture [INCA] (REG.U.S.PAT.OFF. #6,869,246) provides a Universal, one-piece-part dynamic assembly system capable of constructing complex frameworks of any kind which can then be completely collapsed to a fraction of their original volumes, moved to remote locations, and then instantly deploy themselves into their original framework/shapes. While not self-assembling , these systems are self-deploying; creating the possibility of 'pop-up' shelters of all kinds. As these INCA structures are dynamic and capable of shifting shape and loads, they will provide rapid-deployment earthquake-proof shelters for emergency and military field use.Recent preliminary structural analysis indicates INCA Domes will ...

Valved two stroke engine with extended expansion
This proposal relates to conceptual design of "valved two stroke engine with extended expansion". In a four stroke engine, power stroke occurs once in a two rotation whereas in a two stroke power stroke occurs once in each rotation. Theoretically a two stroke engine produces double the power of four stroke engine .Due to absence of valves in 2 stroke engine, some part of the fresh charge inducted leaves out through exhaust .This causes loss of mileage and Hydrocarbon emission .The proposed engine has Transfer valve which prevents such carry over and at the same time power stroke occurs ...
"Leak Free" Constant Seating Stress Flange Gasket
Traditional pressure-boundary piping gaskets, such as pipe flanges and valve body-to-bonnet joints, can leak due to many factors. Chief among these are (i) improper initial gasket seating stress (GSS) sufficient to form a seal and (ii) failure to maintain the initial GSS in-service due to creep relaxation of the gasket sealing material over time.
GSS is a function of the design pressure for the system. To obtain the desired GSS, the required torque on the closure fasteners, fastener number and diameter, the 'nut' or 'K' factor pertaining to various factors including friction, are all taken into consideration. This produces ...
